39 Best Asian Fusion Restaurants near Brookline

“Decided to go out for dinner with a few friends and it was delicious. I liked the citrus dressing on the avocado salad. The filet mignon was tender and flavorful. For dessert, green tea ice cream is a must!“

“It was our first time here. Sushi was great. Staff was also very pleasant. The restaurant itself was a very nice environment nice seating and lighting. The presentation of the sushi was amazing! It came in a beautifully designed boat steaming with dried ice and beautiful decorations! They had a pretty decent size menu. Absolutely going back.“

“Don’t be fooled by the somewhat outdated interior and hole in the wall feel. The focus here is on the food!

Good quality fish, creative rolls, and efficient service. The price-to-value ratio can’t be beat. Tastes that much better with the reasonable prices. Note that you can tell the fish is not top-notch quality, but it hits all the right notes for an everyday sushi craving. Some rolls are more outstanding than others. My favorite so far was one that incorporated crunchy tempura bits into the minced tuna topping (forgot the name!).

We loved our recent visits so much that we’re getting platters from here for a holiday party. I’m pretty sure they’re going to be a hit.“

“Great food ! 🧡✨ quick responses“

“Very flavorful! I first had the bibimbap which was super yummy! Definitely go for the lunch specials--great value and excellent opportunity to try out other dishes. I upgraded to the combo which had 2 crab rangoon and a drink for $2 more.“

“Asia Mei is easily one of the best Chefs in Boston. I've eaten here several times, but I can't believe that I haven't written a review before now! My husband and I had brunch at moonshine 152 last weekend and told friends about it. Next thing you know, the four of us were in there around noon time today having brunch again. We shared three starters, alongside sharing all four entrées and everything, I mean everything was to die for! Ms Asia herself delivered some of our plates and she is just as delightful as she is talented. Needless to say, dinner is amazing here as well. The vibe in the restaurant is so easy and you can tell that the staff get along very well together. What I can't believe is how this place wasn't fully packed today or last weekend even. Definitely a good amount of patrons, but I've had brunch at places that are hard to get into and left much less satisfied.“

“Went there for a corporate holiday gathering. The staff were terrific and it was such a fun, interesting chance to learn, laugh and connect with colleagues. Staff are so attentive, kind and patient. A wonderful place!“

“What a great first visit! Nicholas S. was absolutely wonderful – so attentive and kind throughout our meal. He patiently answered all our questions and was genuinely friendly, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. The food itself was excellent, and Nicholas really added to the positive vibe. We'll definitely be back!“

“Love the back bar and service was 10/10“

“The place might not look appealing on the outside but the food is awesome! One of the best places in the Downtown Boston to grab a business lunch.“

“the waiter was super nice helped me figure out what to eat considering never been there“

“Exceptional. They brine/marinate and don’t cheap out on labor. Each entree is well studied and executed - from a pro chef with limited ingredients. I hope they’ll maintain good quality for lower prices and gain volume- it’s perfect for work lunch takeout. 2x spices and time earns 10x returning guests. There’s a lot of business to grow.“

“extremely attentive staff, our meal was brought very promptly. bathroom could accommodate my wheelchair easily. we loved spending a special night there, and are already looking forward to our return visit“

“My husband (who is vegan) and I were in the Boston/Cambridge area for work and selected Base Crave for our first meal out. We met two people from his job and noticed that the place was empty except for us and the staff. That worried me, but after eating, my only thought was “people need to eat here! They don’t know what they’re missing!” The 4 of us ordered vegetarian mo mo (omg - yum!), vegetable samosas, chicken tikka masala (I didn’t try it but was told it was good), Tofu Mushroom stir-fry chilies mild which was okay, probably because we got it mild, Plantain curry (my hubby says fabulous!), plain naan (very good), and the Mushroom Stir-fry Noodles, mild. My husband and I agreed that the best things on the table were the Mo mo and the stir-fry noodles, both had fabulous flavor! We definitely recommend this place and would love to eat there again!“

“Burrito was delish. Crispy fries were awesome. Will be back again to try something else.“

“This is an intimate and rewarding eating experience. I have had lunch here 3 times, and not been disappointed once. Delicious and unusual items all through their expansive menu. For example I have had bitter mustard green soup, stuffef meat “sandwiches” that are more like pies, a crusty sweet potato “pancake” with seeds, sweet iced lavander latte, tofu dishes prepared wonderfully. The owners are friendly and appear to be managing a different kind of Asian fusion menu with an open mind, changing things up as they go. Because the previous tenant ran a pizza restaurant, they decided to offer Chinese pizza with unusual and original ingredients. Reasonably priced, parking availability in Huron Village might be the only drawback. Open every day of the wëek,
11am - 9:30pm.“

“I’m honestly glad that I waited to post my original review with a lower rating and thought through the experience a little bit more. As always, I find it a bit harder to review fusion spots. Not just any fusion either, but one that is all over the world map. It’s easy to just nitpick one dish and use it to judge everything else; but what about that is remotely fair?

