Szechuan Restaurants near College Point, NY

“I’m in the team of little pepper!“

“Came here for my anniversary dinner and was blown away by Breeze (pun intended). Easily some of, if not the best Sichuan food we’ve ever had. I got the Winter Frost #2 cocktail and I wasn’t sure what type of flavor I was expecting but it didn’t taste like what I expected in a good way! The cocktail had a mildly sweet, light but depth in flavor profile.

The ginger sauce green beans were some of the best green beans I’ve ever tasted. The sauce they used was addicting. Second favorite item was the diced chicken with chili pepper, which was super spicy but absolutely delicious. But to be honest all of the dishes were home runs! I was just here last night and I’m already daydreaming about coming back to try more dishes.

Also the service was exceptional. The restaurant was full and there were only two guys to cover the front of the house (the hostess, waiter, bartender, and bus boy). They definitely had their hand fulls but still were efficient. Since it was our anniversary dinner they ended up surprising us with a pumpkin rice cake dessert on the house which we thought was the sweetest gesture. I couldn’t have been happier since I absolutely love rice cakes 😋“

“Food, service & atmosphere was top notch. Highly recommend! 5⭐️“

“Food was great and the servers are very attentive, the place is welcoming, I l really like the atmosphere there. Food portions are large which is good. The cocktails are the best! I like everything from this place! Very recommend it“

“The food was delicious and the service was excellent. When the waiter heard that it was my birthday today, he gave me a cute and practical gift. I felt very happy. Thanks.“

“Antidote was such a great spot to have dinner on my visit to NYC. The wait was not too long considering there were 7 people in my party. We had so many items off the menu and the staff was very attentive to allergies and other food preferences. The tea smocked duck was incredible, the cucumber was amazing, the wontons were delicious! Everyone loved their dish it was absolutely a great dinner. The only downside was that some of the fish dishes were made with tilapia which is not a fish preference for most of the friends I was with. I will definitely be back and I highly recommend this restaurant“

“I was recommended this restaurant and took a chance on it as I was looking to diversify where I eat in Brooklyn. I ordered the chicken dumplings and fried rice with duck. Both were excellent and even for the lunch special, the portion of fried rice was too much for just one person. While the service wasn't particularly great, the food and prices were excellent.“

“Han Dynasty is one of my go-to restaurants for quality Chinese food in NYC. It is not a hole-in-the-wall establishment like many of the other Chinese restaurants in the city (not that there’s anything wrong with that). The space is large and comfortable, and the food is consistently delicious with very good drink options. The price point is also reasonable considering the location. I like how the menu specifies the spice level of each dish on a scale of 1-10, although I find the calibration to be more American rather than Szechuan spice levels, no surprise. But if you need a real hit just ask for an 11 and the chef will deliver.“

“Hot Space is the place we go for the grilled fish and frogs.

They have the real authentic flavors, that’s all it matters.

The service here is great, all the servers are very nice and attentive.

I don’t remember how many times we’ve been here, and i just realized that I’ve never left a review.“

“Everything is good“

“I was there at Jian Nan Syosset, Long Island. Everything went great!! But, those took the orders needed to be more educated to understand each dishes. We were a fairly larger group than standard party size. Some dished were small and some dim sum served with small quantities, like 3 or 4. Those who order for the large group, should give suggestion to order multiple orders for the same dish. So, each one in the group can have at least one.“

“I had a wonderful dining experience at Grand Sichuan. One of the main reasons I went was because they serve Sautéed Loofah (sponge gourd) — a rare dish that I’ve never seen offered at even the most authentic Chinese restaurants in the U.S.

Before placing my order, I asked the waitress whether the loofah would be bitter — since sometimes it can be, depending on the season. She kindly explained that, according to other customers’ feedback, the loofah at this time of year is not bitter. Her explanation reassured me, so I decided to go ahead and order it. And she was absolutely right — the sautéed loofah turned out fresh, tender, and not bitter at all.

I ended up ordering two dishes:
• Sautéed Loofah (sponge gourd)
• Chinese Vegetables with Black Mushroom

Both dishes were absolutely delicious, with flavors that reminded me of authentic Chinese cooking.

