Had the crispy chicken scallion wrap with the cucumber salad - perfect combination! An amazingly tasty and memorable meal. Friendly service; looks like a sweet couple who run the place. Definitely looking forward to coming back for more! (veggie dumplings were also good.. Wasn't into the shaobing though)

Little Chinese restaurant that seems to be family owned (not sure). We ordered the pork belly buns ($8), the beef scallion pancake/wrap ($8), and a spicy noodle soup ($12). Was really excited for the deep fried buns but they happened to be out when we went. Food came out quickly, and the beef scallion pancake was great! However, in the future, I will steer clear of the pork belly buns. The pork belly was fatty but far more chewy/rubbery than melt-in-your-mouth as I expected. They have other filling options like chicken, etc., which may be better (haven't tried). My friend had the noodle soup, which was nice and he enjoyed. Might come back for the deep fried buns but not sure! Felt a bit overpriced for the quality, but maybe I would feel differently about a different selection.

Excellent — great food (takeout) and service (family operated). Delicious and very light steamed dumplings (best I’ve had in Boston), and holy-smokes good scallion pancake chicken wrap. Can’t wait to return!

Little nice homey place. Food was solid but nothing really blew me away. Food definitely won me over with strong basic foundation, and every food was served piping hot. Definitely worth the try if you are craving for beef noodle soup.

One of my favorite places to get a bite! I would recommend this to anyone. Amazing owners/staff, they are all very nice and professional. The food is outstanding, there’s not one meal that isn’t tasty! I would definitely recommend the chicken sandwich!

Pretty authentic and a quick place to grab a bite. I got the scallion pancake beef wrap. Anything scallion pancake here is delicious. I also recommend the shrimp steamed dumplings. The inside is a bit small if it becomes busy and you are looking for a seat, but take out is also an option here too.
