    Decent Sichuan restaurant. Parking is a little tough to find but doable. String beans had plenty of spice if you pay a little extra but the beans weren't crisp enough in my opinion. Still tasted alright. Spicy shredded potatoes were good! Service was attentive.

    The food here is absolutely amazing! Every dish is bursting with flavor, and the service is incredibly warm and welcoming. It's hard not to fall in love with this place. My favorites are the stir-fried beef tripe and chicken gizzards. So delicious!

    This place has very authentic Sichuanese foodfood. This service is also very good, because it has a very narrow strip of space so it's bit crowded I see a lot of people are doing takeout .

    The food is so good and in a big portion. The price is very reasonable and the food is so worth and good. Highly recommended. Will come back again. If you want to try some authentic food, here is where you need to go.

    Very good! I love the chicken and duck here! This is my third time, I've tried different kinds of dishes, and all of them are amazing! And the service is super good. They even give you some appetizers for free.

    If you love spicy food, Delicious Chengdu is the place for you! Considered authentic Chengdu, the food here is prepared on the spicy side as the norm. You do have an option to order it mild. If you don't, most of the dishes will come with a bit of heat. Each table is set up with a QR code that will identify your table and provide you with a menu. You can place your order on your phone and the server will bring your order to the table to make that process pretty much contactless. The smoked tea duck was the big winner of the meal. The duck had crispy skin with meat that was tender and flavorful. The only other mild dish we had was the cucumber salad which was refreshing. All others we ordered were "as normally prepared" and were pretty spicy at medium heat using chili peppers including the stir fried green beans. Their take on Dan Dan Noodles was a bit different than what you would find in other Sichuan restaurants. The swai fish fillet with the mala sauce was very tasty but quite numbing! The food in general was actually good, but I don't think extraordinary to deserve some of the media hype it has received. (Or am I missing something?) Portions are generous though and service was reasonable for a contactless environment. Overall, this place can definitely be easily described as deliciously Chengdu!

    Delicious food, great service, great ambience. No complaints anytime I come here and I always look forward to ordering the cold spicy chicken! Definitely recommend anyone in the area to check it out!

    Everything was DROWNING in Szechuan pepper so beware! It is very authentic in the taste and was nice and spicy. Ordering is super easy as you scan the QR and a menu pops up. You order directly on your phone and just wait for the food to come out. Everything came out super fast and our waitress was very nice. Just a reminder, this is a Szechuan restaurant which means if you order medium, it's Szechuan Medium which is much spicier than you expect. Order accordingly to how spicy you can eat and order less than you expect! You can also ask for spicier!

    Chicken and Beef Tripe
    Henry Z.

    One of the most authentic sichuan restaurants within socal in my opinion. Was referred to this place from a friend - gotta go for the cold tripe, it's citrusy and mouth-numbing. Also the Dan Dan noodles are a hit as well.

    So delicious and authentic! Definitely coming back again for this hidden gem restaurant. You really can't go wrong with anything on their menu!

    Garlic shrimp, fried rice, popcorn chicken, spicy fish

    Delicious indeed. Wow what a great place! The food was perfect. Not greasy, properly seasoned and spice was well controlled. Definitely coming back here.

    My friends and I came to Swan impression on a Sunday night around 7:30 PM. They were still pretty…read morebusy during this time and I was not surprised by it. We've been at their location in Tustin and I heard this one was better than that location I was really excited about it. Teson is really good too, so I had a pretty good expectation on this location. Upon arrival, we were immediately seated by the staff member and she was pretty efficient and on top of things. I have attached here, but the ambience is pretty lively, but also not too loud. It was an enjoyable experience where you can talk with each other and be able to hear one another. At the same time, they had a clean and classy decor to their interior design. We ordered the stirfry lamb with cumin, shredded potato, and the chili oil fish fillet. The Lamb - 5/5 was perfectly cooked and seasoned with a very nice heat to it. Be careful because this is not for those sensitive to spicy food, but if you do like spicy, this has such a nice kick to it. The shredded potato - 5/5 one of my favorite dishes to substitute for the rice. Don't be deceived by how it looks. It definitely has a kick and can numb your mouth; however, you can still taste the pickled flavor in each bite. The chilli oil fish - 5/5 one of my most favorite dishes from both locations. Although the spiciest of the dishes, you taste the flavor through each bite. The dish is perfectly cooked and just dissolves in your mouth. Overall I am extremely satisfied with our visit and recommend coming here if you're ever in the area!!

The squid tentacles were tiny, and the dish felt like it was mostly filled with mixed vegetables. For $25.99, it definitely felt a little like a rip-off. On the brighter side, the Tea Smoked Pork Rib was really good--super flavorful and probably my favorite dish of the meal. That said, most of the menu is on the pricier side, and the portions aren't very generous, so value-wise it's a bit questionable. Service was just okay. No one really checked in on us, and we had to wave our hands a few times to get attention when we needed something. Overall, solid flavors in some dishes, but the portion size and pricing hold it back from being a full 5 stars.

    A Rare Gem of Authentic Sichuan Cuisine Yesterday, I…read morediscovered 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.

This place is not for the faint of heart, if you're afraid of spicy food. However, if you're adventurous and like a little kick to your dishes , this is the place to be. I did ask for my kung pao chicken to be less spicy, but I ordered the Dan Dan noodles to be regular spicy, and it was quite delicious. The noodles had the requisite springiness in its bite. The Jamaican lady sitting at the next tables shared a spicy Tin Foil pork rib with me, it was also delicious. She also recommended the Happy Chicken dish. Finding out the best dishes is easy, if you manage to talk to the regular customers. Generally, it's really hard to find people like me who occasionally like to adventure out for spicy food, but this place hits the spot when you have a dried chili craving. It's a good restaurant to bring your good friends, there are several large round tables available, several rectangular tables with booth seats or chairs, and the portions are very good for sharing. There is parking lot located at the back of the restaurant, and also some limited street parking. In the dining area, there's a mounted television showing you the chefs who are cooking Szechuan dishes, twirling around the red dried chilis in the wok pan, dishing out the food, and you see people enjoying and eating the food, great entertainment if you're eating by yourself. Do check out this restaurant when a craving for delicious spicy food comes upon you, this place won't disappoint you!
