Definitely order the XO rolled noodles; I can't remember the last time I tried something new, that I enjoyed as much as this dish. My one qualm about the experience is the service--it wasn't terrible, but the server didn't check in on us, when we had obviously finished eating. We waited an extra 10-15 minutes for our check, even though the restaurant was fairly empty while we were there.

From the very attentive and supportive staff to the intricate details that they have throughout the restaurant , it is truly transformative experience. As for the food, if you're in the mood of something spicy, especially that Sichuan type of heat, then the beef soup is the one for you! I personally would recommend the green pepper pork because it was absolutely delicious! I could not stop eating it and it was just perfect in every which way! Looking forward to coming here again to try many other delicious foods and will probably bring a couple of more friends because their group seating is absolutely stunning!

5 for food 2 for service…read more We love the NYC version of this restaurant, and were excited to visit the Boston spot for mouth numbing dishes. Starting with an iPad menu, our ordering experience with our waiter was subpar. We ended up with extra things ordered that weren't part of our initial order. In good news the food was absolutely delicious. Everything was fire and the waiter poured 5 glasses of water for 3 of us. So we could cool down without needing to flag him down. With the only non-Asian waiter in the restaurant, he struggled with basic elements of service. Inattentive. Requests went unmet (lemons for water). We sat for more than 15 mins after asking to box up leftovers and to close our check. This was all a little embarrassing, as we brought my boyfriend's father. After singing praises of the NYC spot, this was a disappointment.

Came for the dishes instead of hotpot this time and they did not disappoint. All the plating was…read moregreat and the waiters were attentive making sure we had everything. One dish I would recommend is Xi'an Cold Rice noodles, it's an appetizer but was on par for a dish. The proportion was on the larger side and it had a perfect spice, all I have to say was it was delicious and for $9.95 you cannot go wrong. The dan dan noodles were good, but I would say the cold noodles were better. The golden buns were also great, a classic dish that is always loved with a great crisp. We did get the wrong sushi roll, unsure if they misheard us or if they thought we pointed to a different one but I'm glad they did because the Thunder Roll was delicious. I think it was the yellowtail that was on top that tied everything together, it was just really good. Overall a great place for dishes if you haven't tried it before you won't be disappointed.

We had a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon for less than $40 b As an operations guy, my suggestion to management would be to suggest two things: 1. The salmon sashimi I had was a bit cold. It may be because I was at the 5:30 seating, but it taste better cool, but not cold. 2. Not sure where the bottles of wine are stored, but our cab was warm. Analogous to the sushi, red wine is better cool to room temperature vs warm. Again, I am a big fan of this place. Just want to provide balanced feedback to make an awesome place even more ...awesome?

It's convenient, but it does make the experience feel a little less personal. They also stay open late, which makes them a solid option for a late-night meal. Cucumber Salad (Cold) - 10/10 ($7.95) I grew up eating cucumber salad, and everyone has their own version. FU CHUN JU's included cilantro, which I actually really enjoyed. I do think it's a little overpriced for what it is, but it was absolutely delicious. I'd order it again without hesitation. Shrimp Fried Rice - 8/10 ($15.95) My only complaint was that the rice was slightly overcooked. That said, the flavor was excellent, and there were plenty of the small shrimp throughout you got shrimp in almost every bite. It was a good portion and made for a satisfying dish overall. Spring Rolls - 7/10 ($5.95) The menu photo made it look like you'd get five, but we only received three. They came out hot and crispy, and while they were tasty, they didn't really stand out compared to the rest of the meal. Traditional Pork Soup Dumplings - 9.5/10 ($12.95) You get six soup dumplings, and they were fantastic. I asked for chili oil on the side, which paired perfectly with them. The filling was warm, flavorful, and comforting. Definitely one of the highlights of the meal. Pan-Fried Pork Buns - 8/10 ($8.95) You get four buns with a perfectly crispy bottom and a pork filling encased in a fluffy dough. The only downsides were that our table had some sticky residue on it when we sat down, and there was water on one of the seats. Since everything is handled through your phone, getting assistance can be a little difficult. If you need something, you're either getting it yourself or trying to flag someone down, and the staff seemed very busy throughout our visit. That said, they were still attentive. At one point, our food was almost forgotten, but they caught it right away as we were about to leave and brought it out to us, which I really appreciated. One thing I noticed was how quickly the food came out. It did make me wonder how much is prepped ahead of time, but everything tasted good, so I assume they have an efficient prep process. I am hoping it's as fresh as it seems. Overall, I'd definitely come back. The food was excellent, especially the dumplings, and the late hours make it an easy choice when you're craving good Chinese food later in the evening.

I do think I'd order differently the next time around, but this was a solid meal. Shanghai fried pork noodle ($17.64) - these noodles are amazing. Perfectly bouncy and chewy with really tender pork and a great savory flavor, I'd 100% get these every time I come back here in the future. They were a little oily, but not so much that it was a negative. Everything just melded together really well and I basically inhaled this entire serving in minutes. I think the noodles are fresh noodles too - the texture and bounciness was just really really pleasant. 10/10 for these every time. Pan fried pork bun ($10.56) - I was a little less impressed with these. I really like dumplings with the thicker dough skin, but this was a fluffy bun type of wrapper instead. The meat inside was a little mushy, and the juices has seeped into the skin which I normally like with a chewy skin, but with this fluffy skin it just left a lot of the buns very soggy. And because the juice had seeped out of the meat, the meat was also a bit mushy inside. The taste was good but not a huge fan of these, though I'm sure they are better in person. Still, I've been here twice already and will keep coming back, especially for those delicious noodles!

Myers+Chang is a modern Asian-inspired restaurant that blends flavors from across East and…read moreSoutheast Asia into a menu built around small, shareable plates. We walked into a space with an energetic atmosphere, an open kitchen, a lively dining room, and a contemporary design that makes the restaurant feel both casual and polished. The layout encourages ordering several dishes for the table, and the variety across the menu makes it easy to build a meal that feels different with each visit. The small plates are the biggest draw because they let you try a wide range of flavors without committing to a single entrée. The pork belly buns are one of the signature dishes, featuring tender pork inside soft steamed buns with a balance of sweet and savory flavors. The dan dan noodles are another standout with their rich, spicy sauce, while the Brussels sprouts have developed a strong following thanks to their crispy texture and bold seasoning. We also appreciated that many dishes are available as half portions, making it easier to sample more of the menu without ordering too much food. The menu offers a good balance between familiar favorites and more creative dishes, with each plate feeling thoughtfully prepared and packed with flavor. There are also plenty of vegetarian and vegan options, making it easy for groups with different dietary preferences to find something they enjoy. The service matched the pace of the restaurant during our visit. The staff were attentive, dishes came out steadily as they were ready, and the servers were helpful with recommendations for building a meal around multiple small plates. The restaurant stays busy throughout the evening, so making a reservation is a good idea, especially for dinner or larger groups. Myers+Chang is one of the better places in Boston for creative Asian-inspired small plates. The combination of bold flavors, shareable portions, lively atmosphere, and consistently strong service makes it a restaurant that is easy to return to, especially if you enjoy trying a variety of dishes instead of ordering a traditional entrée.

Unfortunately, Yelp doesn't allow for half stars, but Yunnan Kitchen would be a solid 4.5/5 for me…read more A group of friends and I made the trek to the South End on a rather sad, rainy day, so we had high expectations for the food. For the most part, Yunnan delivered. We came in on a Sunday at 5 pm, and the restaurant was moderately busy. We were able to find seating and order relatively quickly. Based on one friend's suggestion and a bit of online help, we ordered the Boiled Fish Fillet in Chili Oil, the Mint Beef, the Potato Pancake, and the Stir-Fried Rice Cakes. Overall, the meal was pretty good. The stars of the dinner were the Stir-Fried Rice Cakes and the Mint Beef (which was realllyyyy minty and herbaceous), while the fish tasted pretty standard for a typical Chinese restaurant. The Potato Pancake added some nice texture, but it wasn't particularly memorable and I probably wouldn't order it again. Now you might ask... okay? Cozy restaurant, fast service, good food--why the 0.5 off? And sadly, it was the dessert. Call me picky, but this was the part I had the highest hopes for. After finishing our meal, we decided to get the Coconut Delight and the Devil Sweet Sticky Balls (their words, not mine). The Coconut Delight was... okay. The best part was the bread (three pieces per cup), which, when soaked in the coconut milk, was just heavenly. But beyond that, the dish resembled a rather sad, runny coconut sago. The Devil Sweet Sticky Balls weren't much better. We loved the texture of the rice balls (chewy!), but the brown sugar syrup tasted burnt and left a strange, bitter aftertaste. This may have been a one-off, so we'll have to return to verify (and when we do, I'll update this review). But to give Yunnan the benefit of the doubt, I'll round up to a full 5 stars for now. For main dishes, fast service, and a cozy ambiance, Yunnan hits all the right boxes (just not quite dessert!)

The lighting here is very dim and gives off romantic vibes, although it's not necessarily a…read moreromantic spot. We came for dinner on a Sunday and it was fairly quiet. The food is authentic Yunnan cuisine, and while many menu items are labeled spicy, I wouldn't consider them very spicy. The flavors are more well-seasoned with just a slight hint of spice. The stir-fried rice cakes were delicious and reminded me of pad see ew in texture and flavor. The beef with longhorn peppers was very tender, and the sweet and sour pork had the perfect balance of crispiness, sweetness, and tang. The fish fillet in chili oil came in a huge portion, but I wished it had more spice. It tasted more like lightly spiced oil and lacked additional depth of flavor. I also did not enjoy the Dali mushrooms, as they were very dry and bland even with the side of chili powder. Overall, I would come back because the food is good, but if you're expecting bold heat, I recommend asking for a higher spice level. The service was okay.
