Xun Yu Si Kao

As a person that does not enjoy spicy dishes and fish, I must say that this restaurant did a very good job changing my mind. The variety of flavors are all unique and each one tastes amazing! The fish options are a little tricky though. In my opinion, it is important to ask the staff for their opinions on the fish because not everyone has the same preferences! The tdlapia is definitely my favorite in terms of volume, flavor and texture. Their garlic sauce is amazing for non spice enjoyers and their chopped peppers if you are feeling adventurous. The pricing is decent for the taste of the food. The service could be better but 9-10/10 experience overall!

By far, out of all the food we tried in Philly, this was one of my favorites! We got string beans, sour chicken, and pickled cabbage with sliced fish. Ordered rice to pair as well. You must order rice! I'm actually drooling writing this review and thinking about the food. Everything was so extremely flavorful. Welcome to flavortown, baby!! The sauce for the sour chicken was so good. I need a vat of that to bring home. Please sell it!!! We had enough leftovers that my friend was able to bring it home as well!

Anyone who doesn’t like the taste of this place simply just hates flavor. I’m actually born and raised in Sichuan. Been coming here for years. Had to leave a review today because my friend said it’s only 4.2. Ridiculous. I’ve tried every single Sichuan spot in Philly and Xun Yu is by far the best one (Emei not bad but not spicy enough) Flavor is on point, spicy is on point, price a bit steep but I still pay for it everytime. If you a real Sichuan brotha just come here no need to think twice.

This place has some amazingly delicious food. We started off with the sliced beef cold cuts for appetizer and some stir fried string beans for our entree. We also ordered the fish where you add additional toppings at additional cost per toppings. It range from $3.99 to $5.99 per toppings. We always get the garlic sauce with a little spicy. The fish dish can run a bit high if you add a lot of topping but it’s definitely worth the price. The food comes out quickly and the service is decent. I recommend this place for any seafood lovers. And definitely order the stir fried string beans.

I specifically go here for their spicy pots! It’s spicy, it’s sizziling, it’s deliciousness. Do note that they will come in “sharing size” aka BIG! They gave us some side dishes while we wait for our food, and some jelly tea dessert to cool down our tongue after the burning from the spicy pot. Their service is also prompt and friendly!

Servers were helpful with questions about the menu. Food was all tasty and only medium spice and mala - I was hoping for a little more. Very nice clean restaurant and approachable for someone who has not had Sichuan style Chinese food. I had the crispy pork with long hot peppers add chili oil and the cold noodles with chili oil and would recommend both, good portion sizes
