  • Szechuan China easily has the best Chinese food I've eaten in CU, but they're lacking in consistency. 3.5 stars if I could. First, the bad: I've been here five times with friends and each time one of the dishes we order comes out looking like garbage, tasting extremely bland, or both. Once it was the spicy string bean (sijidou), which had no flavor at all. Just today, the "fine shred potato with spicy capsicum" (tudousi) I ordered came out gray. I'm just so confused - how do you stir fry potatoes and make them gray? I've ordered the same exact dish before, and the potatoes were a beautiful shade of gold. All of that said, though, the food here is great when the chefs are on-point. The mapo tofu, ox tongue, eggplant dishes, and twice cooked pork are all authentic and tasty Sichuan staples. It's on par with the stuff I've eaten back in Los Angeles, and approved by my friend from Sichuan. And really, the proof is in this place's popularity with the Chinese crowd. Even on a random Wednesday night, the place is packed with Chinese families waiting to get a taste of Sichuan. P.S. I'm Chinese. This means I get tons of advantages over other reviewers: I don't make the mistake of ordering one dish for myself and not eating family style (i.e. dishes are supposed to balance each other out, not dominate your mouth with one flavor for an hour). I know what I'm getting before it comes to the table, and what it should taste like. I know not to order off the American menu. It's disappointing to see that things like these fuel bad reviews when its a culture clash rather than a food issue.
