Update: manager contacted us and there was a mix up on the order. She was very quick to address and resolve my issue. We come to this place once a month for take out usually either the medium or small size is our go to (great for home hot pot). Today we ordered a medium pot and the size was clearly smaller than usual. After spending a few minutes talking to the staff who reassured us this was medium so we just left. Then we get home, as we literally ordered a medium pot last week, this was clearly smaller than what we had last week. We even took out a container ordered a while ago for small which is the exact same size as the one we got today which is supposed to be a medium. It even feels lighter.... I guess this is shrink-flation? But seriously, it's only been a week.... read more

My friends have been asking me to go to B2J for a while, but I've been avoiding it because sauerkraut fish soup sounded weird to me and it seemed expensive. I'm glad that I finally tried it though. My favorite part about this place was all the side dishes. They were all very high-quality and delicious. It was the first time I tried 1000 year-old egg. The presentation was beautiful and the Szechuan added a nice kick to it. The fried pork belly was crispy outside and still juicy inside. The fried bean curd was perhaps my favorite; a lightly breaded crispy exterior with a delicately soft interior. When you order the fish soup, you get to choose additional ingredients to add inside. We picked little mushrooms, wide noodles, and green leafy veg. The mushrooms were so small that they kind of got lost in the soup so I probably wouldn't recommend those. However, the wide noodles were excellent with a nice chewy texture. The soup itself was sour but not as sour as I was expecting, which was a pleasant surprise. Next time I would like to try the combination, fish and beef soup. The homemade milk mochi was amazing. You cannot skip this dessert. 5-stars. The four of us split the soup for three and it ended up being around $30 per person. This was for lunch and we were very full afterwards. read more

As much as I do enjoy the fish soup, the real gem here are the spicy sour fern starch noodles. They are just so incredibly good I would come here just for these!! I ordered this delivery and it was packaged amazingly well! read more

As much as I love the fish soup, the fern noodles is the real gem here! They are perfectly chewy and full of flavor

Good portions and delicious, from the main dish to all the side dishes. Very satisfying experience.

I'm going to come out and say it... MSG, lots and lots of MSG... I'm ok with using MSG in food but they use so much of it here that it leaves a weird after taste on my tongue... The side dishes were ok (yes, MSG here too) but the main thing, the fish & beef soup, was not good. The broth doesn't really have any flavor except salty... We ordered the Combo for 2 and they do give you a lot of food. I just can't recommend this restaurant... read more

Really good spot for Chinese pickled fish! The fish was fresh and tender, and the soup had a great sour and spicy flavor without being too overwhelming. Portions were pretty generous and everything tasted fresh. Definitely a place I'd come back to when I'm craving suancai fish! read more

B2J Fish Soup - Szechuan Near Me - Plano, Texas

Honestly I've never had this dish before and it was really good. Even though the description for the signature spicy and sour flavor soup says spicy and sour, the taste is pretty mild. Not too sour or spicy just in between. It reminds of the Vietnamese mustard green soup. Definitely recommend getting the combo set with two sides and two add ons. The pork belly was crispy and the Chinese doughnut absorbed the delicious broth. Service was super fast and she was super nice. Place was pretty clean. Definitely recommend trying out this place if you are into dishes like these. read more

Great customer service and location. Everything was served very fast and the restaurant itself was very clean.

B2J is a classic suancai fish soup from Guangzhou , the food capital of Canton. The authentic saurkraut taste from fermented mustard greens with sichuan pepper makes it authentic and chopstick licking good. The other great addition is the soup is paired with fried doughnut. Its a must if you are already seating down. You can add to the soup lotus root, bok choy, a choy and many other vegetable selection. The soup comes in classic sour and spicy taste or you can go extra spicy option if you are from mainland. Their cucumber salad is also amazing, its served with spicy vinegar / soy sauce/ fish sauce. Ample free parking in this mall complex which is predominately surrounded by Korean food, Chinese food and Taiwanese bubble tea joints. Authentic taste, locally sourced, ambiance is cool and casual, service is fantastic. Be early, especially weekends they get busy. read more

This one was a bit of a cultural experience for this Small town Indiana-born guy. Admittedly I wasn't sure if I'd like fish soup like this, but based on the strong ratings (and my wife's approval), I figured we could give it a try. It is as you might expect - the menu is mostly variations of giant bowls of fish-flavored soup. Some spicy, some not, some with various inclusions. The soup had a lot of interesting flavors to it, and I enjoyed it. We got the special for two, and the bowl was huge (they offer bigger too). Service was very friendly and helpful. Overall a nice experience, and I think it would be best on a colder day. If you like fish soup, or are willing to give it a shot, this is a solid choice. read more

Service: Our waitress (presumably manager/owner) was really kind! She came over to show us the menu since it was our first time here and made some recommendations. She checked in on us frequently and gave water refills. Ambiance: The restaurant is clean, but very small. I feel like a group of 6 next to us was cutting it close! They had to put several tables together. I recommend this place to groups no larger than 6, otherwise, you might need to wait for a table if they do not have enough to put together to accommodate. Food: We ordered the 2 person combo and WOW, it was a lot of food! We tried our best to finish it, but I think we would have had one more portion enough for another person. Everything was so good! We chose the signature broth, and it was so flavorful! read more

