I just ate this place for the first time ever and it was the best Chinese I've ever had and I am literally from China. The orange chicken and the fried rice came in such huge amounts. It was so filling and the orange sauce just melts in your mouth. I love this place and I will be coming back every day. Pro tip if you're trying to find your life purpose open one of their fortune cookies. read more

Tofu was inedible. The whole place looks shabby. We had to go pay for a second meal somewhere else.

Great staff. Huge portions. Amazing prices. We had the Pu Pu platter, orange peel chicken, and general tso's and took a lot for leftovers tomorrow! We will be back. read more

My general impression is that this is a high quality representation of Chinese food. The restaurant is very attractive, clean and welcoming. I am giving only three stars for the one dish I ordered. Chicken curry with vegetables. It was nicely spicy but lacked the rich and smooth gesture of real Thai curry, a little short on the chicken quantity and had mostly just two veggies, green peppers and onions. Other dishes may be great so I still recommend the establishment but Not this particular entree. read more

New owners and the food is horrible! It is not top rated food. The service was great but that's it. It's gone down the hill. It was quiet but that's it. I'm read more

The service was excellent but the sweet and sour chicken was cooked too long, resulting in tough, dried out chicken so we couldn't eat much of it. The fried wontons had a tasty cream cheese filling, but the wontons themselves were really hard, not just crispy. So couldn't eat anything but the filling. The egg roll and sweet and sour sauce was good. The waitstaff was very nice and helpful. read more

I used to really like this place, but I just moved back to the area and tried it again after the re-opened following the fire. The Server said they had new owners. Pros - the General Tso is still pretty good though seems a lot milder/more bland than it used to be. Maybe my tastes have just changed, but I remember it having a good spicy kick back in the day. The Apps were solid but not special (we tried the platter that came with 6 different apps) Cons - the Walnut Shrimp was bad, and the service was pretty painfully slow (though friendly and apologetic), and the new owners didn't have their beer/wine license so only sodas and boba we're available for drinks read more

03/02/2023. Party of 4: 4:40 No wait. Our order was placed by 4:48- and the appetizer arrived at 4:53.. entrees around 5:12.

Szechuan Chinese Restaurant - curry chicken and seasame chicken and general tso chicken and beef lo mein - Chinese Near Me - Abilene, Texas

Too bad of a experience to even begin to describe. When I was up front paying the ticket for food we never recieved, an hour after ordering. (Yes, they made us pay for the drinks and the rice (brought out a single bowl of rice and no other food for over an hour). The manager made no apologies. Others waiting in lobby saw the interaction with us and also walked out. They told us outside they saw how the manager handled our situation and that was all they needed to see. I know this place has been fantastic , for many years, but I also heard its under new ownership/management? Its very apparent. You lost several customers for good today. The waitress wasn't too friendly either, but she was clearly frustrated with the kitchen and the manager as well. It was chaos. read more

Food was really good atmosphere was pretty good as well. Service was great. I look forward to going back in the near future.

Food was terrible egg drop soup was too thick overall worst experience ever in dining out won't go back

The service was nice. I only ordered to hood. The food was a no for me. The rangoons were the worst part, they had thick and chewy shells and no flavor aside from the cream cheese. Disappointed for sure. Everything. Else was a no as well, tasted like burned stale cooking oil. Biggest disappointment. Fired Rangoon more like fried sapodillas: next time I will ask for cinnamon sugar and honey butter it's a no for me. read more

Really liked this restaurant, but it was closed and no mention of reopening. When they reopen and I eat there, I'll revise my review. It WAS a fantastic Chinese restaurant. French dip is good. read more

The outside of this restaurant is misleading! Once inside it's clean and beautiful set up. A koi pond greets you as you enter. Everything we ordered was great! The orange chicken was the best I've ever had! The Lo mein was flavorful and not greasy like some I've had. The pepper steak was tender and well seasoned! Portions are large you should share! This restaurant has so many wonderful accolades and awards and I see why! Our server was wonderful and attentive although I did not get her name! read more

We had not eaten at this restaurant for a few years and were in the mood for Chinese. If you believe all the framed magazine covers, this place has the best Chinese food outside of Beijing. But, we found that, while good, it was not over the top outstanding. Our waitress was very good but we were struck by how bland "medium hot" was according to their scale. The place was rather empty for a Saturday at 1 which may be indicative that it was not just us that found the food to be decent but not outstanding. read more

Ordered take out last night. Horrible experience. Hunan Chicken had no flavor, no spice at all. Fried rice was dry and tasted old. Egg rolls were good. Fried Wontons were a joke. Overcooked, greasy and after not finding any meat in the first one, I tore all open. The others had a tidbit of meat that measured less than 1/8th inch wide and less than 1/2 long. We were really looking forward to the reopening, this was always our go to for Oriental food, we won't be back. read more

So we wanted Chinese food night and not knowing the town, took some suggestions from friends.... SO glad we took this one. This place is very pleasant to walk into. Outside, there were some fountains with huge koi fish. Very relaxing. Wish they had some patio/outside seating. We ordered some Eggrolls, general tso chicken, Kung pao chicken and fried rice. Everything came out nice and hot and the draft beer was very cold. So glad we found this place. read more

I had a late lunch here. From the outside, I was concerned it was a little fast foodish. I was wrong. The inside was very nicely decorated and very pleasant. Service was good and food was good Americanized Chinese food. Above expectations for West Texas! read more

