Do not come here if you can't take spicy foods! We requested our food be less spicy, but it still came out overly spicy...and we typically can handle spice! We came to this place on a Thursday around lunch time, noon. Plenty of tables were available at the time. Inside ambiance is very dark/dim. You need to scan a QR code for the menu. The menu had pictures, which were helpful. However, our parents are not as tech savvy and they were handed a real menu. However, due to the small lettering and the dim atmosphere, they found it really difficult to read. We eventually places our order via the app. The staff were friendly and served us tea and pickled cabbage - both complementary. The tea is heated by a candle which was a nice touch. Mala fish - Extremely spicy, despite asking for it to be more tame. Portion size is good. FIsh was tender and soft. So spicy, most of us could not discern any actual flavors. Yiban style noodles - These are served cold. Pretty tasty! Portion size was small though. Crispy tofu - This was a featured item on their menu. It was really good. Didn't come with much, but it was indeed crispy on the outside and very soft on the inside. Great flavors. Beef and porchini mushroom bimbap - Our party thought this was the worse dish out of everything we ordered. The waiter mentioned this is a new item. There is a little bit of meat. I don't even taste the mushroom. This comes with so much rice! Double cooked pork - This was the best. The pork belly meat was a little sweet and spicy. It was just really good. We're glad to have tried this place. It's not a place we'd try again, as we're not fans of the burning spice levels that overpower actual flavors. Given the location in the heart of allston/brighton, parking could be challenging...but not impossible if you're patient. The place was very clean...even their bathrooms! read more

My boyfriend and I went to mountain house for his birthday. The food was really good and the restaurant was very nice. The restaurant was quiet and had a nice atmosphere. The servers were very helpful with informing us on what we should try since it was our first time there. The la-zi chicken was our favorite. It was our first time trying food with a numbing spice. If you're not used to numbing spice, definitely get less spicy foods. My boyfriend and I are generally good with spicy foods but the numbing spice was a different experience. read more

Finally went after walking by every single day and WOW it was good. The ambiance inside is like no other restaurant I've been to and I loved it. They have you order on tablets which I appreciated since I needed to see pictures to understand a lot of the dishes (not super familiar with szechuan food). I ordered the swing pork belly as an appetizer which came with an amazing dipping sauce and had such a fun presentation. We then went with the lazi chicken, crispy sizzling tofu, and fried noodles. The only thing that I got "less spicy" was the crispy tofu, but not sure if I needed that. The lazi chicken appears to be one of their spicier dishes (literally comes on a pile of peppers) but the heat only sticks around for a few seconds before your mouth sort of becomes numb. It was super interesting and let me enjoy the flavor of the dish without needing to chug water immediately. Overall I had a great experience and will be coming back! read more

Mountain House - La-Zi Chicken (With Bones), Crispy Tofu, Fried Noodles - Szechuan Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

This place has very nice ambiance and authentic Sichuan flavors. Service is pretty attentive, and you order via iPad. I do wish more of the dishes listed on the menu had expanded descriptions and/or pictures. We got the cold pork appetizer which was a little underwhelming and bland. I really ended up enjoying this sweet and sour pork dish. The cabbage dish was a standout too. Of note, I came with my parents and they did the ordering, so I'm not sure of some of the names of what we got. I think we did get the lazhi chicken which was good, and the prawns were similar but a little dry. We also got the mushroom and beef fried rice. It was okay, but I feel like when most dishes are already spicy, the rice dish should be a complement to the other dishes and not be spiced. The eggplant was good. A lot of the desserts were sold out which was a bummer, but of the two we got I liked the milky osmanthus one better. I would come again and maybe try the crab rice dish next time. read more

Whether in person or getting takeout, the food from here is always delicious, especially if you like numbing, spicy food. I've gone a few times now and always get the Black fish Ma-Ma Hot Fish and the Swing Pork Belly (highly recommend both!). The seating and ambiance is very calming and the service is always friendly. You can order through the QR code at your table or on Fantuan for delivery. We also always try to go at less busy eating times since the wait can be long during dinner time. read more