Great food, though the service was just okay. They are definitely not stingy with the appetizer portions, and the original flavor soup tasted great (though it could use a little more fish and clear noodles). Our server didn't check on us during the meal, and we had to flag them down just to get the bill. Despite the service, the food is good enough that we will be back for sure. read more

B2J Fish Soup in Plano completely surprised me! I came in for the soup but ended up loving everything else just as much. FOOD: * Crispy Pork: Absolute must-order! Perfect crunch on the outside, juicy and flavorful inside. Not greasy at all--dangerously addicting. * The Doughnut (You Tiao): Light, airy, and golden. Perfect for dipping in the broth. It soaks up all that savory flavor without getting soggy too fast. * Cucumber Salad: Refreshing, crisp, slightly tangy with the perfect hint of garlic and chili. It balances out the richness of the pork and soup beautifully. * Fish Soup: Clean, comforting broth with great depth. Not overly fishy--very well done. SERVICE: Staff was friendly, attentive, and quick. They explained the menu, checked in often without being annoying, and the food came out fast and fresh. AMBIANCE: Clean, modern, and cozy. Casual enough to feel comfortable, but still feels like a place you could bring friends or family. The vibe is calm and relaxing--not loud like a typical busy restaurant. Overall: Great food, great service, great atmosphere. The crispy pork, doughnut, and cucumber salad alone make it worth the visit--but together with the fish soup? Unbeatable combo. One of the best comfort meals in Plano! read more

UPDATE: had to update my review to 3 stars for poor service. We were the only ones in the restaurant and our waitress never came by to check on our table or fill our waters. She acted like we were bothering her when we had to constantly flag her down. I don't know what happened to the previous waitress but this ruined our experience and we likely won't be back for a while. Food was still good though Great restaurant for a very unique soup experience. Perfect amount of spicy and sour. The sides are great too. I definitely recommend the chicken wings read more

if you're looking for intense flavors, you've come to the right place. the chinese pickled veggies along with the fish are flavor intense. We ended up getting a small combo that feeds two people for about 60 bucks, and it was a lot of food. we got one bowl of fish with two toppings (a-choy root and lotus root), along with two side orders dished and two bowl of rice. for the side orders, we got one black fungus salad and another one was the fried pork belly dish. Both were delicious and i actually enjoyed the black fungus dish a lot more.... in fact it was so good, i put some of the sauce on top of the rice and it was like crack. i don't know how they make the sauce for the black fungus salad, but its refreshing, zesty and overall delicious. As for the fish pot, you can pick from 3 different flavors. we went with the classic signature spicy sour, but you have the option to pick spicy flavor or the tomato flavor. The spicy sour flavor is spicy due to the peppercorns and red chili, and the soup base was intense in flavor. the service was great and they were attentive and came by asking if we need anything else. this is located in the 99 ranch market strip plaza, and don't let the exterior fool you, the interior is actually very nice. I'm shocked they don't have something like this in Southern California, since lots of chinese restaurants will typically open up there before they expand into other cities. read more

这是我们第一次来这里用餐。餐厅的中式装潢温馨而正宗，营造出一种舒适的氛围。高峰时段座位可能会有些拥挤，但服务人员友好又周到。 我们点的酸菜鱼味道很好，不过如果汤底能更酸更辣一些就更完美了。配菜方面，尤其是凉拌鸡和鸡翅非常出色！ 人均消费大约在 $30-$50 之间，具体取决于所点的份量和加点的菜品。酸菜鱼的价格稍微偏高了一点，不过整体来说是一次非常不错的用餐体验----我们一定会再来尝试更多菜品！ This was our first time dining here. The Chinese decor is cozy and authentic, creating a warm atmosphere. Seating can feel a bit tight during busy hours, but the service is friendly and attentive. The fish dish we ordered was flavorful--though we think it would be even better if the soup base had more pickle and spicier flavor. The side dishes, especially the cold chicken appetizer and chicken wings, were excellent! Expect to spend around $30-$50 per person, depending on portion size and add-ons. The price on fish soup was a bite steep,otherwise it was a great experience--we'll definitely be back to try more! read more

B2J Fish Soup - Spiced Chicken With Chili Sauce - Szechuan Near Me - Plano, Texas

See all

I was initially very excited to try this place but left the place feeling very unsatisfied with our meal. Now, let's start with the good. For the sides/appetizers we got the cucumber salad, chicken with chili sauce, and the house made fried milk custard. All of these were pretty good with the fried milk custard being the saving grace of the night. It was perfectly crispy on the outside and the inside was creamy with some light sweetness to it. The actual fish soup itself on the other hand was not something that I enjoyed. I'm not sure if the quality has gone down or if we just got a bad batch considering all the positive reviews on here but the soup was very fishy and watered down. no spiciness from the chilis, no numbness from the peppercorns, no sourness from the pickled greens; all i really got was just fishiness from bad fish. read more
