Hot & sour soup was great! Good bite to it. I ordered Mongolian beef. It was really good! No leftover beef taste. The Crab Rangoons shouldn't be served. Soggy, empty. Service was good. read more

Still love this place. Every time I come here it's nice, quiet, great food. Absolutely zero complaints. Here's a tip, though, if you order the combo fried rice, mine came with two crab Rangoon so keep that as an FYI, in case you want to order an appetizer of crab Rangoon. read more

We recently ordered food to go from this restaurant and I have to admit, it was much better than I thought it would be. We tried three different dishes, three different soups and some appetizers. The portions were generous and we had leftovers for the following day. read more

We love this restaurant. All of their sauces are homemade. They use fresh veggies, not frozen. Any dish made with the breaded and fried chicken can be made with fresh tender chicken instead upon request. They also don't use MSG. Go get some! You're going to love it! read more

Szechuan Express - Mu Shu Chicken and Asparagus chicken. - Szechuan Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

We've been going to Szechuan Express for years and it's always tasty and well made, whether you do dine-in or takeout. The owners/servers are always so friendly and make sure you are happy with your meal (when dining in) and package up your food extra well (when picking up to-go orders). Ambiance-wise, it's pretty classic - with a fish tank, green carpet that matches the green chairs, and really cool art on the walls that works with the vibe of the fish tank. Our go-to dishes are Peanut Butter Chicken and Sweet and Sour Chicken. The chicken is always high quality, not stringy or chewy like some chicken dishes can be, especially in takeout meals. I am a huge fan of sauce in general, so anything I order at any establishment has to have some kind of sauce on it - and Szechuan is great about this. Everything is always very saucy, but not to the point that it makes any of the breaded items soggy. They must use a batter that works perfectly with their sauces, making it both not too gloopy and not too crispy! Their soups are also great, and I do the trick of asking for a mixture of the Egg Drop Soup and Hot and Sour Soup, making it a good mix of eggy and spicy. Aside from the soup mixture, another thing I will note - make sure to ask for fried rice if you want that, otherwise the standard rice if you don't specify will be steamed vs. fried. Lastly, we always get the Peanut Butter Cookies as a little treat at the end of the meal. They taste sort of like the delicious burned edges of a sugar cookie. Yum! As far as Chinese restaurants go in Omaha, Szechuan Express has always been and is still an excellent choice! read more

In a time when it's become harder and harder to find a sit down/dine in Chinese restaurant, we came across the Szechuan Express. This location offers takeout as well, and was doing a brisk business. Conveniently located at Omaha's crossroads of Dodge and S 114th St., the Szechuan Express is a hidden gem. Not very fancy, but clean and great service, and more importantly, outstanding food makes this a place to stop. We enjoyed some of their soups, along with peanut butter chicken, Mongolian beef, and one of the most outstanding versions of moo shu pork we have ever tried. The price is extremely economical and portions are offered in both single and family size. All food is made fresh to order and prices are unbelievably economical. Free parking is available in the adjacent lot. You must check out this restaurant for some authentic Chinese cuisine in Omaha. read more

Called in pickup order. Everything was ready quick and hot. Sesame Beef is amazing from this place. Highly recommend!

My favorite Chinese food in Omaha. The owners are so unbelievably kind and the food is always wonderful! The sesame chicken is top tier

On New Years day, we decided last minute to get food and were grateful this place was open! Small space and seemingly family-owned. We ordered orange chicken and general chicken and got two really good portions of food and rice. The sauces tasted very similar. However, they were both tasty. Our waiter was super kind. This is a good place worth supporting! read more

I wouldn't say this is the best Chinese food I've ever had, but for the speed, friendliness, and proximity to my office, I've become a frequent customer. Where else can you get a full meal - soup, entrée, and crab rangoon - for under $15 and under 45 min!? So far, my favorite dish is the cashew chicken. Tried the peanut butter chicken and it was way too much sauce for my liking. They are always friendly and quick! read more

Could have done better with a can of Chung King from the grocery store. Peking Duck and Shrimp Chow Mein, egg rolls and crab Rangoon. It might have been fresh yesterday, but it was all old, and seemed to be microwaved. no flavor.... will not be back read more

Good food, good service. I ordered take out and didn't have to wait long. People are very friendly

