It also comes with soup, and salad, to start - and is more than enough for one person. The fish is fresh, and the rice is perfect. The lychee martini is also delicious - and very moderately priced.

I visited this restaurant for the first time today, and it will certainly be my last. Ordered…read morealmost $100 worth of food, made up of 5 combination dinner dishes. 3 of these were rice plates, with shrimp lobster sauce, and egg foo yung, all with fried rice. When I got home with these take outs, 30 min ride away, I opened my takeout boxes to have lunch. The two fried rice plates were spoiled, Not "not too fresh" or "a bit stale".. They had that outright spoiled smell, like when you leave food out un-refrigerated for about 3 days. I had to put these in the trash. Then I smelled the shrimp lobster sauce, which were packaged separately from the spoiled rice and didn't smell spoiled.. I had fresh white rice at home, so I added the lobster sauce to make my own lunch plate. Then I put the lobster sauce into my mouth and my head was filled with question marks.. The lobster sauce was SWEET! I've had lobster sauce from 2 or 3 hundred Chinese takeout places. Some are more salty than others, some have a black bean taste; it varies. But this is the first time when I've had lobster sauce where the dominant taste was sweetness. That's not what I wanted. It's like having coffee but instead of sweet someone added salt. Or having spaghetti but with maple syrup. It tasted weird, and unpleasant. I had to throw this out too. So, out of 5 dishes, 3 were spoiled, 1 was weirdly and inappropriately sweet, and the last one, according to my son who ate it, said it "wasn't very good". I write many reviews, and read them too. When I see a one star review citing horrible customer service or whatever, I mostly attribute those to the owners of nearby rival restaurants, trying to kill the business of a competitor. Here I am giving a one star review for the first time. If you feel skeptical, please feel free to read some of my other restaurant reviews. I tend to be very detailed and descriptive, and I call it like it is. I have no interest in artificially boosting or hurting a restaurant's ratings. I am just a guy wo eats out a lot and like to share my personal experience and opinions. So, for this time, my advice is to stay away from this very bad restaurant.

Always an excellent time at Alba on 53!…read more What I love is its just minutes away from Hanover Crossing so you can do a little shopping, see a movie and then come here for dinner. Sunday evenings you would think aren't usually busy, but this past Sunday was crowded but luckily there were open seats at the bar. We love sitting at the bar. It's like a front row seat to all the action! They also have a great wine list. I ordered a glass from Burgundy and my husband had a beer. We skipped the starters and went straight to the entrees. I had their Roasted Cod which I did enjoy but lacked a bit of flavor. Although the sauce that came with it was superb! My husband had their Burger which looked nice and juicy. Oh and they have the best fries too. I couldn't help myself in grabbing just one. If you have not yet been to Alba on 53 then I highly recommend you add this as your next date night spot! Cheers~

In our case, a company team holiday gathering The service was just as impressive as the food -more to come on that! Our server was attentive, knowledgeable, and made sure everything was paced perfectly without feeling rushed. Alright I have a lot to say about the food cause I ate a whole lot! Can't take me on a company sponsored holiday dinner and expect me to not try... so many things!! No way I could resist $1 Oysters until 6pm. And so a couple dozen of em while we waited for the party to arrive! Duxbury Oysters insanely fresh & chucked to order Colossal Shrimp Cocktail Holy freaking jumbo size massive shrimp served with cocktail sauce & horseradish Alba Antipasto cured meat and cheese, grilled and marinated vegetables & honeycomb Chicken Wings Proper wings with a lot of meat cooked beautifully with harissa, za'atar & served with blue cheese Meatballs Live a good homemade meatball. mint tzatziki, feta, toasted pita Now for the main event... in comes the 36oz. Tomahawk Steak I was challenged to embark on this monster of a meat that was the most delicious and beautifully cooked steak I've ever had.