This is a phenomenal spot for spice lovers that really delivers on the numbing Szechuan spice without sacrificing flavor! Food: All of the food we ordered was great with the standout for me being the Ma-Ma hot fish, the swing pork, and the Teppan shrimp. The fish was super tender and was very numbing. The swing pork was a great appetizer because it was only a tad spicy and amazing flavor. Then the Teppan shrimp was also more garlicky and sweet to balance the other spice heavier dishes. Atmosphere: The wood heavy interior does a great job of taking you out of the busy Allston setting and the vibe really suite the family style cuisine. Service: No complaints here either the staff was very quick with water and tea refills which I was super grateful for. read more

A popular spot in NYC, glad they opened in Boston! Mountain House serves elevated Szechuan cuisine. The interior is Chinese-inspired but dark, sophisticated, and absolutely stunning. Heard waits can be long and no reservations, but we went near closing so got seated right away. Fast and friendly service. Unfortunately, my friend I ate with can't do Szechuan spice, but the spiceless dishes we tried were good! * Loved the complimentary pickled veggies. * Swing pork belly: their signature dish. Fun presentation but kinda overrated. Pork belly should be thick and fatty imo, and the garlic was overpowering. * Sweet & sour pork: delicious sauce, perfectly fried. * Crispy sizzling tofu: very unique way to serve tofu! Great flavors and crunch. read more

If mountain house has a million fans, I am one of them. If mountain house has ten fans, I am one of them. if mountain house have only one fan, then that is me. Mountain house just does not miss. The food is consistently yummy, but you just have to make sure you order what you can eat in terms of the spice level. I think their ordering system makes it super easy to dine in with friends. The interior is also super nice and fitting. It definitely gets super busy so try to avoid the rush hours! But even when it gets super packed, the servers are always very helpful and nice! read more

Flavors were amazing. The fried rice is out of this world. However be warned, it's extremely SPICY!

Wow. THE most authentic sichuan gourmet dishes and I have been to so many. Very spicy and numbing, as it should be. Portions are amazing too. The server was amazing, and the environment is so cozy. PLEASE open a restaurant in Connecticut read more

Impeccable vibe. Literally you would not think you're in slumville Allston when you walk in their doors. Very traditional and soothing Chinese feel, the ambiance took my breath away, which I never really take note on but this place is an exception. My wife tried to come here several times with other folks but the line was always too long. Inspired during a random day during winter break, we came as a family party of 5 for an early lunch right when the doors opened at 11:30AM. Food was delicious. Lots of mala and other authentic Chinese dishes. We got double fried pork, spicy chicken, spicy intestines, and sweet/sour pork. Plus a bowl of rice to buffer the spiciness. All dishes were great, the intestine is pretty gamey and the sweat/sour pork balances well. Chicken was average, and the double fried pork was wonderful tldr; Expected pricing for the quality and quantity, but the vibe is really what makes this place stand out. I suggest this place as a date night in all honesty, if you can find a table. read more

This has become one of my favorite restaurants in Boston! We ordered the mapo tofu, the sour fish soup, and green beans, and they were all delicious (though the sour fish soup was my favorite)! The service was great and for a Saturday lunch, we probably only had to wait 10ish minutes. The wait for the food was on the longer side but once we received everything it was well worth the wait. The interior is also beautiful and I found the prices to be fair considering the portions. read more

Went on a Sunday afternoon and had a great experience overall. The wait was short and our party of four was seated almost immediately. The tables are large and comfortable, which makes it easy to share multiple dishes. You scan a QR code to order on your phone, and the food came out quickly within about 10 to 15 minutes. The food was good, though not amazing. For a Szechuan restaurant, the spice level was surprisingly mild. The flavors were pleasant but not very strong, and a lot of the dishes relied on their sauces. The chicken tasted plain unless it was fully coated in sauce. The sweet and sour pork was one of the better dishes, and I actually enjoyed the eggplant dish even though I usually don't like eggplants. The swing pork belly was good but also needed plenty of sauce. I enjoyed the tomato fish stew. It was interesting but good. It had a strong zesty flavor. Overall, the food was good and the service was fast. If you are looking for bold and spicy flavors, you might be a little disappointed. The self-serve drink at the front was nice though. read more

