BEST CHINESE RESTAURANT IN BOSTON. The food portions are decent, the prices are decent, and the food is INCREDIBLE. Tasting incredibly flavorful, fresh, and delicious. We ordered so much food and every dish hit the spot. My favourites are the spicy beef, the fish in sour spicy soup (酸辣汤, this one a tiny bit too salty though）, and the spicy cumin lamb （司岚羊肉）. I highly recommend these dishes and this restaurant. You really can’t go wrong. If you like spice, the spice here ain’t bad at all (honestly wish it was spicier).

This is hands down one of the best authentic Chinese restaurants I’ve ever experienced. Every dish we ordered was exceptional, with perfect seasoning and bold flavors. The cauliflower cooked with pork was a standout, the spicy fish fillet had the perfect balance of heat, and the clam and winter melon soup might just be the best Chinese soup I’ve ever had. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!

I was absolutely floored by this restaurant. I deeply regret never having tried it in the past 6 years despite passing by it many times and seeing it packed! We had to wait around 13 minutes after joining the waitlist around 6pm on a Saturday. Ordering is very easy to do through a QR code, and they are very efficient at getting the food out and turning tables around. We got two mains, one appetizer, and 2 rice for 3 people, and that was plenty (came out to $60 before tip). I liked every single dish including the rice. The dish that impressed me the most was the fish fillet with pickled vegetables ($25.95). The fish was plentiful and super tender, with great flavor from the broth and pickled vegetables, but there were also glass noodles and 3 different kinds of mushrooms, which I wasn't expecting. This is a 10/10 dish, and I would absolutely get it again. The house special stir fried tender beef ($20.95) was also very delicious! The beef was tender and flavorful, and we liked the bell peppers and cilantro. It was more of a home style dish than the grand fish fillet, but I'm glad we got to try it. We also got the black fungus salad ($6.95) which was a delightful way to start the meal. The sauce has soy sauce, black vinegar, sesame oil, and lots of garlic. The rice was also delicious! Hunan Cuisine wasn't on my radar until today, but now it would probably be my top pick for dinner in Chinatown. I'll definitely be back!

Perfect place for a great lunch! The portions are huge and the food is amazing. We got the sweet and sour pineapple shrimp, Kung Pao chicken, and chicken and broccoli. Each was the perfect dish, and so easy to share. Add a little of their chili oil to a few bites and you've got the perfect meal. The service is always so friendly and kind. They're fast paced, but never overbearing. You never feel rushed at this place, but you also never have to wait for a refill or adding something more. Overall, one of the best Chinese food restaurants in the Northeast!

Authentic Chinese food, fast service although crowded on a Friday evening. The waitresses/waiters are doing their best to serve tables as soon as possible so might look a bit rushing, but it’s understandable since the wait line is long.
