The dumplings were decent, but the skin was a bit dry and many of them had cracked, so there was no soup left inside. Overall, the food was quite good, but we were surprised that the pork dish we ordered was $40+ for such a small portion—especially at a place that doesn’t feel particularly high-end. Still, it’s a good enough spot.

We were craving soup dumplings and boy did this place deliver. Tried a bunch of different ones, thanks rainbow option! The truffle soup dumplings as well as crab soup dumplings were my favorites. Table app ordering was an easy, efficient experience for our table of 5. Orange chicken was some of the best I've ever had. Will come back just for dumplings but the Peking duck and the lobster entrees around us smelled amazing as well.

Worth a try to have different rice plates and crispy chicken. Not a great place with nice ambience however, the food we tried filled the gap. Food portion was good enough for to for a single menu item. Service was not that great as we would prefer some one to talk a bit and explain the menu and serve happily however, it seemed they prefer more of local clientelle. Seafood is definitely overpriced. Would recommend to try this restaurant for takeaway (choice of rices, crispy chicken and dim sums).

I came here for lobsters because they have a special for 2 lobsters for $46 but tbh other than beef chow fen I can't recommend anything else. The lobsters are small but given the price I will let it slide. The satay beef is super weird. They give large portions but they also added clear noodle which is super weird and not very delicious with not enough satay sauce. The steamed giant clam is priced $7 a piece but they basically spread 1.5 clams with a lot of clear noodle to make it look like 3 giant clams with 3 shells so if you do the math they are not as cheap as they make them out to be. I'd rather they charge full price like $10 but gives you the actual full amount. I know this because I cook at home and then I know how much meat is in 1 clam. As for lobster I have a feeling they just cook a bunch and give you pieces with 2 heads but they are alright. The best is beef chow fen which is surprisingly good. This is a cheap restaurant so ambience sucks with noisy diners and crammed seating. Don't take your date unless you've been together for a long time. Service is typical Chinese service fast and efficient but not attentive.

This place is so good! I love chicken and waffles and someone recommended I check it out for this reason and I was not disappointed! The chicken and waffles were delicious along with the kimchi fried rice and the burger! The cocktails were also delicious and so perfectly crafted! The prices were very good, especially for Boston! It has a very cool vibe and they were playing great Latin music! Definitely check it out!

We had the pleasure of lunch at Shōjō Boston on a Wednesday afternoon, and it was a truly delightful experience. From the moment we stepped in, we were impressed by the restaurant's beautifully decorated interior—modern yet inviting, with a unique flair that made it feel special. The service was exceptional. The waitstaff was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable, ensuring that our experience was seamless from start to finish. Every dish we tried was bursting with flavor, showcasing the restaurant’s commitment to quality and creativity. We truly enjoyed every bite, and the food was both delicious and visually stunning.Overall, Shōjō Boston exceeded our expectations. Whether you're looking for a casual meal or a place to celebrate, this spot is definitely worth a visit. We can’t wait to return!

Cool restaurant inside of ACP Hotel. It has fancy Chinese banquet cuisine, if you rent a room. Otherwise, it's home-style cooking in the lobby area.

The service was amazing! The food is a traditional Chinese cuisine!

This place was a place that I visited as a child. Coming back though, it did not disappoint in food, service, and atmosphere. The dishes were amazing and felt really interactive while being surprisingly super hot, the staff was kind and understanding, and the murals and paintings in the menus and restaurants itself added a really nice touch to the place. Come here if you want an amazing time with cheap but delicious food. 10/10

Was dragged here by friends insisting that I must try what 'authentic' Chinese food tastes like. And it did not disappoint! A very homely and quaint shop around the corner in Chinatown. I got the Veg tofu rice noodles with tomato soup and it was absolutely delicious. The dish arrived boiling hot, and you're supposed to add your noodles and the side dishes to it and let them cook for bit before eating. I did burn my tongue throughout the experience but that did not stop me from scarfing my food down. Definitely recommend to anyone visiting chinatown.

Modern take on Chinese food. This place has only been open for a couple of months. Stopped for a lunch on a weekday. We arrived at 1:30, a little later than the lunch rush. But we were still surprised to see the place was completely empty. It's cute and nice. Seems clean. Food is a tick pricey for Philly at lunch time, especially for Chinatown. Discounts for cash here, so hit the ATM on the way. Food is good 👍🏽

You can enjoy the best food here and receive cheerful service from the waiters. No matter how busy they are, they will come over as long as you call. There is also a KTV for party, and drinks are also provided. As long as the needs that can be met can be met, I can only Say you have to try it once to understand.

Had the most amazing experience here! Was hosted for an event, and the food was top tier. This is the best elevated Chinese food I’ve ever had. They have unique dishes such as blueberry general tso’s! You can tell they use top quality ingredients as well. Service was fantastic, and the decor and ambiance is elevated and beautiful. Highly recommend- I think this is the best Chinese cuisine in Chinatown/philly! They serve alcohol as well!

The food is delicious and portions are big. Please note that their dishes are generously portioned. We recommend inquiring about serving sizes before placing your order, unless you are dining with a large group.

I’ve been waiting for rice rolls to come to Philly and I’m happy to report these hit the spot! The rice rolls are so fresh, soft, & flavorful. The prices aren’t as low as some places in NYC china town, but $8 isn’t bad either. I can’t wait to come back! The staff is also very friendly & accommodated putting the sauce on the side (not pictured) for my bf’s rolls since he is gluten free.

The food here was really good and so does the service. The restaurant was clean and very comfortable when i entered. The portion was average. I only tried a few dishes this time but will go back again to try more. Definitely recommend this to friends and family.

this is my most favorite place to eat in Chinatown, and one of my favorite restaurants in Philly. the food is so fresh, flavorful, and authentic. you can really tell a lot of work and love is put into the food. for under $10 you can get a big ol bowl of hand made noodles served in a complex and comforting broth. most times, i am unable to finish my bowl of ramen, but i walk out feeling so full, warmed, and ready for a nap. my husband and i love this spot and we have so many great memories here. we’ve brought friends and family. i often come here by myself to read, write, watch tv, or really just sit there and enjoy the atmosphere and i always feel welcomed. you can tell other patrons feel the same, often coming to sit, eat, and watch tv for awhile because it feels so homey. please come and support this small business! thank you for the amazing service:)

We really love the chongqing fried chicken and the perfect taste soup here. The boneless chicken is so tender and crispy, you just can’t stop trying it.

Have been wanting to try fan tuan forever and realized this place sells it!! $3.50 per roll and very tasty. I will be coming back here regularly to try their other items as well

This is what I have been looking for all these years. Perfection! The bun is soft and the stuffings are delicious (hard boil egg, pork, sausage) "Steam bun"

Very tasty, fresh food, will come again.

First time here and is already my fav hotpot place in town. Great food and great service. Can't have enough of this!

This is a very small Chinese restaurant with only a few tables inside. The main business I guess is take out orders. There’s a big section of barbecue meats. It includes roast pig, barbecue pork, white chicken and barbecue ribs. I’ve tried everything except for the barbecue pork but I knew it’s good. The roast pig is the best. It has really crispy skin and all the meats are tasty. I always ordered barbecue meats on rice bento box which also includes Chinese greens. It’s 11.99 for 1 meat, 12.99 for 2 meats and 12.99 for 3. It’s really worth to order the 3 meats. Remember to ask for extra sauce on rice. I always return.

I heard their bbq was above average and so we came for late lunch and were seated right away. They have two small rooms and they sat us near the entrance so we were cold every time the door opened. The 2 way bbq rice plate with soy sauce chicken and roast pig with crispy skin was served cold - well room temperature but they are in the entrance area so it’s pretty cold. Portion was on the modest side and the chicken was a bit undercooked for my liking and I am accustomed to the Chinese style of doneness but this was too undercooked. The soy sauce chicken did not have the rich taste it should so not sure they are using a well seasoned master sauce. The roast pig was ok and had a good proportion of fat to lean but the skin was barely crispy and the taste was rather bland. Disappointing bbq. We also ordered spare ribs and bitter melon rice plate and despite the black bean sauce, it was also bland. The yee mein had a nice wok hay and reminded me of my grandmother’s noodles. Service is efficient and place is clean with cute decor. They have an extensive menu so maybe we will return and try other items. U bet they shine when you are with a large group and order family style.
