This looked like a little ramshackle place. It's in a rundown stripmall that boasts a large laundromat. I only tried this place for convenience since it's right next to the medical supply place I shopped at. The inside is small with a handful of tables. The hostess assumed I was there to pickup an order but I corrected her that I had planned to dine in. Her response was, "oh yeah. You can do that too." The menu had a lot of choices. Too many choices. And I didn't see any combination plates. I was in a bit of a hurry so I ordered the General Tso's chicken because it was a familiar dish to me. The hostess was also my waitress and took my order. She asked what soup and rice I wanted. I didn't realize my meal also came with this. I ordered white rice and I asked what were my soup options. Hot and sour, egg drop and wonton. I chose the wonton. Now, I don't really like these soups, but out of the three, wonton is my least revolting. For the last 20 years the only Chinese restaurant I've eaten at is the buffet on Navarro. So that's the wonton soup I'm used to. When she brought me my cup of soup I noticed it had a chunk of cabbage as well as wontons in it. "Nice touch," I thought. Then I tasted it. Wow!! The cabbage was still firm. Fresh. And the broth was delicious. Not chicken bouillon broth as I expected. Then the wontons... wow! I've never had a wonton this high quality before. Everything about it was delicious and obviously fresh. Soon after, my General Tso's plate arrived. There was enough food to feed my family on that plate. And there were so many veggies with the chicken. Fresh, firm broccoli, bell peppers, scallions, and I believe cayenne peppers. I accidentally bit into one of the peppers and my mouth was immediately on fire!! The sauce was a deep dark red and full of flavor. The perfect blend of spicy and sweet. More on the spicy and less on the sweet. Every bite was delicious. I couldn't eat it all because there was too much food. I asked the waitress for a to-go container. I definitely wasn't going to leave these left overs behind! When she brought me my styrofoam container I told her that this was the absolute best General Tso's I've ever had. She admitted that she herself won't eat Chinese food anywhere else in town. read more

Classic American Chinese food that never fails. I usually get take out and get the Chinese food I remember from my childhood like yellow fried rice and hot and sour soup. read more

The food and service always been great when we go there. It is a mom and pop environment, so if you need a "preppy" place, this is not for you, but if you like good food, service and great portions, this your place. read more

First time ordering here. Orange dyed egg drop soup that was very thick and salty. Bland beef and broccoli in a red dye sauce. Garlic chicken was overly spicy and again in some sort of red dye sauce. Fried rice was crunchy and the egg rolls were flavorless. read more

Sichuan Garden - Spicy wonton - Chinese Near Me - Victoria, Texas

L3 (fish noodle soup) is so good!! The food is cooked by the owners, so you know not only is it delicious but also authentic. The ingredients used are fresh and really make the dish good. The service here is good despite the workers here being busy. It is a great stop on the way to Corpus Christi or the RGV area, or alternatively to Houston to take a lunch break during the long 6 hour drive. Also, I noticed the address here on yelp is wrong, it is actually 1401 E Red River St Suite 2003 Victoria, TX 77901. read more

Food was awesome!!! Our server was pleasant knowledgeable and very attentive. We also ordered General Tso's chicken to go which was wonderful!! Food was hot!!! Ready quickly. Tasted fresh!! Our new favorite in Victoria Servings were generous Crab puff and egg rolls were awesome!! PS we were told this place changed owners 18-24 months ago and is now consistently awesome We will return!!! read more

Yall, this place is amazing. I always order hot and sour soup...if it's good usually everything else is also. And this was the best I've had since moving from Chicago. In fact it just may be the best ever. I ordered fried dimplings-stuffed full of wonderful pork filling. Mango garlic chicken super tasty and they let me adjust the spice level. This tiny place on Red River is a must for Chinese, Taiwanese food lovers. I'm so glad I found it. read more

Sichuan Garden - Mango garlic chicken, fried dumplings, hot and sour soup - Chinese Near Me - Victoria, Texas

Our first visit today, just by chance, that we stopped in right at opening. We were pleasantly surprised at this little spot! Big portions ( shareable plates), delicious, hot food and very nice service. Egg drop soup was fantastic as well as General Tso's chicken and a little different but yummy Kung Pao chicken. A must stop in - or order out - for your Chinese food craving. read more

I ordered 70$ worth of food and the boxes were torn at the bottom and had styrofoam mixed with the meat from the box it was severely disgusting and the worst Chinese cuisine I've had ever. I wouldn't waste my time or money on this and would rather have McDonald's and I never eat there. The owners are a disgrace to even open shop with this type of food. read more

Great food, fast-paced, but the big issues is that smart ass reception, she think's she cute or pretty and smart lol think twice. anyways I hope the owner replace her for a better receptions who have social skills and good matters. I give the restaurant (food) 5 stars the reception a half star plus a middle finger. read more

I ordered the wonton soup and it taste like butt. I had to throw my whole plate away and schedule a dentist appointment

