    First time here tonight and had a great experience! A friend had won a gift certificate to this restaurant at an auction and invited us to go to dinner. The interior is very cool, cozy, and the cool red paint design on the glass windows makes it all feel very charming and comfortable. We did have a bit of a wait for our table despite having reservations. We ordered a bunch of appetizers to share between the 4 of us - scallion pancake, bourbon chicken wings, spicy salmon rolls, pork belly buns, sliced beef, eggplant, hot n sour soup, golden potato and lemongrass soup. I think my favorite of those was the eggplant dish - perfectly cooked and flavorful with ginger and soy. Wings were good too. The soups were nice I liked the hot n sour one. The lemongrass soup was a creamy one quite tasty but also quite filling and rich. For entrees, we ordered the roasted soy glazed salmon, the Indonesian fried rice, bok choy and surf and turf noodles. Everything was good. We were all so full and also had leftovers. But decided to order dessert too - everyone loved the vanilla bean ice cream (the menu described it as a parfait) with orange granita - really generous too - 3 scoops of ice cream and the orange sorbet which was more granular than a sorbet more like very finely crushed ice. Very refreshing! The banana caramel crème brûlée was really good too - nice and creamy. The lemon ginger mousse was very creamy but I thought had a bit too much of ginger. I think the deserts were hands down everyone's favorite part of the meal despite everyone pretty much denying they wanted any! Service was very friendly by our server Julie who was delightful! Lovely young lady. Overall great experience!!

    Great experience! Our server, Antonio, really made it fun! He was super helping making suggestions and guiding us with the menu. The drinks were excellent (blood orange margarita). We shared several dishes as well. Very nice ambiance, almost hidden from the street... we weren't even sure if it was open from the outside, but that played nicely into the aesthetic.

    AMAZING way to spend a girl's night out! I was in town for work and one of my coworkers wanted to show me what Boston is all about. I told her I LOVE Asian fusion cuisine; she hit the nail on the head bringing me here. All the dishes on the menu looked delicious that I had to over order. However, is it really over ordering if we completely demolished everything happily?! Not only were ALL our dishes soooo delicious, they were healthy as well. In my opinion, that is the best combination when it comes to food. Lots of veggie options. Out of everything we had, my favorite has to be the papaya salad. It was so refreshing and packed with complex Asian fusion flavors. Soooooo yummy. The eggplant was nice and soft. I'm happy they did not skimp us on any dish, especially the mussels! It was a huge bowl of them. Overall, I would love to come back. Our server was great. He just came back from China and was raving about how good the wontons are here. The ambiance can be described as a modern fun casual place. Super fun place to go hang out and eat with friends!

    I've been to Myers and Chang a few times over the years and it's always been good but our most recent visit was a reminder of why it's become a long term, higher end staple of the Boston food scene. The food is really excellent - every dish was a hit, from the deep flavor of the wok-charred udon noodles to the light, crispiness of the salmon rolls with a wasabi mustard sauce that gives you just a little tingle in your nose. The menu is broad and diverse without being overwhelming. Our waitress was attentive and service was great. They have a nice selection of house cocktails as well as a beer, wine and sake list. Definitely recommend!

    Came here for an early dinner and boy does it get packed on the weekends. The restaurant is small and tables are very close to one another. But what made it all worth it was the food! Everything we ate was spectacular. MVPs of the night were the miso glazed carrots and papaya salad.

    My Bostonian friend took me here and I am so glad she did! It is very stylish and we found parking easily. Our server was one of the sweetest people I've ever met and was very attentive. We ordered hot and sour soup, calamari, pork and chicken bao, cucumbers, wasabi deviled eggs, pork dumplings, and coconut cream pie. The deviled eggs were amazing! The pork dumplings and hot and sour soup were also delicious. Everything else was good, but not amazing. I did not care for their version of the coconut cream pie. My friend also got a Vietnamese iced coffee and she liked it. Overall, it was good and I would come back.

    Myers + Chang is a tasty Asian fusion spot in Boston! The menu was very creative and the food itself very tasty. The resteraunt was very busy on a weekend night so we sat at the bar (which took about a 15-20 min wait itself) so be prepared to have a bit of a wait before getting seated. Sitting at the bar gave us the perfect vantage point to see the cooking take place which added to the experience! Definitely will be coming back

    Pineapple Express cocktail house-infused pinapple vodka and Thai basil
    Alison C.

    4.5 stars I had been wanting to visit Myers + Chang for YEARS, so I was thrilled to finally make it there recently. It certainly did not disappoint. I had kept a dedicated, vigilant eye on the reservation page in hopes of securing a spot and was thankful it worked out. When we arrived, we had to wait for about 10 minutes until our table was ready, since there was such a large crowd for the small space and limited staff members. We noticed the hostesses were also bussing tables and checking in on customers, and our server was only one of two in the dining room. Despite how crazed these folks might have been, the staff remained calm, polite, and friendly. I gave them a lot of credit! Once we were seated, I decided to order a cocktail from their interesting, Asian-inspired list. I settled on the Pineapple Express, which used house-infused pineapple vodka and Thai basil, making it sweet, floral, and herbaceous. It was an excellent drink! In terms of the food, the menu was vast and affordable, especially for the large portions we received! The list had also made sure to note the allergens in each dish. Our party of three ordered a good deal of items each and loved most of them. However, each dish was very salty, so after sharing several plates, the overall salt level was a lot to handle. The Untraditional Scallion Pancake had more onions on top of it than inside of it. It was also much doughier than I was used to. It was my least favorite item. The Sweet + Sour Brussels Sprouts, on the other hand, were the best I had ever had! They were cooked just enough to be crispy without being complete charred. The texture was sheer perfection, and the marinade was tangy and delicious. I also adored the Pan-Roasted, Soy-Glazed Salmon. The medium-sized, Loch Duart (Scottish) filet had the perfect amount of sweet glaze, and it was served over pickled cucumbers, crispy onions, and white rice. The fish was ideally cooked, and the plain rice was helpful in absorbing the salty sauce. Lastly, the Kimchi Quinoa Bokkeumbap was an unique take on Korean bibimbap, as it used quinoa as its grain, rather than crispy rice. It did, similarly, contain spicy kimchi and bulgogi beef, while adding smoky, roasted pistachios for crunch. I enjoyed the dish, but would suggest it only to those that really enjoy kimchi, as it had a great deal of that spicy, gochujang flavor. The massive bowl would also have benefitted from the inclusion of more beef. After all of that food, we were, sadly, way too full to order dessert, which was a particular bummer since everything sounded so delicious! I adored my Myers + Chang experience, but I would definitely be more careful about ordering next time to better manage the portions and rich sauces.

    Wok Charred Udon Noodles with Tofu Bok Choy
    Ria A.

    Food - 2/5 Service - 2.5/5 (everyone was nice but we were ignored so this is me being kind) Ambiance - 4/5 Ok so I remember coming to Myers and Chang a long time ago post SoWa and really liking it. Cue me 5+ years later with a guest in town and deciding to take a chance! Unfortunately, it was a bad gamble. I should have listened to the other reviews! We ordered four items to share for two people (what they recommend), and the only pro is that it was definitely more than enough food. We got the hakka eggplant, the wok charred udon with tofu and bok choy, the tea smoked pork ribs, and Thai pork lettuce wraps. It was ALL bland and lacking seasoning, so we requested salt, pepper and something spicy, which did help but was disheartening when you're out at a restaurant - we want food not ingredients! My guest at one point mentioned that some of the eggplant pieces didn't just taste a little bland but also a little raw and undercooked. To her, the pork ribs were basically a bland "block of meat" and there was not enough sauce at the bottom to dip it on. The only item that required minimal doctoring to us was the lettuce wraps because it came with a side sauce. (But no veggies? Just lettuce and pork meatballs and a handful of herbs? Sad.) It's also frustrating when this is a fancy Asian fusion place where the rice is not included and is a separate charge because then the food better be good to make up for that! Other issue was the service: I am not blaming our waiter Jake as the restaurant seemed understaffed but there were a few instances where we had to ask multiple times for things or a food item would be dropped off without a chance for us to ask for anything (serving spoons, chili oils or sauces, etc). Multiple times the food went cold because something we asked for hadn't arrived or we had to catch someone's attention to ask for it again. We packed most of the food as leftovers because my plan is to doctor the food and make it much better, and so we went home and ate something else. TLDR: Think of going to Myers & Chang as paying for an ingredients meal! I'd rather walk to Chinatown and have better food with maybe a less nice ambiance. If you love Asian food and need a blander diet, this is the place for you. Otherwise, steer clear.

    Nasi Goreng (Indonesian Fried Rice) - good but salty and too much pineapple
    Scott B.

    If you haven't heard of Meyers & Chang, it is well know and has a good reputation with the Instagram influencer types in and around Boston (and those who are visiting from other places). It's also owned by celebrity chef Joanne Chang who is well known for her Taiwanese recipes (and sticky buns apparently). All in all, we enjoyed our visit to Meyers & Chang, and my actual star rating, if I'm being honest, would be 3.25 (which I rounded down to 3 for this review since Yelp doesn't have a way to grant partial stars). In other words, it was definitely good, but it wasn't as great as many of the influencers purport it to be. For details, see below for my thoughts on some of the dishes we tried. Apps: * Mama Chang's Pork + Chive Dumplings - This was pretty good; they weren't the best I've had, but they were yummy enough. * Crispy Salmon Roll - Get this; it was one of the best things we tried. It was unique and very tasty! Mains: * Wild Boar Dan Dan Noodles - Kinda one-note with little real depth of flavor, honestly... and WAY too salty. * Nasi Goreng (Indonesian Fried Rice) - A little bland, also one-note and too salty. And, IMHO, the pineapple was too much. Final thoughts: Being from the south originally, I love me some salt, but the entrées on this visit were really just too salty. Maybe we ordered the wrong thing... maybe it was a bad night... who knows. I would likely give Myers & Chang another try and order different things b/c the apps were pretty good overall.

    Ashley's Birthday Cake
    Austin Z.

    The lunar new year chicken wontons were the star of the show! All dishes came hot, fresh, and delicious. The dessert of Ashley's Birthday Cake was also amazing, can't recommend enough.

    My friend and I stopped by for dinner after visiting the Sowa Winter Market. The place was not packed since it was a Wednesday. The service was friendly, but the Asian fusion food was so-so and overpriced. The dishes seem more tapa-style and over-seasoned. Lemony Shrimp Dumplings with kimchi-yogurt sauce $15 The dumplings were a little sour and did not have much shrimp. The sauce did not go with it. The kimchi yogurt did not balance the dumpling flavor; more yogurt, no kimchi flavor. Short Rib Bo Kho (Vietnamese Stew) with crispy leeks, grilled baguette $28 More than two pieces of baguette were needed for the stew, especially since the stew was too salty. There is no way you can eat the stew itself without more bread and rice. Shrimp Toast with golden + buttery, extra shrimpy, seasonal jam $14 I wish the shrimp toast had more shrimp, but the toast was smooth. I like their seasonal jam. Hakka Eggplant with Thai basil, red pepper flake $13 The eggplant was cooked perfectly with mild sauce, so it was better to eat it with rice.

    Tea-Smoked Pork Spare Ribs
    Justin G.

    Meyers & Chang is a pretty small restaurant. We came here mid-week and were able to walk in and sit at the bar. The menu is large and varied with so many great options. Based on our experience, we ordered a few dishes that we would absolutely get again! The server suggested about 2-3 dishes per person, so to be safe we ordered 6 dishes. This was a bit too much even for two hungry people. I would recommend 4-5 dishes for two people, if you want to finish everything you order. What we drank: - Urban Cowboy: chili-infused rye, ginger, lime. This was refreshing but also spicy! What we ate: - Mama Chang's Pork + Chive Dumplings: This is a must get - Un-Traditional Scallion Pancake: This is a must get. The "Un-traditional" part is that this is focaccia scallion pancake - Korean Fried Chicken Bun: This is a must get - Taiwanese Cool Dan Dan Noodles: These were great - Tea-Smoked Pork Spare Ribs: Very smoky, we would not get this again - Black Pepper Shanghai Surf + Turf Noodles: This was very good

You get to pick three tins, and it also comes with lobster, bread, butter, pickled vegetables, and other accompaniments. It ended up being a really fun experience, especially if you've never explored high-quality tinned seafood before. We also got the lobster roll and the snow crab toast. The lobster roll was exactly what you'd want.. warm, buttery, packed with lobster, and on a perfectly toasted bun. The crab toast was another winner and disappeared way too fast. My biggest complaint had nothing to do with the food though. There were fruit flies everywhere. They kept flying around our table and landing near the food throughout the meal. At a casual seafood shack I'd probably shrug it off, but at a restaurant charging these prices with this kind of upscale vibe, it felt pretty unacceptable and honestly took away from the experience. Overall, I really enjoyed the food and would come back for the tinned fish platter alone, but I hope they get the bug problem under control. For the amount you're paying, that's not something customers should have to deal with.

Note: Some bartenders make you feel guilty for saying something about a drink you ordered and did not like. But, here at Moon Bar, Abby was so gracious to make me something that I will enjoy. Hats off to her:) Food: Since it was restaurant week we just shared everything. For starters we ordered the Tuna Tartare that was excellent. Then, we had Piri-Piri Chicken Thighs that were also good but quite spicy. For dessert, we shared the Caribbean Tiramisu, which was great. It was a tough choice between this and the Guava Cheesecake.

Everything is done "top notch ". Whether you are a traveler or a local, it can be either a special night out, or a regular place to frequent. Extra munchies are an added plus. Everything is slightly higher priced, but sometimes, you get what you pay for. I have been coming here for decades...since the old Ritz Carlton days, and still appreciate the revolution of this lovely spot.

    We visited on January 11th, a few weeks prior to my wedding. This was a day I had planned for…read moremonths with my daughter and future stepdaughter, an important and meaningful occasion, and the experience fell significantly below expectations. In advance, I stopped into the hotel to confirm that a gluten-free guest could be accommodated and was assured this would be handled. In reality, the accommodation was inadequate and, at times, unacceptable. While the rest of us were served scones, my stepdaughter was given cut fruit in their place, and told that was all they had to accommodate.The dessert course consisted of what appeared to be basic gluten-free cookies, misrepresented as something more gourmet - egg nog cookies??? This lack of preparation was both disappointing, upsetting and avoidable. The broader experience was equally concerning. We were subjected to an unsolicited and uncomfortable "lesson" on tea service, which detracted from what should have been a relaxed and celebratory occasion. While trying to enjoy the time with the girls, being a lifelong tea drinker and someone who has been to many times at your establishment and its various incarnations, this is something I have never experienced. The food quality was poor (scones were clearly reheated and stuck to the cloth napkin they were wrapped in), and there were notable service lapses, including being served water in a visibly shattered glass. Additionally, when hot water was added to refresh the tea, my stepdaughter's pot curdled and had to be replaced. It was especially disappointing, as I mentioned that I had stopped in and spoken with the concierge, and was assured, as they had called the kitchen while I stood there that they readily accommodated gluten-free. There are numerous places in the city that could have done this, and if you had just told me that you could not do so, I would have booked us elsewhere. I chose not to raise the multiple issues in the moment so as not to disrupt what was meant to be a special day for the girls and me. However, the total cost exceeded $500, and the experience did not come close to justifying that price point! Do not recommend.

    Such a fun experience and honestly such a deal for how many drinks and food you get! Definitely…read moreneed reservations, even on a weekday. You have to enter the building with a small fox picture, go down a set of stairs and check in at the counter of said restaurant before they lead you into the back where the speakeasy is. The menu is "set" in that they have a particular cuisine focus for the night and the four food dishes are predetermined as well as the first drink. That being said, you get to order three more drinks from their cocktail menu that range from lighter to more spirit forward, ending with more dessert type cocktails. All the drink flavors were so unique and a fun twist. The food was actually very substantial. Good flavors as well. Our favorite dishes were the lamb cigars (large egg roll shape with eggplant and spices) and the whole branzino. Everything was good though. Service was a very friendly and they were open about the fact that if you didn't like a drink they'd make you another one.

    Man I love this place…read more Reservations are a must and it is a little tricky to find. Look for the fox on the outside door and go downstairs. We sat at the bar and Ada was our bartender. She was great! Really enjoyed talking with her and she had great drinks recommendations. The food was delicious and very unique which was refreshing. Its a 2 hour experience with 4 drinks, 3 food courses and a dessert. You definitely wont be hungry after. Highly recommend for a date night.
