Haven't had that good of a meal In a while!! Beef chow fun. Yum yum Clean. Great service and prices! We will be back! read more

Met a friend for dinner earlier this week, we ordered multiple appetizers to share and an entree each. The garlic cucumbers were my favorite! The dumplings in chili oil were good as well. The pork egg rolls were pretty standard, tasty, and the sweet and sour sauce complimented them nicely. The sesame chicken I ordered as an entree was good. Generous portion. They brought out a bowl of rice to share, it was more than enough for the two of us. We both had most of our entrees left to take as leftovers. Service was good, atmosphere was pleasant. read more

This restaurant has a lot of positives going for it. The hot and sour soup is a great place to start. The rangoons are also quite good. We got a side of the chili oil which were perfectly spiced. We came twice. We had a ton of food to try. The garlic cucumber starter was delicious. The one chicken dish that is in the starter section was labeled as spicy but was also boiled tasting. I did not like that at all. The spicy green beans were fantastic! It was also a huge portion. It was one of my favorite dishes we had. Other winners included the General Chicken which was made in a way that I hadn't tasted before. I wish it had more broccoli on the side because it was goooood The kung pao chicken was also a huge success. It came SPICY. The portions of all the entrees are huge. All of the other dishes that were ordered and shared were greeted with positive feedback. Highly recommended! The service was friendly. They could use one more person to help out because on our second visit they were in the weeds a bit. The parking on the street was a little rough. read more

This place was good! You know that it's authentic when you hear the staff conversing in Sichuan dialect with a customer and there are lots of other Chinese people in the restaurant. You're also not paying an ambiance tax here - and the menu reflects it. The pork snout was really good and the bok choy was delicious too! This is an absolute gem of a spot for authentic Chinese food and I'll definitely be back. read more

I brought my mom here for lunch on a Friday around 1:00pm. There were two other parties inside, and plenty of seating available. We planned to order off of their lunch menu, and split a bowl of noodles for her birthday. Chinese tradition is to eat noodles on birthdays, so we asked the server what she recommended. She told us they actually offer complimentary birthday noodles! We were so surprised; we'd never heard of anywhere doing that before. We ordered the Twice-Cooked Pork Lunch, Fish with Chili Bean Sauce Lunch, and the Birthday Noodles. With lunch, we were allowed to select an egg roll, egg drop soup, or hot and sour soup. We both opted for the hot and sour soup. Even without the complimentary noodles, this meal was incredibly well-priced at $10.99 per lunch special. High quality dishes with plenty of meat and fresh vegetables. The noodles were simple but larger than expected, well-cooked, and delicious. My mom raved about this place. She hasn't had quality Chinese food at that price in a long time, and is telling all of our family members that we should go back when they're in town. It wasn't very busy, but we hope it was just the weather. Hopefully lots of people are supporting them! We can't wait to go back. read more

This place was sooo good. I ordered to-go and when I got back to my hotel, the food was still piping hot- I walked too... The chili oil wontons were good. My only complaint was that my to-go order took nearly 30 mins for those 2 items and the restaurant only had 2 or 3 tables. I forgot what they said the reason was? It may have been them having to make chili oil and waiting for it to cool down? The Dan Dan noodles were perfect and had the nice nutty taste you'd expect. I came back the next day with some friends and was even more impressed with the items we ordered. Fried fish with dry chili was the best. So good. We also tried the orange beef and kung pao chicken. Bother were also good. Ambiance seemed modern and great to have a conversation w friends. Clean restrooms and booths. Would definitely come back! read more

Authentic Sichuan food right across from University of Cincinnati! Modern, clean, and spacious. Food was delicious and nutritious. We ordered bunch of dishes: Beef and Tripe Medley, Twice-cooked pork, Green Sichuan peppercorn Fish, Beef fried rice, and Noodles with beef Brisket. Beef fried rice was surprisingly good! Kids love it! Service was great and prompt. Definitely recommend! read more

The food is outstanding! The Red Dry Chili Pork was the star of our meal! The Dan Dan noodles are also delicious and the Wonton with Chili Oil is worth the visit, itself! And the staff was very friendly! read more

This unassuming chinese restaurant in UC Clifton area is the most legit Sichuan flavor in town (in a town with a surprisingly high number of Sichuan joints)! We grabbed some free street parking Sunday (free until 2pm) and had a great lunch. Spicy hot dishes, mouth-numbing mala flavor (mapo tofu!) and some mild classics (Mongolian beef) had us scarfing down food fast! They know their chili oil is on point since you can buy some to go for $5 (and it was heavenly on the wontons). Our new go to for dine in and take out! read more

The service was good and I liked the food. However, I had several shrimp that were not cleaned properly (not fully devained). Once I found that, I couldn't really enjoy the rest of my dish. read more

We tried the boiled beef dish again, this time delivered through door dash. It was a completely different dish than they gave us last time. I think the communication issues we faced dining in yielded us receiving a different dish. This version was much closer to Sichuan Chili's and was stiff competition even if the portion was slightly smaller. I would order it again. The house fried rice, ordered separately, was delicious. It had big chunks of beef in it. We also got the spicy fried fish filets. Those are not as good as Sichuan Chili's, but still quite good. We will definitely be putting it in the rotation! read more

