“Very welcoming. I got there about an hour before closing so I picked my food quickly. I had the Creamy Tum Yum and added a little chili oil to it for some spice. It is a great dish for someone who wants flavor with little to no heat. There was plenty of pork and two shrimp tails. I also had the Thai Tea which from the picture in the menu I was worried was a premade mix. Instead it came out fresh and required me to swirl it around to blend the cream. Perfect flavor and temperature. Not overly sweet like some places make it.

The atmosphere was laid back with some cool art work on the walls. Definitely gave a college town feel. The bathroom could use some work. It wasn't scary. It was clean and well stocked but it is definitely on the back burner when it comes to decorating.

I'm surprised they don't have merchandise. Their logo would be a cool patch on a hat. Seems like most restaurants are doing this now and I'm here for it. Better than buying shot glasses.

Anyways, check the place out for some good hot pots, ramen, etc. when in the area.“

“First time at Cloud and I had an amazing time. Here with my longtime friend celebrating her birthday and mine. We got the fried lobster and it was superb. I got the salmon fried rice also. Definitely will be back again. Thank you for an amazing night!!“

“Grandma’s Kitchen in Newton is an absolute gem. From the moment you walk in, you're welcomed with warmth and that cozy, comforting atmosphere that truly lives up to the name. The staff are friendly and genuinely care about your experience, and the food? Pure comfort on a plate.

I had the chicken and dumplings and my partner tried the meatloaf—both were incredible! Everything tasted homemade, seasoned perfectly, and served in generous portions. The biscuits were buttery and fluffy, and the pie (don’t skip dessert!) was just like something Grandma would bake—maybe better, but don’t tell her I said that.

Whether you're local or just passing through, this is the kind of place that makes you feel like you’re sitting at your grandma’s table. Can’t wait to come back!“

“Found this place on Google & Pinterest. So glad we gave it a try. The chicken corn soup was sweet and delicious, we had pork and cabbage dumplings, spring rolls, hot tea, fried rice and kimchi. It was all delicious. I don’t use chop sticks so they brought me a fork. Would highly recommend this place it was busy but we don’t have to wait long for a table and they had a steady line of to go orders going out as well.“

“Awesome Dumplings!! Great Service!☺️“

“The food at Fuji is outstanding. Far and away the best fusion Japanese food in Newton and around.“

“Maybe it's a theme here but all the food was mostly salty and had lime in it. My group of 8 people thought the same. I think the waitress was new so maybe she needed more training. We asked for sauces and it took her 20 mins to get them. In the end, we asked for the bill, same thing happened. Took her awhile to get it. The restaurant was not busy at all. I think they could chill out on the lime and salt. Even our dumplings were limy. The decor was beautiful and IG worthy. The bar was pretty as well. Hope they will improve next time I dine here.“

“Great food and service equals great value!!“

“Not variety of options for vegetarian people, but my non veg friends loved their foods! The fried rice is just average.

Editing after been here tens of times, this is my favorite Thai place around. Their thai tea- oh wow, super. Khao soi and drunken noodles are my favorite. Fried rice is my go-to option for Thai cuisine, and theirs isn't just as good as their other items mentioned above.

They make you wait until the full group has arrived, so prep if you don't want to wait in the cold.“

“For a party of four we have ordered the following as take out
1. Szechuan Kung Pao Chicken
2. Chinese Cabbage Fried Yuba
3. Hand Pulled Biang Biang Noodle W Spicy Cumin Beef
4. Popcorn Chicken

Two rice boxes came as sides
The seating is quite limited ah still we were able to go to the nearby concert park area and sit on a bench to share a meal. The food was delicious! You typically order via the kiosk and the food comes out at just the right temperature to warm you up even while eating outside on a moderately cold day.

The service was kind! The staff did try to find a spot for us - but we decided to eat outside so that we had a wider seating arrangement.

The food is made quickly and with care.
God bless you all!“

“Very decent Chinese restaurant. About as good as you’ll get in Boston. The pork fried rice is excellent, with generous meat and great consistency. Salt and pepper ribs are solid, string beans are as you would expect with nice heat. The Shanghai noodles were pretty good but I preferred the other items on the menu. Scallion pancakes were excellent; very crispy.“

“This restaurant is so good, it is my first time here and I am impressed. The flavor is very authentic Asian, my favorite was the mango crispy duck and the pai thai. The pai tai tastes sweet and sour, the flavor is clean and refreshing. The duck is tender, the skin is crispy, and the sauce is similar to curry, and there is only a hint of spicy. I also like the fried chicken, it is crispy and juicy, and the sweet and spicy sauce just add a perfect layer of the taste. The curry were also really good, we had red curry with beef and green curry with seafood. I didn’t try the red curry but my friend love it. And my green curry is a definite recommendation, the seafood with curry taste perfect, there is a hint of spicy although it was mild. We had Ice Thai tea, both regular and green tea ones. And I love the green tea one, it is new. The service was really good, love it.“

