Over charged $35 by over-counting 6 soups, well, that's OK, people make mistakes, but when refund, they silently kept the 18% tips on the overcharged portion, well, that has to be greedy. Also the 18% tip is mandatory for a group of 6?

Always solid food at Changsho. It's been there for so many years. The only rough thing is parking.You have to really find a place and then you'll be okay. Eddie the owner is very nice. I would suggest the crab rangoon.

Very good restaurant. If you like the Peking Duck, this is the place. A little pricey but better taste than other places! Could do with better dessert menu and expand their beer choices!

The food is solid, however I’m not sure if we came at a time when waitstaff was spread thin as they could only accommodate parties larger than three.

Happened to eat dinner here on Chinese New Year. I think the service was a bit slow due to the new year crowd, but I thought the food was excellent. It is a large place; it was not too noisy despite the crowd. We had soup, scallion pancakes, Beijing duck, Cumin beef, and a special fish dish from the New Year menu. It was my first time here. I'd certainly come again.

The food is indeed delicious. The pricing is not. The menu on their website is cheaper than in person; this is not noted. When I asked about their moo shu being $18.95 with 6 pancakes on their website, yet $22.95 with 4 pancakes in person, I was told this was correct for take-out vs. in person dining. The service in an empty restaurant was very inattentive.

I’ve been coming here for years and think it is consistently excellent. If you want chicken wings and pupu platters, head to the Kowloon. Nothing wrong with that. Come here for dumplings and somewhat more authentic dishes. Oh and the Mai tais are killer!

Lovely and spaciousParking: Don't park in the lot next to the restaurant or your car will be towed. You can generally find metered parking on Mass Ave in front of the restaurant.

Service was okay, however, Pad Thai had no sauce on it—just oil. When I inquired for sauce I was told that was the way it comes. Just plain noodles with some chicken, egg, and peanuts. Egg drop soup was bland. My husband had no complaints about his meal, though.

My wife and I came drive 20 mins to get here. I was hoping to find a great Chinese restaurant that was directly in Boston and here was a good location.My experience was subpar, as the service was pretty good unfortunately the underwhelming food made the whole experience bitter.Beginning with the price point. Expensive! I’m not complaining about the price but honestly the price needs to meet the quality. When I see prices like that I expect a decent meal which I didn’t get.First was my shrimp dumplings. I’ve never paid 12.50 for them and when they came to the table I bit into it and the center wasn’t cooked. That was a horrible start. I’ve read other reviews stating their Peking duck was good? Let’s dive into the duck. It wasn’t fresh first off and I’ve never in my life had flour tortillas as the wrap for the Peking duck. ? what in the world!!! The fried rice was bland.

Great for takeout. No offense but the lady on the phone was very hard to hear. She also talked extremely fast. The food is great!