Happen to be in the area and got hungry for chinese food, looked up a few places on yelp and saw this place had good recommendations. . . so we dropped in to try it. . .got the sweet and sour soup, hubby got the wonton. . . my soup had very little veges and was very runny, his had way too many veges and only 1 wonton, never heard of that before, then I ordered sweet and sour shrimp which had old sweet sauce, hubby the lo-mein combination . .. .both came with very old fried rice. . .I had the waiter replace mine with steamed rice . . he hesitated at first and said you didn't say that , well at most chinese places I go to steamed rice is the norm unless you tell them you want fried . . .but he did replace it. .both dishes were very bland had no taste . . there was no seasonings in this food at all . . . did not care for this place and will not go back. . . read more

Had not eaten at Szechuan Express in at least a decade, but needed a quick lunch and they were on my way. Had takeout double cooked pork, which comes with crab rangoon. Not my favorite rendition of this dish, as I prefer a stronger influence from the fermented soy; but it was peppery enough and the ingredients were fresh. Note: if paying by credit card there is an additional 3% charge. read more

Maybe it was an off day ... and I don't like giving semi reviews. There was a high rating and a couple recommendations to go here. It's close to the office so did take out. Ordered shrimp and snow peas, beef and peppers, and yun yun chicken (labeled as HOT) but it wasn't. None of the entrees were impressive. They weren't bad just not 'wow we need to come back and try something else'. Also got the steamed pot stickers. Nothing spectacular here either. The crab Rangoon was temperature hot but once you bit into it was like they were microwaved (chewy). read more

GREAT food, Great selections, Wonderful service, Clean and a nice dine in area. My new favorite place.

The food was excellent! I got the beef and broccoli with fried rice and it was very tasty; great seasoning, perfect textures. I just ordered to go but had a nice chat with the staff while picking up my food, everyone was very friendly. Would definitely recommend to anyone!! read more

Amazing food and wonderful owners. Has been my staple for Chinese for almost a decade now. I always love the Mongolian beef but the star is the order of spicy wings!! Wow read more

Szechuan Express - Beef bell pepper. Single size - Szechuan Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

Extremely fast service, we ordered take out and they were ready in 15 minutes. (At 6:30 on a Friday) The food is very hot and fresh, my fiancé burnt his mouth on the first bite with how hot it was We ordered the Orange Beef, Chicken with Garlic, and the Sesame Chicken. All entrees came with a choice of fried rice or steamed, we got both and they are both really well cooked. Orange beef was so flavorful, I typically don't like orange beef/chicken but this one is very good! The garlic chicken was also very good, all entrees came with plenty of sauce. Not dry at all! The sesame chicken surprised me. I get sesame chicken pretty much every time I order Chinese food, this one wasn't your typical sticky orange sauce. The sauce was a lot more liquidy and brown, but ohhh so good. probably some of my favorite sesame chicken. Definitely try this place! read more

Szechuan Express - two plates of food and a drink - Szechuan Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

Talk about express...I ordered three entrees to go and they were ready in less than 10 minutes! Pad Thai- now I am a pad Thai snob and I can't say this is my favorite. I'd definitely sticK to only ordering from a Thai spot but it was pretty good. The egg wasn't cooked in rather strips of egg laid on top of the noodles and the sauce looked more red than brown like I'm used to and it was on the sweeter side. Kung Pao Chicken- my husbands order he didn't care for it at all but he ate it so fast I didn't get to try..:not sure I beLieve it wasn't good. Cashew chicken - good mix of veggies rice and sauce. I was not blow awayy by any dish but they were all made fresh and still hot when we got home. The crab rations did not hold up on the ride home and were very dry which was quite devastating to me. However if price and speed are what you're looking for this is a great central spot wIth a lot of options. read more

I like this place but the last few times I've gotten food here, it's been ok. So my overall for a place I've eaten at or ordered from about 20 times is 3.7 outta 5. The crab Rangoon is hit and miss. Some days it's filled and other days it's like the put barely a dollop in the middle. The chicken friend rice has always been good and my kids favorite meal. 4 kids with big appetites and 2 big orders usually does the trick. I love the hot and sour soup. It's spicier than most other places and that's what I like. So when I'm craving hot and sour soup I'll call and order it. I've had plenty of plates here but the last one I had was the Szechuan Chicken. I was pretty disappointed. There was barely any chicken and was mostly vegetables. The chicken pieces were small and honestly there wasn't many. I ordered it extra spicy but it tasted the same as the last time, not spicy. I'll eat here again since it's close to my house, but I doubt I'll try that plate again. read more

