Give this place a try if you’re in the mood for some authentic Szechuan food. We went pre-Covid and was happy with our meal. The flavors were true to classic Szechuan styles. We came specifically for the Chongqing grilled fish that’s a signature dish here and a more elusive item only offered by certain places. It was good but didn’t seem grilled as much as baked and placed in the broth. The pig kidney was fine but not amazing nor something I’d order again.

I found a worm in their fish dish. It's poking out of the fish neck meat. Just look at the picture yourself. It's obviously different from fish meat texture. Don't tell me that's fish brain, blood vessel, or organ. What kind of fish has a giant vessel or organ inside meat like this??? I'll never order again. They are obviously very cheap and don't care about food quality.

I ordered food here, got it delivered. One of the container has lipstick mark on it. that just gross. so that means they reuses their takeout container and failed to hide it. Then i called the restaurant, lady told me they don't have any female back there and she said she doesn't wear lipstick, then tell me she is busy and can not help me at this time. After that, i called them back again, they said it is not from lipstick, it from their chili sauce...... what?!?! come on, what kind of red chili pepper sauce is this color and texture. you can see the color and texture from the picture. After i whipped it down with a napkin it clearly shows it's from a lipstick. Never will go back there again, it's just gross me out when you think about it, specially during this pandemic time. Reuses takeout container just wrong. They try to cut cost by saving money from container?!?! ignore customers health is just wrong, how is this place hasn't shut down by the health department yet.

FOOD POISON WARNING: Worst diarrhea my family and a friend had after having dinner at this place. From 2 a.m to 7 a.m., none of us could sleep because we had to constantly go to the bathroom. My 18-month-old son also had more diarrhea-like poop and cried all night after eating the cold sesame noodles. My wife even had extreme colic lasted for half an hour. Infuriating how poisonous the food they could make there! We never had a problem like this after trying so many restaurants over the years. Looking at the old reviews seems like other people also suffered from stomachache and vomiting after eating in this place. It is also ashamed when you invited a friend to a so-called \good restaurant\ but ended up causing them severe diarrhea. We are shocked because on Yelp this restaurant highlights \healthy dining\. We came here mostly because I mistakenly believed the false advertising \Best Szechuan Food\ they put on the website. After reading more reviews, I found that the owner of the Zest Szechuan invited a lot of Yelp Elite reviewers in an event to make them look like a \4-star\ restaurant. (and Yes, it fooled me! I surrender to your marketing strategies) so BE AWARE! You would NOT have a 4-star experience at this place. You don't want to be the next one to be filled up with filthy ingredients and suffer from hours of torture.

We had this typhoon pond style crabs and it was good, and a lot! We also got a free Szechuan cold noodles, pretty good also. Another dish we had which is spicy beef and tofu is soso. In all, the taste and quality is fair for the price.
