    Fine quality Chinese food. The mother and son combo run the show. The interior is outdated, old and dirty. The food is worth it though.

    The previous owner has since sold it to another family member, and it's still a wonderful place for eat-in or take-out.

Gave me wrong size container of food as well. No point in trying to address the issue or they will mark you look like the crazy one. Get some AC and clean you place. Completely unsatisfied To the point where I have to leave this review.

It should not be surprising that when a family came in and asked for, "Arroz con Pollo," that the Chinese owner responded in decent Spanish and started the order. I guess this is how the Mexican/Chinese restaurant niche got started. Cool! The shop was small, but with a few tables and a shiny kitchen. The menu was typical Chinese/American fare with prices so low at under $6 for most lunch combos, including a can of soda or bottle of water, that I did a double take. Nothing like low rent to feel like you are back in 1990. The Sesame Chicken was a crowded plate with yellow dyed Pork Fried Rice from whatever bouillon they used, and a nice mound of Chicken in a gloopy, yet pleasant tasting sauce. The breading was not overly thick and the Chicken did not taste like it had been frozen for long. What would this dish be without a few sprigs of broccoli? While this meal could have been totally forgettable, in fact it was decent. Everything played its part well, and the intercultural dynamics of the area made for surprising entertainment.

    I haven't been to Szechuan House in a couple of years since switching jobs, and I often find myself…read morethinking about how much I missed it. For this year's Chinese New Year, I decided to take the family there for our New Year dinner, and the food was just as good as I remembered. The place hasn't changed a bit, the decor still looks exactly how I remember it, which brought back memories. Since some of my family and friends don't enjoy the same spice level as I do, we adjusted the heat for dinner, and everything still came out fantastic. We ordered the whole steamed fish, happy fish, green beans, tea smoked duck, pork chop, beef pan fried noodles, and more. Every dish was delicious, and the flavors were spot on. The service was a bit tentative at times, but the quality of the food definitely made up for it. Overall, it was a wonderful meal and a great way to celebrate. I definitely need to come back more often.

    Ordered lunch via GrubHub from here and it was solid…read more The lunch special entrees are great and they come with your choice of rice and then a choice between soup or egg roll as well. It seems that both the pepper steak and chicken with broccoli were in the same sauce (& I've actually found that to be common in this area for some reason) but were tasty overall. The egg roll was quite greasy and the wonton soup was pretty solid with the broth being the star. Oh the white rice was cooked how I expect and wish all Chinese white rice is cooked so that's a plus. Overall a true 3.5 star rating but since halves aren't possible I had to go to 3 because it certainly wasn't a 4.
