Clean environment , excellent service , delicious food. For people who like spicy Highly recommended Best food in town

Soup Bao (6)
Jonarose V.

It's been about 3 years since I've been here and I just want to say that it's so great how much this place has maintained its consistency of food. The egg drop soup is one of the best here. The XLB was amazing. The couples tendon was refreshingly spicy and great texture. And the mapo tofu, just fine. I enjoyed my solo date here enjoying some of my favorites and it was so comforting eating all of this. I'll definitely be back for sure on my next trip. I just wished that they kept the steam egg dish. It was my all time favorite, however they discontinued back in 2021 I think.

Fantastic Singapore Noodles togo !!!
Michael C.

I ordered the Singapore noodles with chicken n shrimp as well as light on the oil recently togo. Very moist, soft, plentiful in ingredients and very delicious with a curry spice vibe to it. The protein in it was very well-cooked. The noodles were the most exciting part of the dish imo being very tasty, savory with enough cumin spice and thin like angel hair. The service was very friendly and efficient.

Beautiful restaurant I really enjoyed this place. I went with Family and we had an amazing time. The service was good and the food was so delicious we especially loved the fried shrimp. It came with jalapeños and it was just so good. The food is seasoned and we did not need any soy sauce. Great place to go with family.

Orange beef and Eggplant With Garlic Sauce
Linn P.

I've had this twice now to go. They're open quite late and is busy everytime I swing in. I love eggplant garlic sauce and orange beef. I do enjoy their 3 pepper fried chicken but normally the amount of chicken is not a whole lot compared to orange chicken. The eggplant dish is plentiful and flavorful. The food comes in a nice reusable to go bag which has come in handy for me already.

Might need to make this a monthly routine with visiting Jason and Lyndsey after shopping. Had not ate and Lyndsey recommended Szechuan Spice, this is her go to. Place is nice conveniently located in strip center. I was open to trying their usual go to meal. Consisting of: Three Favor Pepper Chicken and Beef stir friend udon. The Three Favor Pepper Chicken is their specialty, when I walked in, I saw a couple of tables with it. The presentation is nice, it comes in a cornucopia. The popcorn styled fried chicken is spiced with garlic, dried chili and peppercorn. All blend well that we almost finished it all in one sitting. Was able to have some as leftovers for lunch the next day. My only gripe was that it had a ton of dried chili's. (Reason for the one less star) The beef stir fried udon was just as flavorful and enjoyed every bit along with the company! I can taste why it's their usual go to meal. Aside from the excessive dried chili's (I like spice, but at some point, the chili's just become overbearing) I wouldn't change a thing. I had packed my food to go and forgot to take it with me. Thankfully they answered quickly and told them I forgot my food but was on my way back to pick it up. When I returned, it was waiting at the entry.

Singapore noodles
Sharon F.

The house special singapore noodles is my go to meal at Szechuan Spice. Thin, stir-fried rice vermicelli with a distinct savory, slightly spicy, aromatic curry flavor with pork, chicken and shrimp. Three favor pepper chicken is excellent and the Dan dan noodles were ok. Service was great. I was introduced to a point system where you get discounts on your purchases. The soft glow of the overhead lights created a warm ambiance that encourage me to linger. The staff is friendly and I will definitely go back to visit.

Crispy Hot fish
Lisa J.

Everything was exceptional on this Sunday midday visit to Szechuan Spice restaurant ! This was my first visit and it did not disappoint. From the onset of arriving we were seated immediately and the environment was comfortable and attention was immediate. My friend and I ordered the chili oil wontons and couples tendon for apps, which is always a MUST order for me when visiting any authentic Szechuan spot, and though I've had better wontons, the couples tendon was a 10 outta 10, along with the Singapore noodles ( we ordered the combination and got an extra spice level added) - sooo good, and ordered the crispy spicy fish.. Very crispy , flavorful, and not too spicy as to overwhelm the fish! Excellent!! If you're ever in Pearland , a time well spent!!

Stir-Fried Flat Noodle With Beef
Bryan N.

I didn't expect to find decent Chinese food outside of Chinatown, especially in pearland, but Szechuan Spice delivered. Boasting a huge menu, it would probably take me several visits to try even half their options. For this visit I went with the beef flat noodles, the orange beef, and the salt and pepper calamari. The salt and pepper calamari was my favorite order. The dish came out with large pieces of crispy and balanced calamari rings sitting on a bed of vegetables. The dish wasn't too salty and can definitely be eaten without rice. The crunch and flavor of the calamari was amazing and the vegetables complimented the squid perfectly. The orange beef also impressed me. The breading on the beef has a very subtle crunch and the sauce is flavorful and sweet. This is a dish best eaten with rice. The flat noodles were a good dish to have as a side to balance out the flavors of the others but was relatively lacking in flavor on its own. I've had better flat noodles with a smokier taste, which is my personal preference. The service was quick, and the place wasn't busy at all on a Saturday night. The restaurant had a calm and relaxing atmosphere and pretty quiet. 7/10 for now, but I definitely need to try more items here since I'm sure I haven't tried the best of what Szechuan Spice has to offer.

