“Very good hot pot and barbeque restaurant. Pre-cooked hot pots comes with just the right amount of everything and comes in all levels of spiciness. Takoyaki here is great as well! Price is very reasonable.Vegetarian options: Vegeterian hot pot is offered here.“
“Burlington Jade is one of the most consistent quality Chinese restaurants in the area . There is no seating , so it's only takeout . When ever you order , lunch/dinner , it's always prepared fresh with quality ingredients . I've ordered from here multiple times and have never been disappointed . The staff is wonderful , the food is excellent , what more could you ask for ... Definitely worth a visit .“
“The best dumplings I’ve ever had. My friend and I ordered seafood dumplings and we enjoyed it. We also had pork soup dumplings which was quite decent too. I recommend trying Dumpling House for the best food options if you’re in Cambridge area.“
“From start to finish it was amazing. The drinks and food were delicious. Atmosphere was so unique and you felt like you were truly in another place. The bartender we had was so different than anyone we've ever met. His food and drink recommendations were spot on.“
“Feel like something's changed in the past year or so. The food doesn't seem as cared for and has lost some of it's charm. not sure if just a bad day or if the chef has changed but other way feeling a little sad. still tasty but not the WOW it was “
“I came here for birthday drinks with my girlfriends and I was amazed with their cocktails. The lychee martini is delicious! Probably best one I've had in Boston. Ambiance is hip and beautiful. Shout out to Bao for making us feel extra special that day ! Will definitely come back to try the food!“
“Delicious dumplings! This was the best dumplings i’ve ever had and most creative options for dumplings!! they have soup dumplings, which were very unique and were absolutely delicious and fun to try. i had the pork soup dumplings and highly recommend them! their fried pork dumplings were also incredibly good and they have their own unique style as well with flaky crust that adds a slight crunch to the dumplings. Also highly recommend the pink tea pared with the meal. staff was very nice and meal service was great. plenty of seating, this is a hot spot in town and well known for their tasty dumplings!Parking: Paid street parking available“
“Got Mu Lan fillet fish, green beans, and fried pork chops. The food was very tasty, but I did feel that what I ordered felt a bit heavy. Recommend mulan for people who are looking for a filling and flavorful meal. I was there at 8PM and waited about 10 minutes to be seated.“
“Great food, great service, polite friendly staff. The owner greets us every time we go in ,will sit and chat for a bit and help you find just what you are looking for to eat. His suggestions are always greatly appreciated and I make it a point to go 1x a month at least.Bartender is kind. Efficient and great drinks . ? welcome to LowellParking: They have both free parking on 1 side and parking garage access on the other.“
“POSITIVE: Good hot and sour soup. Good lunch options (food quantity and price). NEGATIVE: 1 person took our order, another person delivered the food to our table. No one came to check if everything was ok, or offer water refill. Kung Pao chicken was more sweet than spicy. Would not order again. Crab rangoon was overcooked and hard to eat. Went during a Saturday lunchtime. Very few customers until close to end of lunch special time. On-street parking, so limited by time of day and other business customers on the same street. It's a little "hole in the wall" place; easy to miss. In all fairness, I would try it once more to see if other dishes are better.“
“Quite simply excellent Asian cuisine. They aren't kidding when they say that your name and face are remembered. One of the waitresses, Sharon, is one fine example of that. She remembers our preferences from visit to visit plus she is friendly and accommodating. Do you enjoy sushi? They have great, fresh sushi just waiting for you to sample! Check this place out. You won't be disappointed!“
“Tried take out this week from this spot: Sauteed Chicken W Long Horn Pepper In Scallion Pancake Roll - highly recommend Mini Juicy Buns W Pork(6) - very tasty Mala Spicy Beef - good - a lot of beef, prepare. Overall, very tasty items all around. I liked the mini pork buns and the scallion pancake rolls the most, but all probably worth a try based on experience with what I had.“
“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Happy Lamp Hot Pot, located in the vibrant heart of Central Square, and what an experience it was! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere promised a fun and engaging dining experience, and it certainly delivered.The hot pot itself was absolutely delicious. The broth was rich and flavorful, creating the perfect base for all the fresh and high-quality ingredients we could choose from. Whether you're a meat lover, seafood enthusiast, or vegetarian, there's something for everyone, and the adventure of cooking your food right at your table adds an exciting twist to the meal.What stood out to me, apart from the delectable food, was the sheer fun of the experience. Happy Lamp Hot Pot is the ideal spot for a group of friends or family looking to enjoy not just a meal, but a truly social and interactive dining experience. The staff was friendly and helpful, guiding us through the menu and making recommendations that enhanced our meal.The Central Square location is perfect for anyone looking to dive into the local culture and enjoy a lively dining scene. It’s easy to get to, and once you’re there, you’re in for a treat“
