I don’t understand how this place has such high marks. Maybe they used to be better. I ordered the char siu bolo bao and a yuenyeung, and everything was consistently mid. The servings are small, the flavor was mid, the service was cold, and the atmosphere isn’t anything to write home about, especially with scowling employees standing about. The food (especially pork!) also shouldn’t be so expensive when it’s all pre-made and only needs to be dispensed from a warmer tray and an urn.

The food is very good but the service is nonexistent. My bar is pretty low for takeout: food is ready and someone acknowledges me verbally with a somewhat positive tone. They have not met this bar either time I have been here.

The bolo chicken sandwhich fills me with life. The Bao are also quite good, such a cute little place with lots of personality, looking forward to making it back here someday!
If you’ve been to Hong Kong and enjoyed the food you got there then this little gen tucked away in Quincy is a must-go for their authentic flavours
We’ve been here a few times and every time the food has been great. The beef curry deserves its own fan base. Bolo baos balance sweet and savoury brilliantly. The baos are truly authentic and delicious. The French toasts are great - maybe overly sweet but hey - that’s how they do it in HK The tea - both hot and cold were also flavoursome. Cheung fun’s are also great - fish ballls and brisket in particular The conjee is good if you like it and if you don’t then why would you order it!
They close at 4 (yes!) so that’s odd and also are closed on Monday and Tuesday Place has no more than 10 seats so it may be a bit uncomfortable if you plan to eat in - but we’ve always done this and actually find it to be fun thing in balance.
Overall - it’s a must-try.

The food was not even remotely close to HK style at all. The portions were small and expensive. Do not recommend to anyone that is looking for authentic HK style food.

Nothing like it around town. Really can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. But you really have to try the HK French Toast. Can’t wait to go back.
Soy milk: very prominent soy flavor, adjustable sugar levels. Truly some of the best I’ve had in the greater Boston area. Youtiao: not freshly fried so it was soft and not crunchy. A bit oily from sitting out and soaking. Wished they offered me a freshly fried one since I came at a time where there wasn’t anyone and they weren’t busy. Hoisin+sesame 猪肠粉：very nostalgic for me. Rice noodles seem homemade—soft, slightly chewy, tightly rolled. Chicken pineapple bun: pineapple bun was a bit meh due to texture (I prefer a slightly less dense but chewier bao, like you can get a better pineapple bun in Chinatown) but the fried chicken was well marinated. Went well with the sesame slaw and sauce. Lava salted egg yolk French toast: a tad too sweet for my taste but pretty good. Would have preferred it to be pan fried instead but it’s HK styled so deep fried makes sense.
Self serve style utensils and put away your own trays.

The food and atmosphere was amazing. I have been looking forward to this for a long time!! I remember when they opened and I had to go try so many of their foods, I remember the owner and how it was owned by him, and he his first child, and the fact that his community was totally there for him!! We drove up from RI 1st stop on the way up to Chinatown in boston. We got the salt and pepper chicken which was super tender and mosit with just the right amount kick. I got 2 of their stuffed French toast that I have been waiting for I got the lave egg yoke and the peanut butter and OMG it was everything!!!! Sweete crispy and soo amazing!! We also got the Rubato fun fun had my first fish ball and I have been afraid of those for ever but they were great no fishy taste and the brisket was soo tender and the sauces were perfect for the rice noodles!!! I RECOMMEND this to everyone!
