Well first of all the place is nice & clean! No weird smells or smells of cleaning product. Everyone was very nice & I spoke to the owner for a while. If you're looking for some awesome Chinese food then this is the spot! I ordered take out & it was nice & fresh 25 minutes later. Speaking of fresh, that's what I noticed first about the taste! read more

Szechwan Kitchen - Half Mongolian Beef & Half General Tso's - Chinese Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

The food is amazing. Really great. The service is a disaster. Empty water glasses the whole meal, additional sauces requested several times and were never delivered. Then we were brought the bill twice and the second person insisted we hadn't paid yet. read more

Good food and good size portions, The waiter was new so we, being so much into Chinese food, directed him for bowls etc. he brought everything and in time. I will recommend this place. read more

I was craving Chinese food last night and this place was exactly what I needed. Before I go on to highlight the amazing food, I need to acknowledge the phenomenal service. There was one server/runner working while we were there and he was so attentive and so fast with bringing out our food and any requests we might have had. He made the experience so much more enjoyable. The potstickers and steamed buns come with a delightful sauce that takes the dish to another level. The egg flower soup was creamy and so flavorful. The fried rice was as you would assume, but no complaints. The orange chicken was absolutely delicious!! I'm normally a little weary about dishes like this because I cut the larger pieces in half, and sometime the chicken can be a little sketchy.. but this chicken was so fresh and looked as it should!! That is a 10/10 in my book. Will definitely be back! read more

I give it 3.5 stars really...Everyone at my table enjoyed the food here! We especially loved the spicy chicken dumplings appetizer & would come back just for that. The only reason I did not give 5 stars is I ordered beef chow fun - beware: there is an up charge for the "wide noodles"- which I was ok with. My order was beef with LINGUiNE-esque noodles. Disappointing. Not sure what that's about but with those kinda noodles... it's wasn't FUN read more

Dare I say this place has China Chili beat...? I do dare. This is the best Chinese food in Phoenix. I love the dumplings in spicy sauce as well as the Mongolian chicken. FIREEEEE. I am a huge fan of Asian cuisines and this place is just magnificent. The interior could use some love but the service is friendly and the food is amazing. I also order from them via Uber Eats and my order is always perfect. So what're you waiting for? Throw on some boots and giddy on down to Szechwan Kitchen!!!!!! read more

Food was not good at all. No flavor and no spice. They promptly remade my order after hearing of driver not delivering to correct address which was very nice. Aside from that experience the food just didn't do it for me. Wish better luck to others read more

The wonton soup and the eggrolls were very good, and my husband liked the kung pao chicken (spicy!). I had the sesame beef, which was described on the menu as coming the "Chef's special brown sauce", so I was surprised when it came out with a super sweet honey sauce. I didn't mind the super sweet sauce, but my husband wasn't crazy about it. The beef was a bit overcooked and dried out, so it needed the sauce. Service was great! read more

True Szechwan. So glad I decided to finally try this place. Boiled fish, flavorful and spicy, tongue numbing as the menu says. read more

I am loving a Szechwan style place in the central corridor. The food is delicious. Their ambiance is getting more welcoming and the building, although it could use some updating, is clean! The service is great and they are so friendly. The weekday lunch specials are the lowest price I've seen in awhile. We keep going back! read more

So good and reasonably priced. Good service too. My favorite is the Singapore Rice Noodles.

Food is always fresh and very tasty! I particularly like the Szechwan and the Hunan shrimp dishes.

The food was delicious and the service is on point. The place itself is a little rough but the food makes up for it. Tables and silverware are clean. Waiter was very attentive. read more

Prompt and kind service, a great selection with a delicious traditional taste, and a calm enjoyable environment. Great for take out. We had their orange chicken which has been the best I've found in the phoenix area, it's actual breaded chicken instead of a chicken nugget type bite. We added dry spicy chilies to it which elevated the spice 10/10. read more

$43 for food poisoning undercooked chicken beef like sun dried jerky my brother could not eat his meal because there was visibly raw chicken and my beef was so tough the roof of my mouth is hanging down torn to shreds like I was eating glass save your stomach and wallet's the pain of eating here read more

Wow!! Phoenix finally has legit Chinese food! This place is SO GOOD! We ordered: House Lo Mein - spicy Orange Chicken General Tso Chicken - spicy Hot and Sour Soup Everything arrived piping hot and was actually spicy! The Orange and General Tso chicken both had a crunch and all dishes were flavorful. I didn't want bell peppers in my General Tso chicken and they happily accommodated my request. The only negative about that is they didn't put ANY vegetables in it. I didn't make it a big deal because everything else was amazing. I'll just need to let them know all other veggies are ok when I order next time! read more

