Food was very good. The sauces for the dishes was legitimate Szechuan flavor. I mostly ate the non spicy dishes and they were very good. I spoke with the staff and they said there is minimal additives, msg, etc, they make their soups and stocks from scratch read more

Service but slow food looks good, area is quiet and peaceful. Continent location pork is kinda fat good for people who like fat meat read more

The foods are good. You can ask them to eliminate spicy. Pretty good for my mom that doesn't eat spicy foods. Pricey though but I guess that's how it is with Szechuan restaurants. Will come back to try their fish next time, read more

A Rare Gem of Authentic Sichuan Cuisine Yesterday, I discovered a hidden gem: Chuan Wa Zi (川娃子)!Szechuan Delicious! Every single dish I tasted--from the authenticity of the flavors to the freshness of the ingredients and the precision of the wok heat (huohuo)--absolutely blew me away. Usually, entering a Sichuan restaurant means being blasted by "spicy, spicy, spicy" and "numbing, numbing, numbing," with choices limited to just water-boiled, sour soup, or mala flavors. However, the chef at Chuan Wa Zi uses only the freshest ingredients to create dishes that are pure and original. My friends were all full of praise! The Highlights of the Meal * Morel Mushroom & Chicken Consommé: Served in a double-boiled stew pot, the unique sweetness of the morels combined with the delicate fragrance of the chicken was so addictive I couldn't stop at just one bowl. * Braised Lamb with Radish: This featured skin-on young lamb--tender and perfectly cooked yet retaining a delightful chew. The radish was braised until deeply flavorful, and the cilantro garnish was the perfect touch, elevating the aroma without overpowering the richness of the lamb. There was zero gamey smell. Eating the lamb skin provided a boost of collagen--a truly nourishing and warming dish. * Chengdu Baby Cabbage (Er Cai): Stir-fried in a rich broth, it was incredibly sweet with a hint of bitterness that perfectly balanced the richness of the lamb. According to traditional wisdom, "five flavors nourish the five organs." Sichuan's baby cabbage is only in season for one month during spring. It's known to clear "heart fire," refresh the mind, and improve sleep. * Sautéed Pork with Celtuce (Lettuce Stem): The pork was incredibly silky and tender, achieved not through baking soda or heavy starch, but purely through masterly knife work and heat control. Paired with the crisp celtuce, it was a perfect harmony of "silky" and "crunchy." * Sichuan Jelly Noodles (Liangfen): Added at the last minute, Jing (host of Oushang Beauty Spa) claimed these are the most authentic and smooth jelly noodles in Greater Los Angeles. Made purely from mung bean starch with no additives, the texture was clean and soft. The seasoning was light and balanced--just a simple blend of soy sauce, sesame oil, vinegar, chili oil, garlic, and cilantro. From start to finish, there was no overwhelming spiciness or discomfort--just a comforting and refreshing dining experience that leaves you wanting more. House-Made Specialties It's worth mentioning that the owner personally prepares all the cold appetizers, such as the Smoked Pressed Duck and the platter of Handmade Sausages, Cured Pork (Larou), Cured Ribs, and Spicy Pork Head Meat. They were fragrant and meaty without any of the oily aftertaste often found in over-dried meats. We saw many people calling in to order these platters to go as snacks for drinks (xiajiu), and we definitely plan to do the same next time! Chef's Recommendations & Hidden Menu They offer a variety of other specialties like Pork Tripe in Golden Soup, Spicy Eel with Glass Noodles, and Basu "Glutton" Bullfrog. Some dishes, like our Lamb and Chicken Soup, must be pre-ordered by phone. Their classic Sichuan stir-fries--Flash-fried Kidney, Mao Xue Wang, Laziji (Chili Chicken), and Twice-cooked Pork--are all spectacular. They even serve Xian Shao Bai (Savory Steamed Pork Belly), a nearly lost classic that requires incredible knife skills and offers a perfect balance of sweet and savory. A Sweet Ending To wrap up, the owner's wife treated us to their Handmade Fermented Rice Soup (Laozao) with four-colored mini tangyuan (glutinous rice balls). Each color had a different natural flavor--sour fruit, rich sesame, and red bean--with no artificial coloring. The soup had a delicate fermented aroma and silky egg drops, providing a perfect ending to our feast. Closing Thoughts It has been a long time since I've had food this authentic that wasn't "scary spicy." I am truly grateful to find a restaurant that treats cooking as an art and operates with such a strong conscience and craftsmanship. read more

