It gets crowded on the weekend so plan ahead because the space isn't that big! The food is so homey and satisfying. Their rice roll texture is great and the flavors are on point. Highly recommend the fried dough stick (油條）which typically pairs with soy milk but I was a bit disappointed with their soy milk (it was quite watery). Prices are fair and everything was yummy! Will be coming back! read more

The food here is very delicious! Service is great and they're super busy, even on a Thursday afternoon. The congee is so silky and smooth. It was delicious! The steam roll was fabulous that we ordered an extra one to go. Scallion pancake was nice and crispy. The barley lemongrass lemonade was interesting. I wasn't expecting actual barley to be in there but it was. I only drank the liquid as I'm not a fan of mushy textures. Not sure what I was expecting but had I known it would be chunks of barley I probably would've opted for another beverage. The tongue bread is a shape of a tongue, hence the name. It was a dense bread with minimal flavor. Casual ambiance with modern decor. Seating available for dining in and great food. I would definitely recommend this establishment and return when I'm in the area. Street parking only. read more

The service is fantastic. I arrived around 3pm on a Friday and it was very quiet. I received great service throughout my visit, with regular water refills and my food arrived soon after I ordered it. I ate the rice noodle with shrimp and pork. It's good. I wish they offered it with cilantro to make the flavor "pop." It's a great portion for under $8. I also tried their special braised beef soup. I needed to add chili oil to bring out more flavor, but a solid comfort dish nevertheless. I also wish it came with some greens like bok choi, Chinese broccoli, or scallions. As others have mentioned, there is limited seating but it is clean and bright. For me, the service stood out as one of the best I've had in an old school Boston area Chinese spot with reasonable prices. I'd definitely eat here again. read more

Solid option when you are craving Cantonese comfort food. The bbq rice roll was full of pork and has that perfect noodle texture. The homestyle noodles (comes with ham even though it is not in the description) and chicken congee were pretty standard but still tasty. The yuzu drink was great though - a less sweet lemonade with a little of that yuzu bitterness. Portions are smaller - good for 2-3 people if sharing but the prices reflect that so you can order multiple. It's smaller inside though so not great for larger groups. read more

Beautifully cooked, tasty congee & rice noodle rolls. I'm gonna stop by more often. My Taiwanese in laws loved it.

This is a great rice noodle shop in Quincy. The food is really fresh and well seasoned. The fried dough stick is also one of the better ones I've had in a while because it was crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The restaurant itself is very clean. It is on the smaller side, but at the time I went, there was no wait. The service was also fast - we were able to get our food within 10 min of ordering and we will definitely come back! read more

I recently visited Yin Ji Chang Fen and left genuinely impressed, especially as someone who loves comforting Cantonese breakfast staples done right. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere felt casual and authentic -- nothing overly polished, but clean, efficient, and clearly focused on the food. The staff moved quickly, and even during a busy stretch, service felt attentive without being intrusive. The standout for me was the rice noodle rolls (cheung fun). The texture was exactly what I hope for: silky, delicate, and freshly steamed with that slightly elastic bite that tells you they're made properly. The filling was generous without overpowering the noodle itself, and the soy-based sauce added just enough savoriness without drowning the dish. I appreciated how balanced everything tasted -- light, comforting, and incredibly satisfying. The minced beef congee was another highlight. It arrived piping hot with a velvety, almost creamy consistency that only comes from patient cooking. The beef was tender and well-seasoned, blending seamlessly into the porridge while still offering enough texture to keep each spoonful interesting. I especially liked how clean the flavors were -- subtle ginger notes, a gentle savoriness, and no heaviness, making it feel like true comfort food rather than something overly rich. Portion sizes felt fair for the price, and the menu overall offered a strong mix of classic Cantonese breakfast and snack options, which makes me want to return and explore more. This is the kind of spot I'd come back to regularly when I'm craving something warm, nostalgic, and reliably good. Overall, I'd absolutely recommend Yin Ji Chang Fen if you're looking for authentic rice noodle rolls and a well-executed congee in the Quincy area. It's simple food done with care -- and sometimes that's exactly what hits the spot. read more

