“everything we ever ordered has been fabulous. and the service is excellent.“

“The Chinese and Taiwanese restaurants in Newton mostly serve snacks or side dishes, which can be paired with some fried noodles or scallion pancakes, and the overall portions are small. This time I ordered beef burrito, Taiwanese fried noodles, carrot cake, steamed pork ribs, large intestine noodles, fried dough sticks, and sweet soy milk. Beef burrito, crispy crust and beef slices, salty and delicious. The Taiwanese fried noodles are just right in saltiness and taste good. The fried radish cake has a crispy texture, but the body of the radish cake is hard (not the same as what you get in Taiwan). The steamed pork ribs are soft and tender, and paired with the sweet potatoes spread underneath, it is delicious. The large intestine noodles have a smooth texture, and the large intestine is delicious, with a nostalgic taste. Crispy fried dough sticks paired with slightly sweet soy milk, a classic Taiwanese delicacy.

“Two months ago, we hosted a wedding banquet at Mulan Restaurant, and it was a truly wonderful experience. The team prepared a beautifully decorated and festive private dining room, and the food was absolutely delicious. Everyone—guests and hosts alike—had a fantastic time. We are deeply grateful to the owner and staff for making the celebration warm, joyful, and truly memorable.“

“The food was very authentic and everything we ordered was really, really tasty! The staff and owner were so kind and even treated us to their milk tea which was also really good! The service was also very fast and we highly recommend!!!“

“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.“

“When you walk into Mu Lan it is like you are transported to Taiwan. They have some "Americanized" dishes, however they are known for their authentic dishes. My Chinese friends that also own restaurants told me that Mu Lan is the real deal. I went at lunchtime. Most tables were occupied. I was one of the only non-Asian customers. To me, that's a sign of a great restaurant. As soon as I sat, they brought me over tea, water with lemon, a ramikin of peanuts and a ramikin of pickled cabbage and carrots. A very pleasant start to the meal. My waiter, an older gentleman with glasses was very friendly and was one of the English speaking employees. Part of their menu is written in Taiwanese. Those items had pictures. You can also easily use your cell and Google translate. I should note the restaurant was extremely clean and had nice Asian decor. They give you chopsticks. There is forks/spoons available if needed. I use chopsticks at home so this wasn't an issue. I started with a cup of Hot and Sour Soup. It's a favorite dish of mine and I was curious to see how they did it. Great flavors with the normal fillers like tofu, golden needle, black fungus, egg etc. Had a good amount of heat to clear your nose. My next course was half of the House Duck. Also delicious! Although reading the reviews it sounds like people lean towards the Smoked Duck. I finished with some Cuttlefish Dumplings! These were amazing! I believe the wrapper was black from squid ink. Overall, very happy with the food and the little extras they give you.

When they bring out the bill, they also bring Orange slices!!! Kind of like the pineapple back in the day! They have a large menu with a lot of interesting choices. From a cultural perspective it was really fascinating to watch some of the families eat. Each person would get a bowl of rice. Then the table would get two giant bowls
One looked like a soup. The family members would pick at the big bowls and place items on their rice. After a few bites they would repeat the process.

Definitely worth checking out for great fresh, authentic Taiwanese/Chinese food. Prices were very reasonable! Excited to go back and try something new!

Parking: I didn't have trouble finding street parking!

Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly if your kid has an adventurous palette.“

“This is our favorite Chinese food take out restaurant in Lexington. The food is very fresh and very reasonably priced. The owner is incredibly friendly and I have talked with him many times about real estate when I go in there to order our take out dinner. Since this restaurant is located in a very small commercial strip in our neighborhood, I have many times just walked up there to get our dinner (it’s actually quicker than waiting for the delivery driver).“

“The soup dumplings, that is, the mini juicy buns with pork, are a religious experience. These are the standard by which I measure all other soup dumplings and all have fallen short. When I eat these things I see the face of god. They would be part of my death row meal. The sauce they’re served with, though tasty, is utterly superfluous. The divine flavor of the soup and pork filling of the dumplings is so good I don’t even touch the sauce.

The restaurant itself is unassuming and it’s usually honestly rather chilly in there, but I don’t even care because those mini juicy buns have me in a stranglehold and they deserve to be eaten at their peak freshness, in the restaurant, rather than jostled around and cooled down by delivery.

It’s worth noting that their other food is also great, particularly the other dumplings and the fried rice, which is that lighter kind of fried rice whose superior flavor is almost sorcery in my book. But seriously. The mini juicy buns with pork.“

“I got a bite to eat (noodles with mixed vegetables) at an affordable place nearby to where I was working. The food was delicious, the staff was very friendly and the atmosphere was delightful. I will definitely eat here again if I am in the area. Loved it.“