The best Chinese in Omaha without a doubt. When they say express, they mean it. My food is usually ready within 5 minutes for takeout and it always tastes fresh. The owners are great people who love what they do. Inside, the restaurant is simple, but comfortable. One great aspect is the smell of the wonderful food, as opposed to the sewage smell that so many restaurants seem to have today. I've had the yen yen chicken and the double cooked shrimp and both were hits. Cannot wait to go back. read more

I ordered $47 worth of takeout last night. The takeout included six pieces of crab Rangoon. I don't think I've ever had anything worse from a takeout restaurant! The crab Rangoon was so stale and hard, we threw it out. I also ordered the Combination Pan Fried Noodle with Shrimp, beef, chicken, and vegetables. The shrimp portions in this was pretty good. Not much beef at all in it but the sauce was so bland. I also ordered broccoli beef and beef lo mein. My son ate those and he said they were "just OK." Will not be going back there! read more

The food I ordered was awful. No taste but lots of juice it seemed like slime. I ordered the egg foo Young it was horrible. Also we ordered the seafood express so nasty I had to throw it away after several attempted bites. We spent $30.00 for goo. Never will I buy from this place again. read more

Always looking for a new place for lunch. I found a good one! This is the second time I have ventured to Szechuan Express. The cashew chicken was fantastic! I mixed it with my fried rice and had the perfect amount of sauce to cover it. Mmmm! One star down for clutter in the back and a weird placement of the bus table items I. The middle of the row of tables and booths. Also, the crab rangoons were a little chewy (but tasted great!). Overall.. I'll be back! read more

Inexpensive Chinese food served by super nice people. They have been around forever! Help support this small family restaurant.

I really thought this would be good based off the reviews.... And we wanted Chinese food before Christmas (watching Christmas Story), not the move. The people writing these have 0 taste buds... like none. There's no flavor. I would give it a 0, but they were very nice, so they get a 1. read more

Went for lunch, this place is a rare spot on 114th and Dodge that doesn't fill up at noon. 2 coworkers and I each ordered lunch special which we were told came with 2 crab rangoons. We assumed that meant 2 per person. Guess not! We received 2 total. We were offered no choice of drinks beside water, which is fine, I guess. Maybe they knew that I'm trying to drink less soda/tea at lunch. Generals chicken was not bad, not great. Portion size average, price would be ok if crab rangoons and drink were included in special. I'm going to try the Chinese buffet on the next block soon, but if it's as bad as Yelp reviewers think, I might give this another shot when I'm in mood for Chinese read more

My experience has been average the two times I've eaten here recently. I've had the General Chicken and cashew Chicken. Both met my expectation for this type of place. Neither time was too busy and food was fresh, hot, and fast. Price seemed on the high side for the lunch portion. There was a little confusion with our group as to what came with the meal. Since location is near - I'd go back if I had a craving for Chinese food. read more

Szechuan Express - Szechuan Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

I wish I could give less than one star, when we arrived we waited for 10 minutes until someone came to seat us and take our order. We ordered three single plates, our food was brought out within two minutes of ordering which is the biggest giveaway that the food is not freshly cooked to order. The rice was old hard, cold , stale and extremely dry which was in no way shape or form actually fried rice that you would expect from an authentic Chinese food restaurant. We ordered Mongolian beef which tasted like beef and broccoli minus the broccoli. Cashew chicken was actually just off cut pieces of chicken and mushroom with uncooked cashews thrown in before serving. The sweet and sour pork was inedible, hard and the sauce tasted off and mouldy. We invited the owner over to our table to express our concerns only to be met with attitude and disgust. We asked the owner to have a few bites of his own food which he did and said it's fine and always served that way. He offered no customer service for his low quality food , he didn't even bother offering to remake or replace the fold , he simply said we ordered and we must pay. Aside from the trash sold , the portions are horrible .....if your not a local don't bother eating here as I've seen he ignored us completely In favour of a group of locals that arrived 10 minutes after us. This is not Chinese restaurant standards. Very dissatisfied and disappointed as this restaurant had good reviews and our experience turned out horrible. $$ down the drain. Will not ever return. read more

This place has amazing Chinese food and even better service. I go here as much as I can for lunch at work. The owners are a lovely couple who remember your orders from the last stop and charge outrageously low prices for their food. My fiance and I can both eat here for 18 dollars after leaving a generous tip. If I could give 6 stars I would. The food itself is incredible. I have had their beef fried rice, generals chicken, peanut butter chicken, and Mongolian beef, and I love it all. My fiance gets other things as well and she is always happy with the food too. read more
