"Yummy! I read through a lot of the reviews on here before deciding on Szechuan Garden for my family's Christmas Eve Dinner. What I gathered from the reviews were people who really know the region, and it's food love Szechuan Garden, as do most people. I saw the negative reviews, but they seemed to me for the most part to be on the whiny side, and not well informed on Szechuan cuisine. The one concern I had was some of the negative reviews mentioned the food being too salty, and I am pretty sensitive and picky when it comes to overly salted food. I decided I had faith in the good reviews and made a huge order for Christmas Eve. And Szechuan Garden did not disappoint. The kids, my husband and I enjoyed everything. The dumplings were everyone's favorite, as well as the General Tso's, Broccoli Beef, Dried Cooked String Beans. The pot stickers, which I'm not a pot stocker fan to start with and did not try looked to me to be fine, but not as unique or tasty as the other dishes, although they were all eaten with pleasure by the rest of my family. I ordered for myself the Hot Spicy Dried Pot with Tofu. The tofu was well prepared, but I don't think it did the dish the service that having a meat or seafood that can better absorb the flavors could. I found none of the dishes anywhere near too salty. Everything was very well seasoned, and great fresh flavors. A fan of the simple elevated when it comes to food and drinks, my favorite dish was the Dried Cooked String beans, which were flash fried with tons of garlic yet flavor goodness on the outside while still crisp retaining their freshness on the inside. The beans weren't too spicy from the accompanying chili peppers for my mild loving family, and were a great addition for me... spicy is my favorite."
