We love them! We were so sad when they closed. So glad they are back open. Such sweet folks work there. We get takeout at least once a month. Everything has been delicious. read more

Pretty good Chinese spot in Penn Hills. We got it delivered and it came fresh & hot. The crab rangoons were really good. I had the General Tso's and it was good but the meat was a little tough. They have really great pricing compared to other places nearby. Overall would probably order again. read more

Sichuan Palace - Takeout - Chinese Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

This rating is for the General Tao shrimp lunch special for 11 and change. This is awful, do not do it. This is the worst americanized Chinese food I've ever had. Small shrimps wrapped in huge chunky batter and some kind of sauce that does not resemble any general Tao I have ever eaten. Fried rice is nothing but bland rice. that's not how we get down in Philly and I'm sure Pittsburgh can do it better. Win tonight soup was awful also. I don't how it's possible that take out won ton soup was bad, but it was.. This meal was tough to get down, will not be back. Nice people, but I had a feeling it was weird when the food came out so quick. read more

I've never had a issue with my food from Sichuan Palace in Penn Hills until June of 2025 I ordered Shrimp Fried rice, there was a piece of egg shell and a piece of the shell from the shrimp in it. I didn't report it because in all of the years that I've ordered from them there hasn't been an issue. So I ordered Shrimp with Garlic Sauce July 26, 2025 and there was some type of globe of I don't know what it was. I called the restaurant and spoke to a Billy and I also called Grub hub to submit my complaint. I won't be ordering from them again. read more

Food was fresh, very well prepared and absolutely delicious. I ordered the Shrimp Egg Foo Young, Fried Rice, Wonton Soup and Shrimp Egg Roll. I used DoorDash for delivery and my order was delivered in a timely manner. I will definitely be ordering from them again. read more

We are new to the area and have been exploring different Asian restaurants in Pittsburgh. We saw this little "hole in the wall" place while at PennDOT. We were hungry, so we took a chance. The food was amazing! Everything from the appetizers to the main course appeared homemade and was served piping hot of vintage Pyrex restaurant ware. It was quiet and we did not feel rushed at all. We spent more time enjoying the food and the ambiance than other places we've visited. The owners were very accommodating, and kind. There was sooooo much food! Price was very reasonable considering portion sizes. We were there during lunch hours (11am-3pm). There was no sign of skimping on ingredients. The combination lo mein had almost as much meat as noodles. We will definitely be back! read more

We got our meals to go. Son got chicken & broccoli, but ran off before I could get a photo of it. Order was ready quickly and hot when it got home. I got their shrimp fried rice for $8.50. I usually get the fried rice or lo mein because this place never skimps on the shrimp. The serving is HUGE. I took two photos of the same shrimp fried rice so you can see how much you get. The first one is the rice in its to-go container, but the second one is the same to-go container next to the plate that has almost half of the rice on it. You can see how much was in the container - A LOT! It was a little dryer than it usually is, but was fine with the duck sauce I always bathe it in. I love duck sauce, what can I say? The reason I bumped it down a star is because they shorted me the egg roll I'd ordered. I didn't catch it because it was my son who picked the order up & he didn't know what I ordered, other than what he wanted. read more

I chose to dine in-what a mistake. When my food came a swarm of gnats also arrived. I couldn't even eat because I was constantly swatting flies. Had to get it boxed to go. The food taste and quality were mediocre at best. I was the only person dining in and was near the kitchen entrance. I have to think the kitchen was also full of gnats. Yuk! read more

A lovely authentic Chinese restaurant with good food and friendly staff! I highly suggest any newcomers try the Amazing Chicken. Not many people dine in anymore so it would make a nice date night. read more

Always great food and quick friendly service when going here. Definitely a go to for Chinese.

What's for lunch? (Saturday~ March 14, 2020) Sesame chicken with spicy General Tso's sauce!!! Sweet iced tea for the drink!!! Yum Yum Yum!!! The woman who usually waits on us was there & things usually turn out the best with her!! I feel like we are friends!! Meal specs: As usual... I ordered the sesame chicken because I like the chicken that comes with that meal better than the chicken that comes with the General Tso's chicken meal!! It's less breading & better chicken!! I love their spicy General Tso's chicken sauce!!! They will make it spicy if that's what you like... like myself!! The crab rangoon was also good!! It was crispy and the filling was creamy & a good balance!! Not too sweet & not to cream cheesy!! Drink specs: Their sweet iced tea is really good here!!! It's sweet but it doesn't taste like you're drinking sugar!! This day it was perfect!! Bon appétit!!! Pictures read more