So good! Ordered the Kung Pao Chicken and the heat was perfect. So flavorful and just on the edge of my heat zone. Tons of veggies and tender chicken I'm a fan. read more

Sincerely enjoy this place. Everything we have ordered has been fantastic. And specifically the Chongqing Chicken is addictive to the point that within a week I'm legitimately craving it again. read more

Szechwan Kitchen is a wonderful restaurant. Same management that ran the Szechwan Palace in the Chinese Cultural Center years ago, so we were excited to try it. We had the water boiled beef, Pork Fried Rice, the spicy dumplings, and Spicey Green Beans. It was exceptional and they made it with the extra spice we desired. The numbness you get from the peppercorn and the chilis is not overwhelming, but the correct taste with authentic Szechwan cuisine. Just thrilled this opened, and they will be bringing more items onto the menu shortly. Highly recommend this restaurant. The seating was comfortable, parking was ample and easy. Should have photographed the dishes themselves, but I was enjoying it so much, I neglected to do that. I will add them next time. read more

My husband and I were in the mood for something different than our usual Friday night dinner date. We decided to try Szechuan Kitchen as it was located very close to our house. Needless to say, it is our new favorite Chinese Restaurant!!! We tried several different appetizers. The steamed buns (soup dumplings) are our new favorite appetizer. My husband had Beef Lo Mein and I had Mapo Tofu which is one of my favorite Chinese dishes. Spice level was excellent! Both were so satisfying. We left with full bellies and without an empty wallet! They have a separate lunch menu which we will definitely be trying in the very near future. read more

Went there today and there were so many flies on my food one of the guys had to literally stand at my table w/a fly swatter and try to kill them. They were all over my food. Absolutely disgusting. Will NEVER go back. read more

Like most Americanized, casual, or fast food style Chinese places, this place is no exception in that they cannot seem to pack or prepare to-go orders to save their god damn lives. If a particular dish is high in sauce or potential messy factor, please pick or order in the appropriate containers to handle them. I do not understand how people think they can pack dishes drenched or covered in sauce/broth/soup in a typical generic Styrofoam container. One sharp turn, one speed, a bunny's sneeze, can lead to a giant mess. I live 7 minutes from this place by the time I get home, bottom of the plastic bag is SOAKED. Containers are all soaked, there is a mess everywhere. It literally makes one so frustrated and annoyed that it just ruins the meal. The food is decent. For a place claiming to offer Szechwan cuisine, they actually do moderately own up to it. Food is decently spicy and does have remnants of that distinct Szechwan tongue-numbing sensation. Still not as authentic and will definitely NOT completely satisfy one's "tongue-numbing" spice sensation that is associated with Szechwan. read more

Finally, a real Szechuan Restaurant in the Melrose District of Phoenix! My friends and I came here to try it out and we were definitely not disappointed; this is the real deal! While they serve some familiar Chinese restaurant staples, the Sichuan dishes really stand out with their aromatic seasonings and flavors charged with real Sichuan peppercorns, giving them that distinctive pleasant tingling - numbing sensation that one would expect in real Sichuan cuisine. The Szechuan beef was tender, savory with a bit of Sichuan peppercorn kick.The Sichuan dry fried green beans were delicious and pleasantly crunchy - a must try even if you're not a fan of green beans. The moo shu chicken was also very good and came with the requisite crepes. And the Chongqing spicy fish was super flavorful- just be aware that the level of spicy heat and the intensity of Sichuan peppercorn flavor in this dish is really pronounced here. The restaurant is very clean and spacious, the service is excellent, prices are good, and parking is plentiful- a bonus in the Melrose district. read more

Finally real Chinese food in the Phoenix area! We have been looking for good Chinese here in the valley since moving here four years ago. Tonight our search ended! We had Dan Dan Noodles, twice cooked pork, Szechwan Chicken, won tons in spicy sauce, hot and sour soup, and chonqqing chicken. All of these were fantastic and reminded us of the real Chinese food we used to enjoy back in the Chicago area. We will definitely be back! read more

First visit was a very good experience. Got soup and chicken with broccoli and recommend this restaurant.