On top of the great food, the service was outstanding. In addition to the waitress, another waiter was patient and attentive, carefully explaining the menu to me and even showing me pictures on his phone since the menu itself didn’t have photos. That extra effort helped me feel comfortable choosing the right dishes and made the whole dining experience smooth and enjoyable.

I give Grand Sichuan five stars not only for the food but also for the wonderful service. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“This place is seriously so good! The service is super friendly and quick, and the food tastes amazing. There are tons of options to choose from, so there’s something for everyone. It’s tucked away in this cute little spot that honestly makes you feel like you’re somewhere in Asia. The vibe is really chill and pretty—definitely a spot worth checking out!“

“Large quantities and yummy food! We got 2 combos for two for 6 ppl and it was more than enough food. We got the classic spice with bean curd and king oyster mushrooms, chicken wings, and pork belly. We also got the tomato soup with fish and beef with lotus root and wide noodles plus milk custard and spicy noodles. Would come again!“

“Hands down probably the best Chinese food in the city. I could eat here everyday.“

“Great authentic food. Really enjoyed it.“

“What a great find!!! Place was cool inside, food was yummy, we liked it a lot. Staff were friendly and nice. We will definitely go back.“

“Fantastic gem in LIC. Great authentic flavors and extensive menu. Fun cocktails too!! Highly recommend the black jack beef, Mongolian lamb, Changsha chicken and dragon eye for dessert. Amazing. Liam was our server and was very attentive, personable and gave great recommendations. Check it out!“

“I came to this restaurant last month to order takeout, and the young man at the front desk was very enthusiastic in introducing the menu. When he found out it was my partner’s birthday, he added a free dessert to my order and wished him a happy birthday. It was truly sweet!!!“

“good place with chinese food. Will be here with my friends next time.“

“This Chinese restaurant offers a spacious and clean dining area, making it a comfortable place to enjoy a meal. The service is attentive, ensuring a pleasant experience from start to finish. Food is served quickly, perfect for those looking for a fast yet satisfying meal. The flavors are delicious, with fresh ingredients and well-balanced seasoning. Their lunch special is a great deal, making it my go-to choice whenever I visit.“

“Food is amazing. They go there w the mala and I love it. 10/10 recommend if you are about that life. Service is fantastic also.

I ordered chili woodears (amazing), the mouth numbing chili chicken, snow peas, golden eggplant and topped it off w the VEGAN black sesame. EVERYTHING WAS AMAZING. (well the black sesame ice cream could have been MORE black sesame but few people nail this so it's okay still good)“

“HUGE portion sizes for the price (lowkey could’ve just ordered one regular size). Ended up w too much food and took home lots of leftovers

Went during Christmas time and got the seasonal deal: “Buy Combo for Two (2 Regular Portion Main Dishes +1 Snack + 2 Drinks) And Enjoy $10 OFF Your Bill,” but they forgot to take the $10 off so had to ask specifically. Next time, skip this and get the snakehead large portion set meal for two people

- Signature aromatic hot oil suancai fish (snakehead fish regular portion): Reallllyyy yummy and tasted better than the laotan suancai. Not really spicy, but too oily
- Laotan suancai fish (basa fish regular portion): Kinda mala. Mushroom and cabbage was a yummy free add on
- Brown sugar glutinous rice cake: VERY yummy and SO chewy and warm. Must get side
- Passionate fruit tea: Too sweet, not a fan. Tried the milk tea too - get this instead

* Note: idk the diff b/w basa and snakehead fish, tasted the same to me. Both were tender“

“You get honest value for your dining dollars. The meals here taste great, cost less than most places and the employees are nice. Service is good, no complaints at all. The flavors here are noteworthy. This spot makes social dining enjoyable with quality options.“

“The best Chinese food in the US been going here 5x a month for 4.5yrs. Top tier food good service based on language barrier. 100/10

Dietary restrictions: Good for Muslims or non pork eaters

Wheelchair accessibility: Perfect no stairs and alot of space“

“Hands down probably the best Chinese food in the city. I could eat here everyday.“

“A nice elevated Chinese place in Greenpoint for when you don’t feel like going down to Chinatown. I think you get a good value for the atmosphere and quality of food you get, along with portions too. All hits for me.

