" First time at Sichuan Pavilion, and it won’t be my last! Their shredded chicken in garlic sauce blew my mind. So much flavor, and I loved the balance of heat. The staff was super friendly and the environment felt very authentic. I’m excited to try more from their menu next time I’m in DC! " (*Curated Review*)

" While the food was good, I feel like it was slightly too Americanized for my taste. The kung pao was still pretty tasty and the chicken was tender, but I was hoping for more authentic flavors. Service was friendly, but hectic. I think I might return for a different dish next time to explore more of their offerings. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had my first visit last week and I was pleasantly surprised by the vibrant flavors. The staff was courteous and provided recommendations. I ordered the hot pot, which was authentic and delightful. My only suggestion for improvement would be to ensure they offer more vegetarian options, as they seemed to have limited choices there. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had mixed feelings about my evening here. The food was tasty but lacked a bit of authenticity compared to what I've tried back home. Service was attentive, yet some servers seemed to be in a rush. It was pretty busy, making it a bit overwhelming. I might return, but perhaps during a quieter time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Sichuan Pavilion feels just like a piece of China in DC! The dumplings tasted fresh and authentic. I really appreciated the recommendation for their spicier dishes—they really are the heart of Chinese cuisine. However, be cautious of the service, as it seemed a bit overwhelmed on a busy night. Will be returning for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" I used to love visiting Sichuan Pavilion, but it seems like it’s gone downhill lately. I ordered the kung pao chicken, which was just mediocre at best. I did appreciate that they used real chicken breast though, but it just felt like something was missing in terms of flavor. The service was alright, but I was a bit miffed over the tipping policy they’ve adopted lately. Might reconsider returning after this visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" Sichuan Pavilion has become my favorite dining spot in DC! Their spicy beef noodles are an explosion of flavors and the perfect level of heat. I've been trying all their offerings and they never disappoint. Service is typically fast and friendly, and I always leave feeling full and satisfied! Can't wait to bring my friends here!
