    Tea egg
    Nhung N.

    Asia Gourmet is a fast food Chinese restaurant that is walking distance to Oak Grove train station. There is a small parking lot directly in front of the restaurant. You can easily drive past the restaurant because it appear more like a residential home than a business. When you walk inside, you can't help but feel like the first floor of a residential home was cut out and made into a make shift business. There is a counter for ordering with an open kitchen behind the counter where food is prepared, and to your left is a small narrow seating area for diners. The space is tight with two small tables and about six chairs. We had our food to go. The service was very friendly and food was prepared quickly. To my disappointment, every dish including the bubble tea was sub par. The bubble tea was probably the worst I have ever had. We ended up throwing it away as no one wanted it. It was also expensive at $4.75. For appetizer I ordered the duck bao. This was expensive at $8.75 for two pieces, so a little over $4 per piece. What you get is shredded duck meat with some skin, thinly sliced cucumbers, and green onions. The shredded duck meat was dry and the cucumber not fresh. This was not to my expectations at all. The steamed chicken with scallion sauce rice plate was what had led us to this restaurant. I was looking up restaurants that served Hainese chicken and rice. Normally we would go to Penang or Hong Kong Eatery in Chinatown. To our disappointment, the chicken had very little meat and the rice was plain. It really does not stack up to the places I have had this dish at. We also ordered a braised beef and bean curd rice plate. The dish was okay but the flavor had a sweetness to it. I ate all of the vegetables and the tea egg that came with the meal but couldn't take more than two bites. The same was true with the house lo mein. To our disappointment, the noodle was excessively oily. I couldn't eat that either. I ended up giving my entire dinner to my brother to take home since we knew we would not be eating the food even as leftovers. I honestly wanted to like this place because the person who serviced us was so friendly. But there were clues everywhere. One of the clues, I heard the sound of a microwave going off in the kitchen while waiting for our food to be prepared. I didn't care about the interior which was cramp and dirty. I didn't care about the cheap plastic decor and all the things that was normally have me grab a menu and walk right back out the door. Yelp reviews were overwhelmingly favorable so I boldly ordered away. I really wanted another quick dinner option since this restaurant is not too far of a drive from where I live. But everything about the meal left me highly disappointed and to the point where I can't even give this place a second chance. I am really sorry, this is a no for me.

    combo plate

    This place is amazing and it taste amazing as well!! The amazing lady who runs this special restaurant is super sweet and has the best customer service that I have ever encountered at any place. 10/10!!!

    Ordered through ubereats. Everything was terrible. The chicken and broccoli had so much sauce it was spilling out the side. The white rice had black seeds in it that looked like mouse terds. It was probably a spice because they were all clustered in the middle but I'm not convinced. See picture below. You be the judge. They gave you a free crab rangoon and a spring roll with nothing in it. Im quite disappointed in this place considering the previous reviews.

    Pad Thai.
    Elisa C.

    I came here for a second time, this time trying the other offerings. I got the Pad Thai for there and the proclaimed Beef Brisket Noodle Soup to go. The Pad Thai was on the spot. Not at all oily, lots of peanuts and scallions, large shrimp, chewy noodles and the crunchy bean sprouts really made my tummy happy. The lime on the side allowed me to squeeze as much citrus as I liked. I really also appreciated the wax paper underneath the plate to soak up any excess oil, though there was barely any once finished. The Beef Brisket Noodle Soup was not a joke either. Even though it was cold by the time I got home, a quick reheat of the soup in the microwave brought the broth back to life. Adding the noodles, vegetables, and beef into the soup added more flavor and delicious. Again, not oily and very filling. I hope to come back again to try something else Service: 5/5 Cleanliness: 5/5 Food: 5/5

    Scallion pie

    Awesome place! We loved coming here for their scallion steamed chicken and scallion pie. The chicken was so juicy and tender, nice blend of scallion and sweet soy sauce to make the chicken so much more flavorful after all the chicken was steamed and it's own flavor was very subtle and nice. We also loved the dumplings we ordered, at first we thought we ordered too much food for only two grown ups and a 6 year old. It was not the case, we finished it all and ordered another round of dumplings and scallion pie. The scallion pie itself was so flaky and filled with scallion, got a really nice flavor to it. The ginger sauce that goes with it was to die for. We could literally drink it straight it was so good, a little spicy and sweet with very natural ginger flavor. You could still see the bits of ginger in the sauce. We wanted to buy a couple more of the ginger sauce they just gave them to us for free. Very friendly staff! This cute friendly restaurant is well worth the trip from Boston and prices are reasonable too. Thank you for a satisfying meal as always.

    I give my highest recommendation for Asia Gourmet! It is a tiny restaurant with only 7-10 seats. But the food is wonderful! The bento box is economical and yummy!The Yunnan Rice Noodle with pork is my favorite! The location is great! It is near the oak grove station. Yes! Try it now!

    Amazing!

