Szechuan Restaurants near Boston, MA

“Had a last-minute birthday dinner here for 10. They were really busy but squeezed us in when they heard it was my birthday. The food was beautiful - I had tried the brilliant NYC outlet before and this did not disappoint. Fresh and varied flavours, great price, fast as lightning. The incredibly friendly staff sang me happy birthday, and even gave me a small gift! What more could I ask for?“

“We have a new office in Boston. So periodically I drive down from our main office to the Boston location and every time I do, I have resolved to try a new restaurant. This was today’s choice and it was SPECTACULAR! My server was fantastic. The food came out quickly and was insanely good. I didn’t know how big my stir-fried rice cake bowl would be so I ordered the sweet and sour pork loin to go with it. But the rice cake bowl was huge and tasted incredible. Lots of heat, lots of fresh prepared veggies and meat. 10/10 would recommend that dish. The pork tenderloin I tried and 10/10 would recommend it as well. The location is a bit small and that is literally the only nit I can pick. If you’re in this area, get some take out or eat in , you won’t regret it!!“

“Ordered the Xiangs Sweet Spicy Crispy Chicken W Peanuts and Chicken Fried Rice. Both were wonderful and some of the best Chinese takeout I’ve ever had. Tons of flavor, the chicken fried rice had a distinct grilled taste which was different but really good“

“A five star restaurant for Sichuan food - one of the best in Boston! Foods are delicious and fresh. Recommend dessert menus as well. Atmosphere is cute and young. Serving is friendly. Restroom is clean and roomy. On the way, kitchen is open for one to have a peek and looks neat. The location could be tricky to find if you drive as its located on the narrow Commonweath ave branched off the main ave. So make sure you drive into the branch ave between the subway railroad and buildings.“

“11/10 quality, taste, service!! tastes just like home and price is also one of the most reasonable in the area! automatically became a go to restaurant upon first visit. got the pork and green peppers, dan dan noodles, spam fried rice, mapo tofu, and shredded potatoes and each dish was ABSOLUTELY delicious!!“

“We’ve recently started spending more time around the Brookline and Allston area, and this Saturday we decided to give BOS’ SiChuan Taste (一碟川菜馆) a try. First of all, it was surprisingly easy to find street parking nearby. After checking with the owner, we were happy to hear that they welcome well-behaved dogs to dine with you—our husky Max was able to sit with us instead of waiting in the car, which made our experience even better.

Unlike many other places, the owner and staff here are actually from Sichuan, and you can really feel that in both their hospitality and the food. The dishes were authentic and flavorful—especially the cold noodles, which reminded us of the real taste we’ve missed for a long time. The fish dish we ordered was also cooked in a unique Sichuan style: very refresh, tender and delicious, and with no fishy smell at all.

Even Max got treated to a bowl of ice water!

We truly loved the experience and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for real Sichuan food, especially if you want to avoid the crowds of Boston’s Chinatown.“

“I discovered this restaurant while bicycling to Lexington on the Minuteman Trail. I love the traditional dining room with table cloths and Chinese decorations. The food is excellent and the staff is friendly and attentive. It has become one of my favorite Chinese restaurants in Boston.“

“I recently dined at this restaurant and found the portion sizes to be more than generous, easily enough to satisfy a hungry appetite. I particularly enjoyed the chicken lo mein. The general gau chicken, however, was a bit too oily for my liking, and the egg rolls were rather bland in taste. I'm not entirely familiar with Chinese cuisine, so I'm unsure if that's how they are typically prepared, but it didn't quite suit my palate. On the positive side, the price point is quite affordable, and the restaurant offers decent seating for those looking to dine in. Overall, it's a good option if you're looking for a hearty meal at a reasonable price.

“Great for mala (dry) and for other shareable plates. Their large dish can definitely be split between 3 or so people. Would highly recommend recommend if you’re in the area and craving something spicy. Parking is of course very difficult to find, but not unusual for the area.“

“Best of hand made dumplings. Our whole family including little kids love them. Definitely try them! You don’t know what delicacies you are missing u til you try them. The wrappers’textures are amazing. It has soup in it and the meat is great.
Their rice and noodles dishes are all very good. Service is quick and friendly.“

“I've been here twice. First time with family and second time with a group of old friends. They serve a variety of Chinese dishes including some very authentic Sichuan dishes.
The prices are decent for the city since it has a large Chinese student based customer from MIT and Harvard.
Services are above average for Chinese restaurants.“

“The food is absolutely amazing, so fresh. 2nd visit and will definitely be back. The staff is so pleasant and I can’t say enough about the foods we tried. Can’t wait to go again at try a few more items on the menu.“

“My 100% go-to for hot pot. Sauce bar, all-you-can-eat, huge menu, and great service. What else can I say? You’ll be eating within five minutes of sitting down. Also, don’t forget the to-go ice cream if you eat in! Ibasaw checks all the boxes when it comes to hot pot.“

“Upon search for a Chinese restaurant in the area. We found Westwood Jade in Westwood, Ma. We ordered, it was good food, price and service. Everything was very good. The Pork fried rice how I like it with eggs well cooked with (no hard grains), chicken wings were nice and soft not extra crispy, ribs were not chewy and not hard just perfect, chicken lo main was nice and saucy and not sweet which I loved, not dry, loaded with chicken, cabbage was nice and crisp and onions just the right amount very tasty, and crab Rangoon were crispy, warm and the filling was perfect. They gave us plates, forks, spoons, napkins, sauces, fortune cookies and hot sauce. 10/10 Thank you we enjoyed your service! God Bless.“

“The most delicious Sichuan food in the area! My go tos are the Dan Dan noodles and hot and spicy tofu. Dan Dan noodles are spicy with the unique numbing sensation. The hot and spicy tofu is crispy with delicious spicy flavor. I usually get takeout since the ambience is pretty simple inside. Service is always quick, and sometimes pack complimentary kimchi to go, which is also super yummy. Prices went up a bit post covid but it’s still worth it!“