This was our first time back to GG in a couple of years - yikes! And not gonna lie, it was…read moredisappointing. We had takeout, which was packed carefully and packaged as neatly as ever - the hot items in one bag, the cold items in another bag -to make it home in a reasonable time. Where things went wrong: Chicken Teriyaki skewers had zero teriyaki glaze and instead were coated - WELL COATED - in a non-removeable green curry covering. There was absolutely no connection between these skewers and teriyaki. None of us cares for curry, so that was trashed since the cat sat back and said "absolutely not!" Pad Thai with the Chicken and Shrimp option had two (2) medium shrimp, so I guess that counts as multiple shrimp . . . the chicken was dry but at least it was plain, no curry. However, unlike the well coated curried skewers, there was virtually no Pad Thai sauce. The sauce that makes the bland rice noodles come to life was MIA. After much discussion and pulling the stuck together noodles apart, we did think that a very scant spoonful of sauce had been added to the very center of the container, making it a bit more Pad Thai-ish than the bare noodles in the other 2/3 of the takeout container. Pulled out the chicken bits and those two shrimp and trashed the rice noodles because I didn't even have a store-bought packet of Pad Thai sauce on hand to zhush it up! On the cold side, the go-to order of sushi Chirashi was good, fortunately because we were down two dishes out of three! Note to self: live and learn, keep to the Japanese side of the menu, and stop expecting a restaurant to do more than one style of cooking well, it never happens the way you hope it will!

It was really great. I am a white woman raised by white parents. In the 80s my dad went rogue into taekwondo for a black belt and immersed himself fully in the culture. He began making Szechuan food. I've eaten a lot of Chinese and Asian food and i don't usually go for it because there's so much bad and greasy. I prefer Japanese, usually, but when my dad started cooking Szechuan, we tried a wide variety of very authentic restaurants in Boston Chinatown, I know what I'm eating. This one hits the mark. We tried three things for range and shared. A beautiful rare black pepper and sesame seared tuna over salad, with super fresh fish, the level of pepper was on point. It was great. We had the pu pu platter for one which was a ton of food and delicious. The spare ribs were tender, the marinade on the chicken wings was so nice and the crab Rangoon were little fatties and fully stuffed with the perfect blend of crab and cream. We had the crazy chow fun (foon) with beef but without the spiciness so it was regular beef chow fun. Again the meat was tender and the wide noodles had the right amount of sauce. I had a scorpion bowl, it hit. I've seen some ugly reviews on here and honestly think two of the people whose last names start with S worked together on bashing this place, not cool Brian and Jen. Take out food will always be compromised by packing it, steam and travel. Don't judge food like that. This is the place for a fun first date, get a scorpion bowl for two. Get lit and share the Pu Pu platter to start. Check your compatibility on the old school Chinese zodiac placemat, love this. The ambiance is sultry red and dimly lit. People were definitely enjoying themselves. Gave me all the feels and memories of dark lounges, dens of iniquity, red lamps of my twenties. Ahhh...miss that time. I'm a hard sell.

It was 6:30 and there was only one other table with 2 couples in the entire place which was not a good sign but we stayed anyway because by then we were really hungry.

I was appalled but said nothing as it was not my business. The food was good but not as hot as it should have been. We certainly would have enjoyed it more if it came to us hot. I usually tip 20% but I gave her 15% and that was a gift! Someone needs to inform these people that how one is greeted in a restaurant is of utmost importance and leaves a long lasting impression.

I've always liked how Legal manages to get everything on the table while still hot and crispy. A long way from the old, original days when food arrived in fits & starts and you might be finishing your entree while the rest of your party was just getting served! A lobster roll (original with mayo- yum!) in s crispy brioche roll was filled with claws and meat to full. I will say the lobster, while cooked perfectly, needed a touch of seasoning to turn up the flavor. Giant serving of fish & chips made one of us happy, as did a big Greek salad for our third. The entrees came with the usual ubiquitous coleslaw and fries, just the most delish versions of both -I admit to scarfing down those hot, salty, crispy-on-the-outside-fluffy-on-the-inside fries before taking a bite from that overstuffed lobster roll! Outside seating when the good weather comes, too! While prices aren't bargains, premium quality food and impeccable service in a casual, relaxed environment. Legal has been one of our favorite restaurants since the early 80's and is still one of the best!
