    Dumplings
    Cell B.

    Those who can't appreciate Szechuan cuisine shouldn't bash on this place. Szechuan food is supposed to be like this: oily and carb-heavy. A kind old man from Chengdu runs the shop. I talked to him in Szechuan dialect and confirmed that to be true. The picture is not the best but the food is 地道 on point and I would highly recommend it to those who care about genuine Szechuan cuisine.

    Spicy wonton
    Naomi T.

    This review is just for the spicy wonton ($10.80). I think there were at least 10 pieces in it. It actually wasn't that spicy or numbing which is good and I thought the sauce was addictive. Even my friend who doesn't like spicy food thought it was ok. I would get it again.

    Average Sichuan food place. Located within the food court, this place is right in the middle of the food court surrounded by other tasty shops. The spicy menu looked enticing so we decided to give it a try. Got the tan tan noodles which were OK. They were spicy and oily which was good. Unfortunately there was no meat and the noodles were average...they mostly filled you up. Overall try to avoid it for other better food places in the same area. Lots of good food places to choose from right next to this place

    Top: spicy dandan noodles  Bottom: beef noodle soup

    Stay away from the beef noodle at all costs if you value your health and keeping sensation to your taste buds. I ordered a medium spicy level and should've gotten the mild or none because the noodles were literally DROWNED in hot chili oil that clogged up my arteries and left my mouth feeling greasy. There was an unpleasant aftertaste that left my tongue and lips feeling numb. Along with it being too spicy to enjoy it was also salty. I tried my friend's spicy dandan noodles and it was slightly better, relative to mines but it was also overly salty. The only positive thing I can say about the beef noodles is that the beef was very tender. Unfortunately I was only given very few and fatty pieces. Save your money and spend it somewhere else worthy of your appetite.

    The best way to tell if a place is authentic Chinese is if the food is covered in a layer of chili oil that gets everywhere. This place delivers. Parking is plentiful in the Aberdeen parking lot. There are some 15 dishes to choose from. My buddy and I went for some kind of glass noodle soup. As mentioned, this thing is covered in a layer of chili oil. Absolutely beautiful. Nice spicy soup, and bouncy noodles. The food is definitely pricey at $11 a bowl - that's more than pho for crying out loud. This is the reason the place has 3 stars instead of 4. At that price point it would be nice if they offered some other stuff on top.

    Pure junk

    This is down right awful. They charge 12 dollars for a small plate of this! No veggies whatsoever Just glass noodle and junk oil. The business owner should be ashamed of themselves Just disgusting beyond words! Hope they close this "restaurant" soon.

    Hot and sour noodle. So good.
    Nancy L.

    I've been wanting to try this place for a long time. I always opted for other vendors because this one is rather pricey and doesnt come with any drink. I ordered the hot and sour noodle, mild spicy. It came to $8.30 after tax. For a very small portion, it was rather pricey. The mild spiciness was perfect for me as I can't take very spicy food, yet it still had that szechuan kick to it. The noodle was rather delicious and this made up for the price and lack of beverage.

    Dumplings and Dan Dan noodles
    Bryan C.

    Decent Szechuan in your Aberdeen food court. If you're craving that fragrant sichuan spiciness like myself, then you don't really have too many choices (especially if you don't have cash). Luckily, Szechuan House takes card and wechat/Ali pay! I ordered the Dan Dan noodles and the spicy dumplings. Dan Dan noodles 3/5 pretty minimalist - Literally just noodles and ground meat. The first bite was quite tasty (literally just saw a Food Ranger episode on Dan Dan noodles and was intensely craving this taste), second bite not so much and by the time I got near the end of the bowl, I was already pretty done. The sauce was a little on the salty side and lacked the balance to keep it going for the whole meal, but not necessarily bad either. Dumplings 2/5 The only thing good about the dumplings was the Mala (numbing spicy) sauce it came with. These are machine made and the artificially homogenous texture/taste just doesn't work for me. Not worth the $9.

    Chengdu spicy dumplings. Add the hot sauce.
    Lauren L.

