tacoma szechuan

wonderfulszechuanfood! very authentic and they will try to make various dishes vegitarian upon request.

overpriced, but good.. i had a hard time finding a good chinese place when i moved out here from michigan, andszechuanis the best place i've found so far. i will only eat here at lunch time because an entree in the evening is $11+, and that't not including rice or anything on the side. expensive, but overall good food.

try the dry-fried. i really came to love the dry-friedszechuanpeppercorn flavored chicken and green beans. the flavor is more intense and the peppercorns are woodsy and have a numbing effect that i really like. reasonable and we like the waiters and waitresses, too!

house special beef tripe. there are no dishes under $10.00 this is a lie… expect to pay and average of $15.00 per plate. well i loveszechuanfood and the hot is no problem we order four other dishes my wife and guest are chinese so we know these are authentic however the cook has a very heavy hand with the salt, the only thing that burned our tong was the salt, we talked to one of the owners my wife knows them and to our surprise it didn't mater she said that she couldn't do anything about the salt, seems that if you like a large helping of salt this is the place.
we order the food and in five minutes it was in front of us…this tell me the food is pre made not fresh which can be the reason for the saltines it must have been cooking there for hours and condensing the salt.
i will never go there again not so much because of the salt any restaurants cook can have a bad day however the attitude of the owner themselves of not caring enough to even fiend out why is not what i pay for.