“Silk Road has become our family's go-to spot whenever we're craving something special. We've lost count of the number of times we've dined here, but every visit feels like a new adventure.We have tried almost everything on the menu and it never disappoints. And guess what? Our kids are totally into it too! Sure, some dishes can pack a bit of heat, but just give the server a heads up.The place is limited in space and they do not take reservations so sometimes it feels like a bit of a squeeze. But hey, that's part of the charm, right? Just be prepared for a bit of a tight squeeze, especially if you're rolling in with a big crew.Overall, Silk Road gets a big thumbs up from us. Whether you're a die-hard fan of Uyghur food or just looking for a fun family outing, this place won't disappoint.“
“Best Chinese food ever! I ordered chicken and broccoli, amazing! Also ordered orange chicken (medium heat) another amazing dish! Tender chicken, but not greasy. I ordered and paid online directly through their website and picked up myself. Order was ready on time, staff friendly and accommodating. 5 “
“Been there 3 times already and will continue to go. Food is great and tastes authentic (even if the design of the dishes feels somewhat formulaic).Milk and fruit tea options are a great combo with the spicy dishes.Vibe is minimalistic and modern, which fits the theme.I think the only thing they need is to update their marketing strategy to become more localized and attract more regular customers. As it stands it still feels like a brand imported from overseas.“
“The best dumplings I’ve ever had. My friend and I ordered seafood dumplings and we enjoyed it. We also had pork soup dumplings which was quite decent too. I recommend trying Dumpling House for the best food options if you’re in Cambridge area.“
“Food is exceptional! Scallion pancakes & wings were very good, but the spicy braised beef w/ handmade noodle and braised pork belly w/ rice were amazing! We will definitely be returning to try out everything on the menu ?? Extra points for a very tasty brown sugar “
“I love this place, have being customer of theirs since they opened, and they have grown so much and really well. I didn't have any complaints about anything every time I came. I would definitely highly recommend this spot for a nice downtime. Great to have friend hangout times, for really anything. The new food additions are really good! Service is awesome, very kind people. Great choice of music too! They have piano and guitar!!!!Kid-friendliness: My sister loves it here, she is 11! Awesome place for family and friends!“
“If you haven’t eaten here you certainly should, it’s a hidden gem with the best dumplings I have ever tasted. The lady who owns and runs it is a fantastic personality and a joy to see for every short occasion. I would have posted a photo to show how perfectly crisp they are but I ate them before I thought to post and ate them far too quickly. The homemade dumpling sauce is such a compliment. Highly recommend going out of your way to make it here for the times it’s open you wouldn’t regret it.“
“This is literally the best Chinese food restaurant in Massachusetts. Food is 5/5 - both Chinese & Sushi. Service is 5/5, Drinks are 5/5. The only negative is that it's so popular you may have to wait for a table, but it's worth the wait!“
“Love this place so much--they're so good that my dad drove 2 hours out of state just so that visiting would overlap with getting takeout from here again. They have such a wide range and it's so, so good. We got the: 酸菜牛肉 - Sliced Beef & Pickled Cabbage and Chili and I can't stop thinking about it. I also usually get basically anything off the Szechuan Spicy Style section of the menu and I'm happy (especially the Sliced Chicken and Cabbage with Hot Chili Sauce). The dumplings are also very good, and hefty-- the meat feels wonderfully flavorful. Great place, love it a lot, figured I should leave a loving review.“
“Recommended!! New fav hotpot buffet spot in Malden! >> Reasonable price + Clean + Fresh + Yummy + warm service???The bone broth and spicy butter broth are awesome. The meats are tender and delicious.The sweet sticky rice in buffet menu is yummm.Also we tried the meat in the screwers today (a la carte). It's good as well.Overall, Definitely come back ?“
“Awesome local place. Consistently quick takeout. Or come sit at the bar for a drink and a Rangoon and a good time. One of the only lively places in Arlington ??♀️ They often have live music, and will let ya put whatever you want on the tv!“
