Sichuan Palace — Restaurant in Chelmsford

Pork Ribs with Potato (14.95). The owner took my order, and I ordered it extra spicy anyway. She knew that I complained about a three pepper dish that was just about one pepper, so this time it was EXTRA EXTRA spicy! It was a severe case of a runny nose spicy. I wasn't going to order any rice since it already had potatoes included, but It was soo spicy that I had to order a small bowl of white rice. It also helped to soak up the delicious sauce. I again had high hopes for this dish and wasn't disappointed with the tasty and tender pork that fell off the bone. Be aware that there might be bone splinters in the food, but this is kind of expected with anything on the bone. The potatoes were cooked perfectly.

Next is the Garlic Pork Rib ($14.95). "Fried pork rib with garlic, red & green pepper, onion, and scallion." No scallions and they were sitting on a mound of lettuce. They were garlicky, alright! They were also super crispy, but the ratio of meat to bone was overwhelmingly in favor of the bone. I chewed the meat off all of them and could have had a dozen more, and I'm a light eater

Following this is the Chicken with Pickled Mustard Greens (13.50). "Stir-fried with pickled mustard greens and cilantro in white sauce." No cilantro. The veggies were cooked well, tender but still firm. The dark meat chicken was juicy and tender. The mustard greens were mild and could have been pickled longer. It was an agreeable dish but a bit too bland for me. I asked for some chili oil and was really glad that I did. The chili oil was delightful, not super spicy but very aromatic. I might ask for it regardless of what I order.

Light lunch today. Pork Belly with Chili and Garlic sauce ($9.45 with 10% off) at @sichuan.palace. "Served in chili oil and soy sauce with fresh garlic and scallion". The scallions had been replaced with julienned cucumbers. Excellent sauce, and they didn't hold back on the garlic. The pork was tender and tasty, but I would have liked it to be sliced thicker, so it had...

In Brief: Very tasty, hits the spot when I'm craving authentic food!

In Long: I've been 2 times now, and also ordered delivery via ubereats once on thanksgiving. Haven't been disappointed yet.

Food is fast, hot, and flavorful.

I like how the dishes are served in a 'shareable' style. When you order a dish, that thing is big, and I hope you come with some friends and enjoy the feeling of eating together (or fighting over tasty food together!) Don't forget to order rice (that big plate was just 4 bucks!), because no meal is complete without it. I also recommend asking for hot tea. I'm pretty sure they serve you Jasmine tea when you ask for tea, which is really nice to wash down any spicyness or greasiness throughout the meal.

Whenever I end up in the area, I try to stop by so one day I can say I've tried every dish. So far I've tried and enjoyed: salt and pepper spare ribs, double cooked pork, jumbo shrimp, cumin lamb(you gotta try this at least once), tangerine crispy beef, and I enjoyed some duck dishes on thanksgiving. We usually can't finish everything and they pack it up for you very neatly. Next time I might order extra rice just to take home lol.

Hopefully i can add on to this giant word wall as I go more often. I recommend taking a chance and stopping by with friends if you're willing to try...

The dishes taste good except one person had diarrhea 30 minutes after eating, another person vomited in the midnight. The younger tall lady was really nice. The attitude of the oldest lady(being called older sister) was horrible. I came this place the first time tonight, I came around 8:45pm and ordered 5 dishes, I was not told anything that I have to finish dinner 20 minutes before the closing hour 9:30pm. Around 9:10pm, the oldest lady asked me to check out as they are closing. despite I was still eating, I did understand they may need prepare closing, so I paid the bill, I gave $15.22 tip for a $67.78 bill which is over 22%. but right after paying bill, the oldest lady came to my table and took our bowl and chopsticks away while I was still eating, so rude!!!! , i had to quickly pack my dishes and leave before she took my dishes away, despite the younger lady told her not to do so. If I were coming to this place again, i would check if the oldest lady is there. I will not suggest this restaurant as long as the oldest lady is...
