Sichuan Folk - Szechuan Near Me - Plano, Texas

I could not think of a better meal to eat than some hot pot to celebrate Lunar New Year, and Sichuan Folk satisfied my cravings! Most people don't know that they offer AYCE hot pot, and I don't blame them since the restaurant doesn't really advertise it at all. My boyfriend and I ate here multiple times in the past whenever we're craving Sichuanese food, and it's always delicious. However, their hot pot was even better! I called the restaurant to see how busy they were on Lunar New Year Eve, and they said they were packed. I asked if they have hot pot tonight and they replied they do, but it's going to be a long wait (~1 hour). I didn't mind since most of the Asian restaurants are packed for the celebration, so we came and waited. I'm not sure if there was a miscommunication on the phone but I came in and asked for AYCE hot pot, and they said they're not serving it tonight. I told them that I called on the phone earlier, and I don't mind waiting, but I already drove here so it's pointless to pick another place. The owner lady said okay and I just sat at the waiting chair. The restaurant was fully packed with customers, there weren't any empty tables left. They had big parties on the round tables, and smaller parties on the left side. It took about 25 mins to get seated, which is faster than the estimated one hour wait. The menu is online, so you just scan the QR code to order. The hot pot option was at the end, and it was a little confusing. The price was $24.95/person for AYCE, and a one-time fee of $10.95 extra for the soup. We had a party of 3, which equals out to about $28/person total. They had a lot of options on their hot pot menu, like the basic beef/lamp/pork/chicken shabu, then a bunch of seafood and vegetables. I was surprised to see lotus roots offered as well since other restaurants typically don't have it. It took about 15 mins for the ingredients to come out. We picked both the plain and medium spicy broth, and it was SPICY. The server told me it was a 6/10 for a medium level, and I think my tongue died from the first taste. But, it was SO delicious, despite the burning. They did not skim on the amount of food that we ordered either. They brought 3 trays, separating the vegetables, sliced meats and seafood/noodles. Everything was so tasty with both broths that I'm still drooling. They refilled our broth constantly, and there's no extra charge for that. The meat slices are thin, and cooked instantly the second you put into the pot. OH! The hot pot is this big metal pot so there's plenty of space to cook your ingredients. There's a time limit of 1.5 hours, but we sat down at 8 and they didn't rush us until the restaurant was closing at 10 PM. Overall, this is my new favorite hot pot restaurant! I've tried all the other AYCE hot pots in town (Manna, Happy Lamb, Squares, Gogiya, Volcano, etc), but nothing satisfied my cravings like Sichuan Folk. The price was perfect for the amount of food you get, and definitely cheaper if you have a bigger party since the broth is a one-time fee. Beware that they bring out your ingredients according to the number of people at your party. They gave me a huge tray of beef tripe even though the other two don't eat, since there's no "adjustment" on the app. Next time I'll ask if I can get a smaller portion for specific ingredients, but aside from that-- it's a 11/10. read more

I'm shocked that I have not previously written a review for this place! It's my favorite Sichuan place in the Dallas area, and we are almost always willing to make the long drive to eat here. We always order the chili fried chicken (boneless), the fish in spicy chili sauce (水煮魚), and green beans when we're here. We've also tried the eggplant and a few other veggies, but we are definitely creatures of habit with our favorite dishes. The chicken is soooo good. Perfectly crispy and savory. The spice does build over time, but it's not overwhelming. The fish comes with really generous portions and cabbage and celery, so we always end up taking some home and eating the leftovers with rice. The green beans are so tasty and probably our favorite green beans out of the Chinese restaurants in Dallas. read more

I was craving some numbing pepper spicy food, and this place definitely hit the spot! Their menu is so expansive, it can be so overwhelming. However, even though we had hungry eyes, we were able to narrow down to 4 dishes between the four of us. The entrees are very generous, so we had leftovers (still delicious the next day)! Absolutely amazing food! Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious! Each of the following dishes below I would 100% order again! 1) Deep Fried Chicken w.Roasted Chili 2) Lamb w.Cumin Sauce 3) Spicy Grill Whole Fish 4) Szechuan Spicy Cold Noodle There's plenty of parking available! read more

All dishes were excellent. We go here 2x a month. Satisfied every time! The weight staff is very efficient and friendly. Even the rice is delicious. read more