Be aware that the website/ menu connected to this Yelp pages Sichuan Gardens-Victoria, TX is for a restaurant with the same name in San Antonio, TX. According to the staff, people are placing orders using this site and, not knowingly, having their takeout order waiting at the San Antonio restaurant. read more

Not worth what I paid. I gave hem a second try after a horrible experience. The orange chicken and lo mein were okay. Paid $3.49 for 4 crab wonton or crab puffs. They were just wontons with some weird vegetable crap on top. Probably won't go here again. And they forgot my chopsticks after I called to make sure they'd be in there. Also found out they overcharged me and refused to refund the difference. read more

This place has yet to disappoint. Everything we have ordered here has been hot, delicious, and in such generous portions that it usually ends up as two meals. The atmosphere is casual and comfortable, and the staff is friendly and down-to-earth. The menu is huge and most entrees also come with soup and rice to really round it out. They boast American Chinese food staples - like beef and broccoli and orange chicken - along with more traditional fare with ingredients like pig intestines or beef tongue. They do delivery and carry out, but it's never a bad choice to dine-in! Overall it has my vote for best Chinese food place in Victoria. read more

to start, the owner does not speak english. i ordered a lemonade and received water with 2 drops of lemon juice. next, we ordered a large hot and sour soup but turned out to be a "cold" and sour soup. we were hesitant to ask to heat up the soup because she seemed hostile. shortly later, she became less hostile, more helpful, and nicer. so, we asked her to heat up the soup for us and she did. the food arrived fairly quickly, but included large chunks of garlic. other than the large condiments, the food was decent. it got a lot better when the owner left and a young american girl (who spoke english) took great care of us. will i come here again? probably not since it is far away from home read more

Sichuan Garden - kung pao chicken general tao chicken fried dumplings - Chinese Near Me - Victoria, Texas

This is the BEST Chinese food in town. The place is not much more than a hole in the wall, but the food is always top notch and portions are ginormous. We like the wonton soup, General Tso, Hunan or mango chicken, Orange or sesame chicken. It's all good. They have a huge menu with some very unusual choices, but we stick to the usual. They also do a huge takeout business. Try it! read more

The service was terrible, I was asked repeatedly if I was ready to order when I was clearly not, after ordering I was completely ignored. Didn't even get my entire order.. My partner and I ordered crab puffs, chicken Lo mein and mango shrimp with friend rice and wonton soup. The soup never came. The wontons were hard and mostly flavorless. The lo mien was gross and slimy. The mango shrimp was mostly sauce and broccoli. There were weird pieces of something in the fried rice and the fried rice tasted bad. I am surprised I didn't find a band aid or something in the food. The lemon in my ice tea was rotten. I would not come here to eat... Update: it's been 10 minutes since I've ate here and my stomach feels sick. read more

It's not the best I've had but for the Victoria area it's by far the best. The prices are a little higher for most of the dishes ($8+) but u get a lot of food and it taste great. They r a little under staffed right now, so if it's busy it can get a little crazy. The staff is always very attentive regardless though. We have tried several dishes and all have been delirious. If u like cashew chicken ur out of luck here though! read more

Worst ever don't waste your money and time. The beef broccoli was disgusting, if a Chinese restaurant can't get THAT dish right they don't deserve your business, And after I sent it back the manager had the nerve to still charge me for a dish I didn't try. read more

Sichuan Garden - The worst beef broccoli EVER. IT WAS TOMATO sauce instead of a black fish sauce. - Chinese Near Me - Victoria, Texas

Sichuan Garden on Red River. This place and the clowns that run it are a rip off. We went there last night and the food was horrible. We ordered Mongolian beef. It came out so hot with jalapenos it was not edible. The waitress said I had to pay for it. Asked for the manager and she said it was my mistake not hers so I had to pay. Then we got the General Tso's chicken! It was so over fried that the chicken inside was hard as a rock. The fried rice even was nasty. I mean this food was disgusting! Worst food I have ever tasted in Victoria! And the girl at the register threw in an extra dose of rudeness! The owner could not care less about reviews or word of mouth. Maybe that's why the was no one in the resturant at 6 pm dinner time! read more

Like the reviewer below me said...its.not.the best but its heads and shoulders above the chinese places.here in Victoria. A buddy and I decide.to give it a try after work for a late.lunch. they have an extensive menu broken down by appetizers..types of meats and veggies. We went down the appetizer list and ordered the dumplings, duck, shrimp..after that we did the spicy honey comb. I'VE lived in very cosmopolitan places with different styles of Chinese fare and this place came in.pretty close with much more Ill.be willing to.try on tje next trip. The table.next to us.ordered the Tso chicken and that didnt look to.bad either. Sichuan Garden you definately have a new.friend in me. read more

They a quite a few genuine Chinese Sichuan dishes that will spice up your day. I did have diarrhea after having a certain dish. However overall it was a great experience. Large dish amount, reasonably priced. For Chinese folks I suggest you ask if your desired dishes are made for Chinese taste or American. read more