When I visit my wife's family, we often order Chinese food from here both because it's good and it's close. My dish was Sichuan Beef, but it was the other option on the menu. I liked the flavor, and the julienned onion and peppers with it were perfectly cooked, just like the beef was. The white rice was nice with it. Honestly just what I expected. I would really love to see a better quality of accompanying sauces. I'm a sucker for good Hot Mustard. It's not here. It's very fast and easy to order on the phone. We've never eaten inside. I would believe their take out business must be 10X their indoor service. We also got the chow mein with chicken for my litte kiddos and they gave it two thumbs up, so that's a win....i enjoyed the flavor and mouthfeel of the noodles in that dish and everything in it complemented it well. We brought our leftovers back home with us on the 8 hour drive and we're happy to eat them the next evening after that long drive back to Chicago. Will be back for more in the summer. read more

Entree: Eggplant Tofu Price: $10 Weight: 787 grams (entree) Taste: 4/5 Definitely a restaurant that serves one of the better Chinese eggplant dishes in the Pittsburgh area. The sauce is sweet, savory, and just about the right consistency. Tofu is cooked well and goes along deliciously with the sauce. Eggplant taste is also on-point and blends deliciously with the overall entree. Docking minor points because the texture of the eggplant was a little too mushy but overall much better than comparable dishes in the area. Value: 5/5 At $10 this dish is a superb value. Large chunks of eggplant and tofu show that this restaurant didn't skimp on ingredients and you definitely get your money's worth. 78g/$ is a solid amount of food for your dollar. tl;dr Great taste, great value read more

Sichuan Palace - Eggplant Tofu - Chinese Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

We stopped here while traveling through the area recently. In terms of take-out "packaging" for eating out it was probably one of the best we have encountered. We had Spring rolls, which were very good and hot when we received our food. We also had General Tso's and vegetable fried rice. I thought the General Tso's was a bit sweeter than I prefer and had very few broccoli pieces which for me, was disappointing. The vegetable fried rice was fine with the vegetables cooked just right for our taste. Other than being a bit further out of our route than expected, we will likely stop here again when traveling through the area. read more

Sichuan Palace Chinese Restaurant Penn Hills meals. On 8.25.20, I bought two Shrimp Lo Mein lunch meals at $7.50 each. It took less than twenty minutes from the time I ordered the meals by phone until I was called by the store's cashier that the meals were ready. Each meal was in a non-microwaveable white container. I did not accept from the cashier what I believed were two uncleaned white plastic folks and the white paper napkins which were handled by her ungloved hands. The temperature of the food was hot. There were 13 deveined but small (about 1.0") shrimp, ample serving of noodles and vegetables. The well-seasoned meals were very delicious and I am looking forward to buying more meals from them. read more

Definitely my family's favorite Chinese restaurant Food is fresh and delicious! Egg rolls are huge and very tasty. Our favorites are hunan chicken, pork lo mein, beef broccoli, General tso chicken, Food is always fresh, service is very pleasant. We not only love the food and service at Sichuan palace, we love supporting our local businesses! Angie & family read more

I love this chinese spot. It's one of my favs in the whole pittsburgh area. Everything I've tried here has great taste and it's not too greasy. I've tried the General Tso's, Buddhist delight which is al veggies in a white sauce and their beef and broccoli. Of course i can't forget the combination fried rice. It has pork, chicken, and shrimp not to mention the perfect combination of fried rice with all the great flavor. I have never had a problem with their dishes. Everything is served hot and fresh and never taste bad. I never have stomach issues either like some other restaurants. The inside decorations are a little outdated and could use some freshening up but it doesn't take away from the quality of the food and the great service. The place is almost never occupied. I see a few couples there every now and then but most of the guest order take out. Try whatever you like here I'm sure you won't be disappointed!! read more

Well, we let some time pass to see if this place improved........ordered just now.......DISGUSTING !!!!!!!!!! The rice has changed......its bland, odd texture......gross......(whole grain? instead of white, maybe?)......the general tso's was HORRID !!!!!! the sauce is a mix of gross, nyquil-tasting, cleaning fluid-tasting.........DISGUSTING !!!! The fried rice had little to NO vegetables......and the same disgusting rice......HORRIBLE MEAL !!!! This place, years ago, was INCREDIBLE.......but in the last year or 2...wow......terrible decline........very unreliable......WE. ARE. DONE. read more

Highly recommend the food! My only compliant is the vegetarian/vegan option, being the tofu was not very good. Other than that, a great meal! read more

I've been eating at Sichuan Palace my whole life and it's delicious. They always give large portions and their food is very good. I recommend the sweet and sour chicken and the beef with vegetables. Their crab Rangoons are excellent too. read more

Generous portions and affordable. Arrived quickly and was fresh! Generally, pretty disappointing food. Chicken in the sesame chicken was pretty cheap quality (stringy and tough) and all the sauces in our dishes were fairly greasy and sweet. I can't say I'd order from Sichuan Palace again. read more

