Chengdu Gourmet in Squirrel Hill is a Chinese restaurant that offers a wide variety of options and has friendly staff. It is known for its authentic Chinese food, making it a favorite among locals. The spicy Chongqing chicken is particularly popular and is described as incredible and "the chicken of the gods." Other menu items that have received praise include the chili oil dumplings, Dan Dan noodles, hot and spicy soup, and raindrop dessert. Recently, dishes like Double-cooked Pork Belly w/ Black Bean Chili, Mapo Tofu, and Sichuan Beef Noodles (Dry) have also impressed diners, with the pork belly standing out as a favorite.
The restaurant has been noted for its quick service and kind staff. Guests have appreciated the attentive service, with hosts explaining the different menus for first-time visitors. However, there have been some issues with orders not being accurately fulfilled, such as one diner ordering pork intestines and receiving pork spare ribs instead.
Chengdu Gourmet also offers an American Chinese menu, but it is not commonly ordered from as it would detract from the authentic experience. The restaurant's McKnight Rd location is known for having Chef Wei Zhu, who is considered one of the top chefs in Pittsburgh. It is recommended to dine in a group and order family-style as the dishes are typically prepared for single servings. The food is generally well-prepared, but there have been some complaints about the toughness of the beef tongue special. The fish fillet with pickled cabbage has been praised as a standout dish. Overall, diners enjoy the quality ingredients and spicy flavors, with many expressing their eagerness to return for more authentic Chinese food.