Got takeout from here! Originally wanted Kungfood but they were closed. I can't say this is the best chinese food i've had, but the takeout process was very simple. Hot and sour soup was just okay. The chicken was kind of squishy. needed more sauce. Not a bad option in a pinch. Was packaged well for takeout and offered me chopsticks and forks. read more

Intimidating menu, spartan "ambiance", excellent service and food. Looking for something better than the generic Chinese restaurant and less pretentious than the fakery that is PF Chang's, this is the place for you. Parking can be a challenge, but it's easy on Sunday. Next time you're craving Chinese, check out Sichuan Palace. read more

Sichuan Palace is by far the best and most authentic Sichuan Cuisine in Cincinnati! I lived in Sichuan/Chongqing for over 4 years for reference. My family and I have visited Sichuan Palace or ordered takeout no less than 50 times. The quality of ingredients and execution of dishes is unmatched. I highly recommend the Sichuan Style Kung Pao Chicken (Not the Americanized version), the dry hot pot, Dan Dan Noodles, Sichuan Cold Noodles and more. I love this restaurant, the staff and the consistent Sichuan food it provides. read more

Redirected to this place after my other choice was not open, I found it busier than expected, and I was virtually the only non-Mandarin speaker there. (Well, I remember a few phrases from taking the language in college). Anyway, that's usually a good sign. My ma po tofu arrived looking much like at the hole in the wall place where I first had the "real" version of this dish, which is properly flavored with a fermented broad bean paste (doubanjiang) and an astringent Sichuan peppercorn that makes the mouth slightly numb. It was tasty stuff; a bit unsettlingly so, but that's kind of the point. So salty, so oily, extreme in flavor. My iced tea washed it down well enough. There wasn't an enormous vegetarian section and it wasn't cheap for what I got, but it was a proper version of a dish I wasn't sure I'd find in this location. read more

In a quest to find the best Chinese in the city, Sichuan Palace makes their case but I will keep searching. The Kung Pao Chicken was the highlight. If you are like me and my gf and get grossed out by large/uneven looking chicken then here is your sign to get this because the chicken is small and delicious. The sauce is sweet and fairs well with the fried rice. The Peppered Beef was decent. It doesn't pack a ton of flavor, it was more so just to have a variety of meats on the table. I found myself chewing for long periods of time, but I didn't mind. The dumplings were solid but were carried by the Chilli Oil. They sell that stuff by the container. It's hot, it's spicy, and I'm sure they sell a lot of it. The fried rice was okay, pretty bland. Overall Sichuan Palace is good, but it's not great. Scratch that, it's great but it's not $60 Dinner for 2 great. I think this is an excellent spot for a group dinner where you order a few shareable options for the table. But for some reason Cheap Chinese Takeout that only comes in pale containers will always be the way to go. If you are in the area check this place out, but if you are ordering takeout try something else. read more

Delicious food - red chili chicken and eggplant with garlic sauce. Large portions. Carryout held up well.

Very great food, and equally as awesome customer service. Orange chicken was delicious! The young man and woman serving were very friendly and attentive. Who I believe is an owner even came to the table and asked my thoughts on the orange chicken I had, and for any improvements I could think of. I admire a business looking to improve and for feedback. That's why I say 5 stars! read more

I ordered the Chinese eggplant with garlic sauce for takeout. It was amazing! Perfectly balanced spice and overall flavor profile. The eggplant was so good it just melts in your mouth. I would not recommend eating an entire portion by yourself for lunch. Feeling like I have been a little overzealous with my portion selection. read more

This place is amazing!!!!! I was up visiting from Lexington and wanted to check out Sichuan food in the area. I've already been to the place far up north that isn't open for dine in anymore, so I decided to try Sichuan Palace and I was super happy with it. My husband and I shared Tengjiao fish, Mung bean noodle and wood ear mushroom appetizer. The mung bean was wonderfully flavored, very vinegary and spiced just right. The fish - OMG! It had 4 pepper signs on the menu, meaning spicy. It was actually not that spicy but rather it was VERY numbing. My lips were tingly and the flavor of everything was just amazing. I can't wait to come back and bring my mom who also loves sichuan food. We will be making another day trip very soon just to visit Sichuan Palace again. read more

Girls night in! I love the texture of the mung bean noodle- strong szechuan flavor. My personal favorite that I always get are the green beans - I could probably eat them every day. I don't remember much about the lamb dish we got but it definitely has a kick. We got it to go and it came neatly packaged in individual sturdy containers. No leakage Side note: I also recommend the garlic white meat appetizer (sounds weird but so so tasty) and their cold szechuan noodles (which I've tried on different occasions). The clay pot beef had a mix of really tender pieces of meat but some were very tough and dry. Also warning - the Dan Dan is spicy! But so good. Definitely a place to get your authentic Chinese food cravings satisfied! Service is kind and very very fast read more

