    Picture of meal skimpy on serving
    Derrick B.

    I have been to thousands of restaurants during my time. Beijing Chinese in Lexington, MA is one of the worst when it comes to customer service. Today Christmas Day my family wanted to do something different for dinner we decided to go to the restaurant mentioned above. Upon arrival no smiling, rudeness, I said Merry Christmas cold response back. I went to pay because it was a pickup with Apple Pay the reader did not work I used my American Express not work the response I got was I don't know some cards work and some don't. I had to pull out my hard card to use and it went through. I don't like to throw racism in my experience however this is not the first time having this experience with this particular restaurant. And paying over $140 for 3 meals. Not extremely happy about this experience.

    One of the most impressive and delicious Chinese restaurants I encountered (in the US) was not in any metropolitan city Chinatown but here where the birthplace of our country all began: between the towns of Lexington and Concord, Massachusetts! Stopped by here coming back from a lovely excursion to Walden Pond on a misty October afternoon. We were a tad peckish having spent hours walking around the pond, exploring the autumn-colored woods, and viewing the exhibits at the Thoreau visitor center. As such, we found parking close by to this restaurant near Lexington and decided to see how the cuisine compared to our own Chinatown. We were amazed. Scottish novelist Mary Stewart once quipped: "Hunger is the best sauce"... she was right. At least it was hard to tell if being wet, cold, but reinvigorated by the unsurpassed beauty of Walden played a role in our assessment but we certainly ordered more than we could handle at one sitting! The food was amazing! The eggplant and wood ear fungus was superb. The spicy chicken shezchuan was hot both ways! (The way we like it but rarely encountered) The shrimp stuffed eggplant was innovative and scrumptious. Would definitely return to sample more of their menu on our next trip to Walden. Mahalo for reading my review.

    Decided to pop in while exploring Lexington Center, and I'm so glad I did! I really enjoyed my meal here but will say it was a bit on the pricer end for what you get. The waitress was very nice, and the restaurant was very clean. I will be back!

    It's hard to find authentic Chinese food (not chinese american food) outside of Chinatown...until you come here. My family friend who I've known almost my entire life owns this restaurant! She is one of the sweetest and most hard-working boss ladies out there. My family and I come here frequently not only because we love the owner, but also because of the service, dining decor, food, drinks, price, and the location is spot on. Now, let's talk about the DELICIOUS food. The food comes out timely and so flavorful! All of the dishes I have tried are always on point and make me feel like I'm eating food I grew up with! They also recently added a healthy menu which has many steamed items with more vegetables and proteins, yet so satisfying. I love a restaurant that cares about taste and health at the same time. We ordered the Salt and Pepper Small Smelt which are deep-fried fish that are thin. You can still eat the bone by the way because it is quite thin. If you love Scallion Pancakes or anything savory, fried, and flavorful, then please order yourself these at this place! These are extra special here because they are made from scratch instead of most restaurants where they heat up store-bought frozen sheets of scallion... If you're lucky, you may be treated with an off the menu delicious dessert: a fried sticky rice, sweet sesame, and peanut pancake. I can't forget about the bar! You can basically get anything you like here. The fish bowls are very fun too. There is big parking lot in the back with meters that aren't too expensive. In front there is street parking all over the center. The restaurant maybe a bit harder to find so remember it is on the second floor and there is a sign in the front. We prefer parking in the back and walking into the brick building next to CVS and a froyo place.

    Hot and Sour Soup. Excellent.
    Don P.

    Beijing House seems to be one of those restaurants with a very high Asian following and for good reason the food is well prepared and quite good. The Hot and Sour Soup is one of the better ones I've had with a nice balance of sour, hot spice and requisite Chinese vegetables. The Spring Rolls were well above average, not greasy, just a very nice crunchy exterior and the filling was perfect, delicious over all. The Mapo Tofu didn't quite have the bold Mala flavor I was hoping for but the Silky tofu and flavor from the ground pork, spices and sauce were enough to carry the dish over the finish line. This was a very nice Chinese luncheon experience. I can recommend the Beijing House if you are out and about in that area and are looking for some authentic Chinese cuisine

    Scallion pancakes and beef platter
    Anni L.