The Kung Pao Chicken at this establishment is simply divine. Service is impeccable, especially since it's just this one older super friendly (and so patient) gentleman running around taking care of all the tables; that man is a saint putting up with likely one of the rudest group of diners who walked in as we were finishing up. Of note, their mild spicy feels like more a medium spicy/numby to me lol, as are most authentic Sichuanese dishes. Loved the mom and pop shop vibe. Would recommend! read more

This place is pretty good for szechuan food. The best fish was the cold pork belly with garlic sauce. The meat was tender and there was noodles underneath it and the sauce was very good. The steamed pork slices were also very good and hearty. The wonton in chili oil was surprisingly also good. The boiled fish with pickles and green beans were decent. The overall taste of this place is interesting in that the mala isn't as strong as other Szechuan places. So that might be a turn off for some. The staff was nice and brought out the dishes in a timely order but kind of inattentive at times like filling the water. The atmosphere feels nice and quiet and homely. read more

What a nice surprise! Authentic Sichuan dishes, delicious flavors, and very reasonably priced. Definitely worth a visit.

Food is still good, and even after seven months the prices are still the same. The menu is the same minus a few items that they blocked out. Rice is $1.50 a bowl/per person. Some more specificity: Hot & spicy fish w pig intestine $26.99 - this seemed like they used grass carp because of the thin cut of the fish. Some pieces still had fish scales and fish bones. Be careful. Some celery was in it too. The flavor was excellent. Chicken with Szechuan hot pepper $15.99 - Chicken is fried. There was thin wafers of something fried. I would guess it's like potato chips. It's not sweet enough to be banana/plantain. The flavor is really good. Fried sauce dry noodle $9.99 - I would pass on this because I would like more meat. The flavor is sour and peppery, which isn't really my preference. It's not a bad dish though. This is a hot noodle without soup. Service is good. They pack up leftovers for you. read more

I was hoping this would be a new location for some spicy Sichuan dishes but I felt like it wasn't very spicy at all. The location is right off valley and there is street parking. The shop had about 10 tables including round tables for larger groups. It was pretty empty when we got there but more parties came later at night. They give complimentary roasted peanuts that were a nice appetizer. They have a lot of variety on the menu, and maybe we got the wrong dishes, but the mapo tofu was just okay and the spicy boiled beef tasted overly tenderized. I was expecting the mapo tofu to be a numbing and spicy flavor, but it was only mildly spicy and the waiter never asked for my spicy level, so im assuming this is just one spicy level. The spicy beef was primarily chili oil and I didn't really like the quality of the beef. A bowl of rice is $1.50, which is kind of necessary for these types of dishes. I think I would return to try other dishes, such as the rattan fish filet or gizzards. The Liang fen also looked like it could be good. But hopefully the spicy level hits better the next time around. read more

3.5/5 I'm a big spicy food guy and was very excited when my wife brought up trying Szechuan Delicious. We came in for dinner, got seated, and were given salted peanuts while we were looking over the menu. Everything sounded so good on the menu, and we decided to go with the Mapo Tofu and the Szechuan Boiled Beef. The waiter did not ask us how spicy we wanted our dish, so we were not sure if we could adjust it. We also added on a bowl of rice for $1.50. When the dishes came out, we were a bit disappointed because they were not spicy at all to me. Maybe my spice tolerance is very high, but even my wife thought that it wasn't as spicy. She said it was mild at best. Regardless, the mapo tofu still had flavor and the boiled beef was tender and very saucy. I think we will return just to give this place another try. Maybe we will order different things and ask if we can make it spicier. read more

Very good Szechuan food! The food is well seasoned but not over spicy. The inside looks way much bigger and cleaner than the outside. Highly recommended! read more

