Szechuan Restaurants in San Diego, CA

“This is an underrated gem, especially when compared to the line waiting outside for the restaurant next door. While this place was full for the entire time we were there, we were seated immediately and there was a constant flow of people. Food was delicious, everyone was flavorful and well made. Our native Mainlander friend approved, so we felt confident in our choice. Don't skip the scallion pancake, eggplant in the clay pot, and chili oil wontons. They try to go high-tech with iPads and QR codes for the menus, but we weren't able to order digitally when we were there and had to call over a human.“

“SO good! We went for lunch on a Sunday and they were pretty busy but we were able to get seated and the food came out quickly. Per suggestion from our waitress, we got the green beans, the Szechuan pork, and the local flavor beef. Super generous portions and great prices. The three dishes we ordered were more than enough for a second meal of leftovers for both of us. Everyone was so friendly too. We‘ll be back!“

“I noticed Spicy House serves Da Pan Ji (Big Plate Chicken) for just over $20, so I decided to try it along with Dongpo Pork, salted egg yolk tofu, and scallion pancakes—dishes my dad loves. Everything was delicious and great value!

The tofu was super flavorful and perfect with rice, the pork was tender and not greasy, and the Da Pan Ji was a huge portion with wide noodles, making it an incredible deal. Only the scallion pancake was average. My dad loved the meal, and with four of us eating, we still had leftovers!“

“The food was good & they have a great selection of lunch combos that come with soup & salad for a reasonable price! There was actually a lot of food, the plates were very large, which made the pic look like less food. It was so much that I couldn't finish the shrimp.“

“Overall: The food was good, very authentic, and it took 20 minutes for the food to come out.Fish with sour soup: The flavor is strong! But it was the perfect mixture of spicy and sour. I would highly recommend it pouring over and eating over the rice.Spicy Noodle Soup: Again, more spicy than sour. However, it was the perfect Mala spicy-nessLocation: Its in a plaza lose to the Qualcomm work place with a lot of the other places to eat. The parking might be limited if it is a busy day.Service: Food came out fast. You know its authentic when you see a lot of Asian people eating there too. The ambiance was nice too, clean and minimally decorated.Price: It's a little pricy for my taste. However, the quality is good.“