God awful! I don't think I've ever not finished a meal and didn't take the leftovers home with me until I ate here. I had the general Tsos chicken and it was just terrible. I don't recall what my wife ordered but she hated her meal as well. Even the rice sucked. The inside of this place is so beat up and run down now. I guess years ago this was the place to be, but they let the food and the space go to shit. Oh, and to top it off, it's not cheap! You'd be better off at Panda Express honestly. read more

Great food wonderful atmosphere excellent service. Not to mention the size of the portions. When the wife and I dine there, we always bring home enough food for at least two servings. read more

The best is the best for a reason: no equal. Szechuan has held this distinction over ten years! I'm proud to patronize an establishment with an ambiance to match its cuisine. #ChooseWisely read more

This place has totally gone down the toilet!!!! I've eaten here since they started in an old KFC building down the street and they are worse than KFC these days. Hot and sour soup came out and I don't know what that was but not that. Horrible!!! Are there any real cooks in the kitchen???? General Tao's comes out. Not even breaded. What is this. Again, horrible. Not even edible. Thank god the waitress took my order off our tab Or I would have thrown a fit. So sorry to see this place so degraded. Avoid at all costs. read more

It was ok. Nothing special, really. And the service wasn't very good at all (we went way after lunch rush hours so they were not busy at all. Not sure why service was so bad??) We might go back one more time and give it another try .... Nice looking restaurant and Koi Pond. read more

The BEST Chinese food in Abilene...well, really, in Texas! I had a Birthday party there several years ago, and everything from the Food, Service, and Ambiance made my day wonderful; even the manager checked on us, which was above and beyond! I'd love to have my 2024 Birthday there, as I'll be 45, and the past few years have been difficult; we've lost family and friends. read more

Always a must stop when traveling through Abilene. Authentic cuisine, great service and affordable pricing

We absolutely LOVE Szechuan Chinese in Abilene. Food is always tasty and there is plenty of it. I especially enjoy the POO POO Platter!

This restaurant isn't buffet style. Some meals have the option of spice heat//none -to- hot. Customer service has always been good here - 4 stars Food - is large portions for both lunch and dinner. The Hot and Sour soup is delicious and the sweet and sour sauce isn't diluted like many other Chinese 'Buffet Style' Restaurants that I've eaten at. - 5 stars Price - very good price for the portions - 5 stars read more

I've always loved the place but honestly I miss the service I used to receive and see around me. This place is a classic place in Abilene if you ask me. But it seems like a lot of places have kinda fallen down a bit. The economy I'm sure has had a bit to do with it. Overall go check it out. I've been there probably 500 times in my life. read more

I ordered delivery through Favor. The delivery was great--no concerns there. I would rate Favor 5 star for their part of this transaction. The runner called me directly from the restaurant to tell me one of the items wasn't available, and did I want to substitute something else? I dropped the item and in about 20 minutes I had my order. They even helped me rectify my billing when the unavailable item wasn't removed from my ticket, and as an additional courtesy extended me a delivery credit (even though there was no problem with the delivery in my opinion). Now about the food. Look, I have eaten many times at Szechuan. It is supposed to be the best in town. But I think they have been resting on their laurels for a while now. I ordered my favorite Chinese comfort food order--Won Ton Soup, Shrimp Fried Rice, House Special Lo Mein. These are staples that should be warm and tasty coming from any Chinese kitchen. Won Ton Soup: Broth is nice, but the won tons were mushy in the worst way. Barely edible. The crispy noodle packet rescued the day as it spilled forth noodle after delightfully crispy noodle. Not too greasy, not too salty. Shrimp Fried Rice: Had those perfectly square cut up carrots and the little super green peas that tells me some part of this dish came pre-prepared. Not fresh. The shrimps were way below par--decent bite size but mushy and fishy. My dogs liked them! But then again, they like everything. House Special Lo Mein: Not a damn thing special about this one. In fact, I could cook my own noodles at home better (and have in the past). Super big chunks of green onion, which I find unappealing (although, to be fair, maybe someone else doesn't). Not much in the way of the meat chunks, and the shrimps here were the same mushy barely edible ones in the fried rice. The bean sprouts were fresh and crisp (the only plus here). But let's talk about how much OIL was used to cook this dish. Well, let's not because it is most unappetizing. For the entire order, the only seasoning I could detect was an overwhelming use of garlic. No chiles. No ginger. No sesame oil. I admit it was a Monday night, which most reputable restaurants aren't even operating on Monday. But they chose to open the doors, and they should have produced the kind of food they brag about in their menu and on the walls of the restaurant. All the awards their chef has gotten, who loves their food as best in the region. Any restaurant can have an off night. But I've experienced a decline in quality each time I order. Next time I get a hankering for Chinese, I probably won't satisfy my craving at Szechuan. read more

Haven't found a great Chinese place in Abilene, but this one is consistent and has the largest selection of food out of any Asian cuisine in town. Can't go wrong with the Lo Mien, but it's worth venturing into many areas on the menu to find a better meal than something so simple. read more

Good food and polite service in a very nice atmosphere. The portions were a good size and the dinners come with soup and two potstickers. We enjoyed the Szechuan beef and the black pepper beef, hot and sour and egg drop soup were thick and flavorful. A pleasant experience, and a nice surprise. read more