Was hoping for more based on the reviews. Went in to eat lunch and service wasn't great, atmosphere strange (very quiet, no music - could hear the coupe across the restaurant complaining about their food). Seems most of their business was takeout. The food we got was on par for takeout I guess, but by the end I felt so overloaded with salty and sugary sauce on everything. Probably won't go back. read more

This place has become my go-to Chinese restaurant. I've ordered from here at least several dozen times on Uber Eats over the past few years and I've never had a single problem with an order. I often have larger orders and they are consistently accurate and when I call to make a note about my order, they are friendly and helpful. The food here is always well prepared and very good. Nothing too fancy, just solid Chinese food and solid service. read more

After visiting Penn Dot myself and the other half were in need of sustenance and this was the closest. Walking in we were greeted by a hostess who showed us a booth right away. Our server was there within seconds and took our drink orders. On his return he also brought what looked like fried pieces of the stuff egg rolls are wrapped in. Ya I know, not the best description but I'm really not big on Chinese food. Also it must be said that if you order a soda you will pay by the can because they don't have fountain drinks. Now onto the food. I ordered sesame chicken. I was a bit apprehensive because I don't normally like chicken that has a breading and then is tossed in a sauce. The chicken itself was still crispy and tasted fresh. My only real complaint is that I found it lacking in sesame flavor. The sauce it was tossed in was very similar to the general tso the other half had. Mine just has sesame seeds thrown on top. I think my boy might have gotten the best dish. He had singapore style rice noodles. They were really good. Our server was nice and present but not pushy. read more

The BEST in the whole area! Seriously. I've actually been eating here since i was in 5th grade! This isn't going to be the best review...i haven't mastered this Yelping yet. I could exist on the food from here. They have all the favorites;lo-mein,fried rice,general tso's chicken,chow mein,seafood,beef,chicken dishes,something for EVERYONE. The prices are very reasonable too. For example,a won-ton soup and an egg roll (or spring roll) for $3.00. Family owned and operated too and who doesn't want to support that? read more

Major dissapointment- I called to order the lamb and scallops which I saw on their website an the guy said it was lamb and scallions so I got the sesame chicken.i get to the restaurant and low and behold lamb and scallops IS ON THE MENU! then Unlike many places where you get pieces of chicken this was strips of chicken in a sauce that was waaay too heavy. Give it a missand spend the extra 15mins to drive to Monroeville. read more

I've been to this place multiple times in the past year (since finding out about it) and I have to say this is probably the best Chinese Food in Pittsburgh. They don't have the extra oily taste that most Chinese food places have. And my food always taste fresh. The employees are great extremely friendly. I have always got take out never sat in the restaurant and ate. But there are multiple Chinese food places closer to my home but this is the only place I will go to. read more

By far the best Chinese food I've had in years! I ordered takeout: the general tso chicken with fried rice and a spring roll..loved it! It wasn't your average kind of fried rice. Didn't take pictures though lol. First time visit and I'm probably going to become a regular. Won't give it 5 Stars because they only have individual servings for lunch and not evenings. read more

Best chicken egg rolls ever. And fried rice is on point. Hot and sour soup is best in whole area. I've been eating here since I was a little girl. There food is always consistent and fresh. I do wish they would deliver though. read more

Its good Chinese food. They've been here for years and I've been a frequent customer as long as I can remember. Their food is reasonably priced, not greasy and delicious. The staff is super friendly and kitchen is quick. Try the Duck, its the best anywhere. read more

Really fast Take Out orders! Food is delicious! Best General Tso's around and the portion is enough for 3-4 meals!!

I live down the street and I love it there . Number one the food is amazing . Number two the employees are the best. I seriously love their egg rolls! They are huge read more

I wish I could give this establishment a lower rating than a single star. The service here is unbearable, our waitress had an attitude throughout our entire visit. The food literally tasted like horse sh*t- I WISH I was making an exaggeration. We did not receive the food we ordered but we still had to pay for it. DO NOT EAT HERE!!!! read more

The "Amazing Chicken" (which you can get as a lunch special Mon-Sat) actually lives up to its name. It's similar in concept to General Tso's but has thinner, smaller pieces of chicken with much less batter than is usual for a Tso's-type dish. Thus the ratio of chicken to batter is awesome. I also enjoy their Kung Pao, string bean, and broccoli dishes. Their egg rolls and spring rolls are wonderfully fresh and crispy in-house (they soften a little in the bag if you carry out). It's pricier than Number 1 but the food is much better. read more

So good. Staff is very friendly. We dined in last Friday 4/14/17 & I got the General Tso tofu. This is the only place I've been to in the PH/Monroeville/Verona area that does this well. The outside is very crisp & the inside it tofu so its on the softer side. So many other places make it so soggy and the outside isnt crisp at all. This is by far have the best. I will be back and i will get the tofu again! I loveeeeeed it!!!! read more
