Oh wow! The food was great! I had the hot and sour soup, fantastic! Took a picture! However when the Orange Chicken arrived it looked (and tasted!!!) so delicious I blanked out and jumped right in and only remembered to take a picture when I was putting my leftover in the box! read more

I am not the biggest enthusiast of delivered meals, but this time, I wanted Chinese food, but didn't want to shower and get dressed again to go out. I used Doordash, which I usually have pretty good luck with, especially when my son orders it through his own account. After waiting more than twenty minutes after the delivery time, I got a text from the dasher telling me to cancel the order. My son had already told me about that scam. You go into the app and get the support folks to cancel it, or it is called "customer initiated" and you lose your refund. Anyway, Doordash had the order redone and delivered with a new driver. Let's get to Sichuan Garden. I ordered from here because they had some "non- standard" offerings. I lived in Taiwan a while back and upon return to the US never acquired a taste for the supposedly authentic Americanized dishes. I ordered stir fried pork tripe and pork intestines in spicy chili sauce. I got a complimentary side of fried rice with each of them. I also ordered beef lomein for my son and 4 eggrolls. I tasted the lomein, and it was just okay. I have definitely had better. The egg rolls were "delivery soggy" but tasted fantastic. Can't complain there. The trip and intestine dishes were both delicious. I could eat them every day for the rest of my life and be satisfied. The fried rice, though, was awful. I used it the next day to make a much more improved version at home. All in all, I like the food from Sichuan Garden. I am anxious to go there and dine in. There are some other "non-standard" items I want to try. read more

The ribs with garlic were terrible. I guess it's on me for assuming they would be anything like other ribs instead of rubs of grizzle and bone and fried...never seen that. The General Taos has some spice which is nice but ultimately it taste like it's cooked in old oil and is sickly sweet until the heat kicks in. The wonton soup is very watery and the broth has no texture to it and I didn't see anything in it other than some scallions. And the fried rice is fine...I prefer pork fried rice which wasn't an option from online... I don't know if I would bother giving this place another chance or not. I have been horrendously disappointed by every Chinese food place over here (by the jcc) after growing up in south Florida and New York with great NY Style Chinese... read more

Sichuan Garden - Chinese Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

The frog leg dish wasn't very good, it tasted very gamey... but the vegetables in there tasted pretty good. My husband ordered sesame chicken, he loved it. Service was excellent, I asked them to add more peppers and garlic, they did it perfectly. Very kind and generous. Ambiance was nice, clean environment. read more

We came in for lunch on Christmas Eve. There's were a handful of patrons, and it was rather chill. It was fun to hear staff singing Christmas music and I think, even though it was practically summer outside, it felt like the holiday spirit was hitting! The restaurant is small, but spacious and had a very open and welcoming feel. We were immediately seated and given time to explore the menu. We ordered the salt and pepper fish, kung pow chicken, and tofu with vegetables, bbq buns, spring rolls, and pork dumplings. The salt and pepper fish. You don't need anything else else. This was arguably the best fish I've ever had. It was perfectly seasoned, light, and crispy and was accompanied by some tender cilantro leaves and stems. I don't know what magic spell they use, but I'll never order anything else. I'm often a creature of habit with my orders and stick to what I know I'll like, but this surpassed my expectations. The pork dumplings were also incredible. It packed so much flavor and moisture in a small bite. The bbq pork buns were pillowy soft with a hint of sweetness and packed full of flavor and tender bbq pork. The spring rolls were steamy hot and crispy. Not as memorable as the other starters, but solid. The kung pow chicken was excellent. It had a nice kick and was cooked perfectly with just enough sauce. The tofu veggies were good (but even better the next day). The tofu was the right texture and the veggies were crisp and seasoned well. The friendly staff, the delicious food, and the chill atmosphere made for a wonderful pre holiday lunch! read more

I will keep on coming back to update my review for Sichuan Garden. I love how I walk in and automatically I am greeted by the owner calling me by my name. He also remembers the last time you visited and what you ordered. He never fail to suggest something new or do a twist to dishes so we feel we are trying something new. Whatever you order at this restaurant is always delicious! Also dishes are huge! It is always good to bring friends and family to read more

Monday through Saturday lunch specials until 3pm $10.50 includes tea, soup rice and egg roll. Dim sum available until 5 pm Oolong , jasmine or green tea available. They have duck , chicken feet, beef tripe and frog legs. Seasonal and posted on menu boards. Service is attentive, didn't have to signal. No booths but a few family style tables with lazy Susan carousel for the food. I like this place when food is pharmacy and a hot pot is warranted. read more

The food is excellent and fresh, large menu with a variety of categories. Some of our favorites are the Twice Cooked Pork Belly, Salt & Pepper Fish, Beef Soup, Pea Sprouts with Garlic, and Mapo Tofu but there's so much more to explore on the menu. Large dining room which can accommodate large groups. The service is excellent as well. read more

Posting after years but loved our visit. Flavour was on point. Service was great. Highly recommend the cumin lamb and dry pot.

