Szechuan House is closing after five years in Timonium and more than three decades in Baltimore County. June 30th was the last day of service. Chinese food in the area ain't what used to be and soon, one of the GOATs will be gone forever. Unfortunately Mr. Robert's health is poor and the family has made the decision to close the doors, this time for good.
According to the Baltimore Business Journal, the Timonium location closed after five years in that shopping center and more than three decades overall in Baltimore County. The outlet described Szechuan House as a county staple and pegged its tenure at about 33 years. The report, published June 26, 2026, did not spell out a specific last day of service, leaving fans to watch social feeds and storefront signs for the final call.

The restaurant’s latest chapter began when it reopened at Timonium Square, across from the fairgrounds, after an earlier York Road spot shut down. As The Baltimore Banner reported, Szechuan House took over 2159 F York Rd and returned to the corridor just before Christmas, at a time when staffing issues and a crowded field of Chinese concepts made reopening a high-wire act.
Still, the Timonium storefront quickly became the brand’s visible presence north of the city, which helps explain why word of the closure hit longtime patrons so hard.
