Been here a few times with coworkers for dim sum. Pretty good!
Tried chicken feet at a coworkers behest, was tasty.

We won’t be returning to this place. The food was overpriced considering the quality. Despite being a group of four, we were only given one menu, and when we politely asked for another, the staff questioned us and responded with an unfriendly attitude. They even forgot part of our order, despite the restaurant being far from busy—only three tables were occupied. To top it off, they pressured us into leaving a generous tip despite the poor service. Overall, a very disappointing experience.

This is the first meal we had when we were in Boston. Food was tasty and the price is reasonable. However, the service was pretty bad, servers were rude and refused to provide plastic plate and fork for our two year old toddler upon asking. The restaurant is small and they place tables so close it was very cramped. Overall not a great experience.

The restaurant was quite busy, and they have a communal seating arrangement, so you'll likely be sharing tables with strangers. It's a small spot, and unlike traditional dim sum places where cart ladies bring a variety of dim sum to choose from, here you order directly from a menu. While the atmosphere is lively, the dim sum felt overpriced for what was ultimately just average quality.

Winsor Dim Sum Café – A Dim Sum Gem in Boston Chinatown

We tried Winsor Dim Sum Café recently, and honestly, it hit all the right notes. If you’re looking for solid, authentic dim sum in Boston’s Chinatown, this place is a winner.

We weren’t here for the ambiance—just came for the food, and it delivered. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and came out fast. The service was great too—friendly and super efficient, which isn’t always the case with dim sum spots.

We ordered a bunch of dishes: shiu mai, fried rice, several kinds of bao, and other classic dim sum staples—and every single thing was delicious. The bao especially stood out: soft, warm, and packed with flavor. My family, who lived in China for a few years, was impressed and said it tasted like the real deal. That’s a pretty strong endorsement.

We’ve tried a few other spots in Chinatown, but Winsor stands out for three things: the taste, the speed, and the service. Definitely adding this to the go-to list when we’re craving dim sum.

Ordering for a small group of people is fine but ordering for a bunch is hectic. the way you order is hard since you tick things off on a piece of paper. other than that everything was amazing. food was really good and came quickly

Delicious dim sum and everything came out fresh and hot. All the classic dim sum items are a must try. Highly recommend

The food here is pretty good too. I can't say it's the best, but is the taste somewhat acceptable?

Simple good food in Chinatown. Good portions. Be careful when paying, and review your bill for over charges such a tea when no tea is ordered.

Food was great, but yes there are undisclosed food charges, such as pot of tea that they serve immediately upon seating, which felt a bit dishonest.

This place is also CASH ONLY, and we didn’t know since there was little mention of it.

We had an incredible experience. Coming in right before they shut the kitchen, they were very hospitable and let us make the last order for the evening. They proceeded to bring out complementary extra food that we had not ordered. The chef himself brought them out. The hospitality was over the top. It was a great place to have dinner with my mom. Thank you!

Great food! Just a heads up though: If you're splitting a check, be careful! The server made my friend and I do 15% tip EACH. We were originally gonna do 7.5% each but they were like "No each check needs 15% tip" which kind of rubs me the wrong way. They managed to get more tip out of us this way.
