I've been here about 4 different times and the service here has always been good. My party had someone with celiac disease (gluten intolerance) and when the server relayed the information to the chef, he came out and further asked questions. They did a great job, as there was no cross contamination with anything glutinous. The food is always good. I prefer the hotter and spicier things on the menu and I haven't had something I didn't like yet. read more

Love this chain and they did not disappoint. Another beautiful upscale ambiance just like their other LSC locations in another state. Food was delicious although, I was surprised to find that the Tony's chicken was much sweeter than expected. Service was excellent too! I was surprised that each location carries a slightly different menu. I was craving for Three Cup Basil Chicken from their Pinecrest, OH store and was hoping to get the same here but turns out they don't offer it in their menu. I think that would've been a huge hit. read more

Ok I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE spicy food so I was thrilled to try this place. The food in general here was good so I'd be willing to try more things here. My friend wanted chicken dumplings but we agreed we should've stuck to pork. I got the Hot & Spicy Pot combo with everything. It tasted delish! It definitely wasn't as spicy as I was hoping for but it did taste really good. I am not sure I would get everything again but nothing stood out as tasting bad so I would do it again. I might try the Lalala Spicy Dry Pot next time but I think the one I got has the numbing mala sauce and that's what I like. I didn't taste much of it so I might need to ask for extra next time. The Lao Mein was awesome and came in a huge portion. Originally we were going to order a chicken lao mein to go as the kiddo with us wanted vegetarian and the kiddo at home wanted chicken. I appreciated they were willing to work with us and just cooked us a side of chicken we could add to the meal when we packed it up. Loved: - Appetizer: Spring Rolls - Hot & Spicy Pot (combo) - Hot & Spicy Pot: beef, shrimp, fish fillet - Lao Mein Vegetarian Liked: - Sesame Chicken Ok: - Dumplings: Xiao Long Bao Chicken - Hot & Spicy Pot: chicken, lamb read more

I saw this while driving by and THOUGHT it was the same as one in Chicago, IT IS!! I have eaten here twice in the last two weeks, bringing my sister and then a friend! Went for lunch both time and was pleased each time! The lunch menu pricing is good! You get a soup/salad, little app and entree for under $20! I had the crunchy lemon shrimp and I just don't know if I can even try anything else bc it's that good!!! They have a separate room that I think you could have a large group in? And a booth with pink flowers around it!!! read more

Lao Sze Chuan - Mmmmmmm!!! Crunchy lemon shrimp - Chinese Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

Lao Sze Chuan has definitely added something special to the 901. Great food, great atmosphere, and a really nice ambiance overall. We visited about a month after their grand opening and they absolutely did not disappoint. The duck is a must-try. Crispy, flavorful, and easily one of the highlights of the meal. The fried rice was another standout for us -- simple but packed with flavor and done right. One thing I also liked was the setup of their private party rooms. They have two separate rooms that can either be combined for larger gatherings or kept separate for smaller events, which is a really nice touch. Overall, a solid addition to the Memphis food scene and definitely worth checking out if you're craving good Chinese food in a nicer dining atmosphere. read more

This place is simply incredible! The dining area is exquisite, just beautiful. The staff was so warm and welcoming as well but the show stopper is the food. I started with the steamed dumplings then had Mongolian beef as my entree. This is by far the best Chinese I've ever had and top 5 best meal overall in my life. Just a wonderful restaurant! read more

Wow the interior was captivating! I def felt underdressed ! Service was great. Our server was awesome and attentive. Food was delicious! The egg drop soup had corn in it and tasted a bit burnt. Not a fan. The diced fillet was good. Not too spicy. Dan Dan noodles was flavorful. Beef soup was good. Beef fried rice had a buttery taste and delicious. General tso was meh. Overall, would def come back and try other things! read more

