Szechwan Palace is a charming small Chinese restaurant in Antioch. Currently, the atmosphere is a bit disrupted due to ongoing construction, but it still retains a cozy and inviting feel.
Food: I have visited Szechwan Palace numerous times and always enjoy the food. The drunken noodles and egg rolls are my favorites. On my last visit, I tried the Kung Pao beef, which was quite good but could use a bit more wok flavor. The soup, while tasty, could benefit from a bit more spice and the addition of shiitake or Chinese mushrooms, a touch more sourness, ginger, a hint of sugar, and some rice vinegar to enhance its flavor.
Service: The service at Szechwan Palace is consistently very good. The staff are polite and attentive, ensuring a pleasant dining experience.
Overall: Despite the current construction, Szechwan Palace remains a delightful spot for authentic Szechuan cuisine in Antioch. I look forward to returning and seeing the progress on the renovations and AUTHENTIC ASIAN FOOD !!!!!

Price gouging customers by illegally surcharging credit cards over 3% ( $5,000 fine per transaction) and surcharging debit check cards anything is a ($30,000.00 fine per transaction.) Do the math $1.00 surcharge on $10 lunch special is a 10% surcharge , $20 sale its 5%. They think since it's not put in software and on s piece of paper near register they will not get caught. It's called PRICE GOUGING YIUR CUSTOMERS. Any surcharges that are higher than advertised menu priced MUST SHOW as a line item on each receipt. Also a regulation. They know exactly what they are doing and play dumb. I have the documentation to prove it too. Do not support any restaurant that plus this game, also no minimum purchase amount for credit cards us allowed . If the price goes UP at the resister from menu price it's a surcharge. True Cash Discount the price goes DOWN from menu price at register and its shows the discount t on receipts. ?

I thought we would try a different Chinese place, and boy was that a mistake. We ordered 7 different items. Each was worse than the last. Nothing was palatable. It was by far the worst Chinese food I have ever eaten. I'm in no way a picky eater. This was so memorably bad that I will never forget this experience. I will stick to Asian Harbor from now on.

Those people are so sweet and their food is so good the eggrolls are so awesome. That girl who handles the front desk is such a sweetheart.

The true definition of "hole in the wall" restaurant. I stumbled across this place totally by accident, but was glad I had. Normally my favorite Chinese place, another such tiny place, is a 30 minute drive since we moved. It became problematic to go pick up food, since it would be cool by the time I'd get home. Well I did an exhaustive search for an establishment with great food, made fresh, that was closer to home. One after another, disappointed and I'd find myself making the hour round trip for great Chinese. Then one day, when I wasn't even looking, I happened to pull into a parking lot just to get myself together, can't recall why, and I see this place just tucked away in a strip mall that I really don't pay attention to. I'm so glad I gave it a shot because I was so impressed with how good the food was, and the prices are equally impressive!! They'd probably benefit from a better location, but I digress. Happy I found them!!

This was our first time here. Decided to give it a try because the reviews were good.This was absolutely delicious. I am not a big fan of egg rolls but theirs was good. Dip it in the hot mustard if want to clear your sinus.It is small inside but it is worth it to get the service of the staff so pleasant.There were alot of carry out orders.
Chicken fried rice was clumpy and the large is smaller size than it used to be

Small place with dine in and take out, very good Chinese food and Thai as well. I recommend the salt and pepper fish which is a little spicy but excellent ?

Let's start by sharing that I have passed this restaurant more times than I can count and the out front look was always the reason why I wouldn't stop here along with so many negative reviews, which I would disagree based on my experience...that said, today was the day I gave it a try to see it for myself...let's start by remembering ourselves to not judge a book by it's cover ...this is a true hidden gem, so don't let the outside fool you or keep you from coming here ...food was DELICIOUS, prices are super reasonable for what you get overall!!!, place is small but mighty..service is great, cute small location with take out as well. Staff is super patient and attentive to your needs. Lavatory I did not visit so I cannot comment. My overall experience was great!! If you're in the area and looking for some yummy food with great service, then this is the place to chow down!!!! Highly recommend.