If you love spicy food, this is the place to go. Got the most popular dishes - mama hot fish (got the flounder and loved it, but extremely numbing and spicy), swing pork belly (it was good but not mind blowing), stir fried cauliflower and Szechuan style fried noodles. Service was really really good, and I liked that they provided tea and refreshing cabbage appetizer on the house. The waiters were also really attentive! Only downside as you might already know, wait time for dinner can go up to an hour and they don't do reservations. read more

Mountain house, from the day it opened, refined the bar for Sichuan cuisine in the Boston area. Price-wise, it's not much more than the previous standout, Mala Restaurant. Entrees have prices from upper $10s for basic like fried rice, mid $20s for most, and $30s for premium items, like whole fish in spicy sauce. The menu has the staples like water cooked fish (水煮魚) alongside more interesting items like pork belly strips hanging on a mini laundry line. Service is in line with with Western restaurant, or the nicer Chinese restaurants in Flushing. read more

Super impressed with every part of our meal last night! We didn't have a reservation but we lucked out with the last two spots at the bar. The ambiance at the restaurant is really nice as well. I liked the option of being able to leisurely explore the menu on their ordering tablet screen, while also having a server. Our server was attentive and double checked our preferences about spice level and numbing level to make sure our food was customized exactly to our liking. The complimentary tea was great. Our server made sure we never ran out of water. We had a bottle of wine which was nice and fairly priced. The food itself was exceptional. We shared the beef/mushroom/lotus rice bowl and the pepper lover chicken. Already craving it again, and can't wait to go back! read more

The food was overall a little too salty for my taste. Among the dishes we got, the diced chicken with lotus root and dried green beans were flavorful but the most salty. The pickled veggie fish soup was good (comparable to what I've had at other restaurants) with a decent amount of fish. The mapo tofu was very numbing which is authentic and tasty if you like that, although I felt it made the other dishes taste even more salty. Service was great, and atmosphere was excellent. read more

I love the interior of this place! It's so comforting and the music is so great! So calming. I had map tofu here for the first time and it was delicious. I also had the chicken with lotus root and the shredded potato. Very delicious. And they serve jasmine tea! Service was quick. It's pricy but I'd come back here read more

Food: 4.75/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 5/5 Stir fried pea sprouts were phenomenal, fresh and cooked perfectly green with amazing flavor. Pork belly swing had fantastic presentation, and garlic paste chili oil was a great dip, but the pork belly and cucumber was your average pork and cucumber, no seasoning or marinade. Sizzling crispy tofu exceeded my expectations: it was served on a hot metal plate that kept it warm, but the outside of the tofu maintained a light crisp while the inside was such a silky texture. Sauce on the tofu was probably the best of all the dishes, very umami, maybe some elements of dish. Diced chicken with lotus roots was too spicy for me, felt like I couldn't taste anything beyond the spice. But the house chicken was very solid, chili oil it was in tasted delicious, a little spice without too much kick, and chicken was super tender. Our server Manuel was exceptionally kind and helpful; he had very meaningful recommendations that clearly showed he knew his dishes. Ambiance was gorgeous and paid beautiful homage to the Sichuan roots. read more

I really like the ambience of this place. The food was very good I liked the flavours only thing was it was a bit salty for my taste. The iPad made things easier at first but it's sometimes hard to get their attention. Overall would come back for the food and ask for no salt read more

