Szechuan Restaurants near Milpitas, CA

“AMAZING snacks! There is a free snack bar with all kinds of delicious chinese snacks, the staff were very kind and gave children toys. You can walk in at any given time and they will find you a table immediately. The place is very clean, and my family and I love it so much we go at least 2 times a week. If you’re ever looking for a hot pot place go here!“

“This is delicious! I really like eating rattan pepper fish. It would be better if the potato shreds were more sour and spicy. The pot-roasted pork is also delicious, but I don’t eat fried food very much. If I eat one piece, it will be almost the same. Overall, the service was great, the food was great, a bit pricey but fresh, will definitely go back.“

“Ambiance - 5/5 Great experience wit unique decor, the dining area gives off the old street vibes for sure. When you walked in, immediately you are greeted with this nice Chinese decoration. Even their mugs are unique and give the old street vibes.

Food - 5/5 we ordered some skewers, malatang and tomato beef brisket noodle soup. I said their malatang is the best and the highlight here. We ordered the mild spicy Cheng Du soup base that comes with less soup and serve on a big platter. The broth is clean yet super flavorful, tasty with a good strong hint of spice. The heat level was just nice for us as we get to enjoy the broth without the numbing/burning hot effect.

Their fried tofu and quail eggs skewers are seasoned just nice and only complained is the portion is small as I was expecting more than 3pieces of tofu per skewers. But then again these are not the normal cold tofu (it's the better grade, chewy version).

We ended with their rice cake. It's so good and addictive. I couldn't stop eating and have to hold myself back to save the last piece for my family. It's crunchy on the outside but super light and airy inside (unlike most other rice cakes which are usually fairly dense) And very soft and chewy.

Service - 5/5 Very good, observant and attentive. They provided us with extra napkins without us having to ask for more.

I will for sure come back again.“

“I got the beef spicy mix and it was really delicious! Spicy and fragrant and very well seasoned. Really nice assortment of ingredients, and everything was well cooked. The unlimited rice was a nice touch too, even tho I didn’t need it. Good price for the amount of food and I had enough leftover for lunch the next day.“

“XLB Kitchen is a real nice, clean, and pleasant place for a small Chinese restaurant. It serves foods of distinctive tastes and diverse styles beyond expectation. The service is prompt and warmhearted, giving you to feel at home and want to visit it regularly in the future and recommend the place to your friends, too.“

Skibidi toilet rizz was playing cuz the owners kid was here. Classic Chinese restaurant. But otherwise, there were some interesting collections on the walls. Giving underground restaurant vibes, but not quite


Meat was juicyyyyy and love the enoki mushrooms. Some of the other skewers like the asparagus and 土豆丝 could use some more seasoning though.

Wow: 0.25/1

“Shang Cafe has been keeping up to their high standard, which speaks for itself. The food is delicious and portion is good. They are moderate in terms of seasoning and salts. But still manage to make the dishes delicious. They keep pushing new creations, which are usually good! Good job all these years!“

“Great Sichuan food and great atmosphere. I got five dishes and I recommend all of them:

- Tender Beef in Spicy Sauce
- Kung Pao Chicken
- Pork Fried Rice
- Dandan Noodles
- Dry Cooked String Beans

If you’re not a fan of spicy, feel free to omit the Tender Beef in Spicy Sauce, but you are truly missing out.

Service was also great! Very attentive and kind :)“

“I recently went to the restaurant. I had pan fried chicken noodles and eggplant dish. The fried noodle dish was mouth watering! Crispy and full of flavors. I really enjoyed the flavors in the eggplant dish as well.

Walking into the restaurant really surprised me by their cleanliness! The whole place was spotless!! Hygienic clean. Not a dust in sight. Even the counter space was organized and clean with sanitizer. This really impressed me.

I really appreciated that the owner took time to prepare the meals. I had to wait some time as there was a large order before me but I noticed that she didn’t rush any orders even the small orders.“
