We consistently get good quality dishes and fast delivery from Lao Sze Chuan. The egg rolls were still hot, extremely crisp, plump with veggies and good tasting. The orange chicken was a slightly spicy and prettily garnished with orange slices and strips of orange peel (there was a rogue piece of broccoli hidden there and actually I would have liked more). Green beans were garlicky and crisp/tender. The only thing that missed the target was the cold noodles garnished with strips of cucumber and tossed in a cold sour sauce. What I would have liked is cold sesame noodles with sesame seeds and green onions. Whether that was the fault of the family member who ordered this or the chef who executed this, who is to say? I still would like some sesame noodles. Still, pretty good dishes with fast delivery? That's always a hit with me!

One of my favorite Chinese food spots in the area. Love the chicken egg rolls. The fried rice and orange chicken. The lamb is awesome as well. Cozy busy spot in downtown highland park and a local favorite. Lots of parking in the area. The service has been fast and friendly every time I've been there.

Ordered delivery from Lao Sze Chuan this weekend and it hit the spot. The food was delivered relatively quickly and met our spice preferences.For appetizers we got the Spring Rolls and Crab Rangoon. Both of which were very crispy and tasty.For mains, we got the Dry Chili Chicken, fried rice, and spicy chow mein noodles. The Chicken was flavorful and crispy, the fried rice was super tasty, the noodles were very tasty, but a bit dry. I believe they were fried so that might be why.I ordered online and was only able to order veggie fried rice but was hoping to have chicken. Overall, it was quite good and I would definitely order from here again.

We didn't go in with much expectations but came out pretty happy with our experience. Not loud and packed like other asian restaurant, food was overall decent.Out of everything we had, the pickled veggies with fish, the pig blood dish, the beggar chicken and mala lamb (or was it beef? We will never know) were the highlights! My favorite was the salted egg paste with eggplants! Skip the beef noodles soup, soup dumplings, and pot stickers !The lycheetini was good but on the very weak side! Lol! But for $10, I could do a couple :p

Best Chinese in town. Authentic delicious always great quality. Try the cumin beef or the cashew chicken and the kimchi fried rice is a must. If you are sensitive to spice get no spice. Medium has a kick.

Appealing room and expansive bar. Unfortunately no liquor license. Why? Various inscrutable reasons. So if a beer or cocktail is what you want with your meal, you'll just be teased by the attractive bar display.Based on the business activity it would appear they are more equipped for carry out and dining in is an afterthought. Our table of 4 was the only dine-in action for the hour we were there.

Soup dumplings were nothing special. Add that 20-25 minute wait time during their dinner rush and it was the absolute worst choice that I could have made for a hungry table! They came out with the other food.Everything was a slight variation. Crispy Shrimp w/Lemon Sauce was soaked with that creamy mayo-based sauce served with two pieces of broccoli. The Honey Garlic Pepper Beef Tenderloin was sliced surprisingly thin over a bed of sliced onions. One was the other way around -- bed of broccoli for a cream sauce and a garnish of sliced onions!The beef curry noodle was my favorite dish of all.

Hearty portions, delicious flavors and a huge selection of entree choices. Lao Sze Chuan consistently serves fresh, Asian cuisine and never disappoints. The sweet and spicy flavors in the szechuan filet of sole was one of the best I've ever tasted!Great service as well and open everyday from 11a-9p and 11a-10p on weekends!

Went there early of June 2024, very nice location and decoration, however, the food was not good, too salty!! I knew it is not genuine Chinese food, but they were off too far! I won't visit again.