I visit Cincinnati annually from Southern California (had previously lived here for a few years) and always plan a dinner visit to Sichuan Palace. This year I brought a group of five with me, all new to Sichuan cuisine (spicy), and everyone loved everything! We even had enough leftovers to feed a couple more of our group who couldn't make it earlier that evening, having to drive in late from elsewhere. I am looking forward to bringing a new group out next year! read more

Ended up here by surprise. Literally just driving around Corryville looking for something to eat. Went between a lot of other places but noticed this place looked new and some good old fashioned Chinese American food sounded pretty good. We get inside and are warmly greeted by the people. They didn't have any paper menus so we used our phones. You could definitely tell this place was also catering towards the native Chinese population, probably at the nearby university. They had a good variety of Americanized stuff as well as more Chinese fare. The waiter was super nice and recommended some of the things. He even said I should get the more Chinese version of the kung pao chicken. So I did and it was pretty darn good! Just a little bit of spice and all of the good fixings. He said the main difference was that there's not as much veggies in the Chinese version. I'm OK with that because I was looking for a good variety of protein and I got that with chicken and the nuts. Service was just extremely friendly. And these guys deserve all the love! Thanks again for a good meal. read more

This place is decent and authentic. They have actual Szechuan peppers for example! Good service and good food makes this a decent place for Chinese. In addition. To the more authentic dishes they also have American crowd faves such as General Tso chicken. The wontons in chili oil are bomb, as well as the dry chili chicken! Dan Dan noodles are another hit. Recommended. read more

Got orange chicken. Basic, hard to make poorly. So I thought. Heads up: it is all dark meat - balled up with a ton of soggy breading. Must be the top of a chicken leg with tendens and all. So disappointing. Yard House has an orange chicken on their menu 10x as good. Had veggie rolls as an appetizer and I know I live ten minutes away but they were also so soggy. No crunch. Flavor was fine on them. read more

Very upbeat and pleasant environment. I was dying to try something on the menu since I was in the area. I had the dumplings in chili oil. I loved the heat of the oil and the chew of the dumplings. Unfortunately the meat inside was unseasoned and a bit tough and dry. I would not order this small item again at $9.25, seems a bit overpriced. I do plan to return to try more menu items. read more

I can only review the food I ordered. That being said, I had the general tso chicken as take out. I was not a fan. The chicken was strange. Like big "balls" of weird textured chicken. The flavor was more like a Buffalo Asian zing. Definitely not what you'd expect. I do not recommend it. For what it's worth, the store was very clean looking when I came in to pick up my order. read more

Nope, been there 3 times, 3 meals that weren't worth the effort...I give up, won't go back, lesson learned...food was not good, ambiance was typical, service was not good...my son clearly ordered one dish, they brought him another, then the waitress gave him attitude...no thanks... read more

We were in this area trying to decide where to eat dinner. A quick search here on yelp helped us find this place. Authentic Sichuan food is one of our favorite types of cuisine. The server had a wonderful personality, really enjoyed talking to him about classical music (I also used to play the viola). This place didn't disappoint, the food was very good. The place is clean, attractively decorated with good service. I would recommend it! read more

Came here for lunch, due to Fortune Noodle being randomly closed again. We were pleasantly surprised. The service was extraordinary and the food was super tasty. Had a couple lunch platters which were huge portions, paired with three choices of soups. All was solid quality. Place was new and clean. We're greeted with a smile and departed with a smile and a wave. Will be back. read more

I was so excited in trying some addtional dishes from this place since my last visit. I got the red dry chilli chicken and chinese eggplant w garlic on my last visit, and enjoyed both dishes greatly. During my visit this time, I ordered the szechuan cold noodles, dan dan noodles, and red dry chilli chicken. The cold noodles were lacking any szechuan spice, and tasted more of a brown sauce/peanutty sauce. The dan dan noodles werent much better. The noodles werent cooked long enough, no spice again, and consisted of 1 piece of veggie and maybe 1 tsp of ground meat. Glad I ordered the the red dry chilli chicken as a safety dish. Overall, I was quite disappointed. read more

Every time I'm away from Cincinnati, I'm craving the food here! As a group of 3, our appetizers were Garlic Cucumbers and Chili Wonton dumplings. For main course, we all shared the Cumin Beef, Dan Dan Noodles, and Red Dry Chili Chicken. The red dry chili chicken is seriously addicting and a MUST try. The service staff is very kind and friendly. This is my go-to when I want Chinese food. read more

Amazing Sichuan food!!! Everything we ordered was spicy with the perfect amount of Sichuan chili pepper with its distinct numbing quality. It's unlike any other Chinese food in the area, because it's specifically Sichuan style. You have to try this place. The wontons in chili oil were the best I've had in the city. You get 10 in an order for $8 which is a great deal. They are stuffed with a pork filing and drenched in hot oil. Tried something new, mung bean noodles. They were thick and chewy, also in a hot and spicy oil sauce. Amazing!! A must try. Our entree was the dry chili chicken. It was lightly breaded chicken pieces fried in a wok with hot peppers, garlic, and ginger. Delicious! The service was fast and friendly. It's clean inside and looks new. Give this place some love and try something new! read more