This small but clean place has some of the fastest service. We didn't wait too long during lunch time on a Thursday. Food arrived only a few minutes after ordered. We ordered steamed rice rolls with pork and shrimps. They put lettuce inside the steam rice roll which is different than what I normally see. I don't like it. I will ask for them to omit veggies in my rice rolls. Porridge with pork and persevered eggs was yummy. Soy sauce noodles was on point! I would come back to eat more dishes. I wish they had HK milk tea on their menu. read more

We've been meaning to stop in and try this spot, and for us we were very happy we did. The space was built out so nicely, very cute and clean. Servers were all nice and brought our dishes out quickly. Now some may not feel the same but for us we enjoyed the rice rolls, the rolls had nice texture, good chew and didn't just disintegrate like at dimsum spots. The thickness of the noodle was just right for us. We got the following dishes: + shredded pork w/ preserved egg! So yummy they have all the condiments you'd need right on the table, just ask for the ljy hot oil, white pepper and a drop or two of vinegar. The pork was so tender and we slurped down the congee. Yes by itself, congee is bland (but i feel like that's how congee is supposed to be i mean, many of us eat it when we are sick haha) so i loved this dish. + BBQ pork w/ chives - this wasn't my favorite but the meats were cooked well and the rice rolls again were nice. More bbq flavor would hit! + Dough stick roll - nicely fried dough, good textured didn't taste overdone and oily. + HK style roll w/ special sauces - one of the simplest yet our favorite roll! Peanut sauce, sesame sauce? And soy sauce mixture i believe but it's usually our go to at other spots. Probably grab the congee 2 bowls and the HK style rolls next visit! I thought the price was fine, everywhere is getting expensive for dining out, but most things on menu were 7.95-12.95. Slightly more than a dimsum rice roll order, but better quality. read more

As a Chinese American this restaurant felt very nostalgic and homely. The food was flavorful and cozy, but overall eating experience could be improved. Food: Everything we ordered basically tasted as good as these simpler comfort food can taste, but it is a treat to find this authentic taste outside of historic Chinatowns. The rice rolls specifically were so springy and fun to eat. This is the type of food you can clear plate after plate. Service: We went pretty soon after opening and there are some service aspects they can continue to improve on like queue management and the seating arrangement. Atmosphere: In a way the noise and hectic energy was nostalgic. The constant bustle of families wrangling their kids and food service really floods the small space. But without that nostalgic veneer and the joy of seeing family's where you might have been decades ago, the dining experience can definitely be more streamlined and customer friendly. read more

Really enjoyed my visit here! The food came out quickly and everything was flavorful; the congee was comforting and the rice rolls were spot on. The service was great too. If I had one small suggestion, it would be to fry the sweet youtiao (fried crueler) a little longer so it's less dense and more crisp throughout. Despite that, the meal was satisfying, and I'm already looking forward to my next visit. read more

No need to go to New York for rice roll, even though they have less selection, but the taste is way better than the Brookline location, even though they offer a different menu. The location was small but clean. Right now, it is still a soft opening and no take-out out but I do see a few people going inside to order take-out. I came around 11ish, there are few tables empty but by the time they finished, there was a line. The service is fast, we finished the meal within 40 minutes. Ox-Tongue pastry - A little oily, but it goes well with the congee since not many bakeries offer this pastry Beef and shrimp rice roll - The beef was soft, and it was sliced beef not like the one in dim sum restuarant and shrimp are bouncy and fresh Pork and shrimp rice roll - Sliced pork was soft and rice roll are soft Boat congee - Wish they put more rice on the congee to make it thicker, but it seems to have the sweet taste from the seafood. I would prefer to come here for rice roll if I am not craving for other dim sum. The portion of the rice roll is larger than the dim sum restuarant. It worth it. If you don't want wait, come early or after peak hours since they only have 13 small tables. Definitely will come back again. read more

