Fried rice is too greasy. General tsao chicken is good but the sauce should be on the side or it ruins crispy texture. $50 Fresh fish is good but small, broth is wasteful. Its finding Nemo in the ocean of broth. JUST scoop out the fish n give customer a small bowl of broth. In the remaining broth, kitchen continues adding new fish, spice n water so the broth will be more n more flavorful.

Update; tried it again. Seated 1st as we arrived at exactly 5pm when they open for dinner. Very nice service, thank you.-Their eggplant w.garlic sauce, the eggplant is lightly floured, deep fried then stir fried w.garlic, ginger & green onion. I would have preferred non-floured, not deep fried, just stir fried w.other veggies but this was ok, quite heavy, can only eat 2 pieces.-The Beef w.Scallions = Mongolian Beef. Not sweet at all. Pretty good, not the best Mongolian Beef but still good.-Rice bowls ordered separately.-Fresh hot tea, but Milpitas water ruins it :/Schezuan Cuisine. Not paying $48 for Large Mouth Bass dish. For Chilean Sea Bass yes, for Large Mouth Bass NO.Initial Review;Decent food, not too greasy, food tastes clean here, not too salty, very fresh & hot BUT a long wait and basically they forget that youre sitting at a table still waiting for food after 40 min. Would revisit but dont want to sit there for an hour again for food.Takeout orders are insane in the amount of orders being received. Several customers waiting for the food they called in for an hour ago were told to wait further, after these customers waited another 30 min several of them just left without any food. So..... service is bad here. That and they must be severely understaffed.

Had the green beans, always a staple when I try new places. They were good, not great. Would I order them again, yes, but nothing I would crave over. I will try mapo tofu next time, another staple to judge by.Tried the mapo tofu and the salt and pepper fish. Loved both of them.

Pros: Food is amazing! Like 7 stars. It’s pretty authentic Sichuan food, very spicy and flavorful. The portions are pretty good. And the price is decent, for the Bay Area…Cons: the service is pretty bad. As in they are short on a lot of front wait staff. There is one waitress as mentioned in a couple of the comments that is incredibly rude. We were ordering and she rudely interrupted us, then proceeded to tell us there were no more noodles (the table next to us ordered noodles shortly after…)

I went here last night with my friends. My friends had her birthday party here. She been here for over a decade and she chose this place. And this place blows my mind. Fresh ingredients . Tasty food. Chef special choice dishes. Everything is fantastic. The service are very nice too. It’s literally my favorite spicy Chinese food in the whole Bay Area. I really enjoy the food. If you don’t know what to order ask the chef. They will make you something special.

OMG! Its salty! Its hot! Its spicy! Its DELICIOUS!We went here for dinner. The order consisted of:Fried chicken w. dry chilli: This is a must have. The salty, spicy, tangy and the dried chilli flavors are so addictive. We ended up getting a second order for this one. The chef was sweet and gave us more chicken than the first order.Chicken Chow mein: This was actually a customized version of the combination chow mein. Do not be thrown off by the lo mein noodles used in this entree. It tastes amazing and has a generous amount of chicken.Fish w. Chilli Sauce:Absolutely delectable. The generous use of sichuan pepper corns, garlic, dried chilli and all other fresh ingredients was apparent. This again was a customized version of the Little lamb w. Chilli Sauce.The staff is very friendly and willingly offer their suggestions if you are spoilt for choices or have a question about the menu. They seemed to willingly customize the meat in the entrees. Our server also gave us a few good pointers to help order for our next visit.Do try out their hot tea. It really helps unlock your tongue and prepares your palate for the next mouthful.Ambience: Casual. Lots of open spaceQuantity: GenerousParking: Ample space. Although you might need to get lucky to find a spot closer to the restaurant.Times visited: 1

Went there with a Chengdu friend, she said its pretty decent Si Chuan style, liked 涼粉so much, 豬腳also pretty good, and service was really friendly, couple dishes were modified to very modern style.If you liked real Si Chuan food, it would a good choice.

Visited for lunch. Very tasty and spicy Szechuan food. Kung Pao Chicken was just like you get in China. Spicy wonton was soupy and delicious. Ask for the lunch menu. Reasonable. Will go back to try other dishes like cumin lamb and chili chicken.

Very good Szechuan style dishes. Funny thing is there specialize in fresh noodles. So cant wait to try the noodles if the food there is that good already.Just tried two noodle dishes for lunch both very good only issue was missing that special price for portion size, that makes you say Ill be coming back. Overall both noodle dishes were good.

Little oily but good flavors, lots of garlic. We asked for less spicy. Bigger portion sizes but fits for the price.Not much meat in the dan dan noodle so a little doughy. Cauliflower dish was very good. Bean curd and pork was alright.
