This is one of our family's go-to places for Chinese food. Their dumplings are consistently good. We also usually order take out from their seafood, vegetables, pork, and chicken menu and so far, we have been satisfied overall. It is a simple and reliable place to get "home-cooked" Chinese food.

Great place in the burbs west of Boston for soup dumplings! There were 4 adults in my group. We had soup dumplings, pan fried bao, spicy string beans w/ pork, steamed fish with scallions, & rice cake with pork & cabbage. We ordered a nice variety and had leftovers.On a Wednesday at 6:30pm there weren't many diners in the restaurant but there was a steady stream of takeout orders. A simple, casual vibe. Sorry, no pics because we were pretty hungry and none of us remembered to snap any shots. Trust me, food looks good and tastes good!

Never disappoints! Love this place so much! The food and service is amazing, and the main restaurant is nice. If it's your first time here, i recommend the fried dumplings,

Compared to where I used to live in NH, they'd be #1 or #2 choice, but given the number of excellent Chinese options in the area, tbh not in my top 5. Hot & Sour ok, but their dumplings were disappointing for a place that specializes in them. Entree was decent. Portions a decent size, but waitstaff was not the best. Waited a long time b4 someone greeted us, a long time before our order was taken and too long for a simple water request.

Decent food, but great service. Received a call from the restaurant after online order to confirm food restrictions, which was appreciated. Thank you

Food is average. Dishes we had didn't really stand out and not something we would crave for. Food came out quickly, servers are always quick and rushing around because they're busy with dining service and also take out. But they are always around so easy to grab them if you need something.

Been to a lot of Chinese places from here to Seattle. And this place has some very good dumplings. And the shrimp fried rice is delicious. Not too greasy American style but more authentic. Been here a couple of times and will be back again!