Highlights included the fresh cilantro & scallion rice roll, savory beef brisket rice roll, homey congee, and the spam in the fried noodles TEXTURE: 5/5 - loved the smooth and bouncy texture of the rice rolls, and crowd favorite: fried dough rice rolls PRICE: 5/5 - budget friendly and would com back. We ordered a lot and our total came to $70 SERVING SIZE: 4/5 - one order contains one large rice roll vs. the typical multiple, smaller pieces at dim sum. The fish congee was big! SERVICE: 4/5 - walked in at 6:30pm on a Tuesday and a few other tables were seated. Our dishes were served 10-15min after ordering, and there was only one waitress ATMOSPHERE: 4/5 - space is on the smaller side w maybe 20 seats. Cool to see the Guangzhou-originated chain now here in Quincy PARKING: 4/5 - got a free street spot on Billings Rd. Otherwise, there's Vane St Lot, a free 2-hour parking lot nearby, or more street spots on Hancock St read more

Yin Ji Chang Fen is the newest addition to North Quincy's food scene! Here they offer a variety of different rice rolls, porridge/congee, and Southern Chinese/Hong Kong appetizers like curry fish balls. Luckily for us, we didn't experience any wait time for a table when we visited the other day for lunch. I will say, service here is quite SLOW. Took forever for someone to come take our order... maybe like 10 min? It wasn't until we walked up to the counter where I'm guessing the owner/manager was & he waved for a server to come take our order. Here's what we ordered: -bbq pork (char siu) rice roll ($6.75) -fried dough rice roll ($8.95) -rice roll w/ mixed sauce ($7.00) -preserved egg & pork congee ($7.75) I think the prices are pretty friendly! The portion sizes were standard and similar to what you'll find at dimsum spots nearby. Our favorites were the rice rolls w/ mixed sauce & preserved egg + pork congee! YOU MUST ask for their hot chili oil, it's very good and a tad different from your usual hot chili oil. I wish the fried dough, itself, was crispier. The bbq pork/char siu rice roll came whole... not sure if it was supposed to be cut and they just forgot or if it was supposed to be like that haha. Made it messy to eat. Overall, I think Yin Ji Chang Fen is pretty all right... definitely hit or miss though. Would for sure come back for the rice rolls w/ mixed sauce & preserved egg + pork congee. Parking: free 2 hr parking spots on Billing Rd & free parking lot across the street tucked behind PTea. read more

We came on a Sunday. The wait wasn't to bad. We ordered 2 rice rolls, congee, curry fish balls and scallions pancakes. Food came out fast and warm not hot. We had to ask for water. Service was not great. The food was bland. The rice rolls felt reheated because the texture was stiff. The congee was already. The fishballs tasted okay. The scallions pancakes was to thick and sauce was watery. It's overprice was the small portions. Won't recommend this place. read more

Yin Ji Chang Fen is a popular chain of Cantonese rice roll shops, and this is their first location in the Boston area. The place is on the smaller side, with several tables, though most of them only seat two people. Service is quick and efficient, and the food comes out fast. We ordered the pork jook and a few different rice rolls. The rice rolls themselves aren't too oily and have a good flavor; they might be a little plain without the soy sauce, but they're still pretty good. The jook has a light ginger scent to it, though there's no actual ginger in the bowl. It's also on the soupier side, not super thick. The portion sizes are really generous, and there's a good amount of toppings mixed in. It's a solid spot for a quick, comforting meal and fills a niche for this kind of Cantonese breakfast and snack food in Boston. read more

This place has horrible service, and the food is unreasonably overpriced. I don't know why every time when I go here, I end up having stomach pain or diarrhea or a combination of the two afterwards. This could be from the tap water they serve. The water tasted funny so they may be serving unfiltered tap water which is a safety hazard. Due to this, this could also mean they don't make the food clean either. So ridiculous. Stay away if you want to protect your health! read more

This place is a hidden Gem, you walk in and the windows and door spotless like the rest of place very clean here. Inside the decor and lighting was perfect not to bright or dark. Service was very good once I figured out what to get she came right over to take my order. The food came out quick and hot. Every order was delicious but my favorite was the pork& shrimp rice roll. This is a place to put on your bucket list. Well done here keep up what your doing here and don't change. read more

