The most authentic food that I have ever had in the US, also very new customer friendly. It is an experience you should never miss out on.

Hidden gem! Very tasty and authentic food! We ordered lotus root with braised pig trotter and stir fried green pepper and tofu. The next door ordered bao zai fan and it smelled so good! Wish it’s warmer during winter though as the door opens directly to outside.

I’ve found my go-to dim sum spot!! Windsor Dim Sum Cafe is absolutely awesome. Every dish we tried was packed with flavor and cooked to perfection. The food was fresh, hot, and absolutely delicious. Plus, the service was quick, and the staff was super friendly and welcoming. Already planned my next trip here ♨️

Google reviews scared me but Reddit locals swear by Windsor so we stopped in on Sunday for lunch. We loved everything, the staff was helpful with the menu, the hot tea was very good. The dim sum arrived to the table fast and was very fresh! Since there were only 2 of us we did share a big round table with 3 others patrons with no issues. It’s a very small place but we didn’t have to wait. We recommend the soup dumplings, steamed pork buns, sticky rice in lotus leaf wrap, and the scallion pancakes. That’s everything we ordered, didn’t have a bad bite at all. All dim sum was 6.95 per plate. 2 plates per person (shared) was all we could do before we were full.

Update - August 2022 ⭐️⭐️⭐️ My Dad ordered from here today and the food was more like old times. The rice was fresh and the PuPu platter was great. Update - June 2022⭐️ We ordered food today and I was shocked that it was bad. The rice & egg foo young were not flavorful at all and were very dark. And the crab rangoon even tasted different. I’m so sad because this place was an old faithful for our family. So many of the Boston Chinese restaurants have changed bit for the better. Original Review ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A family favorite. We only order takeout. Everything is cooked to order except the pork fried rice. Don’t order that.

A moment of true nostalgia. As a Boston native, one thing I will forever love is the food, especially the Chinese Food! Chinatown Express is one of my favorite on the go restaurants. I’ve been coming here since 2002 and though I moved out of Boston in 2005, I make sure to come get an order everytime I’m in town. Good food, good portions, and most of all, GREAT Combination plates. My go combo is the D11. Chicken Fingers, Boneless Spareribs, Beef Teriyaki, and Pork Fried Rice. This combination is a perfect balance of pork, beef, and chicken. The ribs are meaty and have a perfect sweet to salt balance. The beef teriyaki is well done and pairs well with the pork fried rice. The highlight for me is the moist, meaty chicken fingers. The meat is seasoned as well as the batter is too. The pork fried rice brings everything together as I take a scoop of rice with every bite of meat. LoL!!!! Now, if you know what’s good for you, make sure to get the Duck Sauce. One thing about the Chinese food in Boston is the Duck Sauce. It’s sweet and provides an added flavor profile to everything on the plate. Also, regardless of what you order, the duck sauce will always make it taste even better. LoL!!! If you're in the area you’ve gotta stop in and get some food from Chinatown Express. The menu has a variety of options. The lunch and dinner specials are awesome. The service is good. And the food is fresh. 20 years later and they still haven’t lost the quality goodness that I enjoy!

Solid spot in Chinatown for Cantonese classics. Came here for dinner on a Tuesday evening. Chinatown is generally quiet on weekdays, so it was a bit surprising to see the restaurant almost full. Since none of us were experts on Cantonese food, we didn’t want to explore unfamiliar terrain, so we opted for their most popular menu - Ginger & Scallion Lobster, Roast Duck, and the Steamed oysters. As soon as we ordered, our server suddenly appeared with a huge bucket with a live lobster inside. We didn’t realize there was a size option when ordering the Ginger & Scallion Lobster and casually said “large”. Seconds later, our server appeared with a bucket and a live lobster, asking us to confirm. The lobster itself was nicely done—lightly coated in cornstarch for a delicate crisp, though the ginger-scallion flavor was more subtle than expected. Delicious, but borderline impossible to eat without fully committing your hands. The Steamed Oysters were the biggest oysters I’ve ever seen. Not sure if they were a special breed or straight-up GMO, but either way, the size alone was shocking. Taste-wise, pretty standard, but the meaty texture was satisfying. Crispy Fried Roast Duck was my favorite of the meal. A bit on the salty side, but it didn’t matter. Despite being drenched in soy sauce, the skin stayed perfectly crisp, and the meat inside was juicy, fatty, and tender. On the side, we also ordered the Stir Fried Chinese Watercress and Yang Chow Fried Rice. Both were solid, no-frills staples done the Classic Cantonese way. Probably not the most budget-friendly spot in Chinatown. Yet, with traditional Cantonese joints slowly fading from the trend, places like this are getting harder to come by. Would probably come back now and then just for another rundown of that duck.

Hard to narrow-down options in an area filled with so many options but I would definitely make this a stop if you happen to be in the area. My first time having clams prepared with black bean sauce but the pairing worked well. Vegetable fried rice really stood out with ample vegetables to round out the dish versus relying on the starch, which most places do.

So good. Been craving authentic rice rolls but didn’t want to haul to Chinatown. Only downside is there’s a ton of MSG, but otherwise it’s AMAZING

I thought it was pretty tasty. The combo is great value.

You can enjoy a hearty and flavorful Chinese meal on Amtrak. You can choose between rice or noodles, along with a selection of proteins and vegetables, all at a relatively affordable price. It’s a good option for Chinese fast food while traveling!

