" Tasty Szechuan is hit or miss for me. The dry fried ribs are fantastic when they're fresh, but I’ve had a few orders that weren’t cooked well. The rice is okay, but really it’s just a filler compared to the ribs. The service can also be quite sporadic; sometimes you get friendly staff and other times they seem overwhelmed. Atmosphere-wise, it’s a no-frills kind of place, but I just love that hometown feel. " (*Curated Review*)

" I grew up eating Tasty Szechuan's dry fried ribs, and they never disappoint! I’ve been enjoying them since I was a kid, and I still make special trips back just for them. The spice level is always on point, and the meat is succulent. The atmosphere is casual and a bit worn out, but I’ll trade that for great food any day. The service can be slow at times, especially on weekends, so I recommend coming during off-peak hours if you can. " (*Curated Review*)

" I love this place! The moment I walk in, the aroma of the spices hits me, and it's just heavenly. The dry fried ribs are a must-try, perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor. The staff is friendly, and although the seating is limited, it has a cozy vibe. Plus, the portion sizes are generous for the price! I always leave satisfied. Highly recommend if you're craving authentic Szechuan food. " (*Curated Review*)

" I frequently visit Tasty Szechuan, mainly for their dry fried ribs. They are incredibly flavorful and full of meat. While the prices have gone up a bit, the portions are huge, so it's good value for money in my opinion. The service is often good, but other times they can be a bit distracted when busy. Despite the atmosphere being basic, the food makes me keep coming back. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Tasty Szechuan last week, and while the food was decent, I was disappointed by the service. The staff seemed overwhelmed and uninterested. The dry fried ribs were good, but I’ve had better elsewhere. The ambiance is nothing to write home about, making it more of a takeout spot than a dining experience. I wanted to love it, but I don’t think I’ll make a special trip back anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)