Amazing Cantonese restaurant originally hailing from Guangzhou, China (my ancestoral hometown). They are known for their tasty, customizable congee and fresh rice rolls, which are 10 times better than the rice rolls you get at dim sum. For years, I had to venture down to Flushing to get their congee. At last, they finally open one up in Quincy! The restaurant is small just like the Flushing one. I would say the Flushing location has an overall better tasting congee, but this location has way better Chinese donuts (very crispy)!!! Also, this location needs to add oysters as a congee topping. read more

Warm and welcoming right at the door. We arrived just as they opened around 8:30 AM, and both the food and service were great. The pricing is reasonable compared to other restaurants around Quincy that sell the same type of comfort food. However, the seating was a bit tight. read more

Ordered takeout on a Saturday around 11:30am. Was told the order would take 30 minutes but it was ready a tiny bit quicker. The cheung fun have different fillings than your standard dim sum. Not a fan of the iceberg lettuce in it but really liked it with the yellow garlic chives. Tried the beef and shrimp. No complaints with either. The noodle is thin so that's a huge plus. I see the place is small so I'll need to return to try dining in when I'm with only a couple of people. Sorry, forgot to take pics. read more

Limited menu items that consists of congee, rice rolls and some apps. It was recommended that we come here because the rice rolls were fresh and the meat was tender and smooth. Generally when I get rice rolls at dim sum or restaurants, I always gravitate towards shrimp rolls because beef ones don't taste as good. The word We had ordered the shrimp and beef, add egg rice roll, shrimp and pork, add egg rice rolls, preserved egg and pork congee and beef congee and fried dough. The meat did not disappoint. The meat was very smooth and tender in the rice rolls and the congee. The preserved egg and pork congee had large pieces of pork and preserved eggs, which was great and was enjoyable with the fried dough. Pricing and sizing was standard. There was a friend who was eating there as well that gave us some of their house made ox tongue pastry. It was too oily and not as good, so I would not suggest this. The service overall was okay. The space is small but it was sometimes hard to get the attention of a waiter or waitress. Parking is only street parking. We did take out as well and took home rice rolls. Unfortunately, we didn't get any sauce on or on the side. We didn't not realize until we got home. I would say I do like the texture of these rice rolls. The rice rolls themselves are on the thinner side, flat rectangular shape rather than rolls you see at dim sum or other restaurants. I would say if you like a software rice rolls this place is nice, but if you prefer a firmer rice roll you may not like it. Overall I would recommend and would come again! read more

Very delicious and authentic Chang Fen! It's opened for more 60 years! Great taste, often crowded though.

Grand opening rice roll and congee restaurant in Quincy, MA. Taste of the food is decent but not hot at all when the food comes out just little warm side, I guess most of the food is already precooked in the kitchen. The price for the size of each dish is too pricey, which means the portions of each dish is so small and the price is too high. read more

Excited to try as the Vancouver one has lots of stuff on menu. The additional stuff is better than the cheng fen. This menu was very limited, a little disappointed. Service was not great, staff seemed not experienced at all or just too busy taking care of friends and relatives. Over 5 mins sitting there and no one came. Waved someone, just sort of ignored us. It wasn't busy so not sure about how it could be when it does get busy. Just trying once is enough if menu is just jook and Fen and service non existent. read more

Many happy customers already raved about the excellent food and service at Yin Ji Chang Fen. I just want to add my emphasis to the fact that this is not just an ordinary rice noodle shop staffed by exhausted, indifferent, snippy workers like in Chinatown. Everyone working in this place is highly energetic, attentive and kind with good eyes for detail. For example, when the restaurant was packed and we were waiting for our table, the manager took the time to bring out an extra chair for us to use. How nice. It is more that just ambiance, it is a great experience. We are definitely going back soon. read more

Tried once and would I go back? Not really. Overpriced and small portion. Food tasted bland. Nothing so special about it. The stupid curry fish balls look so depressing for the price you're paying and it's not even good. The only thing I like is the fried crueller that's about it. read more