“Food is great! Family style and they offer hot pot. I love that the waitress takes time to explain menu if you have any questions. Drinks are great! Nothing fancy about the location inside there is a bar in the front and restaurant seating on the side. Will be back here again.“
“Staff was super friendly, food & cocktails were AMAZING!! The seafood delight & wings were very flavorful, but my favorite thing would have to be the Mai Tai flight . The drinks are a bit on the stronger side which is a plus of course! It was my first time coming to MeiWei & I definitely will be coming back very soon with friends“
“We love it here. The food is so authentic and spicy. It takes your tastebuds to a whole new place. The staff is so friendly and welcoming. It’s truly a gem here, and the authentic nature here makes you appreciate their culture. Also, the Mai Tai is wonderful and the price is reasonable for the quality of food you are getting. The restaurant is huge, and we only had to wait once on Chinese New Year. We get the Spicy Jumbo Shrimp, Sweet and Sour Picked Radish and the Smoked Pork with green pepper. You must give this place a try if you keep an open mind, and truly want authentic cuisine. It’s simply the best! Thank you.“
“So good. Like going into Chinatown but with parking and good service ?2024 Update: This restaurant has been under new management (I believe it was sold to the previous owners god children) for a while now. Against all odds and expectations, it has gone from a really good spot to an even better, great restaurant. They have updated the menus, leaning harder into the authentic dishes that had set them apart, and brought an exciting energy. It's always bustling but never overwhelming. Welcoming and warm. It's so fun to watch old dishes that I loved get even better (ex. 3 cup tofu eggplant now has a smokey aspect that I didn't know I was missing) and to see the new owners make their mark.Thanks for bringing your passion, we are so proud of you and I am sure your god parents are too!“
“Tried it while in the area based on Yelp reviews. Got the springs rolls and pan fried dumplings as appetizers. The spring rolls were okay not great. The pan fried dumplings were really good. for entrees we got the Vegetarian Delight, the Basil Chicken with eggplant in Garlic sauce, and Chicken in black bean sauce. The vegetables in the Delight were excellent, the sauce was one of those sort of Chinese American white sauces that I am not really a fan of but was still decent. The Basil chicken dish was quite tasty, really good sauce and the eggplant was really, really good. The chicken in black bean was a simple but excellent dish. The serving dishes might have seemed cool in concept but perhaps had a flaw in actual use because they seemed to have a tendency to easily overflow due to design that has weakness on either end. Simple order at the counter and they bring to your table in the small dining room. Seems to be primarily a take out place but the dining room was clean and the service to the table good. They checked in on us. Bathroom was nice and clean.“
“This place is really nice and you can have breakfast. Due to my work, I travel around various places and have tried many Chinese restaurants. The food in this restaurant can definitely be regarded as one of the authentic Chinese tastes. To be honest, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with the beef tendon noodles, pancake fruit, tofu noodles, sauced bones, meat skewers, sweet and sour pork loin, and couple’s lung slices, and I’m quite surprised to be able to eat beef tendon noodles and tofu noodles. actually. . There are no serious dishes mentioned here, mainly because we all love to eat dumplings and basically eat dumplings hahaha. I highly recommend you try them, they are really good! In fact, I often go to restaurants that have been around for a long time. In my own words, they are called "Old restaurants must have unique skills" hhh. Before I came here, I saw some comments about certain dishes and I was particularly worried about them. But as for me, In terms of experience, I feel pretty good. Everyone's taste is different, so if you're interested, come and try it yourself.“
“The inside of the restaurant is nice and welcoming. The staff are very friendly as well! I’ve ordered takeout from here 4 times now and honestly it’s become my exclusive go to and somewhere I consistently recommend to others.The food tastes just like the Chinese food I had as a kid in Europe that was fresh, authentic, and simply delicious. The egg fried rice (ask for no soy sauce), the volcano chicken, and the chicken in black bean sauce are no brainers (as in delicious and generous portions). The peking ravioli (only had steamed) is one of the better ones I’ve had in the Boston area too! Service is fast as well. Tasty, authentic, great portion size and service - what more can you ask for?“
“Very nice atmosphere. Service okay but need to ask twice as a reminder. They walk away from the keno machine too often and you miss your game. All the food I ordered was delicious except fried calamari. Looked terrible and smelled fishy. Don't let that sway you from enjoying this resturant. Very nice place and friendly staff.“
