I've heard rumors around this being the go to Chinese spot and I can believe it. Tasty food with a pretty solid selection. Definitely felt like they were upselling especially on lobster, though we were already going to order it. Food was delicious but felt like the servings were slightly smaller than I'm used to, not sure if it was just me. Have to help maintain the classic Chinese spot rating where it can't be perfect because the best Chinese restaurants are no thrills and sassy but delicious. Girlfriend was craving green beans and luckily, they were willing to do a stir fry green bean with garlic. We typically get a green bean with XO sauce which has the spice and additional flavor, but this hit the spot. Mayo shrimp with broccoli was basically honey walnut shrimp and delicious. read more

A total hole in the wall downstairs restaurant in Boston Chinatown, reminds me of my youth going to eat with family in the 70s in SF Chinatown. The portions were large and dining room was packed with a line out the door. We ordered Salt pepper porkshops Black bean sauce chicken over rice Beef bean spouts chow fun Very Cantonese vibe. When you get the bill, waitstaff will ask if you can give the tip in cash. The decor and bathroom is not the cleanliness but food is very tasty. read more

My cousin and I stopped at this restaurant late in the evening after going to a basketball game. The service was cordial and efficient. The food came out quickly. And our server was attentive to our needs. For food, we ordered the fried squid with salt and jalapeño peppers, Hot and sour soup, and beef chow fun. All of them were delicious. We wanted to particularly point out the fried squid dish. It was incredibly tasty. Would definitely order again. The ambience for the restaurant was quiet, however, this was later in the evening, and we were the only ones in the restaurant aside from the staff. read more

Came here for a late night dinner on a Saturday night. The restaurant itself is very an assuming as you have to walk down stairs to find it. The food reminded of our favorite chinese restaurant back in Milwaukee but with more seafood options since Boston has the ocean. The food was solid, nothing to salty or fishy. Everything cooked to perfection with a touch of freshness. The server were nice to us & efficient. I saw the rewards by the door and matt damon reviewed the spot in 2004 for its ginger scallion lobster so glad it was the best in town! My dad loved it especially after he had a sad lobster experience at legal seafood. This meal gave us hope in seafood outside of the boston clam chowder! read more

A literal hole in the wall. Visited Boston and wanted to try authentic chinese food. Not your typical americanized dishes but real chinese family style dishes. Although there were a lot of mixed reviews about this place we decided to give it a shot. First off, it is FREEZING in there. They got that AC blasting so keep that in mind. Service was your typical, fast paced busy waitress vibe. Some of the ladies speak english a little better than others but overall everyone worked efficiently and were kind. From the outside, it may not look like a "good" place but every dish we got was 10/10. If I had to choose my top choice, it would be the scallops I believe one order comes with two It looks very bland bc there's no color but PLEASE try it! it has tons of flavor and taste super fresh. The fried pork chops was super crispy on the outside but juicy on the inside. It looked dry but no very easy to bit and juicy. The black bean clams was also another hit. We saw a lot of customers on yelp ordered it and we gave it a shot. Clams were not small at all. They give you a lot. And its not that sweet. Overall, if I lived in Boston, I would definitely come back! read more

Peach farm is a casual restaurant with lazy susan rotating table that makes accessing food easy for everyone! Our table seated 7 people for reference. Service was alright; the servers can come off a bit aggressive and demanding, but everything came out on time and nothing went wrong. Standout items were the pork chop and duck dishes! The pork chops were seasoned well and had good texture, making it my favorite dish of the night. The duck was a close second with its soft, juicy texture and sweet and salty marinade. The dessert was some sort of soup with sago, taro chunks, and squash(?) chunks that was super tasty and came out warm, which is nice with the falling temperature these days. read more

Where do I even begin with Peach Farm? We've been here several times, and I was surprised to realize I hadn't written a review yet--it's long overdue. We recently visited to meet up with family from the city. After heading downstairs to the basement-level dining area, we were warmly greeted by the hostess and promptly seated. A pot of tea arrived quickly, giving us just enough time to start debating what to order (always the toughest part!). Our go-to starter is the chicken fingers for the kids--it's a must every time. From there, we ordered a spread that included Shrimp with Mayo, Malaysian Tofu, Beef with String Beans, Crispy Fried Chicken, Sweet and Sour Pork, Stir-Fried Pea Pod Stems, Salt and Pepper Calamari and Pork, and Crispy Tofu with Shrimp. As always, the food came out hot, fresh, and absolutely delicious. The flavors were spot-on, and everything was cooked perfectly. Our server was attentive, friendly, and more than accommodating throughout the meal. If you're in the area and craving authentic, traditional Chinese food, Peach Farm never disappoints. It remains one of our favorite spots. read more

Popped into Peach Farm for dinner and it was so good! I honestly forgot how much I liked eating at Peach Farm, it's definitely been a while since I last ate here. With all the newer restaurants opening up more closer by, I don't go out to Chinatown as much as I used to, to eat Chinese food, HOWEVER, Peach Farm is a classic at this point & is still very yummy! I highly recommend if you're looking for some delicious Chinese food & are in Chinatown. Staff is also very nice!! read more

I am not sure if this is consistent within the whole restaurant, but we were seated at a table receiving direct airstreams from the AC vent. It was cold. Regarding the food, we ordered: - Peking duck: the taste was good, although the layer of fat under the skin was quite fatty. Also the duck was not served with the usual side of cucumbers. 7/10 - Stir-fried watercress: there was so much veg. But it tasted good! It was very standard Chinese veg. 8/10 Overall, good experience. I would return to try their other fishes. They had many options and the menu was large. read more

Small understated joint with an emphasis on seafood. After years of wanting to try it, finally hit this bucket list joint and I'm kicking myself for not going sooner. Wings: Jumbo whole wings (connected), extra crispy, extra juicy, extra loaded with herbs and spices. Although I wondered how spectacular they'd be if they had a glaze, they really didn't need one. A flavor and textural triumph. Scallion Pancake: Thin, crisp, fairly ordinary, but with very good ginger sauce. Good cling, slightly thicker than usual, good ginger content. Sizzling Flounder: This dish didn't present much volume, but well composed, tender of fish, well complemented by the rustic-cut vegetables (mostly onion and pepper), and coated with a black bean sauce that supported rather than dominated. No glop here. I'd get this again. Crispy Fried Roast Duck: Got the small order and it's still huge. More importantly, the duck was very crisp of skin and as juicy and succulent as can be. Simple, thin topping (more of a light squirting) of mostly soy sauce that gave it just a little extra rather than dominating. Very nicely done indeed. Not only would I get it again, I'd have a hard time not getting it every time. Broccoli in Oyster Sauce: Large pieces either thick stalks and flowery leaves intact. Again, more of a light sprinkling of sauce rather than a thick, voluminous sauce. In this dish I think more and thicker would be better, but still well cooked to bright green, keeping the crunch alive. Service: Not enough servers to adequately handle the room. No negligence or long waits, but with many tables ordering and receiving dishes, it took a while to get the server's attention. Not a huge deal, but noticeable. read more

This place is ok. They don't have a lot of seafood options like other Chinese restaurants in chinatown. The roasted duck is a bit overcooked and the clams are bland. The service is super slow and they don't give out dessert like other restaurants. I wouldn't want to come back again. read more

Food I always go with at least 4 people so I can get a variety of food. The last time I went to eat with 9 people so we also tried a couple new dishes. Try the salted egg soft shell crab (deep fried) & Toisan stir fry. Always get string beans because the wok hey makes the difference from yum to wow. The tofu topped with shrimp is too much trouble to make at home so it's another go-to. An authentic Cantonese meal that ends with hot tapioca & taro sweet dessert soup. Servers are friendly and helpful and speak Cantonese, mostly. The location is a lower level so there's no natural light. This place has been around for at least 30 years with the same owners and some long-time servers. read more

I've heard so many good things on Tiktok of all places recently about this Chinatown staple and never having gone in all the years I worked in Chinatown, decided to give it a shot. Well this is definitely one of those cases where the hype doesn't match the experience. I got the shrimp with mayo and the salt and pepper squid, both from their list of specialties on the front page of their menu. These are two dishes I grew up eating and to say they were disappointing was an understatement. The shrimp, while large and plump, were totally lacking in flavor. I don't think they seasoned them at all before or after frying, simply tossing them in the sweet mayo sauce which did not have enough salt to make up for the dearth of it in the shrimp. The saving grace for this dish was the broccoli that came on the side, which was well-cooked and tossed in the standard Cantonese white sauce. The squid meanwhile were nicely seasoned and decently tender but weren't cleaned properly, so some pieces had an unpleasant taste to them that made me gag. The portion sizes are pretty decent though. I didn't end up finishing either dish but didn't want to take the leftovers to go either. Service was pretty standard for Chinatown. Your waiter will be around but don't expect them to always notice when you need something. The atmosphere is nice in a totally old-school Chinatown way. You're literally eating in a big basement room with giant tables full of old Chinese men. I'm glad to have tried this place once but won't be back. read more

Woahhhhhhh the food here is so good and comforting! It's nestled in the center of Chinatown, so parking can be a hassle when dining here. We came during lunch hours and it wasn't busy at all. Lots of seating and larger tables available for family dinners. Very family friendly. To me, the restaurant has a very welcoming and homey vibe. The staff are wonderful people and the owner is so friendly and kind. Service was fast as we were able to quickly order food and have it arrive soon after. Food came out hot and cooked perfectly!!! Vegetables were amazingly cooked from texture to flavor/seasoning. The noodles were phenomenally crunchy and delicious in the soy based sauce. The shrimp was cream, juicy, and flavorful. Overall, I left feeling full and super content with everything: good portion, taste, price, service, and vibes! Highly recommend this place if you love Cantonese food like me! read more

I will never say no to a no-frills, old-school Canto seafood place. My partner and I came for dinner on a Friday night around peak dinner hours. The place was packed but we were surprisingly seated after a short 10-15 minute wait. We ordered a seafood soup, pan fried noodles with seafood, and the signature sauteed oysters. Everything came out within minutes and was served piping hot. Major green flag. I think we could've been a little more experimental with what we ordered--the starchy, Cantonese-style seafood soup and crispy seafood noodles are all dishes we could easily find in Southern California, where we were visiting from. That being said, both dishes were substantial in portion, well-seasoned, and excellently prepared. The textures, flavors, etc. were all right. I think the standout dish of the night were the sauteed oysters, which came on a bed of onions and green onions. I think there were maybe 4-5 oysters in total, but they were quite large--maybe the size of an egg. Despite their size, they were super tender, briny, and creamy with a nice char from the wok. Between the two of us, we spent 80 dollars including tip, which was a little on the pricier side. Regardless, we had a good meal here and it was nice to have some Chinese comfort food after days of Italian and lobster rolls. read more

Scallop is good. Scallop is huge, with plenty of vermicelli. I think they raise the price as I thought I saw in previous review that it was $8 per scallop. Now, it is $9. Sizzling beef. This taste nasty. First of all, I didnt see any sizzling when it is deliver to my table. 2nd, the beef taste mushy, like it is liquefy when you put in your mouth. I was joking to my wife if it is even beef.... Beef chow fun and the vegetable dish. Not too impressive, definitely doesn't taste as good as the restaurant across the street. We order the same dish a day ago. Overall, I notice that there aren't many Chinese patron in this restaurant compare to the one across the street. Maybe the food here tailored to American palette? read more

With a variety of options found within Chinatown in Boston, Peach Farm stands out. So much, that we actually went back twice in one day during our week stay in Boston. Each dish is big enough to share so you will find that your dollar goes further in terms of quantity and quality. This restaurant specializes in Cantonese seafood dishes, but the non-seafood dishes are just as good. We really enjoyed both the chicken in peking sauce and the sizzling beef. If you find yourself in Boston's Chinatown with only one opportunity to try a restaurant the I would definitely recommend Peach Farm. read more

This hole in the wall restaurant located in the lower level may not seem like much based on appearance, but the food is authentic and good. Most, if not all of the servers/staff speak Cantonese. The fried squab was perfect and with a squeeze of lemon and a sprinkle of five spice powder mixed with salt is perfection! I'm not a fan of gamey meats, and I still eat this! The salt & pepper calamari is always my go-to because I love salty, spicy, fried goodness and this is hard to replicate at home because of the wok-hey My family loves a good eel dish and this eel was flavorful and cooked well. The presentation was good too, but the only thing is my family didn't care for the sweetness. They must have added oyster sauce or sugar to the sauce. My family typically doesn't make eel with anything "sweet". The fried tofu with shrimp on top is really good too. The tofu is fried to perfection and the inside is still silky smooth. The dipping sauce is also really good paired with it. We also had a gai lan (Chinese broccoli) cooked in ginger sauce and that was really good! read more

Waitress was very nice and helpful when we were trying to decide what to order. We felt welcome right when we walked in. The menu was extensive with authentic dishes. The food came out quick, hot, and delicious!! We got the sweet and sour pork - the pork was super tender and crispy. The house fried rice with Chinese sausage and scallops (yum!). The shrimp with mayo sauce - the shrimp were lightly fried and the mayo sauce was creamy. Even the broccoli on the plate was very flavorful! The portions are very generous. Three plates was the perfect amount of food for our group of four. I will definitely be back! read more

We stopped by here for lunch on the weekend and it wasn't very busy, but it seems like it gets busier for dinner. They were pretty quick with replacing the tea as we ran out. We got the pea pod stems with garlic, stir fried noodles, beef chow fun, salt and pepper tofu, and won ton soup. Food came out super fast and is pretty standard fare. I definitely need to order seafood next time, since that's what they're known for. If you get the won ton soup for the table, they will portion it out for you. One small bowl is enough to serve five people. Super reasonable prices, came out to about $22 per person for lunch. read more

SO OVERCOOKED..LIKE MUSH..FLAVORLESS.. Many mixed reviews...came in from NYC..I'm a serious cook. craving some authentic Chinese food from Chinatown..Thought I'd order out. Called Peach FArm to order.Told they were close by, Called them..Told I had to go on-line.. could not order on phone..Menu looked fine. Tried to put order in 7 times..App wasn't working..45 minutes later it caught..Took out a 10 year old major credit card that I just used -no problems.. Was Impossible to check-out..Have a very high credit score over 800..Again-again-app kept refusing my card. major glitch..Getting hungry..Forced to give them another card..Now one hour passed...Finally card accepted. Called the restaurant 3 times during this problem wanting to order on phone,,,Manager refused. It is now around 9pm-late for dinner.Staying close by..was told the food should arrive within 35+ minutes..One hour later around 10pm=food arrives..Around $82.00..not cheap for one main dish-one side. two appetizers & one wonton soup...plus delivery fee. BOTTOM LINE...TASTELESS..Food lukewarm..vegetables in shrimp dish way overcooked..all soggy./mush..Soup tasted like warm garlic water..couldn't eat it..smelled sour..Side of beef strips crusty & tough with wilted peapods..uneatable..peking dumplings--overcooked in dark brown thick dough-& hard edged...Some of the worst quality food I ever ordered. I did not want to eat it..Afraid of getting sick.. And food was expensive.. not fresh Food..En-even cooking..Was told they ask you before leaving to pay a bigger tip in cash..Terrible experience..Would never recommend..Planned to call manager Tom next day about this poor quality food in the MORNING..Called three different times & told he wasn't in yet and couldn't give me a time frame..Exhausted I gave up...even though I was told the evening before Tom would be in around 10AM.!!!!!!! read more

Huge fan of this place! I have been coming here since I was a child so it's been over 20 years. Here are some new updates if you live in the area: Their website has been updated recently. I used it to pick up food for mothers day and it make life so much easier. The money goes straight to the restaurant. Menu is in both English and Chinese so you got so much to pick from. Here is what I ordered this time around and my thoughts: Salt and Pepper Soft Shell Crabs - It's really good. It's fried with the same seasoning you get from the Spicy Dry Fried Salted Squid. Slightly on the spicy side crunchy from the deep fried so it's perfect for me. Currently a seasonal special which made me tried it. Lobster with Ginger and Scallions - For an additional cost, they will add an additional lobster. Perfect way to have a Cantonese preparation for lobster. It's one of their specials here at this restaurant so it's a must get. It's stir fried with ginger and scallions, lobster cut to bit size pieces, and just coated with this delicious sauce. Crispy Fried Chicken - Exactly what it sound like. It's not deep fried so don't expect a heavy batter. It's one of the safest things you can order because who doesn't like fried chicken. I got a half size (half a chicken) but you can get a full bird too. Stir Fried Watercress - It's one of my favorite Veggies here and usually debate between this this or Stir Fried Pea Pods. Got to get some veggies, right? Salted Fish & Chicken Fried Rice - Very umami from the salted fish. Not your usual fried rice but I find this way tastier. Beef, Peppers, Onions, Black Bean Sauce with Foon - Very delicious and safe dish. The Foon noodles is thickier so it takes on the seasoning well. It's beefy and slighly oiler so eat it fast before it gets cold. Other recommendation that I usually get but not this time: Spicy Dry Fried Salted Squid (Spicy) or Spicy Salted Shrimp, Pork Chop & Squid (Spicy) is one of the must get dishes here. It's so good. It's deep fried and coated with salt & peppers (imagine chilis). Shrimp and Mayo is a crowded favorite!!! Usually have pineapples with it so it's slightly sweet and tropical. Frog with Garlic in Hot Pot is one of my personal favorite but this is for the braver soul. It's heavy on garlic so I highly recommend this for garlic lovers. Lastly, It's not the cleanest looking restaurant if you decide to sit down to eat but chinatown isn't exactly the fanciest place. Come here for the delicious and authentic food. read more