Food is good. Check it out! I can vouch for crispy spicy chicken, lo mein, egg drop soup, and hot and sour soup. Haven't gotten a chance to try dim sum yet. And haven't been in the mood for hot pot since it's hot in Texas read more

Everything was fantastic. The service was fast, virtually no wait time. The food comes out hot and ready to eat. Me and My Girlfriend Rosana ordered the Spicy sautéed sichuan chicken and Sautéed greens beans. I also ordered the orange chicken with Crab Rangoons. The first dish was amazing. The noodles with the spicy sautéed chicken went together amazingly and complimented the green beans and left a great after taste. The orange chicken came with broccoli and steam rice, and both were hot tasty and delicious! This is the best experience we have had in a while so i had to make my first post this one. This restaurant had a great atmosphere and ambiance. They made sure we were served and satisfied while we were eating. I will definitely go back. It was amazing :) read more

14 Feb 2025 This place is so consistently good. They have a new dim sum and hot pot menu. Dim sum is available daily from 11am - 5pm. We had the Pork BBQ steamed buns. Tasty, but a little more doughy than We've had at other places. Husband had a lamb dish served in a a large bowl. Very spicy broth. I had the roast duck served with a thick plum sauce. Very good. The skin was deliciously crispy. It was easier to eat with my hands, rather than pull the meat off the bones with my fork and spoon. Iced tea is only $3. Not bad. Several servers helped us. All were pleasant and efficient. Go there. read more

We tried the beef tripe, boiled fish in stew, and fried eggplant. Service was fast and friendly. They refilled our waters many times! The fried eggplant was my favorite. The texture was soft but still had form. It was slightly sweet! The beef tripe was bouncy and tasty. I also liked the boiled fish stew. There were lots of cabbage in the stew. read more

We wanna love this place. The board menu seems to be the best part of the menu but we came in to try the dim sum, it wasn't terrible but a $120 lunch for 4 it was disappointing sadly...the snow pea leave were the only part of lunch that was good and it came with steamed rice which we had to ask for then ended up with two and told we'd be charged for it even tho we only asked for what it came with...service was good but i wouldn't recommend the dimsum at all read more

This place is fantastic especially if you want to order authentic sichuan food. They have mild and spicy dishes. The staff were helpful in helping me order unfamiliar food dishes from the menu. The prices are reasonable. The place was pretty crowded but not too noisy. I could see a lot of people in these round tables were having a communal experience sharing their dishes with everyone at their table. The food was very enjoyable. Be careful not to order too much but you'll love the leftovers. read more

Very sweet waitress. We tried two dishes for lunch - twice cooked pork and stir fried tripe (special menu off the wall). The twice cooked pork is average but it's better than the stir fried tripe. However the waitress was very tentative. She fried to make sure we are taking care of, so she returned the dish to give it more flavor after communicating with the chef. It was a little better with more spice and salt but still not amazing. We are partial to another Szechuan restaurant on I10. read more

Still my absolute favorite restaurant in San Antonio! I've been coming here for 4 years and I order the crispy spicy fish and the green beans. My boyfriend orders the twice cooked pork and the dry pot chicken and we eat all of this with white rice. It is absolutely fantastic every single time. The spicy cumin lamb, and the steamed cabbage are more of our favorites, but we can't eat so much food. It's family style serving! read more

The food was really good and there wasn't a wait for a weekday lunch. I ordered the spicy crispy chicken, egg plant with garlic, broccoli and beef, and spicy boiled fish. I think my favorite dish was the spicy crispy chicken and after that the spicy boiled fish. For 3 people, we ordered 4 dishes and it was a lot, I think we would have been fine with just 3 dishes. Some of the entrees also came with a soup which I got egg drop soup and it was really good as well. I think the service was a bit slower but the waiter was nice. read more

### Mixed Experience at Sichuan Garden First time here, and the restaurant wasn't crowded. The place, including the restrooms, were clean and well-maintained. The waiters were pleasant. However, before our food came out, one of the staff members asked my sister and husband to move their baby to another seat because that's where they serve, which was very odd and rude. The egg drop soup and crispies could use some improvement, but the main dishes were very good. We had General Tso's chicken (both spicy and non-spicy), lemon chicken, sesame chicken, white rice, and fried rice. We were very happy with the food, and the portions were generous. Overall, a mixed experience. read more

I think I found a new restaurant to go to for Sichuan food and Hot and Sour soup. Used to go to Sichuan house but after two disappointing visits in a row, I went looking elsewhere. We were eating lighter and just wanted some takeout from Sichuan Garden. Got Hot and Sour soup and was not disappointed. Rich and thick and full bodied taste with just the right heat. Also had the Chengdum dumplings and they were really good. Finally got their Greenbeans as I wanted to find another place for those too and they were really great and I'll put them up against other restaurants who claim they have the best. read more

Sichuan Garden - CK6. Kung Pao Chicken - Chinese Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