    This restaurant has been a staple for many who want to enjoy an authentic Chinese food experience in the area. My family and I have been coming to Beijing for many years and every meal has been memorable. Despite the global pandemic, the restaurant and staff have taken heavy precautions to ensure all diners are safe while enjoying their meal. They have plenty of gorgeous outdoor seating available on their patio that is perfect for the warm summer weather. One of our favorite appetizers is scallion pancakes with beef and side of cucumbers which is always tasty and customizable. We also ordered spicy cumin lamb and twin lobsters which were prepared in a dry-fried style. There are also plenty of vegetable dishes to accommodate your meal and the full bar is also a perfect addition to your dine out experience! If you're ever in the area and looking for delicious Chinese food, Beijing is the top pick.

The parking is located conveniently behind the building. The food is where it really shines. We tried a mix of dishes, and everything came out beautifully presented. The Pad Thai had a nice kick to it without being overwhelming, and the Drunken Noodles were packed with flavor. The Massaman Curry was rich and comforting, probably my favorite. The Thai Iced Tea was fun with a popsicle dunked in it! The service was friendly and pretty quick, even though the place was busy. Overall, it's a great place right in the heart of Lexington center whether you're meeting friends or just grabbing takeout. I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu.

There were 3 different people coming to our table and didn't introduce themselves so we had no idea who our server was. When we asked if we could order the lady that served our drinks told us we had to wait for someone else. We waited a pretty long time until someone came to take our order, and even a longer time to receive our food. The calamari and scallion pancake was delicious, super crispy and fresh. I enjoyed the coating on the calamari and it was not spicy at all, there were a bunch of peppers at the bottom. We also got the bbq pork, crispy ginger duck, and the stir fry beef. The bbq pork was pretty bland. The ginger duck had GREAT flavor but it was not crispy at all. It comes with a bunch of sauce on top and it made it kinda soggy. The stir fry beef was also really chewy. I really enjoyed the pineapple sorbet. It is light and refreshing. Definitely a must get after a meal!

Service was strange... hot tea came to table right away and was watered down and minimal tea flavor. I ordered a sesame chicken lunch special which came with soup egg drop soup, spring roll , white rice. I ordered a side of beef teriyaki . Waitress asked 1 or 2 teriyaki ? I assumed how many teriyaki sticks or small or large options? I said 2. Egg drop soup and spring roll shows up with duck sauce... egg drop soup was very good. Spring roll was excellent and filling was fresh. Then Next 2 orders of beef teriyaki with 4 sticks each show up??? She takes away my duck sauce from my spring roll... and leaves me with no duck sauce for my beef teriyaki? I now ask for duck sauce for teriyaki? She brings out a hot spicy sauce instead of duck sauce ? The sesame chicken was very good but more sweet and sour sauce flavor than sesame ? The beef teriyaki was extremely tough meat and I had to ask for a knife to cut up? No glass of water as I saw other tables getting water? I had to ask for water as tea wasn't doing it for me ? Then another duck sauce shows up I didn't ask for but glad it did arrive and was needed? Teriyaki had great flavor but tough like beef jerky and one order would have been enough to tolerate without the confusion of getting 2 orders and then also charged for two ? I found the service confusing and not a smooth outing? Then both the waitresses disappeared while waiting for the check . I asked for a glass of water at this point. No fortune cookie, pineapple or exit offering with the check? All in all I was confused.. but I would eat again here and assume staff trying ... next time I'll be very clear what 1 vs 2 means. The menu does look many good options and convenience with parking, location and nice dining room. I would have rate 4-5 stars but the teriyaki wasn't tender and too tough to enjoy.

I ordered the beef noodle soup ($15.95) and vegetarian leek pie ($9.95). Both came out within 10 minutes. The beef noodle soup had the thin flat wheat noodle ubiquitous in Taiwanese noodle soups. The soup was well-flavored with stock. Too many of these sorts of places over-rely on soy sauce, making a salty yet thin and underflavored bowl. Not here. I will nitpick and say that I would like larger chunks of beef, not the sort of cubed stew beef you see at the supermarket. The vegetarian leek pie (as it's called in the menu) is a pastry stuffed with chive (not leek), egg, and vermicelli. It was decently salted and hot. The portion sizes were quite satisfying as well. Closing thought - this place has, so far, the closest to what I would consider a decent bowl of Taiwanese beef noodle soup I've had in the Boston metro area so far. I'm always on the lookout for it
