amazing sushi, thd general tso's chicken is very crispy and flavorful. The servers give great service, and the ambience is very cozy and clean.
Szechuan Cafe has been our go to for years and years. The food is great the restaurant is very clean and they offer a sushi bar as well. The ambiance is sit down and well appointed they do offer carry out and delivery. Staff and service is friendly. We love the house fried rice, Shrimp with lobster sauce it tasty with large shrimp. And the large egg rolls are really good. All the brown sauce based dishes along with the light sauce based dishes hit the mark. Hard to find this type of place where all the dishes are good but Szechuan Cafe does.
I get carry out here when I'm in the area. Their portions are large and the price is on the higher end also. I have had the sushi and also carry out dinners. It's always been tasty and fresh.
I just got back from spending 3-1/2 years in Japan and have been looking for a new Chinese Restaurant after discovering that my former favorite Chinese Restaurant had closed, I had tried several Chinese restaurants in May area and was about to give up and just settle....but it was suggested that I try the "Szechuan Cafe" in Pasadena MD. As it turns out Szechuan Cafe was TOTALLY Awesome!! The restaurant was so good that it surpassed my former favorite restaurant by leaps and bounds...The place was tastefully decorated, it was warm, inviting and a comfortable place to dine. The waitress was so friendly and helpful, she helped me navigate the large selection of appetizers and entrees. I had the Crab Rangoons and Shrimp Toast as appetizers, and General Tso Chicken, the Crab Rangoons were crispy and delicious, the Shrimp Toast was generously filled and very flavorful, General Tso Chicken was not too sweet, or too spicy but just the perfect balance of both, the Chicken was large portions and tender. Szechuan Cafe is now my ALL-TIME FAVORITE CHINESE RESTAURANT! I fully recommend trying this place if your looking for great food and place to eat.
The staff here is very nice and always accommodating. Very modern decor but still has the Chinese ambiance. My wife really likes the sushi. Personally I the prefer orange chicken, which is a very large portion and very good.
Judging by the fact that there is always a line to get in here at night, Szechuan Café should be nothing short of five stars. It's our third time here and this time we are here because we got a gift certificate for Christmas. Luckily we got here before 630 because thats when the line forms at the door. And the takeout line is almost as long. This family run establishment runs like a perfectly greased wheel. Everyone who is working here does every job. You never go long without an unfilled water glass or beverage. Plates are cleared discreetly and quietly without interrupting you. The table settings include high-quality napkins which are sadly missing today at many of the places we dine. And you don't have to ask for extras because they always give you a couple extra. Plus everyone who works here smiles at every table as they walk by. It's just really good old fashioned service that makes our experience even better. But none of that would matter if the food didn't live up. Well the food does live up to our expectations and in fact often times exceeds our expectations. The portion sizes are large. Presentation is wonderful and the food is great. There aren't enough superlatives. I just know that I'm glad to have found this place and we will be back often.
