Don't come here. When you pay, you say you can swipe a card, but when you actually go to pay, you tell me that the POS machine is broken and you can only transfer money to Zelle in cash. It's a good trick. Zelle can't charge a penny less for transfers. The service attitude is very poor. The amount of bullfrog and roast duck is the smallest I have ever seen. In this photo, I didn’t even eat a bite, it’s just so little. The amount of husband and wife's lung slices was so small that it was gone in one bite for three people. disappointment. . . Not good, cash only.. Trust me. I never post good or bad review before. Disappointed.

I gave a 5 star because I really want this business to do well!1. The service was great for a Chinese place. It's one lady working the whole front. She was nice and attentive, she was even kind to the delivery pick up people that came in, and packed the to go for me at the end of my meal!2. Delicious food, good portions. Comparatively, it's the lower price of what you can find of quality Chinese food. I don't recommend getting the fresh cut fish because they actually fillet the fish so there are some fine bones and it's not cleaned very well. Flavor still good and didn't bother me. The cold noodle is a must, less on the tangy side and more on spice. I do love that the chili in this dish is very clean and doesn't have that burnt taste some other places have. I was only able to try 2 dishes but I would definitely come back for more.3. The restaurant is very spacious but it's not a bougie place. Come here for a good meal, not the view. There's definitely bigger tables that can seat large parties.4. Parking is probably the worst since it's mostly streets and it's on a big street. But not difficult to find parking though you may have to walk a few steps.Would love to see this restaurant thrive.

One of the best ways to know a place is good is if it's popular with the locals. I was the only none Chinese person in there the whole time we were in there. Just a warning, it's best to come with someone who speaks Chinese as it's was clear no one working there really understood English. That's fine though cause the place is nice, clean, lots of tables. Service is a bit slow because everyone working there is older, I think, family owned. But the food itself is perfection! We got the chicken cold noodle, which has a bit of a kick and very flavorful, though could've had more chicken. The shredded pork with green bell peppers, a classic dish we don't see often. Spicy for sure, but super flavorful, but be careful of too much oil. Lastly, the mapo tofu is some of the best I've ever had. Not too spicy, lots of Sichuan peppercorn flavor instead. I couldn't stop eating it! Price are also great. All in all, I'm gonna be returning to try other things soon!

We ordered a fish dish and a garlic bacon, fish is ok but garlic is not what really is, more like salty pork or same as twice cooked pork, but the price is close to $27 while twice cooked pork is close to $15. This is ridiculous high for this dish no matter which restaurant. It’s a cash only restaurant run by family. We won’t be back here since there are many similar restaurants around here and is better priced.

Too salty. Not as good as other Szechuan restaurants. Maybe people not from Szechuan will like it. But for myself I am not really enjoy the food here. The price is okay. But the food is not what I expected. Drunk lots of water, every dishes really salty. So not totally enjoy the food. The service is also so slow. Only one lady outside, maybe is the wife. Hope they could improve more in the future.

This restaurant is appropriately named: Delicious, indeed!The food is fantastic. I liked / loved everything I ate. My dining party and I were hopeful, based on the reviews, and based on the salty peanuts they serve as appetizer. And the food did not disappoint. The name of this place could be Delightful and Delicious or Delightfully Delicious Szechuan. Their Kung Pao chicken is among the best I've had (and I must've had my favorite dish in at least a few hundred Chinese restaurants across America. The Szechuan dried green headland were also great. Plump, crisp beans with a tasty meat sauce. Rounding out the meal were scrambled eggs with tomatoes, potatoes with minced meat, and sweet and sour soup (which did seem to be missing pepper or other spice). All around, I highly recommend!Ps, for the non-American Chinese taste, this restaurant offers (what this ABC tends to refer to as) more exotic, authentic menu items...

It’s amazing. The fish is super delicious. Every dish makes me unable to stop. The only thing that can make me stop is the spiciness ?
Whoa! This is one amazing new Szechuan restaurant located right on the border of Rosemead, Temple City, and San Gabriel. From the outside, it is so nondescript you might not notice it or instantly dismiss it, and that would be a big mistake for you. This was some of the best, spiciest Szechuan food we've had in the SGV ever. Street parking out front was easy. I don't think people have caught on to this place yet, cause it was not packed, but then again we did go late on a weekday. Service was very friendly and attentive. And, there were a bunch of tables with what seemed like happy patrons. Also, inside, the place is nicely decorated, contrasting with the exterior of all the businesses on their block, which are just drab cement grey. We got the fried sauce dry noodles, which are dan dan noodles, and they were excellent. It was kind of funny, because I had already noticed photos on Yelp of the wife owner mixing people's noodles when they don't do it right fast enough. Sure enough, she stepped in within a couple seconds and insisted on mixing our noodles. I cannot complain because she did a terrific job of it, and on top of that the noodles were absolutely delicious. Some of the best dan dan noodles I've had in the SGV. I will say that we love spicy. Really spicy. And, even though my wife is Chinese-American, I am white, and I have always noticed most places will ignore my pleas to make the food really spicy and bring me food that is not spicy at all. Well, that was definitely not the case here. We asked for extra spicy, and man did they try to kill me. LOL! I loved every minute of it, as did my son, but if you are not okay with really, really spicy, do not tell them to make it extra, extra spicy. We were both sweating, just the way we like it. The chicken with szechuan peppers (or Chong Qing chicken) was outstanding. Sometimes restaurants overdo the seasoning or make it really oily, but not here. This isn't a dish I always order because of some places I've had it, but I loved it here. I will definitely order it again. It was extremely spicy as requested. The Szechuan fried green beans were also excellent and very, very spicy. God bless them. The kung pao chicken was also also very, very good and spicy as heck. Basically, this is one of the best new Szechuan restaurants in the SGV. You must run to try it. Please go and support the business. I don't want it to go anywhere for a long, long time. Try it! You'll like it! Truuuuuust me.

Great place for spicy food. Very tasty unlike the typical Chinese spicy food restaurant that has more chili than the meat.I am not thirsty or uncomfortable after the meal so I guess less or no MSG.
