50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Saugus

“BEST CHINESE FOOD WITHIN 50 MILES. 5 stars without a doubt. The food is always amazing. Ask for extra duck sauce.
Only issue with the place and believe me you'll learned to ignore them because of how good the food is, sometimes when they say 20 minutes for pick up its more like 45 minutes but that's fine. Their prices seem to be on par with other Chinese food places in the area, in my opinion all Chinese food is over priced but hey can't fault them for wanting to make money. Their food is well worth the price. we spend about $65 every time we go. It's enough food to make 2 adults uncomfortably full with enough left overs to do it again the next day. It's just as good reheated.“

“Treat you like family Food is amazing“

“Great place,food and service. Owner Kevin and staff makes you feel like family“

“amazing food. INCREDIBLE service. can not say enough good things about my experience there last night.“

“extremely attentive staff, our meal was brought very promptly. bathroom could accommodate my wheelchair easily. we loved spending a special night there, and are already looking forward to our return visit“

“Decided to walk through Allston on a grody, misty afternoon and look for some food. Walked in by chance and at my SO’s insistence that we give it a look. I loved everything about the aesthetic, and enjoyed the soft music playing in the background. Being able to choose the ingredients I wanted - knowing they were organic and that they looked more than delicious raw...that was the absolute best part. The gentleman at the front was supremely helpful and answered any question thrown at him - by anyone in the shop. The price was more than worth the amount of food received, and the care extended to us as guests was wonderful. I absolutely would recommend anyone to give this a try. Don’t hesitate to ask a question, you will definitely get an answer. :)“

“Excellent food and a very enjoyable meal at Kung Fu Kitchen! We tried several dishes and were very happy with everything we ordered.

The wonton soup was especially good. The wontons were large, with visible shrimp in each one, and the soup was loaded with fresh vegetables. Very satisfying and flavorful.

The chive pancake was another highlight—filled with chives, egg, glass noodles, and dried shrimp. It tasted authentic and was absolutely delicious. We also enjoyed the steamed and pan-fried dumplings.

The restaurant is clean, bright, and modern. Service wasn’t the greatest, but for this type of casual, fast-paced restaurant, it was totally acceptable.

Overall, the quality and authenticity of the food really impressed me. Definitely a 5/5, and I would happily come back!“

“We definitely enjoyed our meal! Pan seared pork bao and mala duck for appetizers. General Tso’s chicken and Grandma’s pork noodles for entrees. Good stuff! Kyle the bartender was awesome. We ate at the bar,“

“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.“

“Thank you to Chef Jon for allowing us to pick up a package of frozen dumplings during our visit to Artifact on Memorial Day. Cooked them up tonight and they were delicious, as was the edamame salad!!“

“This place is legit! Our favorite was the double cooked pork. The only thing we didn’t like was the soup, which had too many peppers in it. But there are other things on the menu that we would like to try. I will eat here again!“

“I was there at Jian Nan Syosset, Long Island. Everything went great!! But, those took the orders needed to be more educated to understand each dishes. We were a fairly larger group than standard party size. Some dished were small and some dim sum served with small quantities, like 3 or 4. Those who order for the large group, should give suggestion to order multiple orders for the same dish. So, each one in the group can have at least one.“

“We have a new office in Boston. So periodically I drive down from our main office to the Boston location and every time I do, I have resolved to try a new restaurant. This was today’s choice and it was SPECTACULAR! My server was fantastic. The food came out quickly and was insanely good. I didn’t know how big my stir-fried rice cake bowl would be so I ordered the sweet and sour pork loin to go with it. But the rice cake bowl was huge and tasted incredible. Lots of heat, lots of fresh prepared veggies and meat. 10/10 would recommend that dish. The pork tenderloin I tried and 10/10 would recommend it as well. The location is a bit small and that is literally the only nit I can pick. If you’re in this area, get some take out or eat in , you won’t regret it!!“