“It was Ladies' night for us, and we popped into Banyan. We love the décor, atmosphere, drinks. We instantly loved Jimmy who gave us the warmest welcome like we were old friends. We ended our night in Banyan and are eager to go back for a meal!“

“The best general tso's I've ever had, and it's not even close. Perfectly crispy, a little spicy and the flavor is on point. Not to mention the portion size is very generous. I don't usually leave reviews but this place is incredible.“

“Beautiful dining room. I ordered take out this evening using the Toast App. I mistakenly added a $500 tip instead of a $5 tip because the order went through too fast. I called and explained what happened. The manager called me right back and assured me that he would fix it before closing out. He was so kind, even though they were busy. The food was excellent and the waitress was so kind in packing one dish separately due to a peanut allergy. We will definitely be frequent flyers here.“

“You could taste the freshness in the food, generous portions and very clean dining area. I recommend.“

“Thank you Alan and Lotus Xpress for catering my husband's surprise 50th birthday party. Alan, you were wonderful to work with during the planning process- providing options and tending to all the details. The food was AMAZING! Delicious and a great variety. The day of the event, it was such a relief to have you there- catering to our 75 guests. As the host of the party, it gave me great ease knowing you were tending to the buffet and I was able to relax and tend to the guests! The food made the event. Thank you for helping make the event a success!“

“The Grapefruit Salty Cream over Grape Green Tea ($7.25) was good and refreshing, though I am not sure if they use fruit juice or fresh fruits. The cream on top also just looked like whipped cream when I opened the cap, but it tasted fine.

I feel like I got coaxed into paying with cash because it was empty. I didn’t see any signs indoors or in the reviews about the supposed $10 minimum as there usually are. Thankfully, I had cash on me, but a heads up for anyone ordering inside.“

“I really like this place. Portions are great. The lady in the front counter always has a smile on her face. Even I ordered a special request on the menu, they were able to make it for me. This is my second time here and I really like it. Highly recommended.“

“This is my 3rd time here. My husband & his best friend use to go here almost regularly whenever
they got together. His friend has passed away. Our waitress asked how he was doing & very understanding and thoughtful herself when she found out. The place is happily decorated (they have a Christmas tree all decorated in the entrance for the joy it brings!!)Bell like music & 2 TVs with sports on. They are at least 2 sisters all 3 ladies recognized & greeted us. Food is excellent!!! We both had soup -hot & sour for me, wonton for him- fresh & tasty, wonton seem to be freshly made. I love seaweed salad- theirs is the only I have ever been srved w/out iceberg lettuce
'filler'!!. He had sweetened chicken fried rice & a spring roll, I had their tofu w.garlic sauce & white rice. Food was delicious. Hospitality genuine and sweet. Atmosphere unique and pleasant. Paid city parking and plenty of it. There's a small bar.Bathroom accom
modations are clean and spacious
We will be back often. They have been in business for awhile for clearly obvious reasons!!“

“never had a bad bite here. Their ramen is killer. Tiny place, but worth waiting for a table!“

“A very authentic little eatery. The curry fish balls with rice noodles are delicious, and the beef brisket clay pot rice is also excellent. We also ordered the coconut black chicken soup and pork liver. There aren't many seats. Parking is only available on the street.“

“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.“

“I loved the beef tataki and spring roll!! I will definitely be going back!“

“Mi Soul is a great miso soup ramen, the pork is esp tender and generous.Ten Yum was solid, very simple(just noodle and shrimp) and was mild/medium spicy.Poke was good, fish was very clean tasting, and a good amount of rice. I only wish they had spicy mayo as an option, more Seaweed or furikake for crispyness, and a little more cabbage to go with the large amount of rice. Great to have the option given the other poke spots are about a mile away.“

“Food is great and the staff is great especially the bartenders!“

“I got take out poke bowls and they were both really delicilious. I got my partner the ahi tuna bowl on salad. He said it was really tasty, but the salad was just big chunks of lettuce and not cut up quite right. That was the only negative remark. I got a build your own bowl with tofu and shrimp tempura with corn, seaweed salad, avocado, and edamame with spicy mayo. It was SO GOOD! The person behind the counter was so nice. I will absolutely be back often.
The inside might not look super fancy and what not, but it's worth the try.“

“The works poke bowl is excellent! Sauce, flavors and sushi were extremely delicious. Space inside is quite clean and there are a decent amount of seats to dine in. Will definitely be returning!

We swapped the spicy tuna for ahi tuna and added avocado -10/10 recommend“

“Had an absolute feast here for a good price. This food is perfect for a Friday night after a hard week. It’s filling and flavorful. The soup dumplings were a highlight along with the scallion beef rolls.

Those warmed us up for the fried shrimp noodles and beef. I really enjoyed getting takeout from here and I’ll definitely be back. Would recommend!“

“They never disappoint Food is consistent never a bad meal Food presentation is A+ Staff very professional and very accommodating, making the whole experience even better !“

“I ordered the Flat noodle (with beef) , and spring rolls. Tasty! (Er, came out piping hot, so make sure to give it a moment before chowing down). No frill, but a very cool computer takes your order, great for takeout. Sitting down near the window gives a nice view of the Belmont arch and Belmont Center.“

“Food is always really good, and portions are HUGE. The issue I have had twice now is when I order take out, they take forever to reconfirm the order. The first time they reconfirmed the order 20 minutes after I placed it then I had to wait another 15 minutes.