    I've been meaning to review this place for sometime and I got beat on the FTR. Oh well. First thing first, they're a bit pricey. Other than that, if you like the Chengdu style "Ma Lat" spicy food. Then you'll like it here. The spicy wuntun is my favourite along with the spicy chicken. Tan tan noodles are good. Different than those places that serve Tan Tan noodles but are not Szechuan. This one if you order spicy has the Szechuan peppercorns. Same goes for their Chengdu spicy dumplings. But the spicy sauce has sugar in it to lessen the heat. I prefer it without the sweetness. For take out fast food Szechuan I give them a good 3.5 stars. Which for me is decent. I keep coming back.

    Dan Dan noodle soup
    Jael L.

    Located in the Aberdeen food court, Szchechuan House offers the typical Szchechuan dishes like dumplings in chili oil, soup noodles, etc. I tried the medium spicy Dan Dan (or tan tan) Noodle Soup. It took about 10 mins to make and was tasty. Although when I think of Dan Dan noodles, I expect more of a peanut, chili oil and minced beef/pork. Here, it was more of a minced beef and chili oil sauce so I fell a little short of the peanuts. Other than the spring onions, I wish it had more vegetables like buk choy or cabbage. The noodles were both soft and a little chewy which I prefer. And the soup itself was good. I would definitely come back, although I wouldn't call this dish really Dan Dan noodle soup. But, for $7.50 I think it's worth it!

    Their food is pretty authentic if you like Sichuan style kinda spicy. My favorite is the hot and sour noodle and spicy pig ear

    Beef looks burnt. Barely a cup of soup.  Grossly overpriced. Nothing special.

Yum! Pork Shu Mai: These ingredients were tip top! I'm not a fan of pork, but I enjoyed this one... whatever they marinated it in was amazing. Stuffed Eggplant: Tasty, too! I love eggplant, especially the stuffed ones. The sauce paired very well and was simply satisfying. Mushroom Noodles: This was honestly a hot mess and hot miss.

What's nice is eating here was very relaxing late in the afternoon. The overall ambiance is spacious and quiet enough for conversation. Either we got lucky missing out on the liveliness, or all the aunties with tea left before we arrived.

We tried the BBQ pork, roasted pork, soya chicken and BBQ duck. BBQ Pork - was standard and pretty good. However, I've definitely had better elsewhere in regard to flavor and crispiness. Roasted Pork - I really enjoyed this as it was moist, savory, and not overtly sweet. Soya Chicken - was ok... kind of dry. BBQ Duck - was ok as well. Definitely be sure to order the pieces without the bones. I opted for them to give me whatever pieces and ended up with barely any meat. Overall, it was good, but not anything extraordinarily amazing. FYI - they are a cash only establishment. We were not aware but luckily there is a grocery store on the second floor of the building with an ATM machine.

We found street parking, though there appeared to be a few spaces behind the restaurant if you're lucky enough to snag one. The ambiance is bright and lively, but people are definitely here for the food. Service was friendly and efficient, with servers, runners, and other staff constantly refilling water and clearing tables. We started with the scallops and vermicelli. They came with plenty of garlic, but the scallops were somewhat overcooked and tougher than I prefer--about three stars for that dish. The mala hotpot with lingcod was the star of the meal, with a wonderful balance of tongue-numbing spice, deep flavor, fish, and vegetables. The clams were equally delicious, served in a sweet and spicy sauce that was so good I kept stopping the staff from clearing the plate so I could spoon more of it over my white rice. The yu choy with garlic sauce had an excellent crunch and plenty of flavor, making it a great vegetable dish to balance the meal. The Coedo Yuzu beer paired beautifully with the spicy food and had a pleasantly sweet, citrusy taste. An excellent meal overall and absolutely worth the visit. Enjoy!

The fish is pretty good. Good flavour - though I have to admit I'm not one to try the spicy, but don't worry the soy no spicy flavour is still pretty flavourful. I got some rice to go with it and I definitely recommend something to go otherwise it's pretty soupy. The other dishes were reflective of a very high quality place. - cucumber salad was excellent.

Nevertheless, we were glad we tried their dinner.

I did not find a single non-Chinese customers when we were there and this place was packed!

The staff works hard to keep things moving, and service is friendly and efficient. The food is the real highlight. Everything arrives beautifully prepared, with generous portions and fresh ingredients. Their Wagyu beef cubes is a MUST-HAVE. Its the best Wagyu beef I have tasted! We also ordered their Peking Duck. It's not the best I have tried but definitely above average. This order comes in 2 dishes.