For example, their Beef Rendang (a dish that I’m very familiar with - including the different regional renditions) is more like a hint towards what “real” Beef Rendang is. I don’t even need to speak on behalf of the Filipinos regarding their adobo (which I also grew up on) who are infamous to show up on public forums to criticize and say “that’s not how my grandmother makes it” (lol).

What did come to mind is the old quote that many often find negative but actually was meant to be a positive phrase (if the last part isn’t so often omitted). “Jack of all trades, master of none, though often times better than a master of one”.

That definitely applies here with their style of food. There’s a lot going on and a good portal to the true potential of each dish. Definitely give them a try! Portions are good and the food is definitely tasty!“

“Really good food and the waitresses are super cool and nice! The chef the waitress take a picture of how he does the spicy cucumbers (so good)! Everything I ordered was great, the lobster fried rice, salt & pepper wings & spicy cucumbers. Only thing I would suggest is more rice with the lobster fried rice. Besides that my time was excellent!“

“The food was savory and the service was fantastic and quick!“

“The best in Boston.“

“Awesome Dumplings!! Great Service!☺️“

“The food was super! We ordered the pork belly bao, butter beef spring rolls, kimchi fried rice, the beef curry mazemen, and the Shojonator with duck fat fries. Everything was great! The kimchi fried rice was so, so good! The beef curry was perfectly spiced! The spring rolls were clean and crunchy with a great sauce. The pork belly bao had perfectly matched components that worked so well! The duck fat fries were hot (temperature), seasoned well, and crunchy. The shojonator was really good and cooked perfectly. Everything here is great, if you want a good meal! It's worth the price!“

“Don’t ever order thru their website if you want delivery, it will never come and they’ll take so long to situate your order.. never again . They weren’t trying to give me my order at first so frustrating and ridiculous what I had to go through“

“Their beef dishes are amazing, so tender and full of flavor and the vegetables are well cooked, which I love as someone who never got used to salads. I admit that I almost always get the beef rendang because it just hits the spot, but on occasions when I have tried the other dishes, they have been good as well. I miss the octopus.“

“You could taste the freshness in the food, generous portions and very clean dining area. I recommend.“

“Delicious, quick, and great location. Couldn't ask for more.“

“A wonderful tiki bar! We loved the food and creative cocktails.“

“We have been ordering from Sono for many years, since they first opened. After a hiatus due to unrelated circumstances, we began ordering from Sono again and wondered why we ever stopped. The sushi is consistently fresh and prices are reasonable, and they outdo the larger name chains in the local area. Highly recommended.“

“They never disappoint Food is consistent never a bad meal Food presentation is A+ Staff very professional and very accommodating, making the whole experience even better !“

“You would never expect this to be such a cool restaurant from the street, but once you walk in the door you will love the charm and warmth. Everything about food was perfect. We had bibimbap ,fried chicken, Kimbap and kimchi fried rice and peach limeade. The service was super sweet…. Cannot beat a good waitress who brings a great attitude and had awesome recommendations.

We will be back soon!“

“Great place for lunch. The Pho is done perfectly and Vietnamese iced tea hits the spot. Seating area is small but no problem finding a place to sit. Dine-in or takeout options are available.

Highly recommend to anyone wanting some great noodles!“

“This was absolutely delicious! We enjoyed the option to build your own bowl and the unique drinks. Only comment my husband made was even though there were 2 guys in the kitchen (you can see into it), one of them was on his phone the whole time we were there not doing anything. They probably could've gotten orders done faster if they were both working...“

“Very good Ramen and crepes! They rly put a lot of effort in every dish!“

“Highly recommend the Thai basil limeade and especially the the tamarind tangle. Dined in for late lunch with a coworker, and our great experience (both food and customer service) were well worth coming back here for a review. Though seating options weren't overly abundant, there was no wait to order on the kiosks and we received our food quickly on a dreary Thursday at 1pm.“

“We love Mini Soup Dumpling with Pork (6 pieces), Seafood Noodles in Soup, Beef Basil Fried Rice, and Miso Soup today.
We loved the xiaolongbao, seafood noodle soup, nine-story pagoda beef fried rice and miso soup, and will come back to try the others in the future. Thanks!“

“Staff very friendly and attentive, we did have to ask about part of our order was as we had everything else for a bit of time just not our veggie we had ordered. Overall food was so good, service was great, very attentive and super nice. Highly recommend this place!!!!“

“Used to live in Boston, and we just stumbled into here on vacation. The bartender knew all of the history of the place telling us how it was a speakeasy, and even went downstairs to take a couple pictures for us. My new favorite bar, but I live in San Diego now. I will go back next year. Although it was tucked away on a side street, I will find it easily. I wish I could remember our bartenders name he was GREAT ! The night of September 16th 2025 .“

“I love their food jun our server she is great“

“We definitely enjoyed our meal! Pan seared pork bao and mala duck for appetizers. General Tso’s chicken and Grandma’s pork noodles for entrees. Good stuff! Kyle the bartender was awesome. We ate at the bar,“
