King Szechuan Palace Intro

King Szechuan Palace is a Chinese restaurant located at 83 Reservoir Ave, Jersey City, NJ 07307. You can contact them at (201) 222-6888 or +1 201-222-6888.

Customer reviews indicate a significant difference between dining-in and takeout experiences. Many customers recommend dining-in, particularly for Szechuan and house specialty dishes, as they believe the food is best served hot on a plate and does not hold up well in takeout containers.

Specific recommendations for dining-in include the H22 boiled fresh fish filet and the H4 bean curd fish filet. The dumplings are also mentioned as a good choice.

However, takeout experiences have been largely negative. Complaints include poor food quality, such as dry and tasteless sesame chicken, undercooked onions in fried rice, and hot and sour soup described as old, burnt, and overly vinegary with minimal ingredients. Customers have also expressed dissatisfaction with portion sizes.

The restaurant is described by some as "Best Szechuan in town!" but this seems to apply only to the dine in experience. Therefore, it is strongly advised to dine in to fully appreciate the quality of the food. If takeout is the only option, consider managing expectations.

Ordered vegetarian sesame chicken and hot and sour soup. Soup had two pieces of mushroom and not much else in it. Container wasn't full. Tasted old and burnt and like it was only vinegar. Onions in fried rice were not cooked. Sesame chicken was dry, overcooked, and tasteless. Fried rice also dry with no flavor. I had dinner here, maybe they're decent for lunch or dine in. I recently moved in down the street and was excited to have a Chinese spot right here, but I'll just skip it from now on. Waste of money.

Best Szechuan in town! I recommend Dining-in for the Szechuan/House Specialties dishes. They must be served hot on a plate, take-out containers don't do it justice!! I personally recommend the H22 boiled fresh fish filet, or the H4 bean curd fish filet. Their dumplings are great as well!

Great Chinese food! It's not an Americanized Chinese restaurant, they have legit Szechuan dishes and everything is well seasoned. Highly recommend. Takeout only FYI.

King szechuan is like that psychotic ex who you know is bad, but has you so hooked that you just can't move on.. you roll the dice each time each time you order from here, but when things align.. boy is it amazing.. Would definitely recommend the chong qing chicken,the bok choi and the hot and sour soup.
