I think their food tastes great and is quite authentic to Sichuan style, served in large bowls. You can also request extra rice at no additional charge. The cold chicken dish has been especially good so far.

The restaurant offers plenty of indoor seating, including large tables for big groups. During peak hours it can get very busy, and the wait can be long. However, most of the time they have some seating available—though on Friday nights and holidays, it’s best to check ahead before you go.

We gave the place a try despite having heard mix review about this place. Unfortunately the visit is underwhelming to say the least. The portion were way too small and the price doesn’t justify the portion. If the food is good then this isn’t an issue. However the food doesn’t taste good at all. Beef taste chewy and the vegetables were way over cooked. If you are hungry for some Chengdu cuisine I would not recommend this place.

Chengdu Gourmet is the best Chinese food we’ve ever had in Pittsburgh! The ladies who waited on us were all really nice, and the chef was amazing! We will definitely be back soon.

This place was 10/10 best Chinese food me and hubby have EVER had!
I got the baby bok Choi with black mushrooms and their cold noodle soup. They made everything not spicy for me which l appreciate so much!!
The food was ready in 5 minutes or less and it was just beyond perfection.
Staff were so friendly and attentive making the experience even better.
This place felt like a hidden gem in the city. It wasn’t particularly expensive. I feel we got what we paid for and beyond!
Hubby got the green cracked pepper chicken appetizer which came cold and the black bean paste and beef hot noodle soup.
Hubby said he never thought he’d like cold chicken, but that dish blew his mind. So so good you must go here!

Delicious Chinese Sichuan food! I love this place, it feels like I’m having meals at a family’s home. Ingredients are quality and their spices kick azz. Food can be hot in a delightful way. Service and ambient are chill and friendly. Some of my faves are cumin lamb, mapo tofu, sichuan pepper prawn, cold jelly & cukes w green sauce.

This place was unfortunately quite disappointing to me. It’s possible that I just don’t really have the palate for authentic Chinese food, but something about this spot just didn’t click with me. I got to try out their steamed dumplings, pumpkin pancakes, chicken egg roll, and mango milk tea.

The steamed dumplings were decent. Not great, not bad. Okay portion for price. The dough was pretty thin, meat was fine, but the sauce was more acidic than I’d usually like.

The egg roll was a bit strange. It had a pretty strong peanut butter-like taste to it. Seemed decently fresh and they did provide some sauces on the side for it. They had mustard and duck sauce, but strangely, no soy sauce for some reason.

The pumpkin pancakes came in a pretty small portion (3 little ones). They were pretty solid but not the most flavorful. A little crispy on the outside and a nice chewiness to them. I liked them but didn’t love them.

Finally, the milk tea was decent. The tea itself was quite tasty, milky, well made. But the boba they included on the bottom was definitely some of the worst pearls I’ve encountered in Pittsburgh. No chewiness left, just slimy and hard.

All in all, I probably won’t come back. I tried both this location and the one in the North Hills, and neither really hit the spot for me. Small portions and higher than average prices, but they do serve some unique dishes.

The food is excellent and authentic Chengdu if you order from the traditional menu. Must try!

I had a fantastic time at Chengdu Gourmet about a year prior to this review and made it a goal to go back on my recent trip to Pittsburgh. Once again, I had an incredible experience from the fantastic and speedy service to the wonderful meal. The atmosphere of the restaurant is great too, and it is spaced in a way that when it is busy, it feels close enough to be cozy but not too close to feel crowded. In this most recent trip, I had the Double Cooked Pork Belly, and my girlfriend had the Mapo Tofu. Double cooked pork is my favorite Sichuanese dish, and Chengdu Gourmet cooks it to perfection where to pork, peppers, and leaks melt in your mouth like butter. The Mapo Tofu was also very tasty and had a great texture, but next time, we would ask for a bit more spice. To reiterate, I had a fantastic time at Chengdu Gourmet and hope to make it again the next time I happen to be in Pittsburgh.

Spicy, Savory, and So Worth It!

Chengdu Gourmet delivers! The dumplings were perfection, but the spicy beef noodle soup? Pure fire—literally! My taste buds are still recovering, and I’d do it all over again.

Some of the best Chinese food I’ve ever had. I’m still thinking of the spicy beef noodle soup…

Great place to bring a group of people (especially if you have a vegan in the group and still want to be able to have variety)!

Whenever I’m back in Pittsburgh, I’ll be returning to Chengdu Gourmet.
