    We went to Tin Tin Buffet - exactly as expected. No surprises. I ate a full plate of green beans and a full plate of plantains. Yum yum in my tum. Service was friendly and the atmosphere was as expected!!

    TLDR: the Chinese buffet of your dreams. Everyone has had the classic Chinese buffet experience of American Chinese classics plus slightly weird western/Italian food with classic buffet decor. Yeah this is it. Tin tin is its own slice of history and I'm sure in the next ten years this spot will be torn down for a new apartment complex but until then enjoy this relic of the past.

    a variety of food items

    This felt kind of in the middle of nowhere so location isn't great, but we went for lunch on a Saturday and it wasn't bad. The price was $16.95/person which isn't as cheap as it used to be, but it wasn't terrible. If it was $2 cheaper, I might have actually given it 4 stars. There were 4 islands set up, so there was a fair variety of food. We were happy to see that they had seafood for lunch and that there were a good amount of customers, which ended up meaning that the food got turned over at least once per dish while we were there. While it didn't look great at first, the quality of some of the items actually was pretty good. Dumplings - These are great - the skin is nice and thin and the meat is large and chunky. The skin is almost a bit chewy and crispy and has a really good texture. Crab Rangoons - I didn't actually eat one of these, but we get takeout from here a lot and these are pretty good. Nice and crispy with a good ratio of filling. Cajun Seafood - This was surprisingly very good. I had shrimp, crawfish, and mussels from here. Halfway through our meal, they refilled this dish and the shrimp and mussels that they added were huge. It didn't taste off at all which is a fear at buffets, and it was actually quite nice. Shrimp (cold, boiled) - This also got refilled halfway through our meal. The meat was firm and flavored nicely with lemon. I love cold shrimp so this was a nice addition to the buffet. Shrimp (stir fried) - These were peeled and in a clear sauce. They weren't the most amazing, but it was nice to have another type of shrimp to choose from. Black Bean Clams - These were amazing. They were also refilled halfway through our meal and I ate a LOT of them. They had a nice blend of black bean and spice, and the clams themselves were nice and sweet. Sesame Balls - These might not be homemade, but they tasted just as good as a dim sum place, and they weren't huge so they didn't fill us up too much. Salt and Pepper Shrimp - These were fried nicely so they weren't too greasy but they were fried enough that you could eat the shell with the meat since it was nice and crispy. Good flavor. All in all, if we had a car, we'd definitely be back, and if it were a tad bit cheaper, I'd give it 4 stars. Still, it was a solid buffet for an area that doesn't have a lot of cheap Chinese buffet options. We actually walked about 40 minutes each way to get here and we have no regrets.

    AYCE Thai food? Say less!…read more Thai food is probably on my top 5 favorite cuisines. Saw so many food content on both Instagram and TikTok, it's a must try! Immediate reaction when we arrived, this restaurant reminded us so much of Anchan in Braintree. A great Thai restaurant if you're in the south shore. Very nice and cozy interior. Lots of greenery decorations. A clean atmosphere for a AYCE spot. I believe this used to be or still is, a dine in spot minus the hot bar. We got here right at opening for dinner (4:30pm). The smell from the hot bar was amazing. The staff were so nice and welcoming. They still had a few more dishes to bring out so we decided to wait and not get in their way. Once ready, we were all excited. They had many dishes you normally would order off the menu. Pad see ew, papaya salad, glass noodle salad, coconut soup, Tom yum soup, chicken pad krapow, a few seafood dishes, and yellow curry . I believed maybe roughly 12 dishes total. My favorite was their pad see ew and chicken satay skewers and fried pork. It was so flavorful. Along with the glass noodles. I could eat that everyday. Was a little disappointed because there wasn't sticky rice but I get it, it's not cheap and the labor to make it. They had all the sauces out. Everything was so nicely prepared for all the guests. I would definitely come back. Thank you for the wonderful food and the amazing service. Tip : post and tag them on IG to get 10% off!

A hidden gem from my perspective. It's nothing fancy, sometimes a little hard to communicate with the cashier but they are great people and have great food. The Food~ The spicy sausage is juicy and rich with a bit of a kick. The garlic and regular Picanha meat are also soft and tender. The crusty skin with the garlic and salt bits mends well with the meat. Paired together with the jasmine butter rice neutralizes the saltiness and pulls you back for more. The oxtail and soup is also very good. The warm soup with the tender oxtail paired again with the rice is the perfect combo. There wasn't a lot of vegetable options but I'm not complaining :) The Logistics~ There is plenty of parking on the street and also a public parking lot near Blanchard. A party of 4 is considered large for this place and you'll end up taking all the seats. Don't like sticking around too long and the seating area is pretty limited and not the best for private conversations.

