I ordered takeout, but it took over an hour. I have no idea why it was so slow; there weren't many other orders either. The service is also terrible.

I was surprised of bright flavour of Szechuan Gourmet Special Fried Rice because it wasn’t cooked traditionally. It had dried baby fish and baby shrimp. Also, I liked slightly spicy Jellyfish salad. It was crunchy and without seafood flavor.

Absolutely best Szechuan food. You will not regret anything on the menu. Won ton soup was the best I've had in YEARS. Delicious little to-go touches like duck sauce, and crispy chow mein crackers.
Anne Bradford
Clean, great service, and a wide variety of Szechuan meals. Fish soup, and eggplant with pork were my faves. Others at the table raved about the crispy lamb with cumin. Perfectly serviceable wine. Lively, but still cozy atmosphere.

We ordered Steamed Vegetable Dumplings, Fish Fillet w. Spicy Sauce & Pepper and vegetable fried rice. Loved all the dishes. Generally many restaurants we have been to gave us complimentary tea, we werent told it would be additional cost for tea. Other than that everything else was amazing. Ambiance was great

Seeing the younger people at our table saying bad things behind their backs, isn't that looking down on people? If you can't afford three or four hundred yuan, why would you say bad things about customers behind their backs? Think we don’t understand Cantonese?Seeing that the person at the table like us is young, he said bad things behind his back. Isn't this just looking down on others? It's not like he can't afford three or four hundred yuan, so why should he say bad things behind his back? Are you not a customer if you are young? With this attitude, the service fee is still 67$

Very very tasty. Great level of spice, flavor and combined with fresh ingredients. I was able to get in and out in 40 minutes which is great for a lunch spot. It does get busy so I'd recommend getting their
We celebrated my friend's birthday here. We loved their crispy whole fish with pine nuts sauce, which tasted so good and flavored-balanced. Also, their rousted duck was awesome too, very authentic! High recommend!

Worst tasting asian food. The hot and sour soup had a pungent odor, when I conveyed the same to the rude lade that everyone mentions here, she was forcing me to go for another soup instead. When i said nevermind, she was rude, made a face and took away the soup.Then comes the noodles, they were pathetic and the image below is what I left because i couldnt eat it.Will not recommend this place. Will never visit again.

Szechuan Gourmet is definitely one of the best Szechuan restaurants in Manhattan.It’s recommended by Bib Gourmand for years and we finally gave it a visit last weekend.We had their Mapo Tofu, Braised Fish Fillet w Roasted Chili, Sautéed String Beans and Braised Beef Flank Pot. Their portion was decent with a little high price but the taste was outstandingly delicious.The Mapo Tofu was one of my favorites. It was extremely soft and flavorful with mild spicy. Their Braised Fish Fillet w/ Roasted Chili was surprisingly tasty and flavorful. The texture of the fish was delicate with appetizing sauce.

Enforce MINIMUM 15% gratuity without announcement. I gave 10% because of below average service. The lady pushed me to change the number and I raised to 14%. Lately found out they still charge me 15%. USE ready-to-cook (RTC) food, not recommend.