This was my first time ordering from here. The chicken was a bit soggy, but the sauce had great flavor. The fried rice was also really good. I might give this restaurant another try to see if it's better next time.

Alexis Clareen H.

So normally I would go to Chinatown to get my spicy kick in but wanted to try something around Pearland. This gem is WORTH it. First, the spice level is PERFECT. Although some could argue to make it spicier, I like mine where I know I can feel it and still enjoy the tingling sensation and quality of food at the same time. Second, the portions are HUGE. We ordered: -three favor chicken -boiled slice fish -Singapore rice noodles -mapo tofu I love the presentation and creativity that was put into it. The crispy layers of the chicken coated with the seasoning were delicious and the tangy sauce with the boiled fish was phenomenal. Could never go wrong with the mapo tofu and the sauce was thick! (Usually it's watered down elsewhere so I appreciated the fact that it was flavorful this time). We came on a Sunday morning and it was slightly busy. But the servers were very helpful and made rounds as needed. The place itself is huge and cozy. 12/10 recommendations around Pearland. Also - better to come dine in than ordering online due to portion difference

Food: 3.8/5 Service: 5/5…read moreAmbiance: 4.5/5 Overall: 4/5 I was really excited to get to try out this place and this was a fairly good first impression. Whenever we walked in for dinner around half the tables were full of people and service was still very fast. The interior of the restaurant is nice but nothing too standout from other Chinese restaurants. We got cream cheese puffs, house spicy wide noodle soup, a chicken dish, soup dumplings, cream baos , and a fish dish, and all of it was fairly good. My least favorite was the cheese puffs, which were incredibly hot but I didn't find much very special about either the filling nor the crunchy wrapper. My next critique is their handmade noodles. It is personal preference, but I prefer my noodles to be a lot more chewy and on the more al dente side of things, rather than the more soft noodles we got (both the wide and the original noodles). As for what I liked, it was just about everything else we got. The house noodle soup was nice and comforting, not being super heavy but still carrying good flavor (I would ask for the regular version and add in spice after tasting the broth). Both the fish and chicken dishes that we got were very interesting and I especially enjoyed the lightness of the fish dish. The soup dumplings we got were very flavorful, well balanced, and had a very bouncy yet soft wrapper texture. The cream baos, though admittedly lacking some vanilla and texture consistency across each bao, were still really good and comparable to ones you'd find in Bellaire. Overall, my experience was fairly good and I would go here again if I find myself in the Pearland area.

5 Stars - Authentic Szechuan that absolutely nails the classics…read more During our short trip to Houston, as a custom, we were determined to find real Szechuan food, and luckily we found Hu's Kitchen. The location is a bit unassuming, and parking is definitely tough (the spaces are very shallow), but the second we walked through the doors and smelled the Szechuan peppercorns, I knew we were in exactly the right place. I generally judge a Szechuan restaurant by their 夫妻肺片 (Fuqi Feipian)--which they cleverly name "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" on the menu. They completely nailed it. The beef, tripe, and tendon were incredibly cohesive together, yet you could tell each component was prepared and marinated in a slightly different way to perfectly highlight its specific texture. The chili oil was right on the spot. We went through a massive bowl of rice just eating this dish alone. Honestly, if I weren't feeding a family of four, I could have just ordered that and been perfectly happy. While the Fuqi Feipian proves their skill with dry dishes, the 水煮魚片 (Fish in Szechuan Hot Chili Oil) proves their skill with wet ones. It's another must-order. The execution was flawless--we didn't just finish the tender fish chunks, we ate every last piece of cabbage soaked in that incredible chili broth. For my two daughters who can't handle the heat, we ordered the fried rice, garlic pork ribs with onion, and the 紅燒獅子頭 (Giant Meatball with Cabbage). The giant meatball was spectacular. The kids completely devoured it on their own, but I managed to steal a bite, and it instantly brought back childhood memories of exactly how this dish is supposed to taste. We also had the Dan Dan Noodles, which were great and rounded out the meal perfectly. I loved all of the dishes we tried. Should we ever find ourselves in Houston again, we will absolutely be revisiting this hidden gem.

No complaints here since we were starving from an 8 hour road trip. The Dan Dan Noodles...I had high expectations but sadly this dish fell short. I recommend Hu's Cooking to use a bigger bowl and more sauce because it was difficult to mix the noodles and the sauce wasn't...saucing, unfortunately. I wish there was more flavor in this dish. The Scallion Pancake was super over-fried and oily. See image in my review. The outer parts of the pancake were fried to a crisp and only a small circumference in the center stayed chewy. I know Chinese tends to be oily but this pancake soaked up way too much oil. Half a Peking duck: super great price for so much meat. The difficulty when eating this dish is gnawing the meat off the sharp bones of the duck. Mapo Tofu with white rice: pretty easy staple, no complaints here. Dinner on a Saturday was packed but we got seated quickly and food arrived fast.

For appetizer, I ordered the Taiwanese Popcorn Chicken. It was crispy. The flavors of the Thai basils were almost nonexistent, and the flavor was not really there, compare to other places I had.