This second time it's now been over 30 minutes since I placed a takeout order and still no confirmation. And I'll probably end up having to call them and wait another 15 minutes.

* So after my meal I had a surprise voice mail from the manager. They were very apologetic, and also refunded me my meal. It really showed how much the care and value customer service and hospitality. *

Will have to try take out another time, but lots of respect to them for actually reaching out about the issue.“

“Great food with gluten free options!“

“My new go-to spot for late night Chinese food.

Saw these spots popping up around the GBA a couple of months ago. At first glance, I figured it was just another low-tier takeout-focused Chinese joint. But after catching one of their flyers, I decided to give it a shot.

The place seemed fairly new, and the cleanliness was definitely a step up from your average Chinese takeout spot. Their menu is a bit of a mash-up, featuring both Chinese dishes and sushi rolls, but I wasn’t quite ready to roll the dice on sushi from here. I stuck with the classics (Twice cooked pork, shumai, etc), and most things I tried were solid. Prices aren’t exactly a steal, but the portions are generous, and the staff have always been friendly.

Compared to the late-night spots in Chinatown that I used to go to, the real perk of Dumpling Garden is the hassle-free street parking. Sure, the ratings might not be high, but I would still recommend giving them a try.“

“Taste, quality, presentation and service are excellent. Love their large menu. I've had their traditional Chinese appetizers. Pickled and hot pot rice noodles are excellent taste and portion. Claypot rice noodles are packed with great flavor.“

“we had 2 sushi rolls and a pi no grigio and a maitai all were greatm fresh sushi and a nice atmosphere. the place is very clean. service was great!“

“delicious poki bowls and creative poki burritos. Ramen was great too“

“I love their food jun our server she is great“

“I was impressed with everything! It was my first time trying ramen that didn’t come from my house and after being skeptical for so long I actually loved it! The service was amazing, the food was delicious - I tried the spicy ramen with chicken … and I definitely will be going back soon!!“

“The food is amazing! I totally forgot the name of the dish but the pork with noodle dish with the fried rangoon was amazing def recommend 🍜. Crispy chicken basil is also good and I recommend it with the sticky rice 🍚. The Hor Mok (salmon, shrimp, etc. curry inside a coconut 🥥) is pretty good too! The mango sticky rice is a go-to dessert 🥭“

“The food was delicious，I recommend this place。“

“This little cafe/restaurant is nestled in an alley next to a general store, it gives speakeasy vibes. The place is small, but clean and welcoming. I want to say it’s family owned, but I am not sure.

Their menu has breakfast/lunch/dinner options, plenty of options for vegetarians as well. We started with some scallion pancakes, they were crisp and delicious.

We ordered their drunken noodles with vegetables and basil fried rice 🍚 with egg and tofu. Their noodles 🍝 were saucy( I like when they are not dry, so I loved it) it also had the perfect level of spices, lots of veggies like broccoli 🥦 🫑 🍄‍🟫 🧅 🥕

The basil fried rice was okay, I have had better basil fried rice for sure. The taste was good, but I had higher expectations.

The Thai cold coffee🧋was the highlight of our meal. It was so perfect, that I would have had another glass. Strong coffee with low sugar, just how I like it.

Our experience was very good, and we look forward to visiting this place again.“

“very good food decent price . will return for more...“

“I think people that are complaining here are overly privileged and don't appreciate the little things let me tell you why. I'm not saying there feelings don't matter but I am struggling in this state, and can't cook at the moment so to get some "nutrients I ordered a pizza from here that would have garlic, parsley etc and I instantly felt better! The pizzas were so good. As someone who lost a lot of family, I'm not going to bicker about pizza. I thought it was delicious. My boyfriend ordered the medium size and it had lots of cheese. We will order from yall again thank you for your service!“

“the lunchbox meal was delicious! reasonable prices“

“My boyfriend and I love it here! When the staff learned it was his birthday they went all out with taking care of us. The staff are so kind and want you to enjoy the experience. I highly recommend this restaurant.“

“We are vegetarians. We ordered three different kinds of ramen noodle soup(one of them substituted with rice noodle)The best one was curry tofu ramen noodle. The sea salt rice noodle was also good. The soybean sauce ramen was a bit bland. However, we did enjoy the food because we didn’t need to wait in line to be served especially when we were hungry.

Vegetarian options: A good restaurant for vegetarian options“

“They have wonderful food and drinks. They have friendly helpful people working there. It’s very clean and we always have a great time and it’s reasonably priced.“

“The general tso chicken was some of the best I've had, the fried rice tho...meh. it wasn't really good. I'd give the chicken 5 stars, but that fried rice one star. The crab rangoon were really good. Great amount of stuffing, and nice size. Id give them 4 stars. Def a place I'll come back to on my visits to Boston for work“