“Went there for a corporate holiday gathering. The staff were terrific and it was such a fun, interesting chance to learn, laugh and connect with colleagues. Staff are so attentive, kind and patient. A wonderful place!“

“Tried this restaurant based on the positive reviews and didn't have high expectations, but found the soup dumplings and noodles surprising good and quite authentic. The soup dumplings had a good amount of liquid inside and the pork was tasty, not dry. The rainbow dumplings all tasted pretty much the same, we couldn't distinguish the different flavors but they tasted very good. The beef noodles had a great flavor and a decent amount of protein and veg. The chili chicken was a bit disappointing however. It was quite dry and wasn't very spicy at all. The chili wontons were very good but again not spicy enough. We enjoyed the jelly dessert, just the right amount of sweetness for after dinner.

The one waiter that was working around 6pm on a Monday night was very efficient. There was some confusion about leaving out peanuts in our dishes but he corrected the problem with the kitchen without hesitation. The restaurant is bright and airy, very clean. Overall, we had a very good dining experience here and will definitely be coming back.“

“AMAZING FOOD & ATMOSPHERE!! The Mongolian Beef is incredible!!!!“

“A wonderful tiki bar! We loved the food and creative cocktails.“

“Great find, the best fried soup dumplings I've had so far. You can watch them making dumplings through the window. Always fresh and obviously hot from the stove and always delicious. Wontons in spicy sauce is also among my favorites. Hard to get inside table during busy hours but you can sit outside when it's nice out.“

“The food was much better than I was expecting. Despite being drenched in sauce, the crispy orange chicken was still very crispy. The Peking Ravioli was very good, it's great to see this piece of Massachusetts culinary history still on menus. The service was attentive, not friendly, but I'm paying for a server not a friend. Overall, 5 stars, and I think I will be back.“

“High quality of food and service“

“I visited on a weekday right when the place opened. It wasn’t very crowded at first, but it started filling up as time went on.

They currently have an All-You-Can-Eat deal, and I was pleased with it. The service was prompt and attentive, with quick water refills and speedy delivery of dishes. The staff were knowledgeable about the menu and offered great recommendations.

We sampled the Pork Belly, Pork, Beef, and Lamb, all of which were tasty and well-portioned for our group. We also tried the watercress, fried bean curd, silken tofu, quail egg, and noodles. While most items were standard, the noodles stood out as particularly good.

For appetizers, we had the pork dumplings and brown sugar rice cake. The pork dumplings were typical, but the brown sugar rice cake was a highlight—crispy and not overly sweet.

The sauce bar had a solid selection, including the usual options and a nice touch of chopped peanuts for added flavor.

There was also a dessert bar with ice cream and popsicles, which was a nice bonus.

The ambiance was quite pleasant, with unique chairs and a well-thought-out theme. The only minor issue was that the pot was a bit far from my seat, but that was more about my seating arrangement than anything else.

Overall, it was a great experience, and I’d definitely return.“

“Food is very good! good selection, ingredients are fresh, portion sizes are good. The menu doesn't have a lot of information on each dish, so you do have to ask for some of them, esp if you have a food allergy. There is a little language barrier as well. They presume you will use chop sticks, so you must ask for utensils which are plastic. the plates are paper plates, so it isn't fancy, but the food is good and service is relatively quick.
I had the vegetable Mala soup bowl. My wife had the wonton soup bowl. My mother had eggplant, and dunplings separate plates, with shared rice and scallion pancakes for the table. The Mala soup is quite spicey (Chili oil).
Parking is street parking in downtown area, so if you find the parking, pleasant downtown Brighton to walk through. Portion sizes were large and we took food home. I recommend for casual dining, not quite what I woild call fast food, but the layout and vibe feels that way.“

“I love the homemade noodles, pretty stretchy and firm. The flavor is also good and deep, it's just too salty. I ate one bowl of noodles feeling like I was eating 1 full bowl of salt. Next time if I come here I'll definitely ask to lower the salt to 1/5 of what they're putting in“

