""Was"" because it's closed. What a shame! Real Szechuan cuisine (don't be fooled by those other fancy Chinese restaurants claim to be Szechuan cuisine. If your tongue wouldn't feel numb, you don't feel like to drink a ton of water after the super spicy taste, then the food is just made as ""western"" style Chinese"") served in the wrong neighborhood. I had been to Szechuan province few times in the past, and I have to tell you, there are few places I know in New York served the real Szechuan cuisine, and Camellia was the only place outside of the city. In fact, the food was so authentic that I knew from the first visit that they will eventually close down - they were preaching to the wrong choir!!!
Pros: Authentic Chinese food
Cons: Too authentic to the non-asian resident