The best authentic Chinese-Sichuan restaurant in SA - totally beats Sichuan house on the other side of the city. Excellent food, never too crowded (lots of people don't know this place yet it seems), reasonable price, great food portions, usually fresh ingredients, and nice ambience - what else can you ask? Our top picks are spicy jumping fish fillets (跳跳鱼), crispy spicy chicken (辣子鸡) - you can choose it with bones which is more authentic or no-bones, shredded pork with bamboo (笋尖肉丝), a mild dish that is executed excellently here, cumin lamb (孜然羊肉). Only complaint is that lots of the dishes with different names are actually cooked in a similar manner - we've tried a few different the lamb dishes and they are all more or less similar, with a combination of onions/green peppers on and off. Portions are really good - they don't fake like some restaurants by laying a thin layer of meat over a huge bowl of Napa cabbage. Almost left with a full stomach and some happy memories - highly recommend! read more

Food and service are fantastic and the location is clean and organized. Service is fantastic. Been here twice in the last month, I have had their sweet-and-sour chicken and orange chicken lunch specials. Egg drop soup is fantastic, and food is delicious. It is not a buffet in the kitchen that they load on a plate. Every single meal is cooked to order. I would highly recommend and I am definitely going back there. read more

Sichuan Garden - Orange chicken - Chinese Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

There are only a handful of Chinese restaurants in San Antonio that I think are authentic enough to recommend and Sichuan Garden is most certainly one of them. Sichuan cuisine is the country's fastest growing regional Chinese cuisine and as one of the city's more established spots, I'm pleased to report they're doing it just as well as any. Spacious, clean, and bright are words that come to mind when describing the interior setup. There are plenty of room for all kinds of parties, simple decor and a fun large wallpaper painting. This is a substantial upgrade from their older location, which was smaller and dingy. Overall the food gets a thumbs up. Their crispy spicy chicken (辣子雞) stays true to its Sichuan origins, with a nice amount of crisp and a lot of good heat. I'm not the biggest hot pot person, but their setup was excellent, with a tasty broth and quality ingredients. Their sauteed long beans (四季豆) had a nice snap for each bite and the appropriate spice with just enough ground pork. Even their red oil (cheng du style) wontons (紅油抄手) are delicate and not too oily even when sitting in sauce. Another surprise was their cumin lamb (自然羊肉), which was also spicy, but juicy with each bite. Many others have cited their stir fried eggplant (炒茄子) as worthy, to which I would agree. Service is good. They were really on top of the takeout situation, especially during the pandemic. Phone orders are not an issue and they take credit card here. Prices are not going to be the cheapest, but that's to be expected. Lastly, each time I've been here it's been a ghost town. Here's hoping that changes for them sooner than later. read more

This place is one of those restaurants that locals will rave about but you'll never see an advertisement for. Let's start with the obvious: this is a hole-in-the-wall locally-owned small business. Their food is made to order (so be patient) and sometimes orders aren't 100% accurate (that's part of the adventure of life). You know what, though? If you're dining in they will make sure that your order is to your liking. If you leave this place hungry it's your own fault. We eat here at least once a month, but usually more frequently. It's an easy go-to since we know our kids will clean their plates. Our favorite dishes? Glad you asked. The General Tso chicken is a staple, the sautéed green beans are a must-have appetizer or side dish (shareable for 2-3 people), and you can't go wrong with the kung pao chicken or the Mongolian beef. Feeling bold? The cumin lamb is a delicious journey off the beaten path! Pro tip: you can hit their website and order online for pickup; it's convenient and easy! read more

First timer visiting on a Saturday night. It wasn't super busy but definitely steady. The service overall was great! Our little one kept crying for some reason and the waitress came over with some cookies and calmed them down. I've been at some places where the staff gets upset or gives looks so it was nice of them to do. Hubby and I both ordered lamb. He ordered the cumin and me the onion and lamb. His was very tasty! Mine wasn't too flavorful so I would not order it again. We also got the egg drop soup and it was so so. It may have been old by night time. Our little one usually loves the rice and soup but he was not a fan. The ambiance was decent nothing spectacular. Overall decent and we would come again to try something new, they have so many options! read more

We hadn't been in a while and stopped in after discovering that a bother restaría y we wanted to try was closed on Tuesdays.

There is always something new to try and the taste never disappoints. read more

Found this wonderful gem on Saturday! The staff was very friendly and helpful on the menu items. We ordered two yummy dishes and both were shareable. We ordered the Dry Pot Spicy Shrimp and Roasted Duck. The dry Pot Spicy shrimp was seasoned very nicely. I didn't feel this dish was too spicy or over powering. I thought it was spot on. The Roasted Duck was very good. The meat was very tender and the skin has that perfect crunch. I can't wait to go back . If you haven't eaten here, check it out. read more

We went here after going to Sea World as my wife wanted Chinese food and hot pot. We ordered the Singapore noodles, lamb hot pot and Chengdu style dumplings. It does get pretty busy here as we did come here around 5pm and then at 6pm the place was full and there was people picking up orders too. So the wait for the food can take quite a bit of time. Service was very good too. I enjoyed the food as the hot pot was spicy and full of pepper so I could not eat too much. The Singapore noodles were good, but meat was a little bit to dry, but after putting in the dumpling sauce it ended up tasting great. Overall, it was a great experience. read more
