Pretty good comfort food. Had their beef clay pot— while it was mild in flavor the overall dish was good. Tight seating but tolerable.

I went to this place for dinner two days in a row. Rice soup with seafood was delicious. Other dishes were also very satisfying. The only downside may be the small space and very limited capacity. It gets very busy during the dinner time. If you find no room when arriving, do not leave. Stay and wait for your table. It's not slow. It's worth the wait .

This place serves incredible, authentic Guangdong (Canton) style food. The Clay Pot Rice (煲仔饭) is a definite must-get. However, the Black Pepper Beef Noodles (黑椒意粉) stole the show, easily a 5/5 and one of the best versions I’ve had, even compared to noodles I've had in Asia. Be aware that the space is small with limited seating, but the wonderful service and the food makes it absolutely worth the visit

The food is delicious, but the seating space is pretty limited with only a few tables available.

I've been coming here when I'm in town for the last 5 years. Quality has been maintained, and now they have vegetarian claypot options too!
I've had their minced pork patty claypot, their sausage+preserved meat claypot, their salted fish + chicken claypot and their vegetarian claypot.
My preferred ones would be the minced pork patty claypot or the vegetarian claypot! You can also get add-ons, or if with a larger party, get a full plate of vegetables. Their doumiao (peashoots?) were fresh and tasty

We ordered three dishes for take-out. The steamed rice with eel, sausage, and bacon was absolutely disappointing. It cost $37, and 90% of it was just rice. The eel was dry and tasteless, the sausage was mediocre, and the bacon was basically all fat.
For the ginger and scallion lobster ($32), instead of getting all lobster, there was crab mixed in.
Overall, it’s not worth the price. I do not recommend it at all.
I ordered three takeout dishes online, including steamed rice with eel. What I received were two bowls packed with rice, about five pieces of eel, a few sausage slices, and a bunch of pork fat. What’s even more absurd is that it cost 37 bucks. My guess is that the chef intentionally lowered the quality of the takeout orders. I’ll never eat at this restaurant again since it clearly lacks integrity.

The food is good, but it’s not friendly for people don’t know Mandarin.
The menu translation doesn’t translate well.
The English menu “sautéed chicken” BUT they will give you chicken hearts, gizzards, liver…
When I asked the owner regarding this, she only responded it is what it is.

I ordered eel and Chinese sausage clay pot rice and added 7 dollars for extra eel. And here is what I got. I asked them if they forgot about the extra eel, they said no this is with the extra. Without, there would have been only 5 pieces of eels. Well, either I’m outdated about the Boston price or I’m scammed here. Either way, I’m not happy that I spent 30 dollars on a weekday lunch and was still hungry.
I went to Su Su Gourmet later to pick up a steamed rice roll since I’m still hungry. Would much recommend this place instead! My friend told me they have awesome clay pot rice too!

Nice little chinese food in chinatown. Not many seats, may be 6-7 tables. Not crowd during weekday lunch, easily get seat for me.
Clay pot rice is good, hot and crispy. Chicken with bone, meat with fat.
