Food was ready as promised and order was correct. Food was very bland. Chicken wings were very dry, and so was the boneless pork. They definitely did not taste fresh. Crab rangoon was the only winning dish. We also got duck sauce, but no soy or mustard. Also no fortune cookies!

I ordered honey walnut shrimp and they brought me a plate of shrimp slathered in mayonnaise. It was repulsive, and they refused to give me something else or take it off the bill. The waitress was useless as she was eating dinner herself and couldn't be bothered to check on me at all and left me waiting for the check for 45 mins. Also the place is filthy and needs a good douching. The cobwebs on the drapery looked like a second set of curtains hanging in the windows.

They don’t skimp on meat!! Got the beef chow foon and when it came to the table, we were wondering where the noodles were. Lots of beef on the plate, very yum but a bit flavorless. I added sweet soy sauce to it and chili oil and it made it much better.
Their dim sum is about $7 each which seems a bit pricey but it’s worth it when you see the size of each dumpling. Like I said, they don’t skimp! Enjoyed everything we ordered.

Chow Chow Restaurant has a big dining room and a family-friendly vibe. The food is decent, and the waitstaff are friendly. However, some people find the management a bit rough. The bathrooms and lobby could use some updating, and their online ordering system isn't the best. It's a solid option for a casual meal, but don't expect anything fancy. It's conveniently located right off the highway, making it easy to get to from anywhere in the Boston area.

The place is very clean, the staff is well attended. They serve too much food. What we ordered was Lo mai, I don't know if it's written like that but it's Spaghetti or noodles. My husband ordered it with shrimp. He didn't like the shrimp and I ordered Spaghetti with vegetables. The vegetables were good, the Spaghetti were angel hair, I didn't like the flavor, they were good but I didn't like the texture.
Went there for Dim Sum and the restaurant is looking rather run down. There were not many people there. Was expecting a bigger crowd. We got served and seared fast vs how I had remember when I went to the one in Boston Chinatown which had now closed down ☹️
The authenticate plates with their logo is still there remnants of how majestic and grand they were when they had both Boston and Dorchester running!
The food quality also had dropped. I felt the Dim Sum was not hot enough and became cold quickly. The taste was not how I remember either. Quality has dropped and the prices has gone up.
Overall I have had better Dim Sum in Quincy.
Parking: They are adjacent to a shopping strip mall and has a lot of parking space

Went here for a wedding and wow was the service horrendous. Asked for water and was told to get it from outside. The staff cutting the cake decided that it was too much so they just cut random size and plop it on a single plate for a table to share. Food was alright. The place is a bit run down.

The staff are really nice and you get table Quick, their dim sum is delightful and always come to the table hot. They have a good price, not too expensive. I love this place and would definitely go again!