Wow! If you love spicy food, this is the place to visit! The interior is beautifully decorated, giving you a village-like vibe. They don't take reservations, which I appreciate. When you arrive, you need to use the iPad to join the waitlist if there's a wait. Ordering is also done through the iPad, which allows you to take your time. However, I wish there were more pictures on the iPad because, as a non-Mandarin speaker, sometimes images convey more than the English descriptions of the dishes. I listened to what others were saying while waiting and ordered the same--I wasn't disappointed! The food was incredibly flavorful, spicy but with distinct tastes. I would return there without hesitation! read more

My family has come here a few times and our prior experience has always been pleasant with authentic food and decent service. However, our experience last night was unexpectedly awful. My wife and I with our two little kids waited around 30min before the receptionist seated us. She asked us about any dietary preference of our kids and mentioned that they will prep kid's meals for them. After our party were seated, my wife and I ordered 4 spicy entrees for ourselves assuming the kids will get their non-spicy kid's meals based on our prior experience here. While our entrees were served one after another over 20min, the kid's meals were not served. We then checked with our waiter and were told that the kid's meals had never been ordered yet. He assured that it would only take 4-5min for the kid's meals to be ready. After waiting another 10min, our kids were fairly hungry and cranky while my wife and I needed to continually comfort them and could not eat our food. At that point, I went to the front desk directly to ask what was going on, but the receptionist told us the kitchen was still prepping the kid's meals. Although this was an oversight from their team, neither the waiter nor the receptionist seemed apologetic or attentive to the service their restaurant takes pride in. Some customers may not care as much about the service and come here for the authentic Szechuan food. Ironically, when the kid's meals were finally served and my wife and I could start eating, we found that our dinner was already ruined: the crispy sizzling tofu was cold and soggy, and the mushroom & beef stone pot rice was not properly mixed, leaving uneven flavors on the ingredients plus a soggy charred layer of scorched rice at the bottom of the pot. Interestingly, our waiter did not attempt to check in with us after our food was served. We had to grab the receptionist when she passed by, asking her to help us get the check and pack the leftover (and she agreed to help). As 10min passed and no one came to help us, we had to head to the front desk to pay. The funny thing is, after the payment was processed, the receptionist asked us if we wanted the leftover food packed, which she agreed to help earlier but completely forgot about. I was mad about the entire experience so I only tiped 10% but I felt sorry for their hard working kitchen staff who strived to get the cuisines to their customers diligently. I'm hoping this is a one-off given their proven record in the past, but I have witnessed many decent restaurants that declined over the years after they started to lower their standard. While I'm still open to coming back here, this horrendous experience may always make me hesitant to consider it my top choice. read more

Came here for dinner on a Saturday and we put our names on the waitlist before getting seated. We ended up waiting ~40 minutes, but it honestly was worth it! The ambiance felt super cool, definitely going for the temple vibe with the decor. The service was okay, slow on water refills but the food came out quickly and orders were taken fast as well. We settled on 4 shared dishes for 3 of us and we left feeling pretty full so it was a good quantity of food. The tofu was my favorite, but everything was super solid. The soup was mumuch spicier than expected so just a heads up - noodles and chicken were both solid as well. Overall, I enjoyed my meal and would be happy to come back to try more in the future. I would just keep in mind to get at least one non-spicy dish just for some variety. Regardless, thanks Mountain House! read more

If you are looking for an authentic Szechuan style dishes and zen/ gorgeous interior restaurant, this one is for you. This place doesn't accept reservations, so you should try this place in non busy hours, or put your names down and walk around the neighborhood. I was surprised of how beautifully this place is. It reminds me of the ancient China. The food is not only spicy but will numb your mouth as you eat, so if you are not familiar with the numbly sensation, I m suggest steering away from the word Szechuan on the menu. You will order everything on your phone, so you will save time to ask for the server every time you want more dishes. Tea is free, but the side pickle will have additional charge if you order the second one read more

This place was so delicious, nothing was short of amazing. The ambiance is also very calming, and the servers certainly add to it with their demeanors. Tea is placed at every table and the servers even help plate certain dishes. You do order through an app but I found that servers were easy to track down if you needed anything or had questions. I will say food took a bit longer than expected but I also appreciated the no-rush style. Highly recommend for families or date night. Definitely try the green beans and mapo tofu, though I found the fried rice to be fairly skippable. read more

