For special occasions, you can reserve a private banquet room, which comes with your own dedicated server. Just be sure to book well in advance, as these rooms are in high demand. Keep in mind that there's also a minimum food and beverage spend for our party, it was $800. Every single dish we ordered was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. Our meal included: The Chili Tofu Skin Crispy Shrimp - highly recommend Na's Prime Angus Ribs - highly recommend Braised Abalone & Pork Belly with Chinese Puffy Pie - highly recommend Shrimp Fried Rice with Bonito - my fav! Beijing Zhajiang Noodles - my fav! Shredded Pork with Sweet Bean Sauce served with handmade steamed Chinese pancakes - skip Boiled Matsutake Mushrooms - skip Fried mixed Mushrooms- skip Braised Abalone with Sea Cucumber - my fav! Every dish was expertly prepared, beautifully garnished, and showcased the attention to detail you'd expect from a Michelin-starred restaurant. If you're celebrating a special occasion or looking to treat yourself to a fine dining experience, this restaurant is well worth the visit. P.s. order the Hot Pear Juice! it was warm, comforting.

I came here for my birthday dinner with a friend and made a reservation via OpenTable in advance. We dined around 5pm and the restaurant wasn't too packed at that time since they just opened. My friend and I ordered a lot of dishes: -Diced Black Pepper Honey Angus Beef: Our favorite dish of the night. I've never had beef that can have a perfectly crispy exterior, but a tender and rare interior. This was delicious and the flavors and textures were on point. A shame that this was only 4 small pieces in one order though. -Braised Pork Belly: This dish was also great. There were large chunks of fat on the meat, but it literally just melts in your mouth. The pork was tender and flavorful. Delicious. -Tofu Skin Salad: I quite liked this dish. A great appetizer. The texture was great and the seasoning wasn't too strong. -Crispy Shrimp: One of the dishes they're known for. The shrimp was large, plump and crispy, but kind of overhyped. -Stir-Fried Mixed Vegetable Noodles: If Pad Thai and Chow Mein had a baby, this would be that dish. A solid noodle dish, but tasted and felt like something you could get at a mom n pop Chinese spot. -Shrimp Fried Rice with Bonito Flakes: Solid shrimp and egg fried rice. I think the bonito flakes are unnecessary though. The flavor from them is distinct and doesn't match with the fried rice in my opinion. -Crispy Tuna Poke Salad: Honestly, this is the weirdest dish I've seen at a Chinese restaurant. It was a fusion of many different things. Crispy rice shells reminiscent of Indian Panipuri filled with a sweet and creamy poke salad reminiscent of Asian fruit salad all served on a bed of chocolate chips? This wasn't bad, but it was too out of the box. -Mushroom Noodles: A free "birthday treat" from the restaurant. To be honest, this felt like they just gave us whatever was lying around in the kitchen. The noodles were too clumpy and the mushroom sauce was pretty earthy. -Lucky Koi Milk Pudding: My friend and I enjoyed this dessert which was also given to us for free on my birthday. It was creamy and not too sweet. The pudding mold design was also on point. -Na's Assorted Flight (Mini): This is good for 2 people to share. The desserts were pretty traditional in taste with a lot of bitter pieces. Not my cup of tea unfortunately. The ambiance was beautiful and the service was great! Overall, while I had some good food here, there were also some misses. The food seemed a bit inconsistent which is why I think they lost their Michelin star twice. I'm not sure if I would go out of my way to dine here again, but if someone invited me I would. This is a spot worth the try though!

It's one of the default lunch spots for us when we can't decide where else to go and everyone likes their food. The one negative I can point out is the parking situation. It does fill up and sometimes difficult to find a parking spot during busy times. We just have to plan to have our lunches a little earlier and carpool from our office. And yes, the glass the teas come in are humongous.

They opened and closed the door for us which was a nice touch because it was busy inside. We ordered the pork ramen, pork buns, and pork soup dumplings. On to the food! Pork Ramen: 3/5 They give you a hefty amount of noodles and pork. They use a thin noodle here which pairs well with the broth. I truly do believe this was around average for ramen as the flavor in the broth was not as strong or savory. The highlight of the entire entree was definitely the pork, which was tender and flavorful. I probably would not order this again. Pork bun: 5/5 The pork buns were soft and fluffy, almost too good looking to eat. There was the right amount of soup and meat inside that made for a wonderful bite full of flavor. Not dry at all. Would recommend ordering this if you visit. Pork Dumplings: 5/5 The star of the show, the dumplings. They were soft and just like the buns, they had the right amount of soup + meat which made for a delicious bite every time. My toddler even ate some and she's usually super picky about meat. Overall, I'd definitely recommend coming here for the other noodles, the dumplings, and buns. You can skip on the ramen. I would 100% come back here to dine in. Quick note that parking gets full pretty quick here.

