Great food here always!…read more We decided to eat here after line dancing at the Boston Common. We ordered mapo tofu and the kung pao chicken with rice. Both yummy and delicious. A bit spicy but so good couldn't stop eating! We were so full! Service was friendly and food came out fairly quickly. Place was crowded lots of people which is always a good sign. This is a beautiful restaurant, very elegant decor. Overall great experience!

They tried to keep the kitchen noise down they could've done better. While they tried to keep an upscale vibe, I feel they could've done more by clearing the table without the use of a tub which collected all the items from the table. In summary, food is good, place is ok for the price.

Shoutout to the manager who cut the wrapped shrimp food item with scissors automatically (thank you!) so I could eat it easier!

I can't say what caused it, but it definitely looked strange The rice noodle roll, spare ribs, and chicken feet were okay, but nothing special

This is the closest I've had to modern Chinese cuisine in Boston so far. Swing Pork Belly 晾衣白肉: My first time trying Lizhuang pork belly, I'd heard so much about it! The pork belly was sliced ​​very thinly, chilled to perfection, and served with refreshing cucumber slices--not greasy at all. The minced fresh garlic was a bit too spicy for me, but the chili oil was very fragrant, making it very flavorful overall. Yibin Style Ran Noodles 宜賓燃麵: Another first time trying this, how could noodles be so delicious... The alkaline noodles were thin and firm, with a great texture; the flavor was oily, savory, and slightly spicy, with a delightful sweet aftertaste--fragrant but not greasy. The cucumber shreds added to the overall refreshing taste. Green Pepper Mao Xue Wang 青一色毛血旺: My first time trying Maoxuewang with green peppers, and it was surprisingly fresh and clean, with a medicinal aroma. The spiciness was only mild, and it wasn't oily at all. The ingredients were good: the pig's blood and konjac were smooth and chewy, the pork aorta was crisp and springy, the celtuce were crisp, and the eel shreds were chewy and crunchy--a very rich selection. Spicy Frog Lover 舌尖上的蛙跳: Relatively average. It had the classic Sichuan boiling flavor, but the broth was almost like it had been thickened with cornstarch; the frog meat was a bit firm, not tender; and the pickled vegetables were too acidic.

Mountain House was a solid Sichuan meal. We ordered the sliced beef and tripe in chili oil, Sichuan…read moreboiled beef, and Chongqing style spicy chicken. Everything came out flavorful, spicy, and packed with that numbing Sichuan peppercorn kick. The spicy chicken was probably my favorite crispy, well seasoned, and loaded with dried chilies. The boiled beef had a rich, spicy broth and was great with rice. The beef and tripe appetizer was also really good and had a nice balance of chili oil, sesame, peanuts, and that signature mala flavor. Portions were generous and the food definitely delivered if you're looking for authentic, bold Sichuan flavors. Overall, a very good meal and somewhere I'd come back to.

Also tried the Singapore noodles, lamb dish, green beans and fried rice (for a party of five) and each dish was perfect. The menu is fairly expansive so you'll have many options to choose from.

We ordered all the traditional shanghainese dishes and it's pretty decent. However, the 小笼包 skin is too thick. 红烧肉 was pretty good, and my favorite was the 上海炒面。 Service was alright too. We got a couple coupons for a nearby bakery when paying so that was nice.

We ordered: Beijing Roasted Duck - Flavor was good but can be improved. Skin could be crispier and meat a less dry. Honestly surprised this is "half" a duck as there wasn't much meat. I feel like it's a quarter of the duck. I like that they gave perfect amount of wraps, cucumbers and green onion to pair with it. You have to eat it with hoisin sauce, the OG way. Not sure why they provided the other sauce - my friend and I didn't even touch it. String beans with sesame salt - Would not order again. There is a fermented taste to it. General Tso Chicken - Barely spicy but so good. Must order!

We were five people and we shared the following: - papaya salad - bokchoy - Brussel sprouts - pan roasted salmon - nasi goreng - pork bao buns - pork and chive dumplings I can't even pick which ones were my fave (maybe the nasi goreng) but they all complemented each other so well. Don't skip the dessert!! Cocktail was insane as well, had the bloodlust which had a nice spicy kick to it. Coming back soon for more. Service was quick and they gave us a birthday cake on the house for friend's bday!

