Kalvin's Szechuan Restaurant, also known as Manglinju, offers an array of authentic Taiwanese dishes. While some customers have noted changes in the taste of the Wugengchangwang, the Boiled Lamb is described as spicy. The Golden Sands Shrimp and the three cups of small rolls are reported as delicious. The restaurant is praised for its cleanliness, flavorful dishes, and friendly service. However, it can be crowded, so reservations are recommended. Notable dishes include garlic chili pork stir-fry, soup dumplings, and hot and sour soup.
The restaurant is known as a true and established Vancouver institution for authentic Taiwanese cuisine. Owner Kalvin has trained many of the chefs who make Taiwanese food in the city. The location may be a bit of a hole in the wall, but the prices are excellent with generous portions. Customers can enjoy dishes that are hard to find elsewhere in the city or even in Canada, such as the stinky tofu casserole, which is excellent with rice. The sweet and sour fish and tofu dish, as well as the stir-fried Taiwanese clams, are also highly recommended.
The service can be inconsistent, with some customers reporting excellent service, especially if they speak Mandarin or Cantonese, while others have experienced less warm service. Overall, Kalvin's Szechuan Restaurant is a place worth visiting for those seeking an authentic Taiwanese dining experience.
