Sichuan Gourmet — Restaurant in Framingham

The managers are mean liars. If I can give this restaurant 0 star I will give it. I have never see the waiting line being managed poorly like this. I fell so angry because I was humiliated by them in front of my family and friend. I knew tonight would be busy so I called to make ourselves in line. (6:40 pm) They first lie to me that they will have a table for me in 40 mins (7:20 pm). When I bring the whole family (3 adults and 2 3-year-old) arriving at 7:00 pm, I confirm with the male manager for the table. And he checked my last name and stated that my table will be opened in 30 mins (7: 30 pm). After 10 mins waiting, I found that people in line are holding number stickers. When I asked, a female manage throw to me" we don't take telephone reserve, you have to start over. Here is your number." (7:10 pm). I argued of course. The male manager came out and said he found my spot in line and there were 5 groups of people ahead of us. After 6 groups of people got their seats, I went to the managers again (7:45 pm). The female showed me the piece of paper as waiting list. There are still 8 groups of people ahead of us!!! They not just made me wait, but also let people cutting lines! And she, with a smile, said to me" i told you we don't take telephone reserve. When business is good and we are busy, this is normal."

They on purpose lie to make me wait for 1 hour. If they told me there were 14 groups ahead of us, I would have gone to the other restaurant and congrat them for being busy. To keep my business, they make me, my wife, my best friend, my two 3-year-old starving and standing in the chaos crowd. They might thought after 1 hour of waiting, we will just stay even been treated like that. But we left and will not step in this restaurant forever. I feel regret that I have been giving business to them several times and always...

We have been coming to this restaurant for at least 10 years now, and every single time, the food has been amazing and consistent. I know of people who have packed this food and taken it to Texas. No joke.

Amazing food, great service, and reasonable prices. Now I remember back in the days we use to come here for lunch specials and the prices were really cheap. Although over the years the prices have gone up, the great quality and quantity of food has remained the same.

We truly believe this is one of the if not the best Chinese Sichuan  Restaurants in Massachusetts.

When we try another Chinese restaurant, we are disappointed because this place sets the expectations for restaurants 0VER THE TOP.

Over the years I have realized that different people get used to different dishes and stick to it. We always get the same dishes (in the pictures) and I believe that everything here is amazing and everyone should make a stop.

The goods may be too spicy for some,  After 10 years of eating here every week I would recommend:

Chicken Napa cabbage: Order this dish for take away or eat it there with Rice. Vegetarian can replace Chicken with Tofu.

Dry Chicken with Chili Oil : Order this dish if you are only sitting there and eating it. This dish is state of art. Goes great with beer as nibbles to eat.

Shredded Chicken and Gongua dry fish fillets - Great dishes which go well with fried rice.

Chengdu Lamb: Best Lamb ever. You will not find a similar lamb anywhere and The place will not disappoint. The texture is so soft that it melts in your mouth.

Make sure you eat there and eat. Take-aways are fine as well but the quantities are less and they just don't...