I could have sworn I visited the SW Houston location of this Chicago-based chain, but I guess I didn't. Anyway, this Sichuan restaurant is located in several US states and cities now and is a pretty good place to go for semi-authentic Sichuan cuisine with an American flare and definite American music playing in the background. Inside this location is an upscale dark art deco theme with lots of blacks and gold. We ordered the Peking duck soup and Mongolian beef tenderloin (spicy). Not many items but we were in a hurry due to a full day of events planned. Overall, we had a pretty good experience with this quick meal before visiting several local tourist destinations. The crystal grotto is a short drive from here, which is why I even ended up on this side of town. The mongoloan beef was not spicy at all, even though I had asked for the chef to make it spicy. The duck soup really doesn't have that many pieces of duck in it either. Paying the check took quite some time, not sure why. The restaurant was not that busy but our server sort of disappeared on us for a while there. read more

Excellent food & great service! I love the lunch bento boxes. Such a great variety of options and nice serving sizes. Everything we ordered was delicious and perfectly prepared. The crispy lemon shrimp is my favorite! It reminds me of honey walnut shrimp but much better. The lemon flavor isn't too much. It's just right! The restaraunt is nice and spacious with plenty of room for larger groups. They have a back room which could host 2 groups and an area in the main dining room. read more

Went again to this restaurant and had a few other dishes. The spicy cabbage, Salted egg yolk tofu, lemon shrimp, shredded chicken, Peking duck, and bbq spare ribs were delicious. Huge portions of food to feed 4 people. A party of 4 we were in a booth but next time we will request a round table with the lazy Susan table. Still pretty and clean in the restaurant. Mea was very helpful and efficient serving our food and making sure we were taken care of. The restaurant wasn't too busy and wasn't as noisy like the last time I went. Will be back again! read more

I was really excited to try this new restaurant in the area and was sadly disappointed in the quality of the food. I wanted to try some basic options which always tells me the quality of the place. I placed a pick up order, the staff was friendly and walked me through their menu. And great interaction upon pick up. The space is beautifully decorated and it appears to be a great place to dine in for an experience. However for me the food was not that great. The orange chicken was tough to chew , the noodles did not have a lot of flavor a little bland for my taste and the fried rice was pretty good, the cook made it too spicy when I requested mild spice. read more

Lao Sze Chuan - Shrimp fried rice, lo mein, orange chicken - Chinese Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

Absolutely amazing place. Might not look like much from the outside, but inside is a beautiful restaurant. The food was so good. I only wish the menu had pictures, because I don't know most of those foods by name. This is not a typical fast food Chinese restaurant. This is a classy experience with excellent and attentive service and generous portions of quality food. One dish should could easily be shared by two people. read more

Called for take out. Food was ready quickly. Ordered moo shoo chicken really yummy, eggplant is also so good. Great food and service

I wanted to love it but I didn't. I stopped by Friday evening just before dinner around 5p. I was greeted immediately walking in and was seated. The establishment is beautiful and inviting and was not crowded so I was surprised it took my server 16 whole minutes to come over. While reviewing the menu there were things I wanted to try but was really unsure what was included. My server was unable to clearly explain to me a couple of dishes so I stuck with what I knew. Egg drop soup was good but sweet and that was different. Pork dumplings were good and the combo fried rice that included pork, beef, shrimp, veggies and lamb I think. I asked for spicy but it was very bland. I didn't taste any of the bold spicy flavors promoted for these dishes. I added chili oil for a hint of flavor but otherwise this place was just ok but definitely check them out! read more

I always keep my expectations low for restaurants with a lot of hype. This is a new one but I have been hearing a lot about it in a short time. So a friend and I decided to meet here for lunch. I was kinda expecting a crowd but it was pretty normal. I ordered the crispy shrimp w/ lemon sauce and he got orange chicken. We both were instantly impressed with the flavor. I almost wanted to order some of the lemon sauce to take home. The decor was also very nice. Not what you would expect in a small shopping center. I look forward to going back. read more

Lao Sze Chuan - Crispy shrimp/ lemon sauce. Across from mine is Orange chicken. - Chinese Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

Beautiful interior! Great place for a date night, girls night, business event, and more. The food hold ups to the hype. It's not just a place that looks great but also tastes even better! Nick was my sever and he was phenomenal! The Mongolian beef tenderloin, pork & duck fried rice, and the boiled sole fish in spicy szechuan sauce were amazing. We also got the egg drop soup, hot & sour soup, and wonton soup. All great too! Was more true to what thy should be (not the super yellow thick-egged egg drop soup for an example). I think the prices are reasonable for the atmosphere, food, service, AND PORTIONS. It's a new go-to for sure!! read more

