MUST TRY!!! They hired a new chef and EVERY dimsum dish is amazing. The Beef and Vegetables Pan Fried Noodles is the best VS Quincy + Chinatown. Recommendations: -Beef and vegetables pan fried noodles -Lobster dumplings -Deep fried TARU shrimp -Shu Mai On the weekends they open at 9AM! And they serve special items that you cannot order on the weekday. Such as bakery pastries and the sweet tofu.

How did I only just find this place!! This Chinese restaurant is honestly better than some of the spots in Chinatown. I ordered a bunch of dishes, and every single one of them was delicious — not a single miss. It was truly amazing. The staff were also incredibly friendly and provided excellent service. I highly recommend this place and will definitely be coming back again!

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Marc Fernandez · Oct 2024

Went there for Dim Sum and the restaurant is looking rather run down. There were not many people there. Was expecting a bigger crowd. We got served and seared fast vs how I had remember when I went to the one in Boston Chinatown which had now closed down ☹️ The authenticate plates with their logo is still there remnants of how majestic and grand they were when they had both Boston and Dorchester running! The food quality also had dropped. I felt the Dim Sum was not hot enough and became cold quickly. The taste was not how I remember either. Quality has dropped and the prices has gone up. Overall I have had better Dim Sum in Quincy.

They don’t skimp on meat!! Got the beef chow foon and when it came to the table, we were wondering where the noodles were. Lots of beef on the plate, very yum but a bit flavorless. I added sweet soy sauce to it and chili oil and it made it much better. Their dim sum is about $7 each which seems a bit pricey but it’s worth it when you see the size of each dumpling. Like I said, they don’t skimp! Enjoyed everything we ordered.

Everything was absolutely disgusting! The lo mein was ice cold. I went in an ordered and was home in 5 minutes! The egg rolls were so greasy and burnt as were the beef teriyaki and tuff! The fried rice tasted burnt and old, egg foo yung was swimming in grease that was supposed to be gravy…No Gravy!!!! I wish this had smellovision taking these photos all I smell is burnt!!!! I would give it a minus 5 stars!!! Do Not Recommend! Never Again!
