Enchanted Szechuan - Norwalk

I give Enchanted Szechuan a solid 5-star rating. This restaurant offers the best authentic Chinese cuisine for miles around. In my opinion, it is the top Szechuan restaurant west of Beijing. I am a frequent diner of Chinese cuisine and have visited for both lunch and dinner over the past 2 years, consistently enjoying top-notch authentic dishes. Each ingredient is carefully selected and the dishes are cooked with a fresh home-cooked taste. The addition of waitstaff has improved the service, with head waiter Luke providing excellent service. Although most of the waitstaff do not speak English, they are able to understand and accommodate your requests, adding to the charm of the restaurant. The chef excels in creating traditional Szechuan dishes, offering a perfect level of spiciness. They are also willing to adjust the heat level to suit your preference.

Ty was our server and he was very knowledgeable about the dishes. The dishes were spicy enough to be tasty but not overwhelming. The spicy boiled fillet fish dish was really tasty and had a good kick to the spice, while the vegetables were edible (unlike most other places that make this dish way too spicy). The dry pepper fried chicken, with small crispy and non-oily pieces, had a flavorful crunch and was not overly spicy. We also ordered the mapo tofu, usually made with minced pork, but Ty informed us that it did not contain pork and asked if we wanted it added. He was very considerate and ensured the dish met our preferences. Note: We requested a "traditional" spice level (aka very spicy) for all our dishes. Fun fact: Ask Ty to share a fun fact about the wall mural, mostly covered with brick wallpaper.

This restaurant is truly exceptional. I typically request my Chinese dishes to be extremely spicy, but have been let down in the past. However, Enchanted Szechuan never fails to impress. They are able to customize the level of heat to your liking, and regardless of the spiciness, the food remains consistently delicious.

I personally feel that they 're keeping the food authentic (hope I 'm not wrong). Don 't go overboard with choosing their extra spicey option. It can hit you hard. Being Indian, my tolerance for spice is on the higher side and for me their "traditional "level of spice is perfect.

Some of the best Chinese food ever, being from the Chicago area. Give this place a try once and you will leave begging to eat every meal here; it's that good! Had dinner, dine-in, at this table last year and had a fantastic evening with my family.Waitstaff is exceptional and remembers their customers! I will be a repeat guest every trip to Norwalk!
