"This restaurant is a great choice if you're in the mood for some spicy Chinese cuisine. While the ambiance leaves something to be desired, the food makes up for it. Though the paper plates seem a bit economical, the flavors are outstanding. I particularly enjoyed the spicy boiled fish, deep-fried intestines with chili, and chicken gizzards. Their appetizer bar is fantastic—you can choose three cold cuts to start your meal. Most dishes come with a generous amount of Szechuan pepper, so be ready for some delightful numbness. The food is authentically prepared, and the portions are massive. We usually come here for lunch and find we have more than enough for another meal later."

If you want authentic Sichuan food, this place is awesome. If you want Americanized Chinese food, this isn't your place. Their mala spices are the best.

Absolutely fantastic. I'm not Chinese so I can't tell you how authentic it is, but I did see Chinese customers while I was in there. Even if it's not authentic it's excellent. Highly recommend!

Oh no! Sichuan City has closed down! Now there's a ramen shop in its place... *sigh*. Where are we supposed to get genuine spicy Sichuan food now? Spicy City seems to be the only option left in town... View menu

We were shopping at H-mart decided to stop in for a bite. I was pleasantly surprised by this little restaurant. The atmosphere was quiet and calming. We were the only people dining in so our service was pretty fast. Our food came out steamy and delicious. Definitely recommend trying Sichuan City.

I feel like this place has gotten a lot of poor reviews because the food was too spicy . Yes, the food is spicy. the resteraunt 's name is Sichuan City, and that region is known for mouth numbing spice. This being said, if you like authentic and spicy Chinese food you should give this place a try! We tried the beef noodles and mapo tofu, and both were really flavorful. definitely will come back!

We ordered seafood noodle soup, assorted fried rice and fish fillet with garlic sauce. All tasted good with the right amount of saltiness. Vegetables in the soup were not overcooked. A little too much noodles for me though. The garlic cloves in the fish fillet sauce weren't strong and actually sweet. Really tasty. The assorted fried rice was enough to fill you up. Their servings are good for 4 people. View menu

This is a hole in the wall place for authentic Chinese cuisine. I would definitely recommend the cumin lamb if you want salty and spicy. I would recommend the twice cooked pork in Beijing sauce if u want sweet and savory. The mapo tofu of u want mouth numbing spice. The garlic eggplant which is greasy sweet tangy but delicious. I do feel it is a hit and miss sometimes but I still love the flavors and this is one of my favorite places here is San Diego

This is a cozy, low-key spot perfect for satisfying your Chinese food cravings. With a extensive menu, you're likely to find exactly what you're in the mood for. The restaurant tends to be fairly quiet in the evenings and seems to have a lot of takeout orders. The food was delicious! The soup dumplings were a highlight, and the chicken with peppers was tasty as well. For dessert, we enjoyed sweet rice soup, which brought back fond memories from my childhood!

"Soichi is not our first Omakase experience, but it is the first one in San Diego that we have had. And what an amazing experience it was!Getting a reservation is key, especially if you want the bar. Our server was Marlon, and we told him we had just moved to SD and were celebrating our engagement anniversary. He was SO friendly and a willing conversationalist; we talked about everything from Ratatouille to the skeletal systems of the fish he was preparing. Not only that but Soichi himself also conversed with us and served us a little bit of sake. What a personality! Great presence, but humble and easy to talk to. The staff was amazing at welcoming us, taking care of us, and making sure we were enjoying our meal at every step.But if the staff was anything to appreciate, the food was even more spectacular. My husband and I have been together since college, so we’ve eaten Omakase in the Bay Area and Japan, but Soichi served us one of the best Omakase experiences on the West Coast. Our favorites were their black throated sea perch, amberjack, scallop, shrimp and fried shrimp head! , salmon, trigger fish, and golden eye red snapper; the snapper is so renowned that they sell a t-shirt of it, which we bought because we enjoyed it so much. All of the ingredients were presented beautifully — check the photos of you don’t believe me. But in addition to that, the fish was very fresh and prepared thoughtfully. The Omakase menu lets you really appreciated everything the seas of Japan have to offer.We paid for the $150 full experience, but added on two flights of sake $28 each flight for 3 different sakes and 4 additional nigiris each. It was a full meal! But we were so pleased with the service and care and quality of food that we ended up hanging around until we were the last customers in the restaurant. Soichi, this was our first visit but not our last.Big thanks to Lorena, Marlon, and Soichi himself for making tonight as special as it was. Our engagement anniversary could not have been better spent. Hoping to come back soon!"