I came here to order to-go and everything went well, including the eating part! The waiter who took my to-go order was patient and kind as I was trying to decide what to order and I only had to wait around 10min before I drove 25min to eat it. The food was still delicious after the drive! The noodles are a must have - great spicy numbness flavor but without the butt-kicking spicyness that makes me want to die. The wontons did not have a lot of sauce but has a thin wrapper and flavorful pork filling. It had a mild numbing spice flavor but the pork really shines. Highly recommend and will definitely come back to try their other dishes! read more

What a solid spot for Szechuan food. They only had two workers when I came in on Sunday so it was a bit weird when I walked in and decided to grab menus and sit myself down. When the waiter finally came he was friendly. He seemed to be able to speak partial English and mandarin so had no issue actually ordering. In terms of food I gave these three items a try. Toothpick Lamb - A classic and this place makes it well. Lamb is fried and smothered with chillis. It's not super spicy but you can taste a bit of the numbing. It's delicious. (5/5) Mapo Tofu - A classic dish for Szechuan food. This place makes it as good as any other place. Solid. (4.5/5) Fried Sauce Dry Noodles - Surprisingly this was pretty good and for $10, nothing really to complain about. It's a pretty basic dish but it was tasty. (4/5) Overall this place is definitely a hole in the wall spot and can easily be missed. Parking is on the street. Wasn't too busy on a weekend, but totally worth a try if you're craving some spicy food. Also pricing is very reasonable here, spent about $43 for 3 full dishes which I had plenty of leftovers. White rice is an extra $1.50 which isn't bad. read more

We were craving for some spicy food and something new. This place it's our first time here. The inside is very clean and very simple. Good for large party as well as small. The only thing is the echo. Our next table was super loud and plus the echo, I couldn't even hear the person sitting in from me. The food was good. We ordered a fish dish and the eel vermicelli. Our spicy level was already mild and was still spicy. The experience was not so pleasant since we could barely have a normal conversation, but the food made up for it. read more

what a great find! came here with our family and ordered zha jiang, pork belly, water spinach and the spicy sour jelly and everything was excellent. we eat chinese food in SGV 2-3 days a week, every week and this is the best new restaurant we have tried in a while. even the spicy peanuts appetizer was a unique twist on something so familiar. my kids also ate up the noodles and pork belly, so everyone liked it. great service as well read more

I hate having to update this review, but I cannot stand by my original 5 star review anymore. I loved this place when I first tried it. It's a small mom and pop joint, so I don't enjoy dropping the rating. When we first went, we told them we liked everything very spicy, and man did they put us to the test. But, that is what we wanted. The next four times we went, nothing was very spicy despite the same instructions. Worst of all is despite the pop doing all the cooking, the flavors have really warped over the last few months. What were all delicious, perfectly balanced dishes have all become overly sour. I just haven't really enjoyed anything much the last two times, and sadly I don't think I'll be headed back. There is better nearby, which kills me cause this place is literally around the corner from me. I just don't like it anymore. read more

Gotta agree with another reviewer that they have potentials but the quality is inconsistent. Ordered crispy fried pork intestines and spicy dry noodle. The crispy fried pork wasn't crispy at all. It does have good flavors, but sometimes the intestines are a bit gamey. The spicy dry noodle has good noodles, but the sauce is way too salty. Luckily they didn't mix it, so i removed the sauces as much as i could, and can eat the noodles with a little bit of sauce. read more

TLDR: Really flavorful and tolerable spice that won't give you heart burn. It's not particularly a numbing spice contest here, but you will def enjoy the balance of acids and fats from these dishes. An amazing spot I forgot all about. I came here when it first opened back in 2022 and the food was good, but it was nothing to rave about. Came back on a whim because it was one of 3 restaurants about to close around 8pm (I didn't have dinner) so I picked this spot. And, boyyyyy, was I so glad. The vibe was quiet and had some low chinese music in the bg. It felt like a Jonathan Gold moment :') Each dish really was a home run for me. 1. Hot and Sour Jelly - wasn't hot at all, but had the perfect Sichuan flavor balanced with sweetness 2. Fried Sauce Dry Noodle - incredible al dente texture and absolutely sooo flavorful 3. Sautéed Beef Tenderloin w/ Pepper - absolutely delicious well-balanced acidity and spice profile. This dish has glass noodles which really absorb all the juices! Everything was perfect and our server even made the effort to place the plates in a well presented way as each dish came out. Highly recommend this spot because I do not want it to go out of business! Prices are very fair considering the huge portions too! read more

