50 Best Asian Restaurants near Medford

“Food is great and the staff is great especially the bartenders!“

“amazing food. INCREDIBLE service. can not say enough good things about my experience there last night.“

“I had been following this restaurant for a long time since I came to Boston area, so I was so excited to be there. As “Uncle Roger” says, “not bad, not bad!”

Creamy Tum Yum Noodle Soup: The Tum Yum soup broth was exactly authentic. It provided a strong taste of both tangy and spicy, exciting my taste buds and increasing my appetite. As for the ingredients, shrimps were fresh and bouncy, char-siu slices were crunchy but not greasy, while the lime added extra zing to the soup.
But to be frank, unfortunately I could still taste the gamey smell from the refrigerated pork, even though it had been that heavily seasoned.“

“This place is a hidden gem! The food is absolutely delicious, and the popcorn chicken is the GOAT. The chicken cutlet was fresh, crispy, and cooked perfectly, and the vegetables were surprisingly good too. The owner makes you feel like family the moment you walk in. It’s the kind of restaurant that makes you excited to come back and bring friends along!“

“I think the recent negative review must've been a bot / AI (maybe some jealously going on there). Either way- Darling is an incredible bar with great product and friendly service. I would not be surprised to see them win some major awards next year. As a new establishment, Darling is absolutely crushing it and I am so happy to welcome them in Central Square. Cocktails are refined, balanced and interesting. Clarification techniques assure everything is smooth and refreshing. The enoki bao are things of dreams. Coursing allows for fun conversation between dishes with a date or friend.. Darling team thank you for everything you do! You are a wonderful presence and important place in the Boston cocktail scene :)“

“Awesome Dumplings!! Great Service!☺️“

“Thank you Alan and Lotus Xpress for catering my husband's surprise 50th birthday party. Alan, you were wonderful to work with during the planning process- providing options and tending to all the details. The food was AMAZING! Delicious and a great variety. The day of the event, it was such a relief to have you there- catering to our 75 guests. As the host of the party, it gave me great ease knowing you were tending to the buffet and I was able to relax and tend to the guests! The food made the event. Thank you for helping make the event a success!“

“My family had a wonderful dinner at Mae’s last night. The service was efficient, attentive without being obtrusive and warm. The food was excellent, flavorful, balanced, light. We had number of dishes…pork gyoza (we went back for 2nds on this one), spring rolls, basil fried rice (nice spice level…maybe a little more oil than needed), ma po tofu, general Tso’s Thai chicken, and pad Thai (the star of the show). The mocktails were fresh and complex. Will be back. Oh we made a reservation. Highly recommend doing so.“

“The food at Fuji is outstanding. Far and away the best fusion Japanese food in Newton and around.“

“Great food and service equals great value!!“

“King Do has recently moved to a new location, and the space is now much larger, cleaner, and more airy. The menu still offers a wide variety of options, and the food remains just as delicious and affordable as before. The highlights for me are definitely the pennywort drink and the mung bean milk—both are refreshing and a must-try.“

“Found this place on Google & Pinterest. So glad we gave it a try. The chicken corn soup was sweet and delicious, we had pork and cabbage dumplings, spring rolls, hot tea, fried rice and kimchi. It was all delicious. I don’t use chop sticks so they brought me a fork. Would highly recommend this place it was busy but we don’t have to wait long for a table and they had a steady line of to go orders going out as well.“

“I recently visited this restaurant and had a wonderful experience. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was very welcoming. What really made our visit special was the excellent service from our waitress, Karen. She was very friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. Karen’s positive attitude and professionalism made the experience even better. I would definitely come back and highly recommend this place, especially because of the great service we received from her. 😊“

“Restaurant is has cozy and chill vibe. Staff is very friendly. The Biang Biang noodles are the star of the show! Super flavorful and great dough texture, taste very homemade. Meat pie is good too, almost as good as in China. The garlic crawfish bursts with flavor, they make it fresh from live crawfish so take a little more time. The pork belly with preserved veggie is way too sweet but meat is super tender so I took it home and ran it through hot water bath twice to get it to be less sweet😅“

