Sichuan Restaurant is a time-honored brand located in the bustling area of Taiping South Road in the city center. Although it is a Sichuan restaurant, it has made many improvements based on the taste of locals, and the spiciness is within an acceptable range. Ctrip has group purchases, which are still very cost-effective. Business is very good, and you have to wait for the table to be turned over later. The service is still the style of a state-owned restaurant.
Sichuan Restaurant is a time-honored Sichuan restaurant in Nanjing. In addition to Sichuan cuisine, their cakes are also very delicious. There is a queue every day. If you are late, you can't buy them. The water chestnut cake is soft, sweet and fragrant, and the pine nut rice cake is long and chewy. You can tell that the rice cakes are made of pure rice!
Taiping South Road is undergoing renovations, and Sichuan Restaurant has also been renovated. The new location is much more modern, spacious, and bright, unlike the old, greasy, state-owned restaurant. You pay at the cashier, receive a ticket and a number, and wait at your seat for your order to be brought to you. Your tableware, tea, and condiments are all self-service. The steamed dumplings are 8 yuan for four, and the wait time is about 10 minutes. The wrapper is thin and has a good texture, though the seams are a little under-steamed. The meat filling is chewy and flavorful, with a good flavor and plenty of broth. It feels like an improvement compared to before the renovation. I think I'll try their other dishes in the future. I hope these time-honored restaurants can maintain their consistent standards and become century-old establishments.
Sichuan Restaurant is very famous in Nanjing. They serve famous Chinese snacks like fish-flavored spring rolls and shredded radish dumplings. It's always packed from the moment it opens. Their duck blood and vermicelli soup, mini wontons, crab roe soup dumplings, fresh meat soup dumplings, dried shredded pork, and braised dried meat are all very authentic and affordable. They also offer takeout, and their green rice dumplings are delicious. It's definitely worth a visit.
A long-standing Nanjing restaurant, Sichuan Restaurant used to be a prestigious affair, but now it's very down-to-earth. The snack bar on the first floor is no longer greasy, and you can sit and wait for your meal by inserting a card, which is very heartwarming. The small wontons are 9 yuan, with thin skin and generous fillings, much better than the 5 yuan ones on the street. The rice cake takeout is the most popular, and there's always a small line to get a taste of it. The rice cakes and glutinous rice balls are very sticky and filling, and the meat-shaped glutinous rice balls are a unique creation of this time-honored restaurant.
How long has it been since you've had Sichuan Restaurant? I remember when I was little, Sichuan Restaurant was a status symbol; being able to dine there was incredibly prestigious. Purely for nostalgia, I ordered two dishes: Kung Pao Chicken, which I hardly order nowadays, but it was truly the best Kung Pao Chicken I've ever had. The vegetarian chicken pot was incredibly tender and delicious!

After the renovation, the restaurant has been renovated: a casual dining area on the first floor, a la carte/braised food and pastry takeout, and a food market; private rooms and a multi-purpose hall on the second and third floors. Signature Xiaolongbao: 4 dumplings per basket, 12 yuan. The broth is as rich and full as ever, and the meat filling is fresh and fragrant, without being greasy. Crab Roe Xiaolongbao: 3 dumplings per basket, 18 yuan. The broth is quite fresh, with occasional hints of crab meat and roe in the filling. The crab roe flavor is not overpowering, and the skin is thin and the filling is generous. Service: Orders are placed by card, and the dumplings are delivered to your seat. Sterilized tableware and self-service tea are provided.
