I've been a fan of this place since they took over the restaurant from the previous, Tink Holl Seafood. I've enjoyed Szechuan Gourmet and have been one of its biggest cheerleaders. I still enjoy the place but it has been inconsistent for the past 6 or 8 months. For example, the Lotus Root and Peanut dish is sometimes prepared with a generous amount of ginger and Szechuan pepper corns. Other times it arrives to the table lacking garlic, ginger and peppercorns. The Garlic Eggplant is usually my most favorite version of this dish but sometimes of late it arrives without its usual punch. Same for many other dishes. The good news is even when Szechuan Gourmet's dishes aren't up to their usual level they are still really good dishes but it's a disappointment when they aren't as good as usual. I've tried to express this at the restaurant but it seems to fall on deaf ears. My hope is that this Yelp review will help them pay more attention.
