Szechuan Restaurants near Santa Clara, CA

“Pretty solid takeout Chinese spot. I got the Lychee Shrimp Balls and Sesame Chicken with a side of White Rice. Very flavorful and cooked perfectly.The shrimp balls were tender inside and crispy outside. I like that they have water chestnuts for some extra texture. The sesame chicken was quite sweet! Tender meat. Tasted like an elevated orange chicken. I would order it again.My only complaint is the takeout packaging. It was very soggy and not sturdy. It doesn't seem to hold up with the food condensation. The boxes were falling apart at the edges from the heat.“

“Wow! Tried it today for the first time and could kick myself for not going sooner!!! Ordered pork belly with rice and cabbage- outstanding, mixed vegetables- unbelievable!-Strong garlic flavor crisp and flavorful. pork ribs w/mashed garlic- omg! Beef broccoli and crisp shrimp balls. Vegetable egg roll. Service was wonderful- friendly and quick ! Prices were reasonable. You see many Asian families enjoying along with us- so yeah! Sorry no pic because we devoured everything ?“

“We arrived for an early dinner at 5:45 PM with easy seating and parking available. Was seated quickly and ordered via QR code. We ordered the Large Old Pot Sauerkraut Fish ($27), which came quickly and was piping hot. Fish was tender, vegetables and other ingredients cooked well, very flavorful. They have varying levels of spice for different palates, but the single chili pepper soup was just right for us. Pretty reasonable price for two people in the Bay Area.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Would recommend!

Wheelchair accessibility: Someone with a wheelchair should be able to get in. There are no stairs required.“

“AMAZING, DELICIOUS, AUTHENTIC

this restaurant is the definition of a hidden gem. Knew it was a good restaurant when our friends said that they dined here weekly (and they're from cheng du so they know what's up)

Super clean and stylish restaurant space with prompt service, which complimented the incredible food.

We got three dishes, but their fried coated tofu was mouthwateringly delicious. Each bit gave a crisp texture that collapsed into a juicy savory center that oozed into a beautifully umami sauce. The outside was seasoned too for exploding flavor every single bite. Get it for sure (包浆豆腐). I did not exaggerate how good it was.

I honestly think their hot bowls could be better seasoning wise but I'm not complaining with the amount of portions they served up. Honestly kind of hard to find a place with such a friendly price. Very reasonable indeed.

Overall this restaurant is epic. We're going to be regulars from now on.“

“OMG! Saw the line of people waiting to get in, so we thought we would give it a try. The food was amazing! Every dish was so flavorful. If you like spicy dishes, this is the place. Great service and friendly staff. Can't wait to go there again!“

“authentic Sichuan hot pot with many unique items such as goose intestines, beef tripes, and pig brains. Highly recommend the shrimp stuffed bamboo fungus, beef strips, Chinese yam wide noodle, and fish fillets. Great side dish, dessert selections.“

“XLB Kitchen is hands down one of the best spots in the area for soup dumplings (XLB). The dumplings are packed with incredibly flavorful, umami-rich soup that bursts with every bite—it’s hard to find XLBs this good elsewhere! Besides their stellar soup dumplings, their braised tofu is another standout dish, with a rich, savory flavor. If you’re into spicy food, don’t miss the Chongqing chicken—it’s got the perfect level of heat and crunch. The bamboo pork is another must-try, deliciously tender and packed with flavor.

The patio seating is a great bonus, making it a wonderful spot to relax and enjoy a meal. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for authentic and delicious Chinese food!“

“Service is great and food is delicious 🤤“