“excellent! piping hot and delicious, authentic“

“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.“

“Pleasantly surprised! The place was actually quite busy on a Friday afternoon. First caveat.. if you do not like lamb do not go here. There was a distinct lamb smell in the air because...lamb is really their specialty! We tried a few things.. beef and lamb, and by far the lamb was better. The noodles were the highlight, great texture and unlimited length! My comment makes it kind of funny that the noodles were harder to eat in my stir fry because it was one big noodle. Funny problem to have. Anyways I'll be back to try more stuff!“

“香港に居るような雰囲気‼️goodd(⌒ー⌒)!“

“Great food,we always order to go. I highly recommend Tung!s. Taste. Food is always fresh,delicious and service is great“

“The food here at Chef Zhang's is amazing! The minced pork black bean noodles have an amazing texture and the dishes have great presentation. They have great spice levels and you can ask for your food to be less or extra spicy. The owner is super friendly and service is great.“

“This is easily my new favorite in Brookline. The rice is cooked very well, with a crispy layer around the edges of the clay pot that’s lightly browned and crunchy which is exactly what you want to look for in clay pot rice. Sue recommended mixing the beef brisket with Chinese sausage into the rice, and it was amazing. The vibe is cozy and casual, great for a relaxed dinner, and the prices are a genuinely great value for the quality and portion size. This place has been open about a year now and deserves way more attention, highly recommend!“

“Just amazing as usual! We had Elaine as our server and that warm smile brightened our rain soaked day so much! Not only was she very knowledgeable but sooooo personable. The food was fantastic as usual.

While speaking to the manager Freddie, who also has a wonderful smile, he made my mother and I feel like we were at home and not just any old people at a restaurant. Wonderful experience all around!“

“Came outside peak hours and had a pretty relaxed meal. The bilingual menu descriptions were fun. We ordered three meat dishes, and while everything was solid, nothing really stood out. It felt a little pricey at the end, though I’m not sure if that’s just the going rate for Chinese food in Somerville. Sichuan Cuisine in Watertown is still my favorite.“

“My daughter & I went to Wei’s Restaurant for the first time…we were craving Lobster Ginger Scallion and they had a great twin lobster special so we chose Wei’s…It was a Monday and our usual place was closed….Im so happy we found Wei’s!!!!! We had amazing spring rolls that were so fresh and light crunchy and delicious! The best I ever had! Then we got the Peking Ravioli and they were also homemade! Not those regular hard ones they were like pillows of dough wrapped around a very tasty filling! Again the best I ever had! We had a couple of excellent cocktails and the Lobster Ginger Scallion did not disappoint! You can choose from the list of different cooking styles for your twin lobsters as well! The owner was so helpful and sweet I cannot wait to go back! Well done Wei’s!“

“This place is so good. Best Uyghur food I’ve had in New England. We tried 6 entrees and enjoyed all of them. The only thing we weren’t a fan of were the dumplings and samosas because they’re very cumin forward. We received our food really quickly as well. If you’re looking for a halal Asian food spot check them out“

“Recently had lunch here for the first time and it was soooooo good. Delicious food, warm ambience and really nice staff.“

“the downside is the delivery charges cost $7 so I can't order regularly too expensive“

“We had a great meal at Fuchun Ju and would definitely recommend it if you’re looking for excellent Chinese food in Boston.

We tried several varieties of soup dumplings, the scallion pancakes, and the Peking duck. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and well prepared. The standout for us was the scallion pancakes—they were wonderfully flaky, crisp on the outside, and absolutely delicious. The Peking duck was also excellent, and we really enjoyed the smaller soup dumplings.

The only dish that wasn’t a favorite was the large pork and crab soup dumpling. It was very well made, but the crab flavor was stronger than we expected and overpowered the pork for our taste. If you enjoy a pronounced crab flavor, you may love it.

