“ Good food and portion sizes with an authentic Szechuan taste. Ambiance is fun and feels like you're immersed within the culture. Will return ”
“ I ordered take-out, so I don't know what the inside/atmosphere of the restaurant was like. I got the Seafood Dry Pot. It had scallops, squid, fish, and 'jumbo' shrimp in it (which was honestly more medium-sized than jumbo) with lots of vegetables and peppers. My food came hot and my request for wood-ear mushrooms and no deep-fry was honored, so I think that the service is very nice. ”
“ Best spot for some authentic Chinese food! They have an extensive menu with tons of styles, ranging from classic Szechuan to Chinese-American dishes, and the spice levels of some dishes are amazing for spice lovers! I've been here multiple times and always look forward to trying new dishes. Some of my favorites are the crispy chicken and cumin lamb. The restaurant is in a plaza on park ave and provides 2 hours of free parking when you check in. Service is nice and friendly, although they can get pretty busy dealing with takeout orders as well. The decor and overall vibe of this place is upscale and authentic. ”
“ Great place overall! Great atmosphere! Great food! Reservations are iffy. Parking is iffy. Make if you use the pay lot you pay for EXTRA TIME BC YOU WILL GET TOWED and fast! Anyway, I highly recommend you celebrate Chinese new year here with their special menu. Yum yum ”
“ We reserve this place for when I'm craving a complex, spicy beef broth. This time we took our family here and they really loved the authentic Chinese dishes. Szechuan pepper is known for its citrus-like flavor with a tingling, numbing sensation. And it doesn't really hit your tastebuds with hot spice, either, which I think is great because I feel like I can taste the flavors in the food better. Some of the dishes I recommend: Schezuan beef soup and the clay pot. The beef is amazingly tender and full of flavor. In the beef soup, I only wish there was more beef chunks. The clay pot, however, did have a generous amount of beef. Either way, it was very tasty. The soup is something I almost always order. It definitely hits the spot when you're recovering from a cold. Service is good, not overly friendly servers, but they get the job done and always on point. The outside of the building is very plain, and unsuspecting. Walk inside and you'll be transported to a luxurious dining area with comfortable booths and a nice ambiance to match the quality of the food. ”
“ I went for lunch. The place has an unassuming facade, yet inside it has a very pleasant decor and a Golden Throne, worthy of an Emperor/Empress. I chose the special lunch L16- Shredded Pork w/ Peppers & Spring Roll, Rice; Shu Mai Dumplings; Jasmine Tea Bubble. The pork dish was very tasty. I devoured it pretty quickly. The Spring Roll (vegetable) crispy came w/ a sweet & sour sauce. Good The dumplings came last; 4 small shrimp dumplings. They were full of shrimp, w/a dipping Soy Sauce. The Jasmine Milk Tea needed more ice, refreshing. I took it home and placed it in the freezer for 1/2 hours. Perfect. Service was attentive. I will be back. ”
“ Enjoyed my first experience at Szechuan celebrating the lunar new year with some fellow yelpers. Huge shout out to Jenny R for planning everything!! We sat in a super cute booth that fit us six perfectly, so private and cozy. They offered a special menu, we ordered six items from that and a few regular items. Special menu: Stir fried twin lobster with ginger and scallions Oil and shallot steamed abalone Dungeness crab in Szechuan style Steamed sea bass Braised sea cucumber with scallions Steamed garlic shrimp w vermicelli Reg menu: Wontons in spicy chili sauce Duck with veggies Dried sautéed string beans We shared all plates, family style Tried some new items I would normally not order, the duck and wontons were ridiculously amazing! We all ate like queens and I had the best time with these girls! ”