“Love the place, especially Kevin, the bartender. Good service, friendly atmosphere, this is where we celebrate friends birthdays and other celebrations“

“very good food decent price . will return for more...“

“I loved the beef tataki and spring roll!! I will definitely be going back!“

“As someone who has had the privilege of dining at some extraordinary Chinese and Japanese restaurants around the world, from Hong Kong to Tokyo to Manhattan, I can say without hesitation that this is the finest Chinese and Japanese food in all of Massachusetts. The ingredients are exceptional, the preparation is thoughtful, and the consistency is remarkable. Restaurants like this are rare.

We even brought our chef Tracy here one evening. She’s worked in several Michelin-starred kitchens and spent years cooking in private estates and luxury hotels. And she was completely blown away. She kept commenting on the quality of the fish and the balance of the dishes, which says a lot coming from someone who cooks professionally at that level.“

“I got take out poke bowls and they were both really delicilious. I got my partner the ahi tuna bowl on salad. He said it was really tasty, but the salad was just big chunks of lettuce and not cut up quite right. That was the only negative remark. I got a build your own bowl with tofu and shrimp tempura with corn, seaweed salad, avocado, and edamame with spicy mayo. It was SO GOOD! The person behind the counter was so nice. I will absolutely be back often.
The inside might not look super fancy and what not, but it's worth the try.“

“never had a bad bite here. Their ramen is killer. Tiny place, but worth waiting for a table!“

“We’ve been here multiple times, both for takeout and dine-in and the food is always outstanding and fresh. We’ve tried many different things on the menu, both sushi and Chinese food and everything is great. There is no reason to try any other restaurant- we’ve found our go-to place!!“

“Bangkok Bento is a cozy Thai restaurant that blends Thai dishes with sushi, giving it a slightly different feel from a traditional Thai spot. The space has a warm and comfortable atmosphere with a smaller dining room that feels more intimate, making it a nice option for casual dinners or meeting up with friends. The mix of Thai food and sushi also makes it a good choice when a group wants different types of dishes without having to pick just one cuisine.

The menu has a wide range of Thai classics, noodles, curries, and sushi options. The pad thai is a solid choice with a good balance of peanut flavor and sauce, while the drunken noodles bring more bold flavors with a slightly savory and spicy profile. The khao soi stands out as one of the more interesting dishes, with a rich curry broth and noodles paired with crispy chicken for a nice contrast in textures. The crispy duck mango curry is another highlight, combining sweet mango flavors with the richness of the curry and crispy duck. Portions are generous, so it’s easy to order a few dishes and share.

The appetizers and desserts also add a lot to the experience. The mango sticky rice is a great way to finish the meal, especially when the mango is fresh and sweet. Drinks like Thai tea are a nice pairing, though sweetness levels can vary depending on what you order. The sushi side of the menu gives the restaurant more variety, though the Thai dishes feel like the stronger focus.

Service is friendly and welcoming, and the overall experience feels relaxed. The restaurant has a comfortable pace that works well for a sit-down meal rather than a quick bite. The staff helps create a casual neighborhood feel, making it easy to settle in and enjoy a longer meal.

Overall, Bangkok Bento is a great option when you’re looking for flavorful Thai food in a comfortable setting with plenty of variety. Between the noodles, curries, crispy dishes, and desserts, there’s enough on the menu to keep coming back and trying something new. It’s especially good for groups where everyone wants something different.“

“Mi Soul is a great miso soup ramen, the pork is esp tender and generous.Ten Yum was solid, very simple(just noodle and shrimp) and was mild/medium spicy.Poke was good, fish was very clean tasting, and a good amount of rice. I only wish they had spicy mayo as an option, more Seaweed or furikake for crispyness, and a little more cabbage to go with the large amount of rice. Great to have the option given the other poke spots are about a mile away.“

