Szechuan Restaurants near Rosemead, CA

“I will leave a very honest review here. The owners are extremely generous and this is the most authentic Chengdu / Szechuan food I’ve ever had. Do not be fooled by other restaurants fancy decor, some other restaurant tastes are bland and not authentic. If you want great portions, AUTHENTIC tasting Szechuan food, come here ASAP. I highly recommend the 辣子鸡 (spicy crispy chicken) sometimes regarded as the best in SGV. You can also ask the owners for off menu items to surprise your taste buds if you’re down for a flavor adventure. HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND.“

“Years ago my mom randomly came to this store after a gig in the area, and she was shocked by how good it was.

We happened to be in the area again, and my mom INSISTED on coming here. We ordered number 1 and some cucumbers. Clean, rich flavors. We got mild, and while there’s a kick it isn’t overwhelming. Numbing spice though!

Cucumbers were fresh, salty and rich on the outside and crisp.

Unassuming interior, delicious meal.“

“Favorite Sichuan restaurant in California! Definitely the most authentic Sichuan food I’ve ever had in the states (yes I’m from Sichuan so take my word for it lol)
We live in the Bay Area, but whenever we’re visiting LA, we go to this place because of the great taste.
We ordered rabbit, beef and beef. The portions were HUGE. Every dish was flavorful, and it’s amazing that they picked seasonal vegetables to complement the flavor of the meat in each dish. And the spiciness is really close to what I had back at home in Sichuan. The chengdu fried rice(this should be the name if I remember it correctly) is also very good, not oily at all.
The restaurant owner is also very nice and she told us the rabbit meat is fresh from the butcher shop everyday, which sets this restaurant apart from others. (Well, this is the only restaurants in the states that I have ever been to that serves rabbit on the menu, so I really appreciate that)
100% recommend this place.“

“The best spicy Chinese Food in OC/LA area hands down! They have been Michelin recommended for a reason. Their food has lots of depth of umami flavors with a good amount of spice with a refined touch. Their none spicy broths are especially good too. My faves are their dry pots, toothpick lambs, Qiao Jiao Beef. We also like their spicy ribs and boiled fish in chilli sauce, and Mao cai. Service is great too!“

“As big fan of cold Szechuan appetizer, I always like to test the cold spicy beef aka husband and wife beef (fu qi fei pian). Their’s is pretty good, much spicier than other, portion is kind of small. My only concern is that they grind the pepper corn and leaving some bitter after taste. The restaurant is new with beautiful interior, adding a nice atmosphere“

“Went for the spicy wonton soup and was happy with the fact that even though it was a medium spice it still had the mouth numbing effect you would find with some hotter soups. And now I know for the next time that I should order extra spicy if I really want to feel the heat of their food. And also ask for the hand pulled noodles if they suggest noodles for you!“

“This Sichuan restaurant in Los Angeles is amazing ， you can even choose your spice level! The chef’s skills are top-notch, and every dish gives me that warm feeling of being back home. I came a bit late today, so the bullfrog was sold out, but luckily they still had pork kidney, which was fantastic. Great service too ， highly recommended!“

“We always like to explore new restaurants. Yelp on this one and try it out. Some dishes were on the salty side, but overall we really enjoyed the flavors. Pretty awesome pot of Jasmine tea for only $4. Other drinks were also available. Free parking on the lot and street parking on the residential streets. They were too busy so we had to flag some of the servers for services.“

“This restaurant has all the qualities of an exquisite Szechuan cuisine. The typically fragrance of the famous dishes will inspire you surrounded by the authentic Chengdu ambiance is a highly recommendation.“

“Y’all better stop playing. Run don’t walk! Lin out here bout to have every other Chinese restaurant you have ever been to just give up. Lol! I’m talkin bout they shutting doors and hanging up they aprons! Lins is the ONLY Chinese restaurant you will need for the rest of your life! Impeccable! Look, I don’t even know what I ordered… beef noodle something… I asked for help and the woman taking my order suggested it. The atmosphere was lovely. They had the fam in there, everybody eating at the end of the night. I came in close to closing around 9:15p. Everybody was friendly and the food came out in no time. Plus the prices are great. If I could give more stars I would! THE BEST!!!!! Xiexie Lin! Got me out here leaving comments in AAVE! Lol! This food is so delicious I had to do it justice in a way only AAVE can. I will be going back!“