I gave a 5 star because I really want this business to do well! 1. The service was great for a Chinese place. It's one lady working the whole front. She was nice and attentive, she was even kind to the delivery pick up people that came in, and packed the to go for me at the end of my meal! 2. Delicious food, good portions. Comparatively, it's the lower price of what you can find of quality Chinese food. I don't recommend getting the fresh cut fish because they actually fillet the fish so there are some fine bones and it's not cleaned very well. Flavor still good and didn't bother me. The cold noodle is a must, less on the tangy side and more on spice. I do love that the chili in this dish is very clean and doesn't have that burnt taste some other places have. I was only able to try 2 dishes but I would definitely come back for more. 3. The restaurant is very spacious but it's not a bougie place. Come here for a good meal, not the view. There's definitely bigger tables that can seat large parties. 4. Parking is probably the worst since it's mostly streets and it's on a big street. But not difficult to find parking though you may have to walk a few steps. Would love to see this restaurant thrive. read more

I like Sichuan food but when every single dish is peppercorn OIL overload, it gets tiring fast... It is authentic but that being said, I would have preferred a little bit more variety in their base. I wasn't a big fan of their Sichuan fried chicken dish - it's not as crunchy and savory as the original (Chongqing chicken). I get they're trying to put their own spin on it but I really believe in that saying, don't fix what's not broken... and screw 1997, geopolitics doesn't have to divide cuisine. Got their fried sauce dried noodles and that was pretty good. I probably wouldn't get it again but it did its job. The wonton in chili oil was probably the best out of the three that I got. Flavorful and authentic with the right amount of chili oil, not too much where it's drenched but not too little where it's parched. With so many great Sichuan options in the area, it's difficult to commit. I probably wouldn't go out of my way to return... but the customer service was good (even though our server didn't speak English... at least he was pleasant and helpful). We appreciate the (southern) hospitality! read more

Tried the Sichuan green beans but they weren't spicy at all! No peppercorns used and I asked them to correct it and they put in some chili peppers, but it didn't have the Sichuan spicy flavor which was disappointing. The Kung pao chicken was pretty good and was pretty spicy. Service was alright but the staff don't speak much English. read more

The restaurant doesn't look like much from the outside but the interior is quite nice and the food is amazing. A warning is that the food is quite spicy, even for someone used to eating reasonable amounts of spice. The food is authentic Szechuan cuisine with my personal favorites including the toothpick lamb and sour fish. Service is very attentive and the waitress checks in after serving the first dish to ask whether you want your food more or less spicy. Prices are reasonable and I look forward to returning soon! read more

Found this place on Yelp. There's parking behind the restaurant, you enter through a small alley. The server did not speak much English but he was extremely kind and we got our messages across. Large tables available with lazy Susan for bigger parties. Most of the items on the menu are spicy. Even when it's listed as not spicy, there will still be a kick to it, depending on what you order. Food comes out pretty quickly. We ordered the chicken soup with pork stomach ($30.99) but the Chinese yam chicken soup ($30.99) was brought out instead. It had a Chinese herb taste and was delicious and comforting. There was half a chicken in there with yam chunks. We also ordered two other stir fry dishes of sliced beef and noodles and chicken and veggies which were greasy but very good. You'll see many dishes cooked with frog, goose, beef, eel, chicken, lamb, turtle, duck blood and etc. Pork brain was crossed off and no longer offered. They have so many dishes to try, I can't wait to go back and test out the others! read more

It must be an acquired taste for the dishes here. Some dishes were excellent, others not so much. There was a repetition of the same sauce in different dishes, and I don't find the flavors in general to be compelling. Of note were the spicy pork hock, spicy carp with peppers, and the stir-fried chayote. There may be other excellent dishes to try, but it is hard to spot them from a large menu. read more