It is a casual all you can eat sushi/seafood place where you order your food on an ipad. It's easy and quick, I love going for dinner and drinks on date night with my fiancé or with a group of friends! It's very affordable, I think around $35 per person for. I do have to say the service is pretty good, food comes out quick but there has been a few times where our order was lost because of technology not cooperating or a mix up with our dishes with the next table. Sometimes you need to flag a staff member down if you think the order was forgotten/messed up because you do have 1hr 30 time limit for making orders. Other than this hiccup, I am satisfied with everything. Here are some tips on how to make the most of it! - get lots of sashimi; that way you aren't filling up on sushi rice and have less room for the good stuff! - the agedashi tofu is really yummy, so is the seafood salad! Miso soup as a starter is a must! - fried ice cream to finish out the night with a sweet treat! Since our first visit, we have become patrons of Yamato and enjoy dinner there every now and then. Great affordable place to eat!

It was buzzing, lively, and definitely loud--but the service was fantastic. Here's how it works: the base price includes your broth and access to a HUGE buffet featuring seasonal vegetables, rice cakes, noodles, fish cakes, and so much more. You can add à la carte meats and seafood, plus drinks. There was honestly such an incredible variety on the buffet that we didn't even feel the need to order extra meat or seafood. Everything was plentiful and surprisingly well-stocked throughout our meal. Check out my photos and videos to see just how much there was to choose from! Hands down, the best shabu-shabu/hot pot I've ever had.

    I love this place! Such a staple in Boston for AYCE hotpot…read more The service is quick and very friendly. Our server, Jose, helped reset the hotpot heaters at my table because two of them were not working initially. He also checked in on my table multiple times for more meat orders and water refills despite a full and busy dining room. They have a variety of greens, mushrooms, noodles, fishcakes, and other vegetables for hot pot. They also have rice, kimchi, eggs, and a sauce bar with a plethora of options. You are also able to order meat, fish, and shrimp for an extra charge with the server. All their ingredients are super fresh and pair super well with all of their broth options. I got the mala broth, which is pretty spicy and super flavorful. The best part is that there is matcha and vanilla soft serve for a sweet treat to end the night. Overall, I think the price is reasonable for what you are getting and the fact that there is nearly always a line speaks to how good it is. I will definitely be back when I am in Boston!

We enjoyed sitting outside on the patio where the steady cool breeze refreshed us. The small appetizer plate with falafel and hummus was my favorite part of the meal. The falafel were flat and oblong, crispy and flavorful. I appreciated the texture of the hummus and babaghanoush (hearty and chunky, rather than smooth). The lamb adana and chicken Adana were delicious as well, complemented with pickled purple cabbage, red and white rice, and roasted green chili pepper (caution--spicy even if you remove the seeds!). Generous portions! We shared three entrees among 4 of us, along with two small appetizers and had two take home containers!

    Love love love this place…read more First night in Brookline and walking to Whole Foods for supplies, we saw two big families leaving here looking happy and sated and rubbing their tummies; so after our shopping we came for dinner right at dusk, and immediately sat outside. Our server Bahar was so kind and helpful: I have a dairy allergy and really wanted to try the Ali Nazik, but the lamb marinade has dairy, we we got the Sultan's Delight (same smoky eggplant puree with baked lamb). We also ordered Chicken Adana, and the small appetizer with falafel and hummous; all to share for 3 of us. Our fourth got the Iskender Kabob for himself. Bahar first brought a bean salad (so fresh and light) and bread (yum). Then the appetizer: the falafel was flat (not spherical) which meant the surface area of crunchiness increased--so delicious; and the hummous was much grainier than I've had, which gave it such a lovely texture. Bahar came out with the Sultan's Delight, and rushed back apologetic that the chef used dairy today, so we ordered a second appetizer with babaganoush and falafel (we really needed more falafel once we got a taste)--the babaganoush was, like the hummous, grainier in texture than we were used to and so pleasing to eat. If it weren't for my dairy allergy, we might never had ordered the chicken adana kebab, which was so flavorful and lovely: the orange rice was so nutty and made my mouth happy. We realized that we wanted to try the Lamb Adana Kebab, which had such a phenomenal flavor palate with a nice spicy kick. The peppers that came with the entrees were like sneaky super hot shishito peppers in flavor. Bahar took such lovely care of us, we had an amazing meal.

    I always laugh a little when I read reviews saying, "This isn't the best dim sum in Greater…read moreBoston." You're right. It's also not in Chinatown, where parking is an Olympic sport. And it's not in Quincy or Malden either. Sometimes convenience matters. That's exactly why Joyful Garden has become my family's go-to. If you're coming for dim sum, weekends are absolutely the time to go. You'll get the biggest selection, everything comes out piping hot, and the carts are flying around the restaurant. The tradeoff? It is BUSY. Don't show up starving. Show up with friends, accept that you'll probably have a wait, grab the electronic buzzer, and spend some time chatting while wandering around the strip mall. (Yes, you'll probably end up standing near the vape shop. It's all part of the experience.) The ambiance is classic Cantonese restaurant: big round tables, banquet energy, families everywhere, and enough space for everything from dim sum to celebrations. I've been here for birthdays, baby one-month celebrations, weddings, banquets, and casual meals with a friend. There's also a bar area where you might find people watching Jeopardy or whatever else happens to be on, which honestly adds to the charm. The two biggest reasons we keep coming back are surprisingly unglamorous: 1. Parking. 2. Prices. The parking is fantastic. Front lot, back lot...it's in a strip mall, so you don't have to circle for twenty minutes hoping someone leaves. The prices deserve their own paragraph. ::IT'S STORYTIME:: My parents are from Guangdong and Hong Kong, and they are, without question, the most price-conscious people I know. They track grocery prices like they're following the stock market. They debate whether shrimp is worth ordering because it's gotten too expensive. AND despite living near Flushing, New York, every single time they come to visit me, they insist on going to Joyful Garden at least once because they cannot get over how reasonable the prices are. When there were rumors that businesses in Arsenal Yards might have to relocate, they were genuinely worried about Joyful Garden. That, more than anything, tells you what they think of the place. The Cantonese entrees are solid too. My family's favorites include the clay pot dishes, while I keep coming back for Buddha's Delight, Poached House Chicken, and the braised E-fu noodles with mushrooms. One last thing: I sometimes see reviews saying the dim sum isn't as good as Toronto or Vancouver. Well...yes. Neither is most dim sum in the United States. I think it's more useful to judge Joyful Garden for what it is: an affordable, dependable neighborhood Cantonese restaurant with good dim sum, plentiful parking, and prices that somehow still make my Cantonese parents happy. And trust me, that last part is a remarkably high bar.

    It's a short walk from the heart of Allston-- originally we wanted to go for the AYCE Happy Lamb…read moreevent but the waitlist was awful so we decided to check this place out. Pricing has 2 AYCE options, one vegetarian and one Premium (meat and seafood) for about 7$ more per person. The self service sauce bar is pretty small and we did have to ask for a sauce refill because they were running low. The soda fountain is also AYCE and there are plastic cups and straws provided. Near the cashier there are self service utensils and thin plastic aprons. You're able to place an order to kitchen every 5 minutes and you have about 90 minutes to order. Something I thought was interesting is that they combine items from the same sections: ex, sausage and beef tripe were under fishballs so they came in the same bowl. The meat options were pretty limited but the marbling did look pretty. The fried appetizers were a bit lack luster and the same for the dim sum. Overall a pleasant experience albeit pricy for the options provided. It is a pretty small restaurant so do check out the waitlist beforehand!

Yunnan Style Fresh Pork Rice Noodles Cooked with Chinese Pickled Sour Cabbage and Chili Oil 老字号小锅米线 : As a Cantonese, I opted for the mild spiciness, and it was indeed very light--flavorful yet safe to eat. It was served piping hot, which was a good start; the broth, made with tomatoes and authentic Yunnan pickles, had just the right amount of refreshing sourness and fruity aroma amidst the exquisite freshness, creating a complex yet harmonious flavor profile; the minced pork was incredibly tender, not at all gamey, ​​and even had a hint of milky flavor; the chives were only fragrant, without any unpleasant odor; the rice noodles were on the firmer side, providing both texture and absorbing the broth perfectly. The portion size was enormous, enough for two meals; even though I was already quite full, it was so delicious that I didn't want to leave a single drop of soup. This restaurant even imported litsea cubeba from Yunnan, although the flavor wasn't particularly strong, it still showed their sincerity! Stinky Yunnan Style Fresh Pork Rice Noodles with Chinese Pickled Sour Cabbage and Chili Oil 臭豆腐差点意思的臭豆腐小锅米线 : My friend ordered the normal spicy version, and I tried a little, but it wasn't very spicy. This one had a noticeably richer and more unique flavor, with a layer of chili oil on top. The first taste was the pungent aroma of the stinky fermented tofu, followed by the savory aroma of fermented black beans and minced pork. The flavor was also stronger, instantly stimulating all my senses. My friend said Yunnan stinky tofu is white, but this one used black Changsha stinky tofu, perhaps due to different preparation methods or limited resources. The Comeback of Yunnan's Unbeatable Cold Rolled Noodles 云南无敌好吃凉拌卷粉之卷土重来: My first time trying Yunnan rice noodle rolls, and I was blown away from the first bite... How could something be so delicious?! The rich aroma of peanut butter laid the foundation, with a perfect balance of salty and sweet; the chewy texture of the rice noodle rolls, the crunchy peanuts, and the crisp carrot shreds created a rich texture. However, it was a little too spicy for me, and by the end, I was just slurping and didn't want to stop... Also, rice noodle rolls are actually what Cantonese call "pig intestine rice noodles 猪肠粉," so seeing them with peanut sauce felt very familiar. Spicy Lemon Chicken Feet 云南胡辣子柠檬鸡爪: My friend loved it! The aroma of the roasted chili peppers was outstanding, and the refreshing lemon was a delightful surprise. It just got spicier towards the end, though, and I couldn't handle it... Flower Pastry 鲜花饼: It seemed like a very ordinary packaged flower pastry, but it was great to be able to get it in Boston!

    Yes yes yes we need more of these no frills just good food spots in Boston! You can just tell how…read morepopular they are by the shear amount of take out orders they get (we were eating in and their machine was non-stop dinging with new orders). The noodles are REALLY spicy though and I wish there was an option to go even less spicy (maybe there is and I just missed it). But it's so flavorful and I personally love the texture of the rice noodles. Highly recommend trying this out!
