    Little gem hidden in the old Lollicup boba tea stall. The lady who i believe is the owner also was very very nice and accomodating! We started with just the xlb crab meat + pork with the fried chive vermicelli and woods ear pocket. I need up ordering another XLB and pan fried dumplings! I must say the wrap used for the dumplings especially the XLB soup dumplings was great. Everything was made by hand in back by the owner, filled and wrapped. Steamed quick and brought to us. Scan the QR code and pay! Not a single XLB broke on us and the soup filling was tasty! Def a hidden gem will be back for our next fix!

    This place is DA BOMB. The aunties who run this place are so nice. They are Shanghainese, and we could tell they put so much care into their food. Soup Dumplings: All handmade. Wrappers are excellent. Super duper soupy, and they come out piping hot. The crab roe dumplings are nice, too, but not as good as the ones in Shanghai (obviously). Out of the 12 we ordered, only two ripped, so not bad! Small Wontons: Very, very authentic. We just got back from a trip to Shanghai, and I can confirm these are legit. You should definitely try them, as it's pretty hard to find small wontons in the US. Radish Cakes: These were also delicious. So juicy on the inside! Scallion Pancakes: These were pretty standard. Of course, the standard scallion pancake is also delicious. Not too greasy, and very crisp. I wouldn't say these are a must-have, though, since you can probably find good ones elsewhere too. They also sell soup dumplings frozen to-go. We will definitely be back! This place is awesome!

    I was in Boston and looking for some soup dumplings. This was pretty close to our hotel but I didn't realize it was inside a supermarket/warehouse. It was really interesting, that place sells everything. This soup dumpling stand was near the cash registers and is a tiny little place with a few tables. I ordered the xlb to-go and ate it outside. It was hot and fresh and paired nicely with the dipping sauce. Overall, this place had tasty dumplings but there's not much of an ambiance so take it to-go.

    Hidden gem in Kam Man- hand made soup dumplings, dumplings, etc. I bought some pork and cabbage frozen dumplings. Pan fried for 8-9 min (added some water and covered). Then I ate it with some hoisin and sriracha sauce on the side. It tastes delicious and fresh. I have also tried the frozen soup dumplings at home. Steamed for 11 min and they tastes as good as the ones at restaurants in Cambridge/ chinatown.

    You'll need to order your food on the counter. The lady will bring your food. Minimum charge for credit card is $20. Service was prompt and the lady kindly reminded me that the soup dumplings are steaming hot. Food was great, will definitely return here.

    Stopped by one day before shopping at Kan Man. I usually opt for getting Ba le but wanted to try something new and I am so glad I did! We had the wonton soup, pork & shrimp dumplings, and the Crab-meat soup dumplings. Everything was super fresh and delicious - ESPECIALLY the crab-meat soup dumplings. Definitely more of a takeout spot since there are not very many tables but I am glad that we ate there so that everything was piping hot and also because the crab-meat soup dumplings are dine-in only.

    Had some time to kill and was hungry so I decided to grab a quick bite here. This place is located inside Kam Man market. It's one of the sections across from all the cash registers. It's small but has 4 dine in tables. I ordered crab soup dumplings and steamed pork & mushrooms buns then sat down and wait. The steamed pork buns came out first. It was piping hot. To my surprise, the bun part was fluffy/spongy (almost chewy texture which I really like). The filling was a tad salty for my liking but still good. The crab soup dumplings arrived right after I finished my first pork bun. The soup dumplings had a good amount of soup inside and flavorful. The dumpling skin was on the thicker side with the same chewy texture. The dipping sauce was light in color with ginger pieces. It was on the sweeter side. I'm used to the dark vinegar soy sauce at most Shanghai style places. The total was around $21. I left feeling very full. I will try their wonton soup next time I'm in the area again.