“The food was amazing. Everything we had was good. They are a great place to visit late at night because of their late hours. The atmosphere was very upbeat and joyful. Service was very fast and on top of everything. 2 for 1 adult sodas were an unexpected plus also. Will definitely be visiting again next time I'm in town.“

“I’m dinning in with a group of friends and we are making a lot of special requests but the host is very patient and is taking very good care of us. We finish all the food and order more to go. The spicy bowl is amazing! And we finished the spicy bowl and order another one to go!!! Loving this place and would come back again!“

“Very authentic and delicious Sichuan restaurant. The sauerkraut fish is their specialty and definitely worth trying. The portions are quite big, we were able to share the single sauerkraut fish dish between two people. You order on your phone and they bring out the food, and all of the utensils and napkins are in a little drawer at your table. Very clean interior and the staff are always ready to assist when needed. They also have fortune sticks which are fun.“

“The food was absolutely amazing! It was a flavor bomb explosion in your mouth and nothing else mattered. The restaurant is small and comfortable and lunch was affordable. I live in Los Angeles and will never buy Sichuan Cuisine here again. OMG, delicious.“

“Food is delicious! If you like spicy can try it. If not, you can order one for non-spicy. Many different choices!“

“Very good food. Clean and fast service.“

“It is a nice restaurant! I have been here once, in the beginning of July 2022. The meals, that I have ordered, were delicious. I have ordered beef meals. One was BBQ, another was fried. The prices for these meals were fair, and not on the expensive side. They carried several generic beers. In addition, they carried Taiwan's Beer. So, I thought to try it out. Of course, alcohol is on the expensive side. Therefore, to dine-in, I would recommend to try their meals, and drink water. Also, this place opens around 5:30 PM, and closes around 2:00 AM. Still, during my visit, since it was Wednesday evening, the place was empty. I was the only customer in this establishment. Nevertheless, I had a good experience, and I would recommend anyone to visit this restaurant.“

“I googled "best Chinese in LA" and then this popped up as the #1 place. So we drove - and had a very good meal. However, if you expect the classic Chinese dishes, you will be disappointed. This is Shezuan, "a different animal". So no rice, no sweet-and-sour-this-and-that. So be prepared for very spicy Szechuan food. Noodles. No rice. Try the dumplings, they were delicious. We ordered mild (1 out of 5 spice degrees) and we were burning inside (we had two separate orders of dumplings - but spice grade 1. There is no consistency, so be careful). So if spicy is what you are "in" for, you'll love it. The ambiance is sort of authentic ;-) - the sign on how to use the toilet (outside the restaurant in the alley) says more than words. But then, it was $100 all-in for the four of us only. My advice: I could barely understand the service language. Better check the menu before you go. As we were first-timers, I wanted to share three starters and three mains among the four of us and leave it up to the waitress to make us explore - she did not understand. I asked if they served beer. The answer was "noodles or dumplings". :-)“

“This place was fantastic 👏🏻 👌🏻. The food was fresh and delicious, and the fresh hot pot 😋 was a treat. Not to mention, I had an invaluable assistant. I had the chicken, beef, and vegetables, and my date had her delicious pork and vegetables dinner.“

“Amazing food. After living in Beijing for many years hotpot became something for those cold days to get the chill out of the bones. I can say for sure that Xiao Long Kan is as authentic as it gets in the US! Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a taste of Zhong Guo“

“Try The Indo Fried Rice… You will love it😀“

“me gustó la sopa y los apps“

“Food was delicious, and service was great and friendly. Ordered scallion pancake, short ribs and soup dumplings it was plenty of food.“

“Very good food!! The pickled cabbage fish soup was so good and the braised pork hock with special sauce was also amazing, so flavorful from the ginger and a little bit of sichuan peppers! Never had it before but highly recommend it. Definitely check it out if you come by“

“好吃！！！！好吃！！！！还是好吃！！！！大爱这家店，服务也超赞的！！下次一定还会去的哦！嘻嘻！！！！“

“The guy at the front desk was very nice. I ran out of change and looked for it in many stores but couldn't find it. He even gave me change even if I didn't buy anything. His attitude was also very good. I will definitely try it next time!“

“Finally, there’s a good Sichuan restaurant understands that the authentic Sichuan food is not about flaming hot. It’s actually about its numbing feelings and aromatic flavors of different chilies. Well, I give 4 stars because the wait was too long and I almost left. I will pay a visit when you have plenty of time to spend there and if you don’t mind waiting for good food“