“Best drinks EVER and even better food, dumplings are amazing. Easily a 10/10!! Would highly recommend to anyone. Also had an espresso martini that is one of my favorites in the Boston area, and even the staff/employees are incredibly accommodating!!“
“This is a special place. Very friendly and welcoming people. Best Peking Ravioli by a long shot over anywhere else in town. Full of flavor and the dipping sauce has spices added that make it a great accompaniment. Not just the same stuff others offer. Soups full of fresh vegetables and tasty broth. No choice for me anymore. Best in town.“
“It feels like Hong Kong restaurants are all homemade and not frozen.You can eat shredded radish in radish cake?Shrimp dumplings and siomai are both thin-skinned and elastic with fillings~The beef louvers are very fresh but it takes a long time to chew hahaThe rice rolls are also delicious and the portions are large.Maybe we left the crispy quicksand buns too long before eating them, and the fillings were a bit solid. They were very filling and very filling after eating them.The one that I'm a little bit offended about is the fried taro dumplings. The filling is a bit boring and the taro paste doesn't feel like much seasoning, but it's very crispy.The wait was really long at 11 a.m. on Sunday ? An hour at least. You may have to arrive early to wait for a table on weekends“
“THIS RESTAURANT IS SO DELICIOUS!!! Everything one the menu is cooked to perfection, served hot with a smile. The staff are very friendly and their menu items are authentic. I am obsessed with their chicken teriyaki appetizer and the happy family entree. Everything that I have ordered has been superb.“
“Just ordered luncheons Sushi fresh and delicious with a generous amount of sushi, miso soup and a salad. Also got luncheon with chow Mein came with wonton soup and crab Rangoon. Veggies were crunchy and light, fried rice was fresh. Good value and considerately packaged. Very fresh. Highly recommend this place.“
“Deena wings , Black Label maki, and filet mignon tips will blow your mind! Great atmosphere! Great service! Sometimes you wanna go Where everybody knows your name And they're always glad you came You wanna be where you can see Our troubles are all the same You wanna be where everybody knows your name“
“Great place, fantastic food. Great portions for the price too! Super friendly staff, had a great chat with the owner while I stopped by! Thanks Shuu!!Vegetarian options: My sister had me pick her up a veggie dish and she loved it.Kid-friendliness: Great food, great staff. Definitely kid friendly.Parking: Plenty of parking, free parkingWheelchair accessibility: Nothing stopping a wheelchair from going in!“
“I have always gotten a great dinner from them. Their food is always good. Well worth the price. Once, they forgot to put our chicken fingers in the order. They kept trying to call us on a cell phone that we don't usually answer. When we got home, we called them, and they offered to send their delivery guy out to us with just 4 chicken fingers. Ambience, is stockroom city, sweetheart.“
“I had to come back and update my review -- Shine's has changed, and I think it's great. I hadn't been here since pre-COVID, but a few months ago my family decided to give it another try, and we've been back regularly ever since. The menu is almost completely different from what it was back in 2017: they are focused on authentic dishes, and doing it very well. I wish I'd come back sooner! The menu contains a lot of choices that aren't typical, but are very tasty. We particularly like the Rougamo sandwiches (listed on the menu as "burgers", but that's not exactly how I would describe them) and the "pancakes" (more like stuffed crepes, sort of), particularly the shredded potato pancakes. The soups are also excellent and unusual. And there are still areas of the menu we haven't explored at all. (I have no idea what "Toofy" is... guess I'll have to try it.) My only (minor) complaint is that you order at a kiosk (or online, for take-out) so you can't ask the waiter/waitress for any info/recommendations.“
“The buffet is killer. It's a lunch buffet. Lots and lots of choices. Somewhat, I think, or authentic Chinese choices as well. It was packed when we got there and food was still fresh and hot. I will add, it's two dollars cheaper here than it is in the Burlington restaurant. What gives with that?“
“Wonderful staff! Our chef was entertaining and skillful. Food was perfectly cooked. The atmosphere is fun and friendly.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free meal was prepared separately in the kitchen and brought out when everyone else was being served. Thank you!“
“The place has more young college age people than I expect for a traditional Chinese restaurant. Interior design looks more like an American than an Asian restaurant. Food is good but pricy. I did like their river eel dish that is difficult to get from Asian restaurants, where I usually get sea eels. Overall the food is moderately spicy so most people that have tried Chinese spicy food will be able to enjoy.“