Literally serving cold food don't bother. Cold rice cold shrimp cold vegetables the whole damn plate cold not even lukewarm. Stay away. I was in a rush don't be like me. If this plate was free I'd return it. I ate two pieces of shrimp out of the picture.

Great dry mala pot! You can customize what you want to add in your pot and choose the spice level. I recommend mild spicy (小辣) for people who don’t eat that spicy! The portion is big so you can share with the others. Their bento box is okay. Delicious and authentic but since every dishes were premade for you to choose sometimes it’s not very fresh.

One of the best dry mala places in Boston! Their mala is very rich and flavourful aka spicy, so it is advised to get medium. Overall the selection for meat, seafood, and vegetables were plenty and it was also cooked well.

Casual yet stylish spot that serves solid HK food. Allston's Chinese food scene is solid, but Baby Cafe fills a niche with its Hong Kong-style comfort food. While HK cuisine might not be worlds apart from the usual Chinese fare, there are definitely some dishes with European influences here that make it unique. I swung by twice for lunch, and despite its low ratings, they had some good dishes. Couple dishes that I enjoyed were the Salt & Pepper Shishamo and the Beef Stew Rice. It’s rare to see Shishamo at a Chinese restaurant, but the quality of the fish was quite good - crispy and packed with flavorful roe. The stewed beef was also very tender and I liked that they kept the bits of tendon to add a satisfying, jelly-like texture. There were, however, some dishes that I thought were just okay - Baked Pork Chop Rice and the HK Style Butter Toast. The pork chop was on the dry side, and the basic tomato sauce didn’t do much to elevate the dish. The butter toast had not much to write home about on its own—it was dense and didn’t have much flavor—but paired with condensed milk, it went from plain to satisfying in one swoop. As for their signature Iced Baby Milk Tea, it was a playful surprise: they serve it with milk tea frozen into the shape of a little character, which keeps the drink cool without diluting the flavor as it melts. Overall, a solid addition to the neighborhood. Would pop in for lunch now and then.

I’ve been to this restaurant multiple times with my friends, and even my picky eater friends keep talking about this place! The Hainan chicken is our go-to dish, always flavorful and tender, they have really good balance of chicken fat and meat. (But tbh everything we tried so far were all good) I also love their egg puff and Hong Kong milk tea—absolute perfection…😭 The atmosphere is clean, cozy, and such a vibe. I’ve never revisited a restaurant this often, and it’s easily one of the top 3 Hong Kong-style spots in Boston. Highly recommend!😋😋

We had ordered office lunch today. The food was ready on time , hot and flavorful. Everything was packaged well and we were given plenty of condiments. If you are in Downtown Crossing area, this is a place for delicious Chinese food.

Located in the Corner Mall food court. Standard Chinese fare, everything is pretty great. But their Chicken and Rice soup is the absolute best. Large and small size available for those days you’re not feeling so great. A few people in our office got colds this month, and Wong’s chicken soup really seemed to help.

Run! The food is bland, with no flavor. All the different chicken dishes taste the same. There was no line, yet the server rushed my husband and me to make a choice. There were no napkins, only what came with the plastic utensils in a bag. The soda from the fountain also had no taste. What a big disappointment!

The food is great, especially the BarBQ chicken. The samples they give are super small though. One of the staff seemed in a horrible mood and you can visibly see. If they were in a better mood I'd definitely rate higher but they cheap on the samples and they seem like they don't want the job.

In Boston for a quick visit, was craving Chinese and decided to give this place a shot. What an absolute disappointment. Food is completely tasteless, overpriced (for what it is), and the place is very customer-unfriendly. But the Oscar really goes to the female Chinese cashier: the rudest, most troglodyte-type server I've ever seen behind a counter. In the 5 min I was there I witnessed her being extremely rude to 03 people, excluding me (which makes 4 ppl in 5 min, probably a record): one in person and 02 over the phone. Behaves ostensibly and shamelessly as if she is doing customers a big favor, and openly treat people as an inconvenience. Truly unbelievable. Bad food + medieval service = perfect recipe for extinction.

First of all I came here last night and they gave me the wrong order. Then the woman the phone today tries to tell me that I didn’t come in. When I’m telling her I have pictures and I still have the food in my house. Her customer service was terrible and I will never order from this trash place again. They have no decency and was super disrespectful to me by trying to call me a liar. And the food looked like it wasn’t even cooked properly. DONT GO HERE IF YOU WANT A GOOD SERVICE !

Uber eats. Food was great both times and portions sizes large. Prices reasonable compared to other similar Chinese restaurants. The shredded pork and pepper dish was spicier than I expected which I love but might be too much for some. Edit: forgot to mention I'm Chinese so my evaluation is based on Chinese taste. The spices needed for actual Chinese food costs more. Unsure if those expecting american-chinese would enjoy or not Pork ribs in brown sauce Ginger scallion chicken Fried pork with hot pepper Beef noodle soup Fragrant chicken Mongolian beef

This Chinese restaurant is a must-visit—not just for the amazing food but for the incredibly handsome waiter who served us! He was not only charming but also attentive and professional, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. The dishes were authentic and packed with flavor, and the ambiance was cozy yet elegant. Great food and great service—what more could you ask for? Highly recommend!
