Food is consistently great. I really do love their egg foo young. Every dish I have had though has been great, nothing is over breaded or over sauced. The hot and sour soup is my go to and the shrimp fried rice is just the right amount of fried. Portions are great as well if you're ordering take out.

The dumplings in chili oil is one of my favs! But everything we've ever ordered has been great! Two thumbs up for the stir fried green beans as well!

Szechuan Cuisine is awesome for Chinese. Feels like a hole in a wall spot, the dining area feels casual and the service is prompt and cordial. They have a lunch menu that comes with soup and an egg roll which is wonderful. I recommend coming then if you want to save a bit but we get a few dishes and share them and it's spectacular. The flavors are great and the portions sizes are good. Overall a really great experience and definitely one of my go-to Chinese spots over in our area. I recommend it!

I was intrigued to go somewhere new. This restaurant doesn't really present well upon arrival, i.e, ZERO curb appeal. Undaunted by aforementioned curb appeal, I walked in and was eagerly greeted by an employee guarding the cash register. This soft-spoken gentleman allowed me to choose my seat, which was pretty easy since he and I were the only people in the place, sans the kitchen cooks. The menu was abundant, and I quickly descended upon a spicy favorite: General Tso Chicken and a frosty beeeeeeer. (Insert Homer Simpson voice) My meal arrived within mear minutes... like 4 or 5 minutes. Oh my... either crazy fast or crazy pre-prepared. Oh well, I dumped my rice bowl on the plate and scooped my General Tso over the rice. I was half expecting freezer burned chicken fresh from the microwave however, I was pleasantly surprised by how it tasted. It may have been previously prepared, but probably not because it tasted much better than expected. Halfway thru the meal, the soft-spoken guy asked if I would like more rice (more rice??) Heck yeah!! Like Flash, he reappeared before I realized he left and left another cup of rice for me, the hungry stranger. I dumped the rice over the remaining main course, planning on taking it home for tomorrow (yeah, right), and before I knew it, that too was gone. Sipping the remaining few ounces of beeeeeer (Homer) I began to scribe my review of tonight's dinner. So, as always, the question of the day: will I come back?? YES, eager to try another dinner from the generous menu!

The food has always been great! The only problem is that the soup dumplings are always broken so there is no broth inside. Otherwise, everything we've ever gotten has been exceptional. We usually order takeout and it's always been very easy. The food is better than the normal chains that you find.

Szechuan cuisine has amazing food. Everything we have had from here is packed with flavor. The place is clean and family owned. The dumplings, shrimp with vegetables and the star of the show is always their spicy chicken wings!! They are crunchy and I don't know what they flavor them with but it's AMAZING! They are served with chilies and chunks of garlic.. it's all eaten! Lol expect a bit of a wait as I believe it's just mom and son running the show but they're friendly and food is consistently great!

This place should be packed for lunch! The man who runs the restaurant is very attentive to his customers. Very good lunch specials.

I'm going to go ahead and give them five stars because this is probably the best authentic Szechuan food that we can find west of the 17. Their flavours are a little dumbed-down to make them more palatable for the locals, but it still scratches the itch. Their soup dumplings are good but they seem to fall apart really easily. Their chongqing chicken has mala, but they go easy on the Szechuan peppercorns because they're afraid of scaring off old Glendalians. Their twice-cooked pork is good- I prefer leeks and scallions but they put green bell peppers in it which other people probably like more, but whatever. This place is really good, and like I said it's probably the best that we'll get out this way.