This is a fairly new place. It used to be Diamonds Chinese I believe. The inside is clean and spacious. We were greeted by the staff right away. Everyone was very friendly and attentive to our needs. The place was kind of empty which hopefully that changes because omg the food is fabulous! I haven't had Chinese food this good in a while. The portions are pretty big so be mindful of that when ordering. We started off with the 8 piece crab puffs and 2 piece spring rolls. They were nice and hot, fresh and again.... Omg I haven't had crab puffs and egg rolls this good in quite a while! The dipping sauce was not too sweet and a perfect consistency for dipping. Although in my opinion the sauce got in the way of the flavor of the crab puffs and spring rolls. Soooo good! All of our food came out very fast. For our entrees we ordered the house egg foo young, Kung Pao chicken, Szechuan beef and pork fried rice. We didn't realize the dishes came with white rice so... bonus we had a huge serving of white rice too. Now here is where I will stop and say the portions are BIG and we were not prepared for the amount of food we ordered but no worries because it didn't go to waste. We took the rest home to finish off. We will definitely be returning again. This place is really a hidden gem and I really hope their business picks up because the food and service is hands down the best I've had in the area. In addition they do seem to have a lot of to go orders so that's a plus! This place deserves the 5 stars... 10/10 will be back and will definitely recommend this restaurant to my friends and family. Great job and it shows when someone takes pride in the quality of food they serve. read more

We ordered takeout, and all of the food was amazing. We got the soup dumplings, which were flavorful and pillowy soft. Then we got the house lo mein and orange chicken. The noodles were soft and chewy, and the meat/veggies were a good ratio. We also got the honey walnut shrimp, which was crispy and sweet, just the sauce was a bit runny, but still tasted great. We will definitely be back! read more

Love the food. Have not had a bad meal there. They are also very good with the service for a large group

Love this place! The decor might be plain, but the food is outstanding. The portions are generous, the staff friendly, the prices reasonable. Give it a try - you won't be disappointed! read more

A great step up from the previous Diamonds Chinese that was in this location. We went to get takeout on Christmas Day after seeing a movie, and was pleasantly surprised by the higher quality of the food than from the previous place. Apparently the new owner used to own Szechwan Palace at the Chinese Cultural Center, which I also enjoyed many times, so no surprise that this was a very good meal. We had General Tso's chicken and the Kung Pao combo, both were super tasty and we will be back soon; I may get in for a lunch combo this week! And even though we were driving right by and went in and ordered food to go, they even have a decent website and online ordering; the previous place I believe did not have one at all. read more

Went there tonight for the first time based on good reviews, and it is reasonably close. It was terrific! Got the dumplings and spicy sauce and sweet-and-sour soup, to start. Both were excellent. Determined to try things, we got Szechuan chicken, beef and lo mein. Honestly, I loved all of it. Some of the best Chinese food I've had for a very long time. The menu is very much Szechuan from 1975, but that can be a good thing. We will go back. In fact, given the scarcity of good Chinese food, it is that was our go to Chinese restaurant. Oh yes, the service was very good. The women who attended us were very nice and very helpful. The room is big and airy and very pleasant. At the moment, they don't have a liquor license. But I assume they will be getting one and, given the quality of the food, I don't mind at all. read more

I find this Chinese food very good, I get the chicken with jalapeños really good. They're hot and sour soup is very good. Also, the rice is good. I haven't tried anything else, but looking forward to trying different items on the menu. read more

Great food! Mapo Tofu was one the best I've had in the Phoenix area. Servers were attentive. The dining area was giving old and outdated dinning room even though it's brand new restaurant, but don't let that fool you, the food was great. The prices are very reasonable and it's worth going. Give it a try! read more

Finally found my replacement for Super Dragon! Ordered the dumplings in spicy sauce (delicious, with paper thin skin), pork egg roll (standard), General Tso's (tender, lightly breaded chicken--delicious sauce was perfect consistency, will order extra next time), perfectly steamed broccoli. read more

We did take out. The inside of the restaurant is relatively bare. It reminds me of some no-frills Chinese restaurants I've seen in San Francisco and these are the best places to get good, reasonably priced meals. I'll give it another try. I think they could improve on their vegetarian options. I forgot to ask about brown rice. I like Szechuan Chinese. We used to eat it a lot. read more

Please no one order from this place, I ordered last night via doordash and I swear I got food poisoning. I was sick all night.

First of all, customer service was great! I believe I spoke to the new owner and he was so nice and helpful. When I walked in I noticed a big difference in the overall cleanliness of the building which is always a good sign. I ordered the lunch combo Kung Pao Chicken and OMG it was so flavorful and actually had that spice that I crave and expect when something says spicy on the menu! The spring roll was crispy and not under done on the inside which is important to me in a spring roll. I'm so happy they are in my neighborhood, I'll be coming back to try more dishes. read more