Food We absolutely love this restaurant's NYC locations, which is why it was so shocking to have such a disappointing experience at this branch. We came here twice, just in case the first visit was a fluke or we didn't order the right dishes. Unfortunately, both visits were equally disappointing. We ordered Suan Cai Yu (pickled mustard fish), Shui Zhu Yu (spicy boiled fish), Liang Yi Bai Rou (cold sliced pork), fried green beans, red sugar glutinous rice cakes, and more. Surprisingly, the only dish we found acceptable was the red sugar glutinous rice cakes. For a Sichuan restaurant, it's hard to understand how so many classic Sichuan dishes could be executed so poorly. The quality gap compared to the NYC locations is huge and very noticeable. If you want to try this Sichuan restaurant, I strongly recommend going to their NYC locations instead. I would not recommend this branch. Service Our second visit had the worst service experience. Although the restaurant closes at 10:00 PM, the staff started going table by table at 9:30 PM asking customers to pay. Other than taking orders and bringing food, there was essentially no service at all. What shocked us the most was that before we even finished eating, the staff went around and extinguished the candles keeping the tea warm at every table. I genuinely cannot understand how this level of service could happen in a restaurant that positions itself as a relatively upscale Chinese restaurant. This experience was extremely disappointing. read more

Delicious. I've had my fair share of Szechuan food, but the food at Mountain House was visually "misleading". We ordered 5 dishes and everything came out with pale and colorless sauces. I almost asked for hot sauce/chili oil, but as soon as I started eating, I realized that I wasn't prepared because this is true, authentic Szechuan cuisine. Everything was spicy and tingly with Szechuan peppercorn. Even the soup was spicy! I can't wait to come back, and I will be sure to show up more humble than before. read more

3.5 stars for the food but rounding up for how patient and professional the service was during a weekend lunch rush and how many requests we had! As other reviews have mentioned, the interior is beautifully decorated and your eyes will feast just as much as your mouth but with all that said, if you come during the busy times, you will have to wait ... and wait ... and wait. We came around 1 on a Saturday and was quoted a half hour wait, and then waited some more for a table, and then waited a bit longer for the food to come out (which it did more or less all at once). By the time the first course hit the table, I was about ready to start gnawing on my arm. Pros: - Complimentary tea (that comes on its own little burner, so the tea's kept warm throughout your meal - really appreciated that detail) and a tiny dish of cabbage in hot oil as a free appetizer to whet your appetite. - The stir fried string beans in garlic was my favorite dish - super crunchy with a great flavor. - Extensive menu, with dishes like rabbit and frog that I haven't really seen in other restaurants in this area. Cons: - Most of the dishes, like the fish and double fried pork, were extremely oily and salty. Good if you have a high sodium tolerance. Definitely order one or more bowls of rice; the food is best described as "xia fan," meaning you're downing lots of rice with it. - Parking: It sucks. Brighton Ave is impossible to parallel park unless you come during an off-hour. We found 2-hour metered parking spots on Malvern street next to 99 Ranch. Recommend coming at 2 or 3pm, particularly on the weekend. read more

Such a beautiful restaurant, it would be a perfect place to take someone if you wanted to impress them with a fancy interior and phenomenal service. We ordered a large amount of dishes and ultimately couldn't finish all (it was split between two people). The bill came out to around 100 dollars but we had a huge amount of leftover food so your bill might end up less. The viral hanging pork dish was really good, better than I thought it would be. The corn dish seemed interesting and we were skeptical at first but it turned out to be delicious as well. The roast pork and fuqifeipian were decently yummy, but not as mindblowing as the other two dishes. However, all portions were plentiful and I got more meat in this fuqifeipian dish than any other restaurant before. Overall, would come back again, especially if I were bringing my family. This restaurant does a great job at staying true to Chinese food and does not attempt to Westernize any traditional dishes. read more

