Locals are raving about a new Chinese restaurant, Szechuan Garden, located on Contra Costa Boulevard near Rotten Robbie in Concord, California. The restaurant has quickly gained a following among locals for its authentic and flavorful Szechuan cuisine.

Opened recently, Szechuan Garden has already earned high praise for its lineup of dishes that differ from traditional Americanized Chinese food, and for exceptional service. Residents have been particularly impressed with the quality and authenticity of the dishes, making it a popular spot for those looking to enjoy a true taste of Szechuan cuisine without having to travel to China.

One enthusiastic customer, Peter N, shared his experience in a community group, describing the restaurant as “fantastic” and praising both the food and the service.

He highlighted the use of authentic Szechuan peppercorns, known for their unique numbing sensation, cautioning that while he enjoys the distinct taste, it might be an acquired taste for some.

The restaurant’s menu features a range of traditional Szechuan dishes, including Szechuan Style Chicken, Spicy Beef Combo, and Spicy Pork Kidney, with prices averaging around $15 per dish. The Hot & Sour Tofu Soup, priced at $9.95, offers a comforting option for those seeking a warm, hearty meal.

Paula F, another local, expressed her eagerness to try the restaurant, encouraged by the positive reviews from her neighbors.

Szechuan Garden’s exterior is welcoming and casual, with a traditional and non-descript style that complements its authentic culinary offerings.