Myers+Chang is a modern Asian-inspired restaurant that blends flavors from across East and…read moreSoutheast Asia into a menu built around small, shareable plates. We walked into a space with an energetic atmosphere, an open kitchen, a lively dining room, and a contemporary design that makes the restaurant feel both casual and polished. The layout encourages ordering several dishes for the table, and the variety across the menu makes it easy to build a meal that feels different with each visit. The small plates are the biggest draw because they let you try a wide range of flavors without committing to a single entrée. The pork belly buns are one of the signature dishes, featuring tender pork inside soft steamed buns with a balance of sweet and savory flavors. The dan dan noodles are another standout with their rich, spicy sauce, while the Brussels sprouts have developed a strong following thanks to their crispy texture and bold seasoning. We also appreciated that many dishes are available as half portions, making it easier to sample more of the menu without ordering too much food. The menu offers a good balance between familiar favorites and more creative dishes, with each plate feeling thoughtfully prepared and packed with flavor. There are also plenty of vegetarian and vegan options, making it easy for groups with different dietary preferences to find something they enjoy. The service matched the pace of the restaurant during our visit. The staff were attentive, dishes came out steadily as they were ready, and the servers were helpful with recommendations for building a meal around multiple small plates. The restaurant stays busy throughout the evening, so making a reservation is a good idea, especially for dinner or larger groups. Myers+Chang is one of the better places in Boston for creative Asian-inspired small plates. The combination of bold flavors, shareable portions, lively atmosphere, and consistently strong service makes it a restaurant that is easy to return to, especially if you enjoy trying a variety of dishes instead of ordering a traditional entrée.

I was really excited to try this place, and the disclaimed for this review is that we got take out…read moreinstead of eating it fresh in the restaurant. I tried the stir fried rice cake that everyone was raving about, and it's good, but it's not unlike something that i've had before. The rice cake is chewy, there was nothing amiss with the dish, but it just seems like a normal rice cake stir fried with egg/tomato. I also tried the Dali fried mushroom and I really enjoyed the seasoning, but it is a little dry if that's not your style. It's similar to a mushroom jerky. The yongpi braised chicken was flavored well, but I felt that some pieces were a little dry. The small pieces were overcooked. Lastly, there was also a beef w/ stir fried noodles which was fine but just a pretty standard stir fried noodles with beef. They were very quick with preparing the food for takeout, and everything was well packaged! I'd be interested in trying some of their other dishes since I feel that Yunnan cuisine is not common and there are plenty of other options I'd be interested in.

Service is good. Attentive and friendly. Nothing really much to say about them. But the food. Always every dish that comes out it's either too salty, or plain, or just horrible. Especially that fried mushroom. It tastes like it's from a bag or something. Tried one piece and done. Fried tofu dish. Too much soy bean paste sauce. Tastes way too salty! Ground pork with Tomatoe sauce. There is weird taste and hardly and meat. Lemon shredded chicken got some bad aftertaste. Like they didn't marinate or seasoning the chicken enough. Prolly my fav was the rice and tomato beef brisket. A little plain but that is prolly the dish I ate the most because I was hungry. And the dessert coconut toast... tasted like watered down coconut and 3 piece of fried bread cutted. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this place if they don't step up their game! Just mostly bad. Bad enough I have to write this lengthy review.

A dinner with my Korean friends revealed my current favorite Chinese restaurant in Boston!…read more Soup Steamed Dumplings Pork 小籠包: The dumplings were large, incredibly juicy, and the meat filling was tender and smooth. The seasoning was only slightly sweet, perfectly complementing the freshness of the meat. These were the best Xiaolongbao I've had in the US, although the skin was a bit soggy and unappetizing. Pork & Leeks Dumpling: My friend ordered these, opting for pan-fried dumplings. They were piping hot, incredibly fragrant, and the meat filling was tender. The chive flavor was mild, which is perfect since I don't like chives lol. A touch of vinegar was definitely needed to cut through the richness! Sliced Fish Szechuan Style: Calling them "sliced fish" is a bit of a stretch; "fish fillets" would be more accurate. They were probably made with basa fish, and the fish was incredibly tender, almost melting in your mouth. The broth was fragrant, and the numbing and spicy flavor was authentic, earning high praise from my friend from Sichuan. Lamb with Ginger & Scallions Onion: A perfectly good Beijing dish, but it was prepared with the feel of a Cantonese stir-fry, which suited my Cantonese palate perfectly. The lamb was incredibly tender, with no gamey taste, and stir-fried until the oil was visible but the sauce wasn't thickened. The sweetness of the onions and carrots added to the complex flavor. Sweet and Sour Pork Tenderloin: Just average, like a typical Shanghai style home-cooked meal. Nothing special to say. General Gao's Tofu 左宗豆腐: My first time trying the famous "General Tso" (I don't know why they call it General Gao) series of American Chinese cuisine. It felt similar to the technique used in Shanghainese "Kung Pao宮保." A slightly sweet and sour flavor with the aroma and mild spiciness of dried chili peppers, the ingredients were deep-fried and coated in a thick sauce. The tofu was overcooked, the edges were hard, and the sauce became a bit watery towards the end. This dish was just okay.

Even though it was a lunch special, I was actually really happy with the portion size. A normal container of rice and separate container of the entree. The biggest issue was the taste. It was just muted and kind of bland. The sauce also had a really oily, almost slimy consistency. It kept separating, so there was a layer of oil on top and the sauce underneath. A lot of the time, it honestly felt like I was just eating oil instead of sauce. The rice was great tho- really fluffy and soft. Cooked perfectly
