Fred's Szechuan
Fred's Szechuan serves classic Chinese dishes with a focus on fresh vegetables and some wheat gluten options—vegetarian pot stickers and dishes with tofu are noted favorites. The venue is casual with wheelchair accessibility and offers delivery and takeout; reviews praise fresh, flavorful food though some recent criticism points to inconsistent spice levels and occasional stale rice. The bar next door adds an element for those interested in drinks with meals, and the place tends to attract lunch and dinner crowds.