One tip: the large soup dumplings take about 25 minutes to prepare, so be sure to order them as soon as you sit down if you plan to try them.

The restaurant is located in a nice area that’s easy to find, and the service was friendly and attentive throughout our meal. Overall, we had a very enjoyable dining experience and would happily return to try more of the menu.“

“got takeout, went home and egg foo yong had no gravy on it. Called them up and told them about that. Not even two minutes later the woman called back and stated that's the way they make it! I have had this numerous times and there was always brown gravy on it and in container! She was very argumentative. For that reason , we will not be going back! DO BETTER!“

“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!“

“Got a combination plate and it’s easily enough for two and under 20 bucks. The chicken fingers were perfectly cooked and the correct ratio of chicken to batter 🙌. Chicken wings were very tender, and they don’t skimp at all on the chicken and broccoli. Service was efficient, quick, and kind. Will definitely return here and try some different things.“

“This review is long overdue, but this is a great Thai small business to support. The place is cozy [with seasonal outdoor seating] and the staff is always warm. The Drunken noodles are my go-to and it is a generous portion of noodles AND protein...for the most part. I strongly discourage paying extra for extra protein as I paid $3 for EXTRA protein and received 3 small shrimp. This seems to be a trend as I have ordered DN at two other places and the extra fee was not reflected in the portion delivered. But Mae does deliver consistently outside of this.“

“I love eating there. Dim sum and dinner menu .“

“their 8 for $10 dumplings are DIVINE!!!! you can add as much soy sauce & chili oil as you'd like yourself and the restaurant itself has a really nice old school vibe. talking to the staff in english can be a bit hard but they're very very sweet“

“Excellent hot pot experience! The food was fresh, the soup base was authentic and delicious, and the service was outstanding. Everything came out quickly, and the staff were welcoming and attentive. Great atmosphere for dinner with friends or family. I’ll definitely be coming back! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“We tried Kozy Kitchen while visiting Boston and it ended up being a really nice surprise. We ordered the beef noodle soup and xiao long bao, and both were seriously good, honestly better than a lot of places we’ve tried in Boston’s Chinatown. We’re visiting from New York, so we’re pretty picky about Chinese food, and this place definitely delivered. The location is also super convenient on the BU campus.“

“Great service and amazing food. We will be back.“

“I ordered two times from their catering menu to feed a crew of about 12-18 people and they were perfect! They were eager to accommodate dietary restrictions, provide utensils, and work around our schedule. The food was great and fed all of us well with leftovers (about 3 trays easily feeds 15+ people with extra.) Everyone loved the food and their great prices helped me stay on budget!“

“The staff here are so nice. We got the three rice combo and it was enough for two people to split. We tried the roast duck, char siu bbq pork, and pork belly. The char siu was our favorite.

This restaurant is take out only and only has street parking. It is right across the street from the Oak Grove T stop.“

“There was a moment where I genuinely spaced out and thought I was just back in a small casual restaurant somewhere in China.
It makes me wonder whether places like this even expect to serve non Chinese speakers. The food is great, the price is reasonable, and more people really should try this type of service and cooking. At the same time, the whole space feels like it runs on its own reality and rhythm. In that sense, writing this entire review in English might not even make sense, because non Chinese speakers reading reviews like this might still choose not to come here. Anyway, this contradiction and the parallel pocket reality are part of the experience itself.“

“Food is authentic! No BS Americanized Chinese food. They got some serious Chinese dishes. I ordered 豆瓣魚片 and 京都排, both were delicious. They serve free jasmine tea. Nice atmosphere. Prices are very very reasonable. Highly recommended.

They have lunch specials too until 3PM Monday to Friday. Our dishes portion were lunch specials. Lunch specials come with one full globe of bowl of rice. You’ll walk out full and happy! Will come back again two years later when my younger child comes to Boston for his college tour.“
