Yelp users are generally positive about Sichuan Impression, which currently holds four stars out of 176 reviews on the site.

Eric C. noted, "Hands down the best authentic Sichuan Chinese restaurant in West LA! So many incredible, spicy dishes to choose from, and non-spicy fare for those who want something with less of a kick. This place is really quite popular and there can be a long wait (hour plus) during prime time."

Yelper Andrew W. wrote, "Great food and service. The toothpick mutton lamb is a must-have. The mapo tofu has a lot of flavor. The rice is run-of-the-mill and costs $1/individual bowl. They do not offer brown rice at the time of this writing."
