Mango Sticky Rice
Cindy Z.

I ordered delivery from Kin Dee Thai and the food was delicious! The pod Thai with shrimp was good and the mango sticky rice was fresh and flavorful. I would order from them again.

Pineapple fried rice
Stephanie T.

Food was very authentic! Khao sou had perfect amount of spice, packed with flavor, and appreciated that they separated the soup from the contents for our to-go order so it didn't get soggy. I was a little surprised to find pork floss in the pineapple fried rice, but overall the rice had great balance of flavor without over spicing, and enough sweetness from pineapple actually cooked into it. Pad Thai, despite being cult classic, varies so much restaurant to restaurant and this place does it how I personally like it. Panang duck curry was on point, a little on the spicier side. Thai teas were same as most Thai teas, nothing special but always delicious. Pad see ew was the only dish that did not impress me, a little too sweet and a little too much sauce, while the noodles were a little too soft for me. I would've liked it with a springier chew and a slight more char from a wok. Overall great food and my parents loved it!

Tom yum pad thai
Jeff K.

So I'll start off with two things: first, I am a major Thai food fanatic and secondly this review is based upon eating it after a strenuous 20 mile run on the Minuteman Trail. Overall this place is super legit and incredibly authentic and good ingredients. I had - Starters: Chicken satay (great) Curry puff (my Thai friend told me only better and real Thai restaurants have these, and I agree and love them here. They are a Must get) Roti curry sauce (so good) Meal: TomYum Pad Thai (portion huge, but so good)

The food was pretty poor and I wasn't even able to eat the food. No rice and the portions were pretty small. Very disappointing.

Everytime we show up for dinner there is always alot of take out orders which is a good sign. There is one very nice waitress which runs around alot when the place is packed but she does a very good job of providing timely service to everyone. We really enjoy the hand pulled noodles which is a must every time we done in. They are cooked perfectly and are packed with flavor of whichever dish you choose them with. We also really enjoy their dry hot pot, especially the shrimp dry pot. It's a stir fry kind of dish packed with several veggies like red peppers, broccoli and much more! The soups are also very good and rich in flavor and are perfect for a chilly day. Some of them are served in a large portion so they are perfect for sharing. You really can't go wrong with any dish! The menu is insanely long and they have a code system for each item tagged with a letter and number which makes it easier to order. We really enjoy dining here and it's always fun to try a new dish from their large menu!

Great authentic cuisine!…read more We really enjoy dining in at Taipei because everything is always so darn delicious! There are plenty of big and small tables and the waiters are very nice. They have a huge menu with some images to choose from. It's always so hard to decide because we want to order everything everytime we are craving good Chinese food! As soon as you sit down they bring you a tea pot full of hot tea which is really nice. This time we wanted to try the spicy fried fish and the sand pumpkin and mini shrimp fried rice. The fish was nice and spicy and very crunchy! The sand pumpkin had a nice texture and it was cooked perfectly. Every dish was literally made to order because each one came out hot and one right after the other. By the end of the meal we were stuffed and satisfied and we were happy to have leftovers to take home. This place never disappoints!

For a late 2pm Saturday lunch I stopped by Taipei Gourmet. The establishment was one-third full, so…read moreI received a seat immediately. 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

As a vegetarian, I was especially impressed by their dedicated vegetarian menu.

Everything we ordered was incredibly flavorful and delicious. And the **chili crisp oil with those crunchy chili crisps**--WOW! Hands down, the best I have ever had. I could not get enough of it! Two people in our group were non-vegetarian and absolutely loved their seafood, and the Mai Tais were a big hit too. It's rare to find a restaurant where both vegetarians and non-vegetarians can be equally excited about the food. Superb vegetarian food, delicious seafood, fantastic drinks, and that unforgettable chili crisp! We had such a wonderful evening and will absolutely be back. Highly recommended--especially to fellow vegetarians looking for genuinely delicious Thai food!

The friend who wanted Chinese asked the waiter for a shrimp recommendation and talked with the waiter about what he would like and when the food came it was exactly what he wanted.

It reminds me a little of the old Shine's Fresh Asian in Belmont, except somehow cozier and a little more elevated. If you're looking for a place for a big group, this probably won't work. Most of the seating is bar-style facing a beautiful Chinese-inspired wallpaper. However, if you're eating solo, or with one other person, I think it's one of the best places around. There's something incredibly peaceful about settling in with a hot bowl of noodle soup while the clay pot keeps everything piping hot on a cold, snowy winter's day. The menu has so many different soups and hand-pulled noodles that I keep telling myself I'm going to branch out. In fact, I *thought* I had branched out...until my food arrived and I realized I had accidentally ordered the exact same dish I'd gotten the last time. Apparently my subconscious knows what it's likes. The culprit? The clay pot rice noodle soup with pork, Spam, chives, carrots, napa cabbage, baby bok choy, wood ear mushrooms, quail egg, tomato, green onions, and soy sauce. That is an absurd amount of yummy goodness packed into one bowl, and honestly, I can't even be mad at myself for ordering it twice. Could you get it to go? Sure. I've certainly done it before, but I think this is one of those meals that's meant to be eaten there. The clay pot keeps everything hot, the noodles stay just right, and the whole experience feels comforting in a way that doesn't quite survive a car ride home. I sincerely hope House of Noodles stays in Newton for a very long time. It's the kind of neighborhood restaurant that quietly becomes part of your routine, and I'm really glad it's here.

Unfortunately, most of what we ordered fell well short of expectations. The green curry was particularly unpleasant. The sauce had a strong flavor reminiscent of unwashed canned bamboo shoots, and the dish was much more like a thin soup than a curry. At $16, I was disappointed that it didn't come with rice and had such a small amount of chicken and vegetables. The satay noodles were another letdown. They had a strange flavor and an extremely gummy texture that made them unpleasant to eat. The karee puffs were decent, although quite dry, and would have benefited from a dipping sauce. The one genuine highlight was the pla lui suan (deep-fried mackerel). The breading was flavorful and satisfyingly crunchy, and it was the only dish I would genuinely recommend based on our experience. Overall, I left very disappointed. One good dish couldn't make up for the lackluster flavors, unpleasant textures, and poor value of the rest of the meal.

Decent South Asian and Nepalese place with surprisingly a karaoke night!…read more The bara is a fried pancake of sorts, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The dipping sauce was good as well, possibly a mint-like flavor. The pork momos were really good too, with nice crimping on the skin and decent fillings inside. The chicken vindaloo was decent, though I might have liked more specificity to the flavoring of the vindaloo. The potatoes were nicely textured. The chicken bites were a bit large, they could have been chopped up a bit. The gorkhali khasi (a goat curry) was fairly decent with tender nice pieces. The flavoring was oversalted and again could have used a tad more definition. The bone-in aspect was appreciated as it held the flavor of the meat. The bhindi masala (okra) was fairly successful with a solid infusion of flavor into the okra. The dish was overall too oily though and some steps need to be taken to minimize the oil. All in all quite enjoyable!