The Mapo Tofu was super good. Not overkill spicy and very flavorful. I really liked it. $15, but of course you need rice so $17. My GF got the Chicken Soup which I thought was okay. I’ve had variants of this, and I think the broth had an meh flavor.

Overall, though, a great bang for your buck and I’ll be coming back!“

“Very good food and drinks 🍹“

“I'm completely sold on this place after my first visit. Our group had a wonderful dining experience. Yelp steered me toward this excellent spot. Their service team was sufficiently attentive. I'd eat here again and suggest others visit.“

“the staff here is super friendly and nice don't get me wrong, the food here is also super good but i'm just salty at the fact that they only have AYCE after 9pm and every other time of the day they only do a la carte, other than that their opening hours are kind of short too“

“It’s a hole in the wall Chinese place with great prices and great food. The A + B special is borderline customer robbery and the women behind the counter is a always friendly if you are. I visit here 1-2 times per week and will continue doing so.“

“Great food. It was delicious and very tasty. Great service . Price was reasonable. They gives you good amount of food. we just celebrated a birth day there. i tell the world about this place“

“First time here food amazing will be back“

“LOVE LOVE LOVE OLLIE’s !! The food is always consistently great!! #LoveChineseFood Super friendly staff!!!“

“Tai Er is amazing! The spicy sour fish soup is the best and so flavorful with that perfect numbing kick. It is inside Tangram which makes it a fun spot since you can walk around and explore after eating. Definitely a go to if you are craving bold flavors.“

“We ordered a couple of pork dishes - no surprise there. Actually, we had pork dumplings first, so make that three pork dishes. Dumplings were good, a bit of a challenge to eat. Fun. Shredded pork Peking style was just the right spice level. Moo Shu pork dish also very nice. Pancakes really good.“

“Awesome scallion pancakes, hot and sour soup, and chicken fried rice. We eat here as soon as we land from Saint Louis each time we visit NYC. Staff is extremely attentive and always on top of anything you need.“

“Such a staple. Especially for Szchzean fix.
Hot& sour soup, mapo tofu, fried rice can't go wrong.
Did have shots of namesake Wu Liang Ye now priced $20. Chaser Tsingtao of course. Deadly night drinking much water afterwards. But, when seldom comes, why not splurge.“

““I had the sautéed broccoli with shrimp and it was delicious! The service was outstanding — Jessie made the experience truly enjoyable. She is attentive, kind, and professional, which really makes a difference. Highly recommend this place!”“

“Great fresh noodles, good balance of ingredients, tasty soup base, efficient and friendly service.“

“Good ambient Good food Great services love this restaurants“

“Amazingly fresh tasty food!“

“I have been coming here since I was a child when they were still at their old location and it has remained my favorite Chinese restaurant. The food is always delicious and consistent. The shredded sesame chicken, scallion pancakes, and hot and sour soup are my go to dishes but everything on the menu is wonderful! The white tablecloths and beautiful atmosphere make the dining experience feel special, and the servers are always warm and caring. I leave every time feeling happy, full, and grateful this place is still just as good as ever! How many other restaurants can you say that about?“

“great service excellent food“

“Mazu is the restaurant I used to go to and it’s the same owner and the chef
The wonderful waitress Amy is still here and I strongly ask everybody to come here because Amy is here
It’s the best Chinese restaurant in the upper Eastside and For Sure one of the best ones in the city“

“My first time at Hans Dynasty and the food was tasty.“

“I like the Cozy environment and foods are really good! If you like spicy food,it is your best choice😋“

“Bean curd dishes are delicious, dry pot is delicious, and boiled noodles are delicious, but this Chongqing spicy noodles are really unpalatable. The soup base is like hot pot base mixed with water, and the noodles are still dried noodles. The whole package of instant noodles is Better than this, why are other dishes so delicious, but this small noodle is so uncomfortable☹️“

“This is the BEST Chinese food in the area hands down. Everything is always fresh and tasty. Wonton soup, sweet & sour chicken, chicken w/mixed vegetables, chicken wings, egg rolls, scallion pancakes, fried rice… everything is delicious.“

“Good food and beautiful decor. The service is very good too.“
