    Judging by the fact that there is always a line to get in here at night, Szechuan Café should be nothing short of five stars. It's our third time here and this time we are here because we got a gift certificate for Christmas. Luckily we got here before 630 because thats when the line forms at the door. And the takeout line is almost as long. This family run establishment runs like a perfectly greased wheel. Everyone who is working here does every job. You never go long without an unfilled water glass or beverage. Plates are cleared discreetly and quietly without interrupting you. The table settings include high-quality napkins which are sadly missing today at many of the places we dine. And you don't have to ask for extras because they always give you a couple extra. Plus everyone who works here smiles at every table as they walk by. It's just really good old fashioned service that makes our experience even better. But none of that would matter if the food didn't live up. Well the food does live up to our expectations and in fact often times exceeds our expectations. The portion sizes are large. Presentation is wonderful and the food is great. There aren't enough superlatives. I just know that I'm glad to have found this place and we will be back often.

    Decent place. Quick friendly service. Food is great. Order takeout unless you like sitting in tight quarters with neighboring tables.

    Hands-down, the best Chinese food in Maryland. Not just in Baltimore in the state of Maryland…read more Peter Chang broke the mold with this restaurant. We love the food. We love the service. We love the drinks. We love to creativity. It's also in a row house in Baltimore that gives amazing vibes.

    My boyfriend decided to try out NiHao for date night. It had been recommended to me by friends but…read moreI just never dined until this past date night. There is ample seating whether you want to be at bar, have a larger party or need something more intimate. The staff was very kind. For my entree I ordered the Hot Chili Oil Beef Stew. It was massive. Lol our waiter said that the bowl made it look larger than what it actually was and that it was manageable for one person........ that was like something you could order for the table. Or you can order individual servings of rice and finish it with at least 2 people. The flavor was amazing. The level was spice was perfect, the aromatics were present and fragrant. If you're a fan of spice and savory goodness, I highly recommend. My boyfriend ordered the Wuxi Sweet and Sour chicken. He liked it, I tried it as well. He said he would rate it an 8/10. We both agreed that if the chicken was a lil crispier it would've been even better but flavor of the sauce was nice and the chicken was juicy. His meal was definitely able to be finished by one person. He finished the whole dish while I left with a massive to go container. For drinks we shared a Sake and then I ordered the NiHao Lady, which was very tasty and he ordered a spicy margarita (I think). Either that or a mojito but he enjoyed it. Would definitely recommend and I will be coming back for their dim sum/Chinese tapas.
