    General Tso's Chicken Dinner Combo, really well presented. Just the right portion.
    Andrew C.

    I just moved to the area and of course the first thing you should do after finding a good pizza place (Squisito's!) is find a good Chinese place. Szechuan No.1 is pretty darn good as Chinese delivery goes. They arrived exactly when they said they would, the food was piping hot, and REALLY well presented for delivery Chinese. I mean just look at the photos. The price is right (19.02 for General Tso's Chicken and Sesame Chicken Dinner Combos), the food is tasty (though I thought the egg rolls could've gone in the fryer just a litttttle longer), and what else could you really ask for? If I had to nitpick tho, I'd say it's frustrating that they don't seem to have any website, so I had to call instead of order online, the menu on Yelp is several years old so I don't know if it's accurate, and they didn't provide a menu in their delivery bag, so I can't keep it on the fridge for the future. Next time I order I'll go pick it up so I can get a fresh menu.

    Chicken with Spicy Salt and Pepper
    Ann R.

    I know Chinese places aren't typically the place to go for quality food, but honestly this place is pretty darn good. This is the place my boyfriend and I go when we want something quick, cheap, and good. He always gets general tso's chicken and I always get the crispy chicken with spicy salt and pepper. There is something so satisfying about crispy food and salt that I just crave it sometimes. I literally got it twice in one week I couldn't resist. The best thing about rhis place is the price! So cheap and so much food!

    Despite living in this area for years, I Just tried it for the first time & it defenitely didn't disappoint! I recommend the General Tso's chicken, Beef Chow Fun & Egg Drop Soup!

    Supposed to be general tso chicken- but it's not chicken
    Larry S.

    Worst Chinese food EVER! The rice was dry, hard and had no flavor. The chicken lo Mein tasted like noodles with no flavor. The general Tso was huge pieces, with a bunch of random filler and no chicken. I seriously couldn't tell what was in it. See my picture. I figured at least the fortune cookies would be good but nope...those were stale. Drive somewhere else...anywhere.

    I was on the hunt for salt and pepper shrimp (without head and shell) that doesn't cost a fortune. This is the place!! I got that and an order of the shrimp spring rolls. The salt and pepper shrimp was so good! You can tell they freshly prepared it with a good kick to it. I asked it to be spicy, so there was a good amount of pepper & jalapeño, which was perfect. The shrimp spring rolls were okay, nothing to write home about. Also, the lady who works there is so sweet. I didn't catch her name but she made sure that my order was correct and showed me before she put it in the bag. That was very appreciative! Will definitely be back to try out more things!

    Chubby egg roll.

    This is my new choice for Chinese food since I moved to the neighborhood. It's the typical takeout Chinese place: pictures of the food on the walls, two tables if you're crazy enough to dine in, drink cooler in front of the counter. Their egg rolls are short and chubby compared to most. The one extraordinary thing is they have whole roasted duck on the menu. I'm going to have to try it sometime. I had the pork fried rice. It seemed to take longer than I expected but I didn't check my watch. Save time and call ahead if you live in the area.

    Triple delight lunch special with hot sour soup for $8.40

    When I want chicken wings with Mambo sauce this is where I go. The wings here are huge and cheap. The lunch specials at Szechuan 1 are very affordable too.

One bite was enough for me to know the dish was prepared to near perfection. The high heat (not spice) of the dish remained within the noodles. The touch of oil was apparent and not overwhelming. This dish was amazing. The roasted duck noodle soup was also great. The duck was juicy and tender. The soup balanced out the duck's greasiness. A fine dish as well. The GuiFei chicken was okay to good. The chicken was slightly dry, but it was still tasty. This dish was definitely a miss on my judgment but it was good enough.

Generally speaking, I thought the food was fine. Was the food amazing? No. BUT, it was not horrible - I would say that my meal was slightly above average. Also, I thought the prices and portion sizes were pretty fair. I think the noodle soup was about $14 and the wontons were about $7. My order arrived to my home around 45ish minutes. However, I think the delivery aspect is more of a Grubhub thing rather than the restaurant. While the restaurant provided separate containers for the noodles and the broth, I wish they provided a larger container to mix the soup and noodles like many of the ramen and pho places provided for its delivery/take-out orders. Although I was not blown away by the food, it was good enough for me to reorder in the future.

We have been familiar with the area for years, as my father-in-law lived 3 minutes away, and recently we realized this was his go-to carryout. After 3 visits, I can say it's one of the best in the DMV, thanks to its flavor and food choices. You will find Japanese options like sushi, American-Chinese dishes like orange chicken, similar dishes, and Cantonese food like roast duck, Hong Kong-style noodle soups, and whole fish. They are family-owned and operated. Every time we come, the elder father is always gracious and provides excellent service. The restaurant is always quiet; you can hear conversations in the back, and as customers arrive to pick up their orders, we haven't witnessed any negative interactions. Customers are always happy with their food, and the staff say thank you. The only negative is the space. The building itself is older and outdated. In the summer, it is hot, and now in the winter, there is no heat. They have found ways to make it work, like space heaters on each table, but it can still get uncomfortable if you are dining in. The back area near the bathroom and the bathroom itself need a thorough cleaning. To me, it's a turnoff; it doesn't affect the food, but it does affect the dine-in experience. Again, overall, I love their food and believe it's a local gem worth a try.

This is only a take out place where you must call to put in your order by cell phone or you can go there and order the food you want . This place has a huge parking area that soon needs to be repaved soon enough . This place as you walk inside they have a somewhat a lobby type area . Facing that arwa is a customer service barista behind it is their fantastic Staff and their concealed kitchen area where they perform their magic to make your best foods you could ever want and cant find anywhere else . Their lobby area where yoy irder food the way its decorated think of it as being on Holy Ground . Me and my family love ordering orange chicken , Sweet and sour shrimp and Shrimp Fried Rice ,Regular rice and Vegetable Spring Rolls . The food is delightful and delicious more than anything I could ever have . This place should be treated with respect. Here at Wing Wah you get to lean a new Culture, Language and heritage you never knew or explored before . Here you grt to become something much bigger than yourself there. All who come here you'll get an experience you'll all never forget i promise you . Plus the food you get there will blow your mind . Of what happened during the Covid Pandemic it was all of us Americans were at fault for the inexcusable unjustifiable Reprehensible unlawful, And Wrongful behaviors . But we have a chance to provevwe are the better men to redeem ourself from those past mistakes . It shouldn't ever be tolerated under any circumstance of the Law. The Chinese people are honorable people and hard working like all of us to give us food and more we enjoy im thus century. We are all ine family in America like it or not .

So I got up to get some cream puffs and as I about to sit down, the mouse came back and I told Andrew and he got the broom and dust pan and caught the mouse and killed it and proceeded to have us pay. This is what really ticked me off. I went to the front before we left and asked to speak to a manager. The girl looked and then looked over at her friend (who probably wasn't the manager) and said here she is. I told her what happened and she said "yeah sorry, we have someone coming next week and he didn't kill the mouse, he let the mouse go right outside". SERIOUSLY? That mouse is coming right back inside! This is a problem that pest control needs to come out IMMEDIATELY! I just watched a mouse get killed/caught while trying to eat! I stopped and lost my complete appetite. I will be informing the PG county health department immediately and I will never come back here if this is how they operate. The "manager" clearly was more focused on closing and getting out at 10:30pm (they close at 11pm).
