Szechuan Chef Chinese Restaurant

This place is kind of strange and the service is not great, but I come back and again because it is amazing Chinese food. the portions are gigantic, so I always know that it will take me two meals! also the szechuan noodles should die. a must order! I also love the kung pow tofu, hand shaved noodles and egg blossom soup. the menu is so big that I always come back because everything is great!

Very good if they like authentic szechuan kitchen. ambiente: well, not much really. a kind of worn and shroff in the greatest dead and once alive john 's watertower. szechuan koch has replaced the friendly but boring shanghai noble house. I ate at snh quite often, this is a completely different place and I feel a real step up where its traditional menu serves, something in short supply in portland. <br/ <br/ service: friendly, very casual, limited speech and servicing, definitiw not highbrow.<br/ <br/ eat: eierblood soup is prefabricated in a large boiler, not to write home. where this place shines, is located in the top of its main dishes. <br/ hot spicy special hand grass noodles are thick, white and chewing, clear handmade and tasty. spicy, oily as someone would make home. fried rice is full of garnel, fish and tinted fish, not mumie, good quality. <br/ double delight mushroom bark- amazing, juicy mushrooms and much bark, they will not ask 'where 'the bark ' they don't chintz here, this is a rich and tasteful, but not spicy dish. this is the real deal, they better like cumin when they order this dish, its rich and heavy preparation.<br/ <br/ again if they want to hack suey, chow my, egg roll and a flower suppe, they are at the wrong place. if they want a real tase of szechuan, they go for it.

My wife I visited portland from seattle and looked for Szechuan food, and this place came up. after reading the reviews we thought to try it, as we are both big fans of the kitchen. this restaurant definitely has a good ambiente and comfortable seating. we ordered hot sour soup, chopped pfeffer fish, cumin lamb fish fillet in hot spicy gravy. After we have all tried up in many excellent Szechuan restaurants, we believe that everything was just the fish that was very good, but not the best we had. a suggestion (which does not affect this rating) is if you can keep a few dessert options on the menu. overall, worth it!

Eat the second time here. I think the special items are the best, tbh. we had the in-house lamb in a small flaming wok! so good! our other two dishes were moderate. the dry roasted green beans were good, but not impressive. and the Szechuan style tofu was not very hot or tasteful. not like the lamb shell. that's great. more of it! overall, mostly good. I would stick to their special food.

The food was better. kung pao huhn was not as if it was earlier, not taste fresh either pot stickers just okay. better in the city not a fan of hand-razed noodles chicken breast meat was good, but had hoped noodles were regular chow mine, but this is on me. the selection of the beer was not what the menu had — bad had to be updated
