Great sushi, tasty hot dishes, nice atmosphere, and decent prices, but the service is spotty. Don't expect to get to of there quickly, and you'll enjoy the trip.

Without a lot of parking in the area ?? It's across the street from on of the biggest freakin' municipal lots in the TOWNSHIP !! Anyway, parking aside, I really LOVE Auspicious, though their "spicy" dishes are never really hot enough, their stuff is well-prepared, with fresh ingredients and the menu is a LOT more interesting than what we know as "classic" Chinese. Mango chicken is always a treat, as is their Wu Tangerine beef. The Peking duck roll app is a singular treat. The "create your own stir-fry" lets you call the shots from a nice list of ingredients and sauces.

Flavors are pretty subtle (even if you ask for extra spicy) but the variety, excellent service and reasonable prices make it my "go-to" Chinese on the Main Line. The atmosphere is also several cuts above your average Chinese place, so while it's not quite Yang Ming, you aren't paying "Yank Me" prices either. Well worth trying.