Great lunch special! The lunch special here is plenty of food, with rice, soup, and a dish for just $10ish. And the lunch special isn't a personal lunchbox, it is served with the dish separately which makes it nice to share family style. Food came quickly and everything was very flavorful! read more

Came here on a Friday night and got many dishes to share. Most of them were pretty solid, the ones that stood out to me were the deep fried chicken w chili and the fried string beans. The service was quite quick and easy to order online. They have a pretty extensive menu so I'd be back to try other dishes! read more

Sichuan Folk - Food - Szechuan Near Me - Plano, Texas

Sichuan Folk in Plano is an absolute gem for authentic, fiery Sichuan cuisine!. It's a bustling, clean spot with friendly staff and generous portions, making it great for families or groups. The menu offers a fantastic mix of authentic, intense dishes and reliable, less spicy options. It's a must-visit for anyone craving authentic Sichuan flavors in the DFW area. Highly recommended for bold flavor lovers! read more

The other Sichuan restaurant across the street closed for Chinese new year so we came here knowing they have pretty solid Sichuan food. Three mushroom pot : good, but I can't identify the 3rd mushroom, I could tell shiitake and oyster mushroom but not the 3rd one. 4/5 Fried chicken with chili :3/5 The other Sichuan restaurant executed this dish much better. Here, they used too much rice flour so each piece of chicken was hard and there was no numbing flavor Spicy Tofu and beef 4/5 Beef was very tender but portion wasn't big. Would I come back? Yea, but this is my backup Sichuan place, not my primary Sichuan place. The best Sichuan place in town is still the one across the street read more

More than just a great meal, it's an experience. I recommend getting a group together for great food and a wonderful environment. And the service is top-notch! read more

So great! Lots of food. Great service! Run, don't walk, to get your Chinese food at Sichuan Folk!

Authentic sichuan cuisine! This place was crowded on a Sunday afternoon with a wait the entire time we were there. Full of families enjoying lunch! Mapo Tofu was spicy and peppery with lots of silken tofu. Boiled fish was full of meat and veggies. We ordered the salt and pepper squid but they accidentally delivered the salt and pepper fish. We ate a few pieces before they realized their mistake and brought the squid. I actually preferred the fish. They charge for steamed rice so be aware since most places don't. Overall I liked it but found it to be a little too greasy for me. read more

Spicy frog was amazing but the bones make the fish or chicken easier to eat and they make sure it's spicy and tasty. I randomly crave mushrooms and green beans and only from this restaurant will I ever obtain them. My go to order shared with my review. read more

4.5 stars. This is probably one of the highest standards of Sichuan cuisine in DFW. We came here on a Saturday night for dinner, no problem getting a seat quickly around 6pm. The servers were nice and friendly. Hotpot frogs - 4/5 stars. The frog is something you all should try once. Very fresh and they said they cooked it with live frogs. You can tell the texture is better than frozen ones. Orange chicken - 4/5 stars. Got this for the kids and it was fairly good. Real white and clean chicken meat deep fried with a thick sweet sour sauce. Chili oil fish - 5/5 stars. Flavorful, hot and spicy, and the peppercorns were the highlight. The fish was so silky and tender. Sichuan cold noodles- 2/5 stars. Underwhelming, I won't order it again. Noodles were not chewy, the sauce didn't have the complex flavor I was looking for. Good place, we will be back. read more

Absolutely the best Sichuan food in DFW - their Mapo Tofu is so freaking legit, from the flavors to the numbing; it's mouthwatering just to think about. Other notable dishes that were tried: CQ Hot Chicken (also a must order - it's like super flavorful popcorn chicken), basil eggplant (YES), salt and pepper squid (not the best, you can skip it - many other places do a better job), and garlic green beans (how can you not order this at a Sichuan place? an easy staple). I will be back for the mapo tofu, CQ hot chicken and basil eggplant! read more

Authentic Sichuan-style Chinese food here!!! We tried the Sichuan fish filet, dry string bean, soup dumplings, beef noodle soup and spicy wontons. Everything was so flavorful and I enjoyed the Sichuan fish filet the most because of the mala taste. It was very delicious. Service was excellent with attentive staff and the place was very clean. Definitely recommend if craving authentic Chinese food in the Dallas area! read more

Food was loaded with MSG which for one is bad for you and two, masks the true flavor of the food. Ambiance: typical Dallas in that it is plain and void of decor making it cold and uncomfortable. The waiting area is poorly designed as well as you sit there staring at the people eating and they at you. Fun. Service: waiting and ordering is done via kiosk and phone so very impersonal. The servers will bring the food out and are even more impersonal. read more

