It’s not that Lanzhou beef noodles are a lie, it’s that the ones served by Fuzhou people taste bad? and are not hygienic. Don’t come here.

I love dining at this place! Despite its small size, the food is absolutely delicious and reasonably priced. Every time I visit, I feel an irresistible urge to come back again. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a fantastic dining experience!

The cumin lamb biang biang noodles are fantastic! The noodles have great chew, the lamb is very tender, and at the price point ($12.99 plus tax/tip) couldn't ask for more. The dish is mildly spicy. There are a few tables inside, but would come with a smaller group because it'll be trickier to fit a group larger than 4. It is also cash only. Service was quick and food came out fast.

Small place, maybe 5-6 tables. They get pretty packed since people come in and out often even with take out. Cash only as well Been a few times and they're a little inconsistent but when it's good, it's good. Service is quick and their noodle soups are pretty good portioned. The lamb cumin noodles, I wish there was more protein. Overall prices are fairly decent. No frills, in and out place

The food portion here is pretty good. I got the Cumin Lamb Biang Biang Noodle and it's very good. But I think the Lanzhou beef brisket noodle soup is better. The lamb kebab is ok though. I bit on the fatty side. Wouldn't order it next time. But will come back for the other dishes.

Chili Square is a small restaurant located on Hancock Street, the hub of Asian food in Quincy. There is plenty of street parking. Not a lot of tables inside, so I wouldn't recommend this place for large groups. Cash only.I ordered two items for take-out, which took 10 minutes to prepare on an empty morning. No issues with service.- Spicy Cumin Lamb Burger ($6.95): Decent amount of lamb for an appetizer. The lamb was aromatic but dry and not that spicy. The dough was also dry but held up well. I wouldn't get this again.- Spicy Chicken Biang Biang Noodles ($12.95): Filling for the price but more noodles than chicken and only two pieces of vegetables, so the ratios could be better. This dish was also not that spicy. However, the chicken was flavorful and not dry like the lamb. The noodles were chewy and al dente but a bit too oily.Overall, I wouldn't go out of my way to come back, but if you're in the area and looking for a cheaper, decently filling lunch, this place is an okay choice.

Food is okay. Service is okay. Cash only. Before pandemic I went there only for noodles, the biang biang noodles had pretty good texture. Last month ordered some beef dish, they were not fresh and taste funny. Not gonna visit again. Also when I was paying for it, the price on the menu was $17, cashier told me it cost $18 with tax, I did see the $18 price on the wall, so I didn't question anything, then she only gave me the 0.46 cents changes. I have to ask isn't the food $18? Then she gave me the one dollar back. It was takeout, I didn't want to give any tips. The whole miscalculation thing feels funny and I can't trust this place anymore.

I'd been wanting to try this place out for a while, and I finally did the other night. I called and ordered take out (I wasn't positive the Uber eats was legit, however it was clear it is after going inside & seeing a table for Uber eats pick ups). I got the chicken biang biang noodle and it was amazing! The hand pulled noodles are so chewy and delicious. Looking forward to trying more dishes there in the future. Of note- I do believe it's cash only inside so be sure to have cash handy.
Worth a repeat visit. The good: The hand pulled noodle dishes are very tasty. It has just the right amount of spice so you can enjoy it without burning your tongue. The bad: The restaurant is small with a few tables so usually there is a wait for a table. Luckily once seated the wait for food isn't too long. Recommended dishes: Spicy Chicken Biang Biang Noodle

Great noodle soup, small seatings so you may have to wait. We waited only 10 minutes on a Saturday afternoon, I’d come back and try different dishes next

Best noodles I’ve had in Boston so far. Noodle is chewy and soup flavorful.
