Everything here is amazing. Our favs are the spicy dishes and the Dan Dan! Can't go wrong with those. We've always had a lovely experience with all the folks that work at the restaurant.

Food was great, although portions could've been bigger. The service was slow, and it took a long time for them to sit us down and take our order. The ambiance was nice though, themed around a traditional Asian restaurant with cool decorations.

This a very authentic Chinese restaurant with a wide variety of dishes. Very close to Route 9 right outside of Newton Center with a decent sized parking lot. Spicy dishes is a favorite and the lunch specials are pretty big.

Nine out of ten Chinese restaurants I used to like had gone downhill after the Covid pandemic. As a result, I go out a lot less often because I don't want to spend money on food that is not even good. Today, we decided to go Sichuan Gourmet for lunch as it was close to my in law's house. We just got three lunch sets and they definitely exceeded my expectations. They were all cook to order and the flavor was authentic and delicious. Mulan, which was used to be one of my favorites, didn't do that anymore. I'm not going to spend my money on food that is pre-made. Portion is normal but all I care about nowadays is the taste of the food. I didn't take any pictures of the dishes because I was prepared to be disappointed. I chatted with the waitress there and she told me that the chef was over sixties but insisted on not getting retired. She was attentive and spoke fluent English and Mandarin. By the way, the restroom is the cleanest I have seen among Chinese restaurants. So stop by if you get a chance. Good restaurants are hard to find now and we need to give them support as much as we could or we will lose them forever.

Another exceptional meal at Sichuan Gourmet house for my wife's retirement party with our close friends. Started off with garlic Cukes, bamboo shoots in chili oil, scallion pancakes, chicken pot stickers, soup dumplings , and cumin lamb skewers. Every dish was extremely well executed. The lamb skewers and soup dumplings were amazingly tasty. Followed by Cheng du ma po tofu, Cheng du kung pao chicken, Cumin lamb, Yu Hsiang eggplant, dan dan noodles and a few more smaller dishes. Not a bad dish all night. Here's a big hint - They also have very quaffable wines at very reasonable prices. !!!! Definitely, our go-to Sichuan restaurant.
