BOS' SiChuan Taste一碟川菜馆

Casual modern Sichuan fare with underrated hits. Stopped by a couple times for quick lunches, and while they’re not as busy as it once was (especially with Mountain House around the corner), the food here still beats most Sichuan spots I’ve been in the city. Clean space, solid service, and no misses. My favorites so far were the Braised pork elbow and the Beef brisket noodles. The pork elbow was like a warm, heartier version of the garlic pork appetizer—slightly fattier, but the chili flakes on the side added a sweet-spicy kick that balanced it perfectly. As for the noodles, the shoyu-style broth was light yet savory, with tender brisket and perfectly al dente noodles. Simple, comforting, and well-executed. I also tried two lunch specials, both decent but with minor quirks. The potato grilled pork ribs donburi had well-seasoned ribs paired with braised vegetables—flavorful, though the bone cuts were a bit awkward (watch out for sharp edges). The "halibut rice" was misleading—no fish, just braised pork belly in a soy-BBQ sauce. Still tasty over rice. The prices here aren’t exactly budget-friendly, but I would occasionally come back for that braised pork elbow.

The service is really good. They had option of hot sweetened soy milk as complimentary drinks, which goes well with the spicy dishes. The sweet duck was crispy on the skin, the lotus roots and celtuce are fresh and delicious. Would recommend reserve in advance, as it gets quite busy during the weekend.

This is my husband’s favorite Sichuan restaurant in the Allston area, and we tried some new dishes this time. The garlic pork slices were impressive, with a slightly chewy texture and a flavorful, rich chili sauce. However, the boiled fish was a bit disappointing—the fish seemed to be frozen, affecting the texture and taste, despite the thoughtful seasoning. Special mention goes to the excellent service. The waitress patiently helped us move to a warmer table and kept refilling our water and soy milk. Overall, the experience was a mix of good flavors and warm hospitality.

Foood tasted decent but portion sizes are very very misleading. Do not trust their BOGO offering on uber eats. It’s false advertising. Each portion is just 1/2 portion. So it’s not really bogo. We were able to fit BOTH portions into one container and still close the lid

Most authentic Sichuan food in Boston! BBQ fish highly recommended! The spicy level is high, order low spicy if you’re new to Sichuan food.
