Szechuan Restaurants near San Mateo, CA

“Been wanting to try this Sichuan restaurant off of El Camino Real in San Mateo. Tried the beef noodle soup and some stir-fried dishes, and the flavors were authentic and tasty. Only complaint is there was too much noodles in the beef noodle soup. Good place for a quiet lunch. Fast and efficient service. Might be difficult to find parking on the busy El Camino Real, so look for spots on the nearby side roads.“

“This is definitely one of the best places to enjoy a meal in downtown San Mateo! I absolutely love the concept of being able to customize your own meal—the idea is brilliant!

I also really appreciate that they offer different spice levels. I chose the mild level, and it was absolutely perfect for my taste. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and delicious!

And the atmosphere is just as impressive as the food. The restaurant has such a luxurious and beautiful interior, with amazing attention to detail. ✨

Definitely a must-try if you’re in downtown San Mateo! 💚“

“Charming Chinese restaurant in Millbrae that focuses on the Sichuan cuisine. The Mapo tofu was delicious, and the cold spicy noodles were superb. Beef noodle soup was surprisingly good as well. Fast and efficient service. Interior is small, so not ideal for large parties. Parking can be challenging, as the free parking lot fills up fast and is shared with several other local businesses.“

“We were disappointed with our previous favorite Sichuan restaurant on our second visit there. We found this Michelin recommended restaurant as a replacement. We were very impressed. The quality was on par with the best restaurants in Asia, which is a rarity in the US. The beautifully photographed menu made item selection easy. The veggies even turned out better than the picture in the menu. They truly deserve all those awards on their wall. We will make it our regular chinese restaurant from now on.
My wife's干煸肥肠was the best she had ever had.“

“Food was good overall, opened pretty early and was serving breakfast menus which was pretty nice. For the breakfast menus sometime you might not seem on the table which it happened just make sure you check out the entrance window for an good breakfast deal“