Obviously, you can't come to a place that has lobster in the menu without ordering lobster, and we got the House Special Lobster (Large) with Garlic Noodle. Other items we ordered were the French Style Beef Cube, Braided Crab Meat & Fish Maw Soup, Beef Mongolian, Crispy Fried Sole Fish, BBQ Fried Rice, Clams with Spicy Sauce, Crispy Fried Squid with Salt and Pepper, and Clams with Black Bean Sauce. The portions are actually quite massive for each dish. All of it was very solid and tasty Chinese food. We were definitely very stuffed after this lunch was over! Service here is solid enough for a Chinese place. They were pretty quick with getting us extra plates to change out our dirty plates and more bowls as needed. And they were quick with the water. But yeah, you do have to flag them down to get their attention. They do have a parking lot here, and we got here early enough on a Sunday where parking wasn't an issue. However, I can see it being a problem on busier days. Boston Lobster is definitely worth a visit if you want solid Chinese food at a fair affordable price. Really good!

It's really why I came here. There was so much meat from the lobster and the noodles were a great addition to the dish. So flavorful and delicious! If you come between 11:30-4:45pm, you can get the lunch special items. The portions were actually huge for the price you're paying. It's available 7 days a week. It's so worth it!

We ordered the Shanghai-style Sweet and Sour Pork, Kung Pao Chicken, Sliced Beef with Onions, Steamed Greenland Halibut, Braised Pork Belly in Brown Sauce, and Stir-Fried Clams with Black Bean Sauce. The portions were large, making it easy to share family-style. The Shanghai-style sweet and sour pork had a nice balance of sweet and tangy flavors. The Kung Pao chicken offered just the right amount of spice. The sliced beef with onions was tender and flavorful. The steamed Greenland halibut was fresh and delicately seasoned, the braised pork belly was rich and melt-in-your-mouth. The clams paired perfectly with the savory black bean sauce. The restaurant has a spacious dining room with beautiful décor and a modern, elegant interior, creating a comfortable atmosphere for family dinners or gatherings. Combined with the generous portions and reasonable prices, it's a great spot for classic Chinese comfort food.

The lady mentioned that the wait is around 30 minutes, but if we're comfortable sharing tables, there's no wait at all. I wanted to be on the waitlist because I wasn't too keen on sharing tables. She agreed and took my name and number. I received a text shortly after, so I kept my phone and notifications on. I spent nearly an hour outside, keeping an eye on my phone to see the status of our table in my phone. Then, I headed inside to find out how long it would take to get seated. Turns out, I needed to check in first so they could add me to the waitlist. I spoke to the lady who took my information down over the phone, know that they hadn't mentioned I needed to check in to be on the waitlist. She explained that they usually don't take our information over the phone and put us on the waitlist. So, I need to check in to be on their waitlist. She didn't apologize, but she kept saying that they don't know if customers will show up, so they can't put us on the waitlist. However, she did say she'd seat us next. I only got to taste a little of each dish, and they were good. But I lost my appetite because I drove 55 minutes just to try their food, and I had some really bad customer service right away in the morning. My friends also enjoyed the food, but did not have big of an appetite by the time we got seated. They were swamped, so no one followed up with us after they served our dishes. The group of eight ladies next to us seemed to get more attention. I know they're super busy, though. I'd suggest checking out the food there! Just a heads-up, if you're with a small group, you might not get the best customer service.

We ended up getting a set for $168 this time, which came with 6 dishes. It's also $35 per lb for lobster, and I asked for the smallest one. Apparently, the smallest one was 4.8 lbs, which was another $168, so I'm not sure if they upsold me. Anyways, the food was fantastic and everyone enjoyed it. This is what I thought about the food we got. House Seafood Soup - Simple and clean soup. Good portion, and it was soothing to eat. Lots of squid. (4/5) Clams with Spicy Sauce - Large clams with tons of meat, and the sauce was fire. Always a good choice. (5/5) Crab with Salt & Pepper - Loved the seasoning, and the flavors were solid. (4.5/5) Thai Style Beef Stew - First time trying this, and it was good. A bit different, but the meat chunks were tasty and the overall flavors were good. (4/5) Sautéed Pea Sprouts - Nicely done vegetable dish. It's simple but refreshing with good flavors. (4/5) Fried Whole Fish - This dish was gone so fast because it was delicious. Nicely fried and not overly seasoned. (5/5) Signature Lobster - I feel like you have to get this here since it's their specialty. It's pricey, but in my opinion, it's the best and freshest lobster in town. Tons of green onions, seasoned well, fresh meat, and lots of lobster roe. (5/5) Service was good, and they didn't automatically add a mandatory tip for a large party. The total came out to around $364, which is pricey, but the food was phenomenal. Parking - Valet only, but they have street parking in front. I parked on the street since there were plenty of spots on a Wednesday, but I assume it gets busy on weekends.