Food was good, a bit salty though. Service was sort of strange/a little spotty, but then they were super busy. The worst thing about the experience and the reason we will not most likely go back is the place was SO LOUD! I practically lost my voice trying to talk to the person across the table. I don't think I've ever eaten in a restaurant where the acoustics were so bad. They really need to do sound dampening. When we finally walked outside, my husband exclaimed, "ah what a relief to just listen to the traffic noise of Central Expressway." If you want to have a conversation, this is not the place to go. read more

Food is great! Service is not! I warned you. I had a tough day today and the only thing I was looking forward to was placing my order for dinner. I walked into the restaurant with a great smile on my face because I was that excited. But, only to be greeted with assumption that the only thing I knew from the menu was fried rice. I am not sure what that intention was but I was very caught off guard by this behavior. When I told the lady no, she seemed annoyed and asked what I wanted. She didn't even offer me a menu. She also had no one in the restaurant. I was very caught off guard. She was rushing me that I was getting really nervous! And i also had the whole wait staff watching me while they are speaking their language to each other. I did hesitate to see if I should walk out, but I was really craving the food. I hope that this lady learns from this and is nicer to other customers moving forward. read more

very good food and friendly service! it's a reasonable priced. the fish is really good

Amazing Chinese food! I thoroughly enjoyed my first dining experience here. We had a party of 12 people and of course there's a lot of things to tend to for such a big group, but the servers were really attentive and made sure we had our teas/waters refilled all the time. The food was as great as the service. Every dish we had was tasty and felt high quality. Nothing was super salty/tough like how other Chinese restaurants' dishes are. We ordered the salt and pepper squid, spicy dumplings, fried tofu, sweet and spicy soup, pork ribs, green beans, snow peas, eggplant, and general tsao's chicken. I enjoyed the spicy dumplings and the eggplant dish the most! Their eggplant was so good - I usually never like eating it back in California (where I'm from) but they grill the eggplant to a certain texture that is really enjoyable to eat Vs. all soft/mushy. Overall I really recommend this place. read more

Bad to go boxes. Ordered 3 lunches to go. The bottom box was crushed by the top 2. Styrofoam boxes were all softened and became brittle due to heat. Eating food that had made contact with heated polystyrene can't be that healthy. read more

I recommend the Tofu with spicy fish filet. Oh wow it had an amazing kick to it and the sauce that it's swimming in was delicious. I could pour it over rice and eat it just as is. The dry fried string bean was so savory and tastes like heaven. I love this location as well as the one by Hmart. read more

Service was excellent. Food was also great. I had the deep-fried chicken with roasted chilies, plus a side of steamed rice. Wonderful job. They came by to check on the table and even refilled water.

Sichuan Folk - Szechuan Near Me - Plano, Texas

To be honest, I do not like this place. We ordered six dishes, none of them surprised me. The vege is very common just like home-made dish. The pork rib is unpopular, my friends do not like it, I have to eat them all by myself. The fried chicken is just like what we always eat in restaurant or frozen food. If I have to rank these dishes ,No.1 should be given to the shrimp, which is the most special one with salted egg surrounding every shrimp giving special flavour. But my friends do not like it. Well, I may not go this place for a second time. As there are so many other restaurants to try. read more

At first glance place is clean and fairly new looking. There was a self check in kiosk that said there was 3 ahead of us but it went fast. We sat down the waitress took our food order quickly. No menus you have to scan a QR and order thru that as well. We ordered the egg rolls, soup dumplings, combo fried rice, combo lo mien, twice cooked pork, three mushrooms, minced pork with yam noodles. Everything came out as it was made by whatever server was available. Everything was good but the minced pork with yam noodles was different. Not bad just different. The fried rice was nothing special compared to the other stuff. The lo mien noodles had a very good garlic flavor and the twice cooked pork was excellent but a tad spicy. I really wish I would have ordered one of the frog dishes. I will be back to try one. The type of service I don't really care for. It takes away from the experience I think. The whole do it yourself without paper menus or a server to talk to is the thing now but I don't care for it. Not having one server from start to finish leaves you just waiting longer than you should to get anything like napkins, soy sauce, or anything like that. I'll know for next time. We went to the other location that the GPS took up too and of course it's closed. Make sure you go to the right one on Legacy!!! read more
