This place has some of the best authentic Sichuan food I've ever had, eclipsing even the Sichuan restaurants I've tried in San Francisco's chinatown. Service can be a little slow (though not frustratingly so), but your patience will be rewarded. Dishes feature the trademark chili-oil-slick and spicy-yet-numbing taste of Sichuan food - which may sound undesirable if you're not familiar with authentic Sichuan cuisine, but I assure you these are marks of quality so don't be afraid to dive right in. Even the complimentary hot tea is a strong, earthy, authentic Pu-Erh which I could drink by the pot if given the opportunity. Prices are also very reasonable, so there's no excuse not to throw caution to the wind and try an appetizer or two, or an interesting-looking dish that you may not be able to pronounce. This place is absolutely one of very few Cleveland restaurants I would legitimately call diamonds-in-the-rough. A trip to Szechuan Gourmet is much cheaper than a plane ticket to China, but you'll swear you're there from the very first bite.
