Even when it's busy though (which is almost every time we go - but it is lively and has a good atmosphere), our service is solid, they are quick to take our orders, clear plates, bring food out, and refill water! The food we ordered was fresh, hot, and delicious! Only gripe is that the portions aren't the largest for the price (definitely priced a bit higher than comparable asian restaurants I've been to), but if you're craving authentic food and are in the area, this is the spot!

I wish the cashew chicken didn't have celery. If you dine in you have a choice of soup ( egg drop or hot/sour soup). I asked for no celery over the phone but they added celery still. Portion size is small compared to rice and had the same with bigger portion and more flavor at the Framingham location I've had the lunch special and other dishes at the Framingham location and prefer Framingham over this location. Service was quick and not a bad deal for $14 after tax. It is busy in there and if you aren't a spice fan make sure to ask for modifications. The cashew chicken is not spicy.

My fiancé had made special arrangements for my birthday here. I have never been to The Melting Pot…read morebefore, but he has and has always spoke highly of it so what better way to celebrate than to share his experiences with me during my birthday. The restaurant appears small upon entry, but when we were called to our reserved table, there's a doorway behind the host desk that leads to the back rooms which were very private. The hostess were all very friendly. She lead us to our table where were shortly greeted by our server. She was amazing as well. She was very gracious and had our table setup with the flowers, card, chocolates, and champagne my fiancé had arranged and we started there. She asked the occasion and attempted to get to know us better to make our experience more personalized and a small cake was also brought over. She explained everything in detail and how their menu works which helped us (more me) decide on the best option for myself. There was a lot to choose from. We had appetizer options which we selected the loaded baked potato one. It came with chunks of apple, bread, pretzels, and various veggies such as broccoli, mushroom, carrots and tomatoes. For our main course we selected a broth and different meats, veggies, and seafood and added a couple lobsters. The only issue I had was one of the lobsters was a bit old and didn't taste right. The shell was also already turning a bit red, so it must've been near something warm. Either way, the rest of our meal and experience was overall great. I gave 4 stars because of one of the lobsters being old. The other lobster was fine though. Overall, we had a great experience and I would go back. We left very full and had lots of food leftover so make sure you go hungry.

Now I'm debating between three and four stars, and the sole reason is price. Man, that was expensive for what it was and what you got. We agreed we would come back, but maybe once a year.

Service was strange... hot tea came to table right away and was watered down and minimal tea flavor. I ordered a sesame chicken lunch special which came with soup egg drop soup, spring roll , white rice. I ordered a side of beef teriyaki . Waitress asked 1 or 2 teriyaki ? I assumed how many teriyaki sticks or small or large options? I said 2. Egg drop soup and spring roll shows up with duck sauce... egg drop soup was very good. Spring roll was excellent and filling was fresh. Then Next 2 orders of beef teriyaki with 4 sticks each show up??? She takes away my duck sauce from my spring roll... and leaves me with no duck sauce for my beef teriyaki? I now ask for duck sauce for teriyaki? She brings out a hot spicy sauce instead of duck sauce ? The sesame chicken was very good but more sweet and sour sauce flavor than sesame ? The beef teriyaki was extremely tough meat and I had to ask for a knife to cut up? No glass of water as I saw other tables getting water? I had to ask for water as tea wasn't doing it for me ? Then another duck sauce shows up I didn't ask for but glad it did arrive and was needed? Teriyaki had great flavor but tough like beef jerky and one order would have been enough to tolerate without the confusion of getting 2 orders and then also charged for two ? I found the service confusing and not a smooth outing? Then both the waitresses disappeared while waiting for the check . I asked for a glass of water at this point. No fortune cookie, pineapple or exit offering with the check? All in all I was confused.. but I would eat again here and assume staff trying ... next time I'll be very clear what 1 vs 2 means. The menu does look many good options and convenience with parking, location and nice dining room. I would have rate 4-5 stars but the teriyaki wasn't tender and too tough to enjoy.

For a late 2pm Saturday lunch I stopped by Taipei Gourmet. The establishment was one-third full, so…read moreI received a seat immediately. I ordered the beef noodle soup ($15.95) and vegetarian leek pie ($9.95). Both came out within 10 minutes. The beef noodle soup had the thin flat wheat noodle ubiquitous in Taiwanese noodle soups. The soup was well-flavored with stock. Too many of these sorts of places over-rely on soy sauce, making a salty yet thin and underflavored bowl. Not here. I will nitpick and say that I would like larger chunks of beef, not the sort of cubed stew beef you see at the supermarket. The vegetarian leek pie (as it's called in the menu) is a pastry stuffed with chive (not leek), egg, and vermicelli. It was decently salted and hot. The portion sizes were quite satisfying as well. Closing thought - this place has, so far, the closest to what I would consider a decent bowl of Taiwanese beef noodle soup I've had in the Boston metro area so far. I'm always on the lookout for it

Price has increased 20% since my last visit. Forgivable…read more Flavor has decreased 75%. Unforgivable. Every time I've had the Double Cooked Bacon in the past I have needed 3 or more napkins. One for the lap and at least 2 more to mop sweat from my head. The food was so perfectly spiced, peppery, tasty, with a lip tingling afterglow. This time? The napkin never left my lap and there was not even a bead of sweat on my brow. No lips tingling. This food was, in a word, boring. OK food, but not the drive out of my way good that it used to be. The portion proportions have also changed for the worse. Much less bacon. Much more rice. I feel like there should have been more meat for the money. I probably will not be back, and after more than 15 years of patronage, I'm sad.

The on-line ordering process is simply and then allows for pick up (they also do deliver) within their restaurant without the need to interact with anyone at the restaurant. Food is clearly labeled and on a shelf at the requested time. Parking is right in front next to several other restaurants and a bakery. Appetizers and entrees are good in a very traditional sense. Nothing too special, but everything is good and as to be expected. For this review we ordered vegan table fried rice, vegetable lo mein, pan fried pork dumplings, General TSO's chicken, sautéed string beans and chicken with mixed vegetables.
