I found this place a low average (say 1 1/2 stars). I have been there a few times for a quick lunch (sometimes with a large group) and have never seen anyone really like what they got. Although this is very close to work, it is unlikely I would go back unless hog-tied. I found the sauces particularly underwhelming. less

It's called Szechwan but at least half of the dishes are Cantonese. Maybe people in this area don't mind. I grew up near San Francisco Chinatown, so maybe I am a nick picker but the food is definitely "old school" Chinese. The kind of place Aunt E ... more

It's called Szechwan but at least half of the dishes are Cantonese. Maybe people in this area don't mind. I grew up near San Francisco Chinatown, so maybe I am a nick picker but the food is definitely "old school" Chinese. The kind of place Aunt Edna would recognize the menu. Having said that, the food is acceptable, it's just uninspiring. The interior decor is updated and dining room clean and the owner keeps a close eye on things. less

We really enjoy the food, but last time we had those MSG weird feelings and I thought they didn't cook with MSG. And then I had trouble sleeping and had that weird MSG hangover the next morning. While it was going down it was very good. We really like the potstickers and the Szechuan beef. The staff there (for takeout) is usually pretty rude, but...whatever. Anyway, ask for no MSG and enjoy! less