I tried this the other day with my co-workers. I tried to order the phone, but the order taker didn't understand my English and requested someone who speaks Chinese. So my coworker helped to order. She said it would take 30 min because we had such a big order. We had about 7-8 dishes. She called me within 20 min to say everything was ready. When we got there, the restaurant was completely empty so I wondered why such a long wait if there's no one there. She then said they didn't have one of the dishes we ordered and asked if we wanted a Substitute. We then waited while the cook made the dish. It made me wonder why she didn't ask me when she told me the food was ready. I think she's pretty new because she didn't know how to use the cash register and needed my co-worker to help her. When we got the food, the portioning is smaller than chengdu taste. The food also just tasted okay. All in all, not bad but I wouldn't go back. I would stick with my usual Szechuan Impression or Chengdu Taste. read more

SUPER DELICIOUS. The food lives up to the name and more!!! I've grown up here in the SGV and have eaten Szechuan food my whole life. This place is legit. Some of the dishes we ordered: -shredded chicken was so flavorful!! -Fen Zhen Rou (THIS IS A MUST get for me. It's a Szechuan specialty that I've been hard pressed to find offered in restaurants here. My parents make it at home but they make it here a little differently and it is so MOIST AND GOOD. GET THIS) -Bullfrog was so tender and soft -Mungbean Jelly Glass noodles with this delicious chili sauce that my mom says she can't make as well at home -Gang Guo Kao Yu (dry wok roasted fish) - AMAZING skin and then the tender soft fish underneath that skin I didn't take more photos- the whole family was too busy enjoying all the dishes and forgot to take photos. :') 10/10 would come again and next time I'm bringing all my friends read more

Give them a try and you will be back again and again. read more

This restaurant is appropriately named: Delicious, indeed! The food is fantastic. I liked / loved everything I ate. My dining party and I were hopeful, based on the reviews, and based on the salty peanuts they serve as appetizer. And the food did not disappoint. The name of this place could be Delightful and Delicious or Delightfully Delicious Szechuan. Their Kung Pao chicken is among the best I've had (and I must've had my favorite dish in at least a few hundred Chinese restaurants across America. The Szechuan dried green headland were also great. Plump, crisp beans with a tasty meat sauce. Rounding out the meal were scrambled eggs with tomatoes, potatoes with minced meat, and sweet and sour soup (which did seem to be missing pepper or other spice). All around, I highly recommend! Ps, for the non-American Chinese taste, this restaurant offers (what this ABC tends to refer to as) more exotic, authentic menu items... read more

One of the best ways to know a place is good is if it's popular with the locals. I was the only none Chinese person in there the whole time we were in there. Just a warning, it's best to come with someone who speaks Chinese as it's was clear no one working there really understood English. That's fine though cause the place is nice, clean, lots of tables. Service is a bit slow because everyone working there is older, I think, family owned. But the food itself is perfection! We got the chicken cold noodle, which has a bit of a kick and very flavorful, though could've had more chicken. The shredded pork with green bell peppers, a classic dish we don't see often. Spicy for sure, but super flavorful, but be careful of too much oil. Lastly, the mapo tofu is some of the best I've ever had. Not too spicy, lots of Sichuan peppercorn flavor instead. I couldn't stop eating it! Price are also great. All in all, I'm gonna be returning to try other things soon! read more

Deciding I wanted something with less frills for my birthday dinner, I found Szechuan Delicious through Yelp on a separate page with only 13 or so reviews. Having tried all the Szechuan food in the 626 and Rowland area, I can't say I've found a favorite. Some are either too oily or too salty. Szechuan Delicious was such a pleasant surprise! When we first got to the location, my fiancé was a bit hesitant due to the location not being in a well-lit and populated spot. But aren't we glad we went in! You can tell it's ran by a family and they take tremendous pride in their food. All the food was not only authentic, it felt homemade. We ordered the classics like 水煮魚 (fish) and was in awe when it didn't show up in the usual frozen fish filets that restaurants use. It was actual pieces of live fish (some bones included)! Since then we have gone back multiple times to try more of their dishes. We always leave satisfied. Advocating for this restaurant since in the times we've went, it has been pretty empty. Want to support this new business as it's arguably the best spicy food you can find in SGV! read more
