“The food was great but the service and atmosphere is seriously lacking. We went on Fridays nights at dinner time twice and they clearly are doing to much takeout business to care about their dinner in guests. I won't return for dine in unless it's to try the lunch specials.“
“I don't know what the bad reviews and low scores are because I've eaten there many times, and the food is tasty, the service is great, it's clean and has lovely decor and the prices are good. I will continue to go back time and time again. For someone who really looks at reviews and judges places by the scores, it's sad when a place that is great has such low scores.“
“Grandma’s Kitchen is truly a hidden treasure! Their braised beef noodle soup is a culinary masterpiece that's worth traveling far and wide for. The harmonious blend of spice, acidity, and umami in the broth creates a tantalizing flavor experience. Each bite of the al dente noodles paired with tender, flavorful beef is pure delight.The popcorn chicken is another standout item—crispy, impeccably seasoned, and bursting with flavor.The service is both swift and welcoming, adding to the overall charm of the place. Getting a glimpse of Grandma herself in the kitchen adds an extra layer of authenticity and warmth.I can confidently say that I'll be making regular return visits to Grandma’s Kitchen—it's simply too good to resist!“
“My dining experience at Fuji at Newton was nothing short of spectacular! Right from the moment we walked in, the ambiance set a high expectation with its sleek, modern decor that felt both inviting and upscale. The lighting and music were perfectly set to create a warm and relaxing atmosphere, making it an ideal spot for both romantic dinners and family gatherings.The service was impeccable from start to finish. Our server was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu, offering recommendations that were spot on. It's rare to find a place where the staff is genuinely enthusiastic about their offerings, and this enthusiasm was infectious!Now, onto the star of the show - the food. Fuji at Newton offers an extensive menu that explores the rich flavors of Japanese cuisine with innovative twists that are both creative and delicious. We started with the Gyoza, which were perfectly pan-fried to a delightful crisp on the outside while remaining succulent on the inside. But the real game-changer was the sushi - each piece was a work of art, fresh and flavorful, with the sushi rice seasoned to perfection. The Dragon Roll and the Spicy Tuna Roll were particularly memorable, each bite bursting with freshness and complex flavors that danced on the palate.“
“This place is amazing! I’ve been here over 20 times and the food is consistently fantastic. Wait staff is so nice and professional. It’s hard to work at a place that typically gets one huge rush a day but they are so great and the food always shines.“
“This is some of the best sushi I’ve ever had. The fatty blue fin tuna is like wagyu of tuna (see picture). This type of cut is very rare.The place is not very big, with about 30 seats, so if it’s busy you may need to wait to be seated. Luckily the service is very fast and on-point. The chef (itamae) is super friendly and can create a-la-carte rolls.Super Fusion Sushi is now my favorite sushi place in the Boston area. Two thumbs up!!“
“Bayberry Cafe is packing up their Woburn bags and relocating to Cambridge. Their last day of service will be Mothers Day (May 14) 2023. Their new location will be called Ramen O Bowl and will be at: 1668 Massachusetts Ave Cambridge MA with an opening in the near future. Bayberry has been a wonderful community restaurant since they opened 6 years ago, bringing some of the most delicious vegan food to the North suburbs, but unfortunately it is their time to give another location a try.“
“POSITIVE: Good hot and sour soup. Good lunch options (food quantity and price). NEGATIVE: 1 person took our order, another person delivered the food to our table. No one came to check if everything was ok, or offer water refill. Kung Pao chicken was more sweet than spicy. Would not order again. Crab rangoon was overcooked and hard to eat. Went during a Saturday lunchtime. Very few customers until close to end of lunch special time. On-street parking, so limited by time of day and other business customers on the same street. It's a little "hole in the wall" place; easy to miss. In all fairness, I would try it once more to see if other dishes are better.“