“I think people that are complaining here are overly privileged and don't appreciate the little things let me tell you why. I'm not saying there feelings don't matter but I am struggling in this state, and can't cook at the moment so to get some "nutrients I ordered a pizza from here that would have garlic, parsley etc and I instantly felt better! The pizzas were so good. As someone who lost a lot of family, I'm not going to bicker about pizza. I thought it was delicious. My boyfriend ordered the medium size and it had lots of cheese. We will order from yall again thank you for your service!“

“Very fresh ingredients. Grab and go sushi plus freshly made sushi. Crispy, refreshing Moshi sparkling Yuzu. Decent portion for a reasonable price. Friendly and accommodating staff. All utensils neatly provided. Outlets at tables for convenient phone/device charging. Plentiful poke bowls too. 10/10. Go there.“

“Treat you like family Food is amazing“

“One of the few newer spots in Brookline Village that seems like it's going to be a great lunch option. There are a few bar stools and a counter but more of a grab and go style. We took ours to the picnic tables across the street in front of the library.

We ordered
-Fruity Oolong Tea with Lychee Jelly
-Fruity Lemonade with Mango
-Chicken Katsu Burg with Mala Spicy Sauce
-Bulgolgi Steak Burg with House Fries

The staff was very polite and was able to make recommendations to our taste. The food took about 10 minutes to prepare and tasted fresh.

We really enjoyed the seasoning on the house fries and are excited to come back and try the bowl versions as the flavors were great on both burgs.“

“I got take out at the Golden Ginger for the first time in years, the service was great and the food was all delicious and freshly made to order. I had stopped going there when I had started eating gluten free food, however, I just realized that they now have great gluten free options including my favorite, General Gau's chicken! Family members who don't eat gluten free loved the hot & sour soup, the spring rolls, the boneless honey ribs, and the beef and broccoli. I am definitely going to be going back to eat there as well as for take out. I highly recommend them!“

“we had 2 sushi rolls and a pi no grigio and a maitai all were greatm fresh sushi and a nice atmosphere. the place is very clean. service was great!“

“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 !“

“My wife and I came in for the first time tonight and were blown away by the food. The Legendary Burger absolutely lives up to the hype. Perfectly cooked, insanely flavorful, and easily one of the best burgers we’ve had in a long time. The General Lee’s Fried Chicken was also outstanding. Crispy, bold, and packed with flavor. The kitchen is clearly firing on all cylinders.

Amiel was our bartender and he was pleasant and professional. Service was straightforward and efficient, though we didn’t get much follow-up during the meal. That said, the food more than spoke for itself.

Such a great addition to the Seaport. We’ll be back.“

“My new go-to spot for late night Chinese food.

Saw these spots popping up around the GBA a couple of months ago. At first glance, I figured it was just another low-tier takeout-focused Chinese joint. But after catching one of their flyers, I decided to give it a shot.

The place seemed fairly new, and the cleanliness was definitely a step up from your average Chinese takeout spot. Their menu is a bit of a mash-up, featuring both Chinese dishes and sushi rolls, but I wasn’t quite ready to roll the dice on sushi from here. I stuck with the classics (Twice cooked pork, shumai, etc), and most things I tried were solid. Prices aren’t exactly a steal, but the portions are generous, and the staff have always been friendly.

Compared to the late-night spots in Chinatown that I used to go to, the real perk of Dumpling Garden is the hassle-free street parking. Sure, the ratings might not be high, but I would still recommend giving them a try.“

“food and service are awesome. friendly environment. great atmosphere!“

“Yesterday was the first time we came to that fine restaurant. But It is definitely not the last time. We had great time with the good service, with the exceptional food and wine and with the comfortable payment. We will surely visit there in a short time.“

“delicious poki bowls and creative poki burritos. Ramen was great too“

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

“I was impressed with everything! It was my first time trying ramen that didn’t come from my house and after being skeptical for so long I actually loved it! The service was amazing, the food was delicious - I tried the spicy ramen with chicken … and I definitely will be going back soon!!“

