La Jolla’s already vibrant restaurant scene just got a lot brighter with the Chinese restaurant chain Chin’s Szechwan coming to La Jolla. 

Chin’s Szechwan could not have chosen a better location than La Jolla to open its seventh restaurant in San Diego County–yes, their seventh!! The restaurant opened in Hawaii in 1976, and its first San Diego location in 1984 was in Carlsbad Village. Ever since then, they haven’t been shy in their expansion efforts, and with as many locations as they have, not to mention the long list of accolades they’ve received over the years, it’s clear they have the food to back it all up.

They have an extensive menu, so clear some room in the fridge for the leftovers you’ll enjoy the next day. Some popular and classic dishes include the Lo Mein Soft Wok-tossed Noodles with onions, bean sprouts, mixed vegetables, and a choice of meat and Kung Pao with your choice of meat, mushrooms, squash, and peanuts in a kung pao sauce. 

The vibes and decor at Chin’s other locations are said to be classy, with elegant and classic oriental accents, art, fabrics, and light fixtures, so we’re excited to see how they transform the new digs.
