Master Critic Review

Hu’s Szechwan Restaurant 7.6
Palms
A long-running neighborhood Szechwan spot that leans into bold chile heat, numbing peppercorns, and comfort-classic stir fries. The dining room is low-key, but the kitchen’s best dishes carry real depth and crave-factor.
Must-Try Dishes: Spicy wontons in chili oil, Chengdu-style dry-fried chicken, Mapo tofu
Scores:
