    Huge Thai guy and can tell the good from the bad and good from great. This place is legit...I knew…read morewhen I saw curry puff on menu. Will have to go in person asap. Delivery had: Curry puff (great!) Pad Thai spicy (I tried to only get like 2-3 out of 5 spice but this thing packed heat regardless. Loved it and big portion. Chicken satay (great)

    Not sure what all the hype is about for this place! We ordered Thai fried rice, green curry and…read morefish cakes. Fish cakes were small and perfectly uniform - almost like they were frozen rather than prepared on site. Green curry had some spice but was mostly one note, there just wasn't much depth of flavor. Vegetables were all cut in huge hunks - both dishes had giant pieces of red bell peppers and onions. Fried rice was pretty bland and barely had any Chinese broccoli in it. Ambiance was bare bones - you order at the counter and they bring you your food and plastic side plates. Half the tables were stacked with boxes and bags of takeout orders. To top it off there's no bathroom, we were told to use the bathroom at another local business. If I'm gonna spend $60 somewhere, I expect to be able to wash my hands before eating and use the restroom. Perhaps there are some specialty dishes that we didn't try but this was my 2nd time ordering from here (I got take out once before) and both times the food was pretty bland. A truly underwhelming experience - especially when there are so many better restaurants in the area.

    This is my "go to" store for all things Asian in cooking...I was reading a review about how the…read moreChinese customers are rude to those of us that only speak English?? I was there just last week and a middle aged "lady" noticed that I was having difficulty finding an item (lite soy, not low sodium). She politely approached and said "you look very lost, what are you looking for?" She spent about 10 minutes helping me with finding the item....plus she gave me some great tips on shopping Asian markets. Now I am in my middle 80s and am well aware of the Asian culture having great "respect" for elders..(sorely absent in today's America) however, my encounter tells me she was just a "very nice person" and would have assisted almost anyon....again...Thank You!

    I have grown to appreciate this Market over the years. This market has many items found in a larger…read moreOriental Markets, but on a smaller scale. The benefit is quicker shopping, smaller line, personal attention and shorter distance to drive which saves time, money and traffic. Price is competitive with with other local markets and sometimes less. This has all the qualities of a local convenience store, but without the rudeness often found these days. The people working in the store do their job, they are helpful and the shelves are well stocked. Worth checking out.

    Ok, but a little disappointing. It must be difficult running a business like this and building a…read morefollowing. I got inspired by watching youtube to make a jambon buerre sandwich - supposedly a popular quick sandwich for Parisians. The sandwich is half a baguette with butter and French bistro ham. I tried searching all over for the French bistro ham with no luck. The only options were online sources with expensive shipping and/or expensive minimum order sizes. Somehow I stumbled upon MA-France nearby in Arlington and they sell jambon-buerre sandwiches. It's a small shop that sells sandwiches, pastries, and a small offering of French food products. Lots of pastries and baked goods like quiche, tarts, cookies, croissants, etc. The cheese offerings were very limited and basic. I can imagine that the cheeses that they sell are the same types and brands that they use for making sandwiches. For example, they sell President brand Brie - that you can also buy at Costco and market basket. Disappointing, but understandable because they can't afford to buy more variety and more expensive offerings without a big enough client base to buy those cheeses before they go bad. Getting back to the sandwich - it was half a baguette with some thick slices of butter and two pieces of French bistro ham. The bread was kind of dense and the crust was more chewy than crispy. I was disappointed that they didn't bother to spread the butter, but if they're not selling enough sandwiches then they're probably keeping the butter in the refrigerator - making it too difficult to spread. When I got home I fixed up the sandwich to my liking. Overall, the sandwich was okay, but not good enough to make me want to go back. At least I was able to solve my hunger for the jambon buerre sandwich.

    It hurts to write a break-up review. Maybe I'll get Laufey to write the song for this…read more This used to be one of my favorite places for croissants in the Boston area. Now it's quite underwhelming. The apricot croissant is now some smaller glorified danish that has no richness or personality. The plain croissant is quite "bready" now, whereas it used to be light and buttery. I have a sneaking suspicion that they have a different croissant supplier now. What saved this spot from a lower grade is that the pain au raisin and chausson aux pommes are passable. Also a save is that they still offer various French products, from soaps to cheeses to canned goods. I have to find a new French bakery in the area.