Mountain House - Szechuan Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

I was super excited to try mountain house after years of wanting to go to the NYC locations. I came here with my family and we ordered the swing pork belly, pig trotters soup (老妈蹄花汤), scallion pork liver and kidney (葱香爆炒肝腰), double cooked pork (回锅肉), crispy sizzling tofu (包浆脆滑豆腐), fried rice with bacon and pickles (泡菜腊肉炒饭) and fried rice with special greens (芽菜鸡蛋炒饭). Swing pork belly: yummy flavors and great textures, but definitely felt like an instagram dish for the price and portion Pig trotters soup: super tender fall off the bone meat, in a rich and milky broth. We loved this so much, we ordered it again 2 days later... Scallion liver and kidney: full of flavor and tender meats Double cooked pork: weird sweet flavor, but the wok flavor was there Crispy sizzling tofu: pretty bland and no interesting texture either Fried rices: good and flavorful! The bacon fried rice initially came out with no meat, but they happily took it back and remade it with extra meat :D read more

We've been back thrice now, and are thrilled about it. Fresh and clean, nuanced flavors across many well executed dishes. Our favorites have been the ma la beef (a soup with very tender, sort of slippery sous vide like beef), tender beef tongue, fatty delicate beef rib / bao, poached chicken, braised pork belly, and osmanthus tangyuan (in a delicate osmanthus / fermented rice broth). But that's a lot of dishes and I really don't think you can go wrong. A couple things to keep in mind: 1) you order fully online so you don't always have a dedicated server, and you may have to wave someone down to check on something (but service is super friendly so it's all good!), and 2) dishes can come out at somewhat different times. So just keep that in mind and you're all set. read more

Newer to the area, this restaurant has been on my list to visit. Went right when they opened on a week day, as they're quite busy most hours and days. First, this place is so beautiful. As soon as I walked in, I felt like I was in another country. Not only is the decor and environment nicely exotic, the ambiance is very chic and sophisticated. Second, the service was good and what you'd expect and hope for at a place like this. Very attentive servers that are friend but also to the point. Lastly, and most importantly, the food ... was ... amazing!!! I was a little apprehensive as I had heard it was overhyped and overpriced. It was expensive, but the items we ordered were really amazing!!! There was two of us, and we split 4 dishes. Perfect amount. We got the Swing Pork Belly, Okra Salad, Golden Baked Corn Kernals with Salted Egg Yolk (FREAKING DELICIOUS!!!), and the Grilled Beef Ribs (comes with a "show" - light on fire). Portions for all 4 dishes were pretty good!!! I would highly recommend all of these dishes as well ... especially the corn and the beef ribs. All in all ... I can't wait to go back and highly recommend this place!!! read more

Parking in Alston is always a hustle... which is my only complaint. The restaurant is cozy with the lighting. Decor, design and furniture makes the place feel elevated and fancy, which makes it suitable for even a birthday dinner. We arrived on a Friday evening for dinner at 7pm. Put our names down to be 7th in line and were seated within 20 mins of waiting. Staff were super friendly, efficient, and attentive. It was our friend's birthday and I guess our server overheard us wishing her a happy birthday, so he came by with a gift set of chopsticks and spoon for her. How thoughtful and sweet! Food was phenomenal. Absolutely loved the ma-ma hot fish! The spice was perfect so that you could enjoy both the spicy broth and how flavorful and rich the broth was. Fish was cooked to perfection as well. The pork belly was super fun to eat, except it's served cold so if you don't like your food cold then don't get that. Pea shoots were cold in a light delicious garlic sauce and cooked to the perfect texture. Mapo tofu was actually spicy, so beware! It's absolutely amazing and tasty tho!!!

Ma-po tofu was the only controversial dish at our table, it definitely isn't fully the traditional flavors so could be hit or miss. I would get there early and expect a wait, it's so popular so we waited about an hour to get seated. read more
