Delicious lo mein and hot mustard
Wasn't open time posted is closed 2-5pm. I was looking forward to trying this place
What a great gem! The staff are super sweet and the food was delish! I love to support family-run businesses.
The food is incredible! It’s definitely made with love and care. The service was also amazing, the woman there was so friendly and kind. The inside of the restaurant was clean and cozy too. My boyfriend and I will definitely be back to support this small business!
We’ve been staying in Tempe for years during Spring Training and have been eying to try Little Szechuan for some time now. Well, tonight was the night and they did not disappoint in the least. We had some amazing pork chow mein and steamed rice with some sweet and sour pork which was terrific, but the star of the show was the house specialty chicken. Juicy chicken fried crispy with sliced garlic and green onion in a light garlic sauce. It was AMAZING. I’ll be thinking about this until we visit again next year. Can’t wait to go back. 10/10!
Have been going here over 25 years love swanie and ted and there food is amazing
Nice lady runs family restaurant for 50yrs in same location. Good food, good value

Very adorable! Cozy! Got the Egg flower soup and it was delicious with the hot oil. Very affordable and wonderful service! Will definitely be there again to support their dream! Had a white wine and they do have cocktails. Totally recommend!

My Asian family and I saw the positive reviews for Little Szechuan Restaurant and tried it for take out dinner. We ordered wor wonton soup, chicken broccoli dinner plate with fried rice, egg rolls, Dan Dan Noodles, Tofu Eggplant. About $50 worth of food. Wait time was long, nice woman said because food is made fresh. Ok.
Large Wonton soup was bland and flavorless, small size, NOT quart size as ordered but pint size. Chicken Broccoli plate was was so bland and weird. Chicken broccoli was cubed with congealed sauce, a scoop of it in a corner. Fried rice was just plain rice, dyed brown with soy sauce, no egg or vegetables mixed in, just plain rice bland. Plain Lo mein noodles were on the plate too, not sure why, but bland fat udon noodles. Weird.
Dan Dan noodles were spicy, but again with the cubed chicken and frozen peas and carrots mixed in. Definitely not authentic.
Large Tofu eggplant was only a PINT size bland, swimming in a congealed sauce with more frozen peas and carrots. Everyone was just perplexed, confused, disappointed and frustrated by the positive comments and reviews. We just wanted some good simple Chinese food after a long drive to our hotel. Very bland food and very disappointed family.

This gem is a literal mom-and-pop shop in Tempe. If you've been coming here for any amount of time then you are on a first name basis with the owners who are the sweetest and kindest people. They have a large selection of gluten-free options which is so rare for a small Chinese food place. Everything I've had here has been great.

I was expecting to have a relaxing dinner after a long day walking around Papago park nearby. But was surprised to hear that it’s only take out that day/time. The person present was nice. The food I ordered was fine, but not as I expected. The portions were ok as well.

I've been going here for 15 years and a Little Szechuan feels like family. Food is absolutely delicious, especially the Chow Mein noodles and dumplings.

It was just a couple lady’s and a cook as far as I could tell but the food came out quick and was delicious. Definitely recommend and they’ve been a business in the valley for so many years now
