Best dumplings I have had. The house dumpling sauce is really goooood too. I had the Korean beef, pepperoni pizza and soup dumplings. I regret not ordering more so I will be back probably tomorrow.

Good place to get your fix of Chinese food. Not the best I've ever had (i.e., lots of dishes are a bit too oily and the soup dumplings have thick skins), but it's nice to have a place in the Harvard and Central Square areas. Waitstaff service doesn't always make you feel welcome, but if you don't mind that, it's ok!
By far the best Chinese food I have had in Boston. Tastes authentic. Reminds me of home.

Go for: A bustling, no-frills Chinese food operation that pumps out traditional dishes at a breakneck pace.
Avoid if: You don't like ordering food for the table to share.
Something surprising: The chef that started this place originally led restaurants in Boston's Chinatown neighborhood.
Reservation needed? Not always, but it's not a bad idea. It gets extremely busy, especially when school is in session, and around mealtimes on the weekends.
Overall . It's astounding at how quickly they prepare food for a restaurant with this type of capacity. The food is reliable and the service is fast, efficient, and responsive. However, it's not the finest quality food and still has a bit of that "mass-produced" feel to it.

10/10 minus nothing. Best beef fried rice ever
Great place to eat dumplings! I especially loved the pork soup dumplings ♡
The seaweed soup warmed my soul and felt very nice.
The place was very busy so it is somewhat loud but don't let that dissuade you from coming here.
The staff was very attentive and kind.

Busy good joint, with dumplings as the highlight. Food is good but also not great. We enjoyed a few dumplings and fried chicken with sichuan pepper. Egg fried rice was good as well.

Delicious food with huge portions and no pretense. It's not fancy but I've never been let down by any dishes. The braised eggplant with basil is particularly delicious.
