Very good and good, especially the soy milk donut, the rolled pork ear. I come here every time I come to Boston. MA.02458.

The food was not even Taiwanese as advertised. They don’t even speak Taiwanese. The servers were rude and the atmosphere was quite unpleasant. Totally overrated! Never go there again.

They charge us more than the price on the menu WITHOUT letting us know in advance. I asked the waitress about it, she was like: u come out for a dinner, why u care about money in such detail… Hey, nobody cares about this bucks, but we care if u secretly increase the price without asking the customer.

My boyfriend and I love this place, we always get the eggplant dish as part of our meal. We tried the Bean threads with ground pork and it was delicious. I’m very impressed with the quality!

I was so disappointed dining here. Used to come here often. Loved their authentic Taiwanese dim sum. Was a unique neighborhood place! However, I was shocked during my recent visit. The server rushed the service. I can see they are trying to turn table every 20-30 mins. My partner and I only ordered 4 small dishes. The bill was $60+tax+tips. I’m just purely shocked! Not to mention plates and table were dirty. Very disappointing! Will not come back.

The service was nice, but the dim sum food is just so so. The outside of the restaurant needs a face lifting. The name of the restaurant is faded, unable to read. It looks almost like an abandoned house. Inside of it is nice.

My family has been eating here for more than 30 years. We are originally New Yorkers and know Chinese food very well. The food here has been consistently terrific all that time, not surprising because the chef, Jason, has been there the whole time. The menu may not be flashy but every dish we get is prepared perfectly. We’ve had celebratory parties there and will actually be renting the whole restaurant next year for an organization function. The place is a gem.

Terrible service, they don’t know which food belongs to what table, they also printed a 20% tip on the receipt without costumers permission and named it “gratuity”to hide it and also asked for an additional tip after. We just found that out today and I don’t know if other people has been tricked by this, and I am mad

Just don't know why no many Chinese people come to this Chinese restaurant for dinner but only weekend lunch?

A family favorite place for authentic Taiwanese dim sum. This place has been around since I was a kid going to Chinese school every Sunday morning. So many delicious dishes to choose from, it's hard to not over order! Last time I went the fresh soy milk was a bit watered down and not as sweet as I remember but it could have just been an off day. Love their seaweed salad and tofu salad with century old egg (my family favorite from childhood)