I've eaten here many times since my last review, adding a star. For Victoria, this place is as good as asian food gets. Favorite dish is Shredded(actually slivered) pork with sliced baby bamboo shoots. It has barely any heat, and really nice flavor. Spicy chicken is good as well, bok choy, cabbage and bean sprouts. Varies from warm to really hot. Eggrolls are very good, a bit of 5 spice powder gives them a lot more flavor than your standard version. Slightly inconsistently sized because they are hand rolled, but the good ones are really good. read more

Love, Love, love the egg drop soup and curry rice!!! Delivery is typically fast and the drivers have been nice. Food is always hot and fresh. I've been in the restaurant once and thankfully it was after I knew the food was yummy because I might not have given them a chance. It was a little dirty, small (maybe 10 tables) dining room and that night the hostess or cashier not sure which exactly was not very professional in her actions. We all have bad nights and I'm going to chock it up to that. We still love them and will order again and again. Maybe one day we will eat in store. :) read more

Just ordered something today from this establishment for the first time ever using their online system. The online system was user friendly provided you with pictures each entrée or food item and worked flawlessly, no errors, time outs etc. Food arrived faster than I expected and was still hot, at this point I am pleased I chose this restaurant. The deliver handed me my food and than began explaining my drivers license was needed and asked if I would write it on the receipt. Puzzled by this of course I asked why. He then explained there had been some fraud etc. and this was now a requirement. Being uncomfortable about simply writing this information on the receipt but understood if the company had experienced fraud they might be trying to gather more information now therefore I informed the driver I was not going to write my information down but handed him my business card to give the owners/manager to call if they had problems, and signed the receipt. Less than 2 minutes my phone rings and on the other end is someone who starts off saying, ummmmm we need/we have to have your drivers license....." So at this point I'm thinking I was expecting someone more professional but very quickly realized I was dealing with someone with no business sense. Therefore I abruptly interrupted and stated that most times when someone is asking for personal information especially over the phone they introduce themselves etc. This individual responds by saying, "I don't have to tell you who I am.." Then proceeds to say, "you work at a bank/don't you work at a bank..." Then she goes on to say, "if you don't provide it you won't be able to order from us again." I said ok and hung up. Completely ignorant and unprofessional!!! Obviously she does not understand fraud privacy or protection of information etc... because that is not information that should be just written down casually than transported. The delivery driver after hearing the exchange apologized immediately and was confused because he didn't whether I was keeping the food or sending it back. I assured him it was paid for but I was not going to write my drivers license on the receipt. I would encourage the owners/manager(s) of Sichuan Garden to re-train or remove that individual from dealing with customers directly. Victoria is a small city and food establishments are closing and several have closed already. This type of employee with her lack of tact experience and definite ignorance will clearly run off your customers. Also, I know I'm not the only customer who has questioned this practice if indeed it is one and/or been uncomfortable with it. I would suggest that if this information is going to be needed to deter fraud find a way to include it in your online ordering system so employees are not having to ask for it unless the customer(s) are actually at your place of business. Food was delicious but I won't ever patronize Sichuan Garden again. read more

I had this delivered to my hotel during the Texas Mile weekend in Victoria! It was amazing! I ordered the General Taos chicken with wonton soup and it was amazing! Next year this will be on the list! read more

They get a little lost on delivery once in a while, but we really liked the food. Was more authentic than most places in Victoria. LOVED their fried dumplings! It's been a few weeks since we ordered last, but I heard a rumor they closed. Hope it's just for repairs & they are open again soon. Will probably try for our Friday night take out. :) read more

The seasoning of the food is good. The waitresses are nice and attentive. However, the ingredient they use is not something I would want to feed my body. The beef was the treated meat and the wonton meat is some kind of mystery stuffing. We will not go back there. read more

Recently gave them another chance. Ordered via phone and had delivery. Very fast service. Everything was fresh and hot and tasty. My order was correct. I have no complaints actually whomever made the combo rice this time was awesome! Very good. read more

I ordered the Mongolian style beef. It was a flavorless plate of onions. The beef tasted like boiled beef. After 2 bites I was over it. The waitress asked how our meals were. I explained how tasteless my food was. When she brought our check she had not taken that item off. Upon checkout I brought it to the cashiers attention. She offered no apology for the bad experience with the dish. And did not offer to take that item that was not eaten off of the check. Horrible food and customer service. There are a lot better dining options in Victoria. Stay away from this establishment. read more

Would definitely go back, the Egg Fu Yung was huge and great!

I'm not a big fan Of Asian food but I Love their chicken fried rice and General Tso chicken. I also love the fact that they deliver!! Price is a little high but the servings are fairly large so I think it makes up for it. read more

This place is horrible unless you like gelatinous hot and sour soup and cold chicken in your dinner.