    Cyndy's Bottom Line: The most delicious soup dumplings in an unassuming place. *Located in the Kam Man Food marketplace Upon entering walk straight ahead, located on the right across of the check out cashiers. *There are four tables available for dining in. *Open daily: 0900-7pm, Closed on Tuesday *Cash or Venmo *Take out and delivery This is what we ate: -Signature Soup Dumplings (6pcs) Authentic pork soup dumpling made from a delicately thin dumpling skin, juicy meat, and a seasoned broth. *The dumplings are so delicious. A good amount of tasty pork filling with a delicate wrapper. A must order. -Crab-meat Soup Dumplings (6pcs) Real crab-meat & pork soup dumpling made from a delicately thin dumpling skin and a seasoned broth. *Delicous crab meat and the amount of filling to wrapper ratio is good. Tasty dipping sauce. -Pork & Shrimp with Chive (8pcs) (Steamed or Pan-Ftied) *You can order the dumplings steamed or fried. We ordered the dumplings steamed. Very tasty filling especially with the chives. -Scallion Pancakes (4pcs) Crispy, flaky exterior that gives way to a slightly chewy interior of thin layers. *This is a must order because it is absolutely divine! Loved the crispiness! So light and airy cripiness, delicate crunch and tasty scallion flavor. The dipping sauce elevates the flavor profiles. *Highly recommend *Friendly and attentive service *Continued success to Jessica and the lady chefs!

    Flavors - 4.1/5 Textures - 4/5 Presentation - 4.3/5 Value for Money - 3.8/5 Would return? Yes Must-try: Pork, Shrimp & Leek Dumplings I think this are the best dumplings I've ever tried! The pork, shrimp and leek pan fried dumplings were cooked to perfection, thinly wrapped, generously filled and well seasoned. I loved that the shrimp was chopped and I could feel the chunks in there. Incredibly delicious flavor is you like leeks. These were hard to critique. Their signature soup dumplings were good as well but average in comparison. The wrapper was too thick, but had the right bite and chew (most people overcook their dumplings, not here!). Yummy flavors as well.

    Wow! What a gem of a find inside the grocery store. The handmade dumplings were made with love and care. The soup inside the soup dumpling was packed with flavor and the meat was soft and tender as was the steamed dumpling.

    New dish alert! The Radish Pancakes are AMAZING!! it looks dry outside but juicy inside!! You have to eat it fresh...so pay the 20% tips and eat it there!! Sorry...we ate too quick and forgot to take photo

    Crabmeat dumplings and pork with mushroom bun.  Yum!

    Great juicy authentic soup dumplings freshly steamed all in a mom and pop shop in Kam man market. Friendly service. It's about time Quincy has a place for soup dumplings so I don't have to trek Chinatown. I can now get my groceries and stop by this cute place . Will be a frequent customer Tip- Get the white peach sparkling water! First time I'm having it and it's amazing! Goes well with the dumpling.

    A hidden gem! Dumplings are juicy and flavorful. Recommend the signature and crab meat soup dumplings. We also tried the pan fried dumplings which was also delicious.

He also Starred in several hit dramas and films. His anticipation grew to a frenzy knowing he was going to perform, that China Pearl was completely SOLD OUT in Days. There were tables of 10 and approximately 200 plus guests started to enter around 5:30 today! This beautiful designed restaurant truly was the perfect venue to host and serve every person who paid $88 per person! The DJ played music while Platters and platters of amazing dishes were placed on each tables lazy Susan! I cannot tell you what the dishes were but my photos will show you what was served! Seems like the never ending stream of one platter after another impressed all of us with their plating and taste! While all of us were dining on exquisite dishes, music were playing, then the moment of truth arrived for our anticipated guests. Gabriel 海俊傑 came out singing from the back of the room to screams and clapping while he made his way to the Stage! It was designed to the nines! He sang song after song and truly made his fans go wild with joy! It seemed like every camera phone was filming and focused at the stage! The room was in a total frenzy and the girls and women would grab him for photos and videos! I have never seen how much he was loved and adored by the audience reactions! China Pearl staff was so professional and made all of us have such a memorable night..... Gabriel 海俊傑 kept singing and moving around the whole room satisfying all who wanted to take his picture! Even at my table of 10, the 6 women at my table could not contain themselves by clapping and raising their cameras to capture him on stage then they managed to walk closer to the Stage and many managed to join him on stage while he serenade each one and their smiles were from ear to ear plus you could see how red and excited by blushing like teenage school girls! I loved it, especially capturing it on video. To experience this phenomenon was like watching a Rock Star in Concert! Yet, the whole room erupted with hands clapping and screams and Gabriel 海俊傑 kept singing to his fans! It was amazing that China Pearl pulled off a performance and dinner for all these guests flawlessly! I definitely will have to come back just to enjoy their amazing cuisine! Thank you for this ONE NIGHT ONLY EVENT STARRING 海俊傑 GABRIEL HARRISON!

Ever since Double Chin Restaurant in Chinatown closed (may she rise again), I've been on a mission to find a worthy fried chicken bolo bao. My friend and I trudged into Rubato on a cold, rainy day, hoping for a replacement. Spoiler alert: we did not find one. We ordered four items: rice rolls with curry fish balls, an egg custard lava bun, Ovaltine French toast, and the fried chicken bolo bao. The rice rolls were mild but fine, topped with enough cilantro and scallion to keep it interesting. The lava bun was hot, gooey, and did its job. (GOOD JOB, LAVA BUN!) The Ovaltine French toast? Eh, it aite. But here's the heartbreak: the chicken bolo bao. The chicken wasn't hot; it had that "sat around" feeling. And the bun? Just a dressed-up brioche, missing that true bo lo bao magic. A brioche bun with a crackly top is not a bo lo bao, my dudes. In short, everything was edible, but nothing made me want to come back. (It's not like watching like a hawk for an empty seat and swooping in the moment one opens up is any fun.) The chicken deserved better.

We ordered a rice roll as usual--the female owner accidentally handed the dish to another table, and it sat there for about five minutes or so, while the couple was talking over the dish. Then the female owner apparently realized the dish was handed to the wrong table, she took it back into the kitchen (as a deception, thinking we wouldn't realize it's the same dish, we saw her through the curtain, she was holding the same dish the whole time--she didn't know we were watching and rightfully suspicious of what she was sneakily doing), then brought it out right back to our table. We did not want to say anything. But it was disgusting, people do spit onto the dish when they talk over it during those five minutes, you know? We were too shy to cause a scene or destroy the long standing relationship. Further, we couldn't afford to let that $12 or so dish go to waste. So we tried eating it. Afterward, we felt so disgusted. And that was the last time we went to Big Fun Cafe. Two years or so ago. Even after learning of its new location in Brookline, we are just so disgusted by the memory of the incident described above -- so we never tried their Brookline location. Note to the owners: for future customers, such mistakes do happen, but please have some integrity and just discard/trash the contaminated dish -- or if you want to be so cheap, eat the contaminated dishes yourself. Don't be so stingy and deceptive so as to hand it to your presumed naive customers. That was extremely disgusting and even two years later, we're still disgusted by it.

So after looking up local Chinese joints to eat at, Dynasty popped up. They also offer street parking so that is what sold me on this joint. Considering Boston's Chinatown looks pretty run down, you should never judge a book by it's cover. Walking in, this joint is really bright and clean. The young man working the register greeted us and got my daughter and I a table. The big list of food items was dropped off and we were ready to get the party started! We ordered a handful of things! It's been a while since we have had dim sum so we were ready to put in work. Our food was starting to slowly trickle out. We started off with the congee. It came out pretty fast since it was probably made earlier waiting to be served. Shortly after the rest of our dumplings were making their way to our table. The congee was simple, savory and comforting. It tasted like my childhood. The fried shrimp rolls were tasty, crispy and savory. I have had similar fried shrimp dumplings like this served with a sauce similar to walnut shrimp. That sauce would have been killer with these rolls. The long rice noodles were silky and filled with char sui. The sauce was more vinegar than sweet which is how I have normally had it. Still good! Har gaw and shu mai were fabulous once they dropped off soy and chili oil to dip them in. The turnip cake will always be one of my favorites. My daughter enjoyed the soup dumplings and the rice in lotus leaf. I was too full to try them. Customer service was ok. They got you what you needed but not a lot of exchange in conversation. I feel like most dim sum experiences are like that. The food was so good! I enjoyed every bit of it with my daughter. Parking might be free but very limited and challenging to find.