“Basic take out restaurant. No tables. Just counter to order. Very clean room and TV. Staff nice and knowledgeable to explain dishes. A few parking spaces out front of store however, ample street parking. Good Individual entree portions enough for two people. Good portions for plates as well, could feed two or have multiple meals for one. Have eaten here several times. Give it a try. Good neighborhood restaurant. Ordering for New Year very organized and efficient. Pllan your order and can't go wrong. Latest meal simple and checked all the boxes. Moo goo gai pan, super fresh vegetables, good pieces of chicken and very tasty sauce. Vegetable Rice, they use darker soy sauce, a surprising change, not sticky, seperate grains and good amount of vegetables. Boneless ribs, properly cooked, soft texture not dry, good size pieces, and some crisp edges.“

“Wide variety of very good food BUT, unless you speak Chinese, ordering by phone or even online is AGONY. They should hire a fluent high school kid.“

“Had a really great experience at Kowloon Restaurant with my mom. I don’t come here often because it’s super fancy, but it was definitely worth it. HUGE PORTIONS. Our waiter Chris (who works Sunday and Monday nights) was amazing: super nice, really funny, and made the whole experience even better. If you get Chris as your server, make sure to tip him well because he absolutely deserves it!“

“AMAZING FOOD & ATMOSPHERE!! The Mongolian Beef is incredible!!!!“

“Taste, quality, presentation and service are excellent. Love their large menu. I've had their traditional Chinese appetizers. Pickled and hot pot rice noodles are excellent taste and portion. Claypot rice noodles are packed with great flavor.“

“The most delicious Chinese food I’ve ordered in a long time! I ordered Crab Rangoon, french fries, and the House Special shrimp and chicken fried rice; everything was delicious. The prices were affordable, and the person who delivered my order was very friendly. You’ve become my favorite Chinese spot, Thank you!!!“

“the lunchbox meal was delicious! reasonable prices“

“Some places just surprise you… in the best way.

Tucked away in Cambridge, this one felt warm, inviting, and effortlessly comforting. The kind of spot where you sit a little longer, order a little more, and don’t regret any of it.

We tried Simply Surprise, Sakoo Sai Gai, Kuay Teow Lui Suan, Chicken on Fire 🔥 and Set Nam Prik… and every plate brought something special to the table.

Flavors that feel bold yet comforting, familiar yet exciting… all at once.

This is one of those places you save… and keep coming back to 💛“

“The food was delicious，I recommend this place。“

“this place is such a cute, amazing spot hidden behind a parking lot. Absolutely loved the food, came back for more. This will be my sushi/poke bowl take out spot from now on. The gentleman in the register is so sweet and made great suggestions. Such a nice atmosphere. Food taste so fresh, and yummy.
They don’t disappoint!!“

“Love the food but their delivery is getting worse and worse. If you order before 5 p.m. it is nice if it can be delivered by 6:30 pm (especially if that is the window they promised). Did all we can to keep this place open during the pandemic but may need to start looking elsewhere for our family's sushi fix. VERY disappointed about their service.“

“Who doesn’t love a tasty combo of noodles and orange chicken? Sure, your girlfriend - or basically anyone who’s ever side-eyed your culinary choices - might claim that orange chicken just isn’t that into you. But let’s be real: when you get those sweet, tangy bites perched on a pile of steaming-hot noodles, it’s like a match made in foodie heaven.

Here’s the catch: this place really needs to keep those noodles piping hot. If they’re not, you’ll still enjoy them, but it’s kind of like watching a blockbuster movie with the sound off - some of the magic just disappears. All it would take is a little more care to turn a decent meal into something downright unforgettable.“

“Pretty standard menu with Japanese and Chinese options. This is our favorite takeout on weeknights in Reading and always good. Dining in is nice, clean and the service is fast and perfect amount of attention. The menu isn’t super creative and leaves me wanting more options like maybe some soup or steamed dumplings but I think their strength is hibachi and sushi.

Parking: Huge lot

Kid-friendliness: Definitely kid friendly“
