Sichuan House - Lafayette

Got the Mapo Tofu and Szechuan green beans. My dad got the Gen. Tsao’s chicken. Hit the spot! Would order again! Big portions. Fast service. Clean and fresh food.The Mapo tofu was not vegetarian, but that’s ok with me. I’m not strict.

They don’t want you to dine in. They prefer if you order takeout. We waited five minutes before we were even acknowledged in a pretty much empty restaurant. The guy let out a big sigh, saying ‘oh man you want to eat in here’.Food took some time to come. The waiter while he was placing the food on the table told us thar it took so long because take out orders get priority. And you also have to pay 20% mandatory gratuity to eat in here. Apparently with that kind of attitude no one was leaving a tip. That’s why they made the gratuity Mandatory even for a party of one or two.The quality of food was good, but the service and attitude is probably the worst in the city.

The food was really good, and the cost was very low. The service was good, but they had in their headphones, which was a bit annoying. But very polite. The worst thing was the bathrooms. There was no soap in the dispenser, and it smelled awful, with no attempt to cover it up with perfume or something. Overall it’s good, but with a few downers.

Our favorite Chinese place in town! Highly recommend the spicy beef noodle soup. Service is always very friendly, I don't understand how this place is never very busy when we go!Food: 5/5

The food was quite tasty. Portion was ok. Nice and big dining space. Good to see great family operation.Food: 4/5