“Tried take out this week from this spot: Sauteed Chicken W Long Horn Pepper In Scallion Pancake Roll - highly recommend Mini Juicy Buns W Pork(6) - very tasty Mala Spicy Beef - good - a lot of beef, prepare. Overall, very tasty items all around. I liked the mini pork buns and the scallion pancake rolls the most, but all probably worth a try based on experience with what I had.“
“Good Thai and Korean dishes served at this restaurant ?. Their menu offers many choices, from Japanese to Thai and Korean dishes. We ordered Thai dishes, and we prefer spicier foods. They didn't disappoint they were very tasty, just enough heat like we prefer ? .Well worth the try ?“
“I read a bunch of reviews before deciding to order from this place. Well.... The spicy basil pad Thai was really good that I forgot to take a picture before eating it. Lol. They gave large portion too! The coffee was good, it was a little sweet. The scallion pancakes were nice and crispy, the dipping sauce for it made it so much better. Definitely give this place a try! :)“
“We celebrated my brother's 20th wedding anniversary here and were extremely satisfied with the food, service and ambience. The food was delicious, with generous portion sizes and was served with an assortment of banchan. A great evening with family.“
“What can I say… we drive to this place from Cambridge and the service is just at the top! Those girl’s waiters are just fantastic. Efficient, kind and very very fast! The food is just amazing. They cook everything in a minutes. They truly respect your time and everything you ask for is right there with a smile and welcoming faces! Great family place! We love this place a lot!“
“Awesome local place. Consistently quick takeout. Or come sit at the bar for a drink and a Rangoon and a good time. One of the only lively places in Arlington ??♀️ They often have live music, and will let ya put whatever you want on the tv!“
“New Ginza is a true polished diamond, I have experienced few favorite-worthy restaurants like it.Menu items are delicious, from Chinese American and Japanese (gyoza, shumai) to the real gem dishes: the sushi. All of it. Everything is super clean and fresh, always, and beautifully done, with smoothly delivered service from every server.Go. Here.“
“After so many years, today is unexpectedly my first time here. The taste of this place is great, the portions are generous, and the service is top-notch. The dry-fried green beans, pork elbow, and loofah are all good choices. However, the sweet and sour mandarin fish is too sweet for my taste. For parking, you can try Pine St or Cresent St, but don't count on finding a spot on Moody St.“
“The food here is very good, the food is made to order and the service is very good. I prefer a lighter hand with less salt and cornstarch but I understand that their typical clientele expects a more experienced style. I appreciate fresh vegetables and beautiful service. Good value lunch specials with the option to upsize for just a few dollars.“
“I was here for lunch with a friend and we had quite a bit of catching up to do. We never felt rushed at any point. We finally ordered and the food was absolutely delicious and fresh. The lunch boat was incredible and almost too much for me! Everyone here is super friendly and accommodating. We will definitely be back!“
“Just ordered luncheons Sushi fresh and delicious with a generous amount of sushi, miso soup and a salad. Also got luncheon with chow Mein came with wonton soup and crab Rangoon. Veggies were crunchy and light, fried rice was fresh. Good value and considerately packaged. Very fresh. Highly recommend this place.“
“They have sweet rice drinks and yogurt/fruit flavored drinks. Although, they don't offer boba, they go for a more traditional and less sweet taste. The sour yogurt brings me back home to the taste of the yogurt I used to have back in Beijing. I wish Yomie's was more centralized in Allston with the other businesses, but glad they are in Boston nevertheless.“
“Gen sushi is our go-to neighborhood sushi joint. They provide high quality sushi with notably larger pieces of fish than competing restaurants in the area. We particularly enjoy the way they prepare nigiri! They have friendly and welcoming staff and we appreciate their early opening time of 4 PM.“
“Enjoyed our dining experiences here. The service is excellent, the hostess very willing to help us accommodate dietary issues. It's a bit of a drive for us, but well worth it.Parking: Lot is generally full as there are a couple other restaurants here. Look in the back of the lot, you're likely to find a spot there.“
