Welcome to Authentic Szechuan

“ Remarkably impressive! The employees' professionalism was the key highlight. Get different plates and find what you like. You get satisfying amounts for what you spend. I'm coming back to this restaurant soon! ”

“ This is a great place to satisfy some deep fried spicy cravings. It’s quieter than the usual. Great quantity and sense of space. ”

“ Fantastic food! We order dumpling in chilli oil, ginger fish, string beans and everything was 10/10. Also fairly affordable by New York standards. ”

“ This is my choice for best Chinese food establishment in Brooklyn. The food is consistently fresh, delicious, and well presented. I find the menu and flavors at this place are of a more sophisticated palate when it comes to Chinese food. Their dishes are more on the "authentic" side, and their seasoning and preparation of dishes makes them stand out amidst many options for this cuisine in the area. The interior deco and ambiance if this place is also more elegant, which awards them the best rating. Don't be afraid to request items or dishes not on the menu (we requested baby bok choy), when they are able to accommodate, they do it well. Came today for New Year's celebration and was not disappointed! ”

“ My husband and I have been ordering from here (and occasionally dining in) probably once a week since we moved to the neighborhood. Extremely consistent quality, great bang for your buck, and a huge menu with all the hits (not just Szechuan dishes). The food comes out crazy fast and it hits every time. Our favorites are the Chongqing spicy chicken, the twice-cooked pork lunch special, the pickled veg + fish soup, and salt & pepper chicken wings but really everything we’ve tried has been great. I love you Authentic Szechuan ”

“ I always order take out & pick it up, it's always prepared pretty quickly. The Cumin Lamb is the best in this neighborhood. Also the Singapore noodles are great (I add additional proteins, which it's great that you can do that). Can't speak on the basic/typical American Chinese dishes, but the specialty dishes are really good. ”

“ Solid mapo tofu and scallion pancake. There is a bathtub for customers and it's relatively clean. The servers and owners were doing their own thing, no problem still very nice folks. ”

“ Five stars because it’s hard to find truly authentic regional Chinese cuisine in this part of brooklyn. Order: soup dumplings, double cooked pork and salt and pepper shrimp. No, soup dumplings aren’t Szechuan, but these were reasonably well executed. The order was delivered quickly via car (the restaurant does its own seamless deliveries and that seems to be a really good thing) and these didn’t suffer from the delay that many soup dumplings will. To be fair, the dough wasn’t the impossibly thin variety of an iconic xiao long bao, but the slightly thicker dumpling may be the reason why it traveled reasonably well. Double cooked pork was classically prepared (thankfully no fake corn and dried shitake mushrooms in this version) with sliced pork belly, leeks and the appropriate Szechuan seasonings and sauce. The pork had a nice smoky flavor - nicely done. I wasn’t as much a fan of the salt and pepper shrimp - it seemed like they got confused and made it more like a doughy tempura than the classic preparation. But still a fair amount of large shrimp (10 in my box) and we’ll-prepared if not truly authentic. The menu does give away the fact that they are trying to satisfy two audiences, authentic Szechuan aficionados as well as Chinese American tastes. In this part of brooklyn, you can do a lot worse. ”