The atmosphere is sleek and stylish, with nice decor and an open layout that includes a central bar. There's plenty of seating, making it a good spot for larger groups. We tried a few different dishes during our visit. They started us off with a couple of unique side dishes on the house, which was a nice touch. For our meal, we ordered the chicken satay, a pad thai, and a curry with steak. The chicken satay, unfortunately, wasn't for us, the flavor was different than what we expected and we didn't end up finishing it, though others might like their interpretation. The pad thai was delicious, with a really generous portion size and great flavor. The real highlight of the night was the steak and curry. The steak itself was cooked perfectly, really tender and juicy. It went amazingly well with the rich curry. The curry had a slight, building kick to it that paired perfectly with rice and brought the whole dish together. We ended the meal with the mango sticky rice for dessert. It was presented beautifully with the rice shaped into a heart, and it tasted perfect, with it being not too sweet at all. The scoop of ice cream on the side paired with it really well. It's a solid choice for a nicer Thai meal with a cool vibe. While not every single dish was a home run for us, the highlights were genuinely excellent and made for a really enjoyable dinner.

Refreshing, but with so many cocktails on the menu, I'd likely try something else next time. Before getting into the food, I will say I really appreciated the display of the food and the little touches that made it feel like an elevated dining experience. For instance, the khao soy curry comes in a teapot that you pour over your noodles and chicken, and the A5 wagyu is flamed at the table so you can determine your preference level. The khao soy was delicious with a creamy broth that was flavorful and hearty. The sous vide chicken also made the dish feel a bit more healthy than usual khao soy. There were a good portion of noodles that were firm enough to be enjoyed despite all the broth. My only caveat is that this is a pretty spicy dish and even when I asked for mild it still had a kick to it. Delicious but spicy so I ordered a side of rice but overall it's so delicious that I'd still order it again. My husband's rice was also really flavorful and well balanced between the meat and the rice. Each bite felt like a nice combination of the two elements. The servers were also friendly and while it could be hard to get someone to come by at times, we were also there during peak dinner hours. This place gets pretty busy and often has groups so I highly recommend making a reservation. Even for just two diners I made a reservation and was glad I did. The restaurant heavily leans into the tiger theme which is also fun to see the different elements of it from decor to the staff's attire. I cant wait to come back and try more items from the menu.

Thai ice tea - not overly sweet light and creamy after you mix it. Green Thai iced tea - more tea flavor shown thru this version i enjoyed this too! Larb chicken - amazing dish i really liked it, only comment would be maybe the minced protein toss some bigger diced chunks in too to soak up that cr*ck sauce! Basil chicken fried rice - spicy good flavor overall and chicken was plenty. I sort of was hoping they would have the signature like basil spice "glaze/sauce" they could do like other spots for basil dishes but they did not. It's good how it is though but if i was to get crispy chicken - def would need a sauce for my taste anyways. Red curry with salmon creamy extra spicy (you can choose spice level) salmon was cooked well in here and the flavor broth went so well soaked in the white rice! Bbq pork skewers - like your friends bbq where their folks went all out. Shoot perfect drinking food. Nampla chicken wings- really good fish sauce base wings!

I highly recommend this place if you like spicy. I requested for extra spicy for the red curry with salmon & I was pleasantly surprised that it tasted actually spicy! Many Thai spots I've gone to tend to not deliver the level of spicy I'm looking for, so I'm happy I was able to get it here. Salmon was cooked perfectly & the curry was delicious. We loved the basil fried rice with chicken also. Flavorful & had a nice kick. Chicken was not dry either! The chicken laarb was addictive to eat. It had the right amount of citrus & spice. Generous portion too! Nampla wings reminded me of nuoc mam/Vietnamese fish sauce wings. I personally found the wings to be a bit dry but the sauce it came with really helped. Good flavor though. Lastly, both the Green iced Thai tea & regular iced Thai tea were solid. Not the best but still good. I'm a big fan of Green iced Thai tea & not many places offer this. I always make sure to order it wherever and whenever I can find it! Overall, I'm so glad we were able to stop in for dinner at the Crying Thaiger.

Picanha fried rice - the standout dish and the reason I keep coming back. Easily one of the best fried rice dishes I've had. The meat was perfectly cooked and paired beautifully with the rice. Torched salmon roll - tasty overall, but quite heavy, so good to share. Service is straightforward and efficient. Overall a great spot for catching up with friends or an easy date night.

For my appetizer, I ordered the fried calamari and the golden bags, but both were disappointingly greasy--the food wasn't allowed to drain properly before being packed. There was literal grease seeping through my bag and I could taste it upon eating the appetizers. The calamari was also tough and didn't seem fresh, almost as if it wasn't real calamari at all. The golden bags had potential, but they would have been much better if the Thai aromatics had been marinated into the ground chicken instead of relying mostly on corn. For my main dish, I ordered the drunken noodles--absolutely fire. Flavorful, tasty, and very well done. I've been here several times before and usually find the food to be quite good. I stopped coming for a while because I felt the flavor quality had declined. If consistency in cooking and quality can't be maintained, customers will drift away. As someone who loves Thai food, I'm looking for consistent quality and a reliable flavor experience. Please make the appetizers tasty!