“I had to come back and update my review -- Shine's has changed, and I think it's great. I hadn't been here since pre-COVID, but a few months ago my family decided to give it another try, and we've been back regularly ever since. The menu is almost completely different from what it was back in 2017: they are focused on authentic dishes, and doing it very well. I wish I'd come back sooner! The menu contains a lot of choices that aren't typical, but are very tasty. We particularly like the Rougamo sandwiches (listed on the menu as "burgers", but that's not exactly how I would describe them) and the "pancakes" (more like stuffed crepes, sort of), particularly the shredded potato pancakes. The soups are also excellent and unusual. And there are still areas of the menu we haven't explored at all. (I have no idea what "Toofy" is... guess I'll have to try it.) My only (minor) complaint is that you order at a kiosk (or online, for take-out) so you can't ask the waiter/waitress for any info/recommendations.“
“I had a large combination pho for take-out. It was very good and had all ingredients I expected, with good meat. They are nice. The atmosphere is peaceful with pleasant music in the background. The price is a great deal; I paid much more at another place in Woburn. If I lived closer I'd go here every week as I guess they also have Thai food. You can't usually park right in front; close to lunchtime I just parked close by on E. Nichols (the street where the fire station is).“
“Best Thai place around the Tewksbury/Wilmington area. Always great service and the food is INCREDIBLE! The atmosphere really helps you enjoy the food as I'm always feeling relaxed. Make sure to check this place out if you're close by!“
“The buffet is killer. It's a lunch buffet. Lots and lots of choices. Somewhat, I think, or authentic Chinese choices as well. It was packed when we got there and food was still fresh and hot. I will add, it's two dollars cheaper here than it is in the Burlington restaurant. What gives with that?“
“Good food, decent prices and good service. Went here few weeks back to meet up with friends so we were a group of 7 people. Initially we sat at one of the long tables but soon after everyone arrived they gave us one of the round tables with the lazy susan rotating center. We ordered a bunch of dishes - kung pao chicken, MaPo tofu, a lamb dish that came in a pot, beef dish, squash dish, a green leafy vegetable dish, and a couple other dishes none in total plus steamed white rice and green tea. There was a lot of food and it was all very good and tasty. Meats were tender and flavorful. We were quite satisfied and full with all the food! We also got some leftovers to bring home lol! Parking was easy as they have parking. Also was easy to find this place not too hard. Will come here again if we're in the area.“
“What a charming couple that runs this place. The food, reception and service are great. They give you a heads up that gratuity is charged automatically for 4 and above. Food is freshly made and cater to vegetarian/vegan options. The portions are large enough to satisfy your hunger without making you feel queasy. Flavor are balanced. Definitely recommend them. Even ensured ingredients I was allergic to was not included.Vegetarian options: Highly recommend the cashew dish. Pad Thai is sweeter than expected.“
“Taste, quality, presentation and service are excellent. Love their large menu. I've had their traditional Chinese appetizers. Pickled and hot pot rice noodles are excellent taste and portion. Claypot rice noodles are packed with great flavor.“
“I've been to plenty of Japanese restaurants, so my expectations are very high. This place exceeded them and more! Great lunch combination options and flavorful miso, but the real star here is an extensive list of unique signature sushi rolls -- including options I've never even seen at any other sushi place. They have pictures of these specialties, as well as extensive descriptions, and our server did a good job of providing further explanations and recommendations. We had an unbelievably delicious lunch, and seriously considered coming back for dinner! The location is a little bit difficult to get to, but that's a small price to pay for such a hidden gem. Do yourself a favor and give this place a try, you won't be disappointed!“
“They have the best sushi I've ever eaten in any way in Massachusetts I have tried other locations and I'm actually not a big fan of seafood so I like the cooked sushi but I do love their shrimp tempura and they're Nagi Sushi is so good too. Oh you definitely got to try to Alligator sushi too I didn't know it was topped with you but for the first time I ate it it was really delicious. Like I said I'm not a type of person to really eat seafood and I love this place“