Some food highs and a few lows. Came to Peach Farm for a group dinner and tried lots of dishes. The highlights were: - the beef with pickled mustard greens. Tender meat, great flavor overall. - clams/scallops with glass noodles. Served super hot and fresh, great flavor. Good amount of mollusk meat. The garlic eggplant was disappointing. Overly mushy and lacking in flavor. The szechuan shrimp with peanuts was also a dud. Basically a kung pao, but with only a handful of tiny shrimp. Salt and pepper squid and steamed oysters with black beans were both OK. Service was friendly, attentive, and food came out amazingly quick from the kitchen. A pretty decent option for some Chinese seafood with local ingredients. read more

Overall: 3/5 Food: 3.8/5 Authentic Chinese dishes, decent tasting. The clams were a bit sandy. The pork was very authentic tasting. Decently large portions. Service: 2/5 Chinatown restaurants are not known for their service but this was something else. When bringing us our clam dish, the waitstaff spilled all of the juices on to the table including into our tea. Also, we tipped 15% based on the subtotal, the waitress would not let us leave until we tipped her more. Like yes Boston is expensive but this leaves a sour taste to the experience. Value: 3.5/5 read more

I'm an Asian guy. I've been to a shit ton of these kind of family style seafood places. They're legit here. If you're no frills and don't mind the no bullshit order your food and fuck off kind of service, this place is beautiful. Every dish was absolutely spectacular and pleased my entire family visiting. We got the soft shell crab, dungennes crab, lobster, fried calamari, shrimp, and scallops. Every dish was fresh and of great quality - I personally love squid and really enjoyed the hell out of the fried calamari, one of the best I've ever had but even better, the kind I could eat forever - lightly salted, meaty and wonderfully fried. The scallops with vermicelli was amazing as well. The crab and lobster, incredibly meaty and fresh. This place is just really good and is probably the best "Asian family gather at this seafood spot" I've been to, even with tough competition in California. P.s. the calamari was so good I forgot to take a photo of it read more

Lunchtime on Mother's Day in Boston Chinatown...you know it's going to get busy. We showed up for our 11:30AM reservation and were greeted by one of the nicest guys (older gentleman...turned out to be the owner). We only ordered a few things for our party of 5...twin lobsters prepared with ginger and scallions and steamed whole scallops served on its shell with vermicelli noodles and sprinkled with garlic and green onions. Lastly, we ordered water cress stir fried with garlic. Super fresh and stir fried to perfection (crispy yet tender). Peach Farm is not fancy, but the staff is friendly and courteous and the prices are reasonable for seafood prepared in the Cantonese style and tradition! read more

It was my first time trying Chinese cuisine, so I asked the server for some help understanding the menu. Unfortunately, she was very unhelpful. When I asked about the ingredients of a dish, she began placing the order without confirming, and when I said I wasn't going to order that, she rudely grabbed the menu from my hands to point out other options. Her attitude made me feel very uncomfortable, so I chose to ask another waitress instead--thankfully, she was much more helpful. However, as we were checking out and about to leave, the first server approached us and said, 'Give me tip.' We were shocked. Tipping should never be demanded--especially after such rude and unprofessional behavior. read more