If you're looking for authentic Sichuan flavors, this is the spot! The food is incredibly flavorful- the perfect balance of heat and that signature numbing spice. We tried the Mapo Tofu, the Peking duck, and the twice cooked pork, and all three were standout dishes. The ambiance is modern yet cozy, making it a great place for a date or a group dinner. What really topped off the experience was the friendly and attentive staff; they were quick with recommendations and made sure our water glasses were never empty (which you'll need with the spice!). Highly recommend!" read more

The food was good. The decor is very upscale. And we had great service. My only complaint is how far the booth seat from the table is. I'm big and it was extremely difficult to get the food due to it being so far away. Never had this problem in my life. also the egg drop soup had corn in it. A bit odd. read more

In the spicy dishes, they use a numbing oil which h threw off all my taste buds. I could not drink the water due to the effects of the numbing oil. I would go back to try the duck. It looks good but did not order it. read more

Ambiance is nice for a party, date or when you just want to feel fancy. Like that they offered tofu options. It's the soft tofu not the hard fried tofu I like, but flavor was nice. It's a nice little spot. read more

Move over PoP, there is a new and more authentic Szechuan restaurant in town! And this one has an all you can eat lunch. Clean and new; super Authentic eatery that originated in Chicago Chinatown and is the new go to for spicy and authentic Szechuan cuisine. More choices, more value and soooo good. If you love spicy food but you are new to Szechuan food then I strongly suggest you start with a lunch and get a feel around the menu. Can't be beat! read more

Nice ambience. Omg the bartender so kind and lovely and very attentive. It was a walk in just to try at lunch. I wished I'd taken a pic. I wished I had asked to talk to the chef. Food was so under whelming shy of a cry of good. Idk what you all eat out there but for the price of food you would expect a chef to have the fryer hot enough to produce not a greasy substance of fried wonton ( it was a oil mess) just hold off before u bite. Believe me it isn't proper to consume this crap. I haven't been there in a month just now sharing my experience and I don't want anyone to be out of a job but please, please serve good food! I want businesses to stay into business. Dang I'm a lil ticked. It seemed like a high priced fast food chain with a bar and ambience. Step it up chains! Seriously. So tired of this junk. Honestly no review on stars I have to and don't want anyone to be hurt but they need to be told. So 3 for saving grace. Done. read more

We were so impressed with this place for their food and service we went back a second time to experience some new dishes and this time was even better including their "Crispy Lemon Shrimps" which was really out of this world and highly recommended for anyone who want to try this new place in town. read more

2nd time having dinner here. Both times the food and service were fantastic!!!! We had the soup dumplings which were delicious along with the chili chicken, dan dan noodles and the lamb dish. We never had to ask for refills on our drinks and the server checked on us constantly!!! What a nice change from other places. Cant wait to go back. read more

Ok, omg. Authentic Peking duck in the Memphis area??? This alone is a GOOD reason to go here. No need to travel elsewhere to get 5 star Szechuan food. Dare I say it is even better than petals of peony?! In any case there is tough competition for Szechuan here in Memphis. I can't complain, the more the better!! Love it, keep it up!! read more

The food was out of this world. The spice was definitely there and tasteful not just pain in your face. We had the roast duck which was prepared professionally with the right balance of sweet and savory and the xiao long bao (soup dumplings) was on par with the ones I've had in china. The only con I had is the service. Is a bit slow. read more

This place is really good - kind of expensive but worth the money if that is what you are going for

First off, ambience was great, and Tiffany was the first person to grab my attention at the door as she eagerly helped me secure a table for me and my family and friends. I appreciated her help and her kind demeanor. All the staff was very pleasant. Finally, if you like Americanized Chinese food, this is like that but the kind that you eat while holding up your pinky. Food was delicious... for context I got the General Tso's chicken with white rice and some egg rolls for the appetizer. The portions are fairly generous, and unless you are a bodybuilder, I would say that a meal and a single appetizer would fill most people up. Will definitely be going again. Nia was also a sweetheart. If she serves you, you will be in good hands! read more
