But, when I first entered, I was concerned that there was no one else dining on a Sunday at 1pm. All of the food came out extra hot, which I love. Soup dumplings have plenty of liquid, no sombrero-like dumplings here! Ma Po Tofu could've been spicier & make sure you get it with pork IMO but it was still a yummy dish. My family loves rice cake noodle but I don't because the noodle is often gummy-chewy but this one was just right and they don't use snow cabbage like most places. The eggplant had lots of wood mushrooms so that's a huge plus since we love that veg. Definitely needed the 2 bowls of white rice for the sauce from the eggplant & tofu dishes. The staff are nice. The woman server spoke Mandarin and the kitchen staff also speak Cantonese.

I could not stomach any of their food. 4 crab Rangoon with little to no filling, 2 extremely fatty poor quality chicken teriyaki sticks and 1 egg roll for $17 on a bed of rice that tasted so old. I remember their Mala spicy pot being decent (however not as good as the spots I visit in Cambridge and Allston-Brighton) but gets the job done, there were many shrimp heads but where's the rest of the shrimp? Super expensive for small portions, old beef slices and old shrimp, had a bad smell so I tossed $50 worth of food. I woke up extremely sick this morning from the food, never again.

They brought over tea in a teapot and cups. We ordered a large hot and sour soup to share between 4 of us and it was plenty. Also ordered the duck appetizer which was really good tender and flavorful. Kung pao chicken is the hubs' favorite and was pretty good. Ma po tofu was good quite spicy very soft tofu. Also got the vegetable dish the mixed vegetable dish which had the Chinese squash, carrots and mushrooms. Everything was delicious and I couldn't stop eating! They brought oranges with the bill which is nice - I like healthy desserts ha ha! The ambience decor is nice with beautiful painted designs on the walls. They also have 2 private rooms with seating for private parties. Service was a bit slow in the beginning but once they got the order the dishes came out fairly quickly. We had lots of leftovers and they packed it all nicely and even gave us 2 extra bags since we wanted to split the leftovers between us. We lucked out with parking and found free street parking very close to the restaurant. Overall good experience!

Just like the reviews said there is as paid parking lot right next to it and you may find free street parking around. Quiet with plenty of seating and very authentic Chinese food, not the Americanized Chinese food. They also served us water right away and kept coming around to make sure our glasses were always topped up. The friend who wanted Chinese asked the waiter for a shrimp recommendation and talked with the waiter about what he would like and when the food came it was exactly what he wanted. Everyone lived their dishes and the prices were very reasonable. We even agreed that next time we do the escape room in the area, we are going back to eat there again.

I really like the people who work here but the food the last few times has been a little bland, lacking salts; ie soy sauce, salt, anchovies, tamari, etc. they should really look into putting more flavor in this.
