Szechwan Restaurant in Manhattan Beach Lousy!
926 N Sepulveda Blvd
Manhattan Beach, CA 90266
We’ve eaten here before and the dine-in service was so-so; the food quality is on the greasy side and the predominant flavor seems to be “doused with soy sauce”.
This evening we paid over $20 for 2 dinner entrees (take out) that didn’t even come with rice. The lady at the bar who gave me the takeout order was rude when I asked what I thought was a normal takeout inquiry: if the entrees came with rice. I can deal with the crappy service if the food was good – but the beef and broccoli was incredibly greasy and bad even for “white Chinese takeout”!
We will never eat here again and will advise everyone we know against visiting this place. Based on this restaurant’s spotty record with both takeout and dine-in customers, our experience wasn’t a fluke or bad luck. This is the first time I’m writing a “restaurant is lousy” review on this blog because my experience was bad enough to warrant writing up about it.
