I enjoyed my dim sum here. The food is good and the price is reasonable. I love their shu mai. No validation and parking rate is 2 dollars per hour.

As of this writing, the restaurant remains open but is an extension to neighboring restaurant, Legend Seafood. Simply Sichuan’s sign is still hanging outside of the restaurant but the menu and offerings are no longer available.

Have gone there over a dozen times. Usually between 4pm to 6pm. Place is always closed.

It's not possible to review this restaurant as it no longer exists. The sign is above the door but the menu and food you receive is dim sum from Legends Seafood next door and that's where your food will come from carried in from outdoors by servers running frantically back and forth between the two restaurants. If you want dim sum, it was pretty good, but go read the Legends review, because there is no Szechuan restaurant here.

Having read some of the latest reviews, I'm still befuddled on the whereabouts of Simply Sichuan restaurant. It looked like a duck, walked like a duck... but I believe it's just an annexed location of its mothership, Legends, which is located next door. I felt like I was at the kids table at a family gathering. All of our food was brought into this solid floor, storage warehouse setting room on a utility cart which was noisy and annoying with its loud rattling wheels. Our two servers were very busy doing food runs back and forth to Legends, so the basics of water glasses filled was almost nil. At $75 to $100 for lunch, I'd think service would have been more plentiful. The food, very good standard Cantonese, it's difficult to read the menu unless you know dish "style" names or read Chinese characters. Yes, the standard kung pao dishes are present, but I wanted something new and exiting from SS, as the name implies. So salt pepper pork chops were awesome along with Singapore style noodles and dim sum that were all served in a whacky sequence. I won't even go into the table next to us was served our dish we ordered 15 mins earlier... the food comes out less than steaming hot since it sits over in the other restaurant with Saran Wrap until it's unveiled here at the kids table. Do yourself a favor and go to the nicely decorated Legends and have the same food in a well staffed and carpeted environment.

No response on Doordash or phone despite being marked as open on google. Either hours need to be updated, or just poor service.

I personally enjoyed their Black Egg & Pork Congee. Tasty, favorable & the thickness that I like.I also ate the Shrimp Siumai & Pork Hash. Both very delicious.My waitress was very pleasant & helpful. I did not feel rushed at all. Yes, I would go back. And you should too.

The food all comes from Legends so the servers are constantly walking back and forth between the two restaurants. The quality of the food was so-so and expensive. Nothing interesting about the dishes and I don't plan to return.

This is no longer a Szechuan restaurant. My husband and I were so excited to try it after seeing some great pictures and reviews. However when we arrived They sell dim sum from legends next door. They gave legends menus and literally walk next door get it and walk it over. The dim sum is good. But not what I wanted or went to the restaurant for. The signage is still all up for simply Szechuan, and at no point we're we told it was no longer a Szechuan restaurant before we were seated.

The sign is a bit hard to see. Food is great and so inexpensive! Highly recommend.

Had the jia jiang mian. It was excellent. A little spicy which was different from how I'm used to. Had a little ma la to it as well as some heat. Great portion. Would have it again.

Yummm! Such a tasty lunch at Simply Sichuan in Chinatown! Be ready for a meal packed with flavor, including that mouthwatering Sichuan numby pepper. was pleasantly surprised that they have dimsum too (turns out its from Legends right next door). We got Couple's Sliced Beef with Chili Sauce, Fried Lamb with Cumin, and Dan Dan Mian. The beef had a really good flavor and the meat part was super tender (I'm just not a fan of tripe so I fed that part to my friend lol). My favorite was definitely the lamb though. Covered in spices and seasonings -- with a prominent flavor from the cumin seeds -- it's tender and not gamey. Next time I'd opt for the lamb ribs because I think it'll be more juicy on the bone. Next time I want to try the Boiled Fish in Hot Sauce and the Spicy Wontons (I've heard they're epic). Pro-tip: Check in on Yelp for free spicy wonton!

My family was looking for authentic (and spicy!) Chinese food and simply Sichuan did not disappoint Don't let it's hole-in-the wall parking spots or low volume of reviews fool you because the food and the service were fantastic! We got the cumin lamb, stir fry lettuce/cabbage, and chopped pepper fish fillet which all were delicious. Our waiter was extremely attentive, refilling and pouring o ur tea, and bringing out "special" spice from the back refrigerator. As you can tell, I only have positive words for simply Sichuan!

One of the best restaurants I went to. The owner was very nice and served complimentary home made chili oil, plum drink, and dessert. Not only was the quality of these foods top notch, but the service was out of the world. Would definitely visit again!
