This was my SPOT when I lived in Boston. It was the first place in Boston that served great Taiwanese food (they opened in 2015-ish), and it remained my go-to until I left Boston in 2023. I miss them very much, I hope they’re doing well!

My go-tos were fried chicken on rice, popcorn chicken, beef noodle soup, spicy wontons
July 2025
Cozy, homey atmosphere. Refreshing to go this small-town feel family-owned restaurant. Friendly staff, home style cooking, and nice Taiwanese cuisine variety. Felt like a restaurant in the good old days.
June 2025
The food was really good with great portion sizes — very worth it for the price. The family who runs the restaurant is really nice and sweet and even gave us free milk tea after our meal. The pig trotters were so tender I could cut it with a spoon and would definitely recommend the popcorn chicken. Would definitely go again!
