Sooooo good! It will not disappoint if you like pan fried buns!
Great option in Fenway! If you are going to watch the game and want a quick bite, this is the perfect place for southern Chinese food! Their pan fried Bao is very juicy!!!
Stopped by spontaneously for lunch. Delicious, hot, fresh.

Spring Shanghai Pan-Fried Buns is a bustling eatery in Boston, known for its delicious pan-fried dumplings and quick service. This popular spot is particularly favored by the local Chinese student community and is situated close to MFA Boston. The restaurant specializes in the Shanghai Classic Pork Pan-Fried Buns, which feature a perfectly thin and crispy dough filled with juicy pork and plenty of broth. Diners appreciate the chewy texture and light, crispy bottom of the buns, enhanced by fragrant chili oil and Zhenjiang vinegar.
In addition to the buns, the menu includes Shredded Pork & Preserved Vegetable Noodle Soup, although some reviews mention the noodles can be overcooked and lack flavor without the accompanying pickled mustard greens. The dumplings are consistently praised for their quality, with a warning to be careful on the first bite due to their hot and juicy fillings.
While the dining experience is informal, with disposable tableware and no mandatory tipping, the food remains affordable and satisfying. The restaurant is often busy, making it a great option for a quick snack, and diners can catch a glimpse of the dumpling-making process through the window. Outdoor seating is available during nice weather, adding to the appeal.
