Place definitely needs to be updated as far as benches blinds were so dusty lo mein was delicious n flavorful service was great too

Ming Du is one of those restaurants you walk in and just feel comfortable. The owner is very friendly with an infectious smile. The staff are all extremely friendly. Plenty of parking. Seats are comfortable, decor gives it that old school feeling. We started with the hot and sour soup. They do a great job with this. You can tell they put their heart into this. It has those complex flavors created by vinegar, whine and white pepper to give it a perfect kick. Absolutely delicious! The PuPu platter had a strong showing. The beef teriyaki was marinated perfectly and very tender. The fingers and shrimp were breaded perfectly with a nice crunch while the protein wasn't overcooked. Crab rangoons were creamy with a slight hint of sweetness. They were really good. Wings were really good right out of the kitchen. Overall the appetizers were really good! Thier pork fried rice (I get it without onions) was spot on, very good! Orange crispy beef will make you want to come back for more. To truly enjoy any crispy dish I always suggest eating in. This was great! Kung Pao chicken was cooked just right. Absolutely delicious! This a great place for Chinese food. Their prices are lower than most of the places I go. The also offer small and large sizes on a lot of their items including entrées. And they have a great selection of combo's! Check the out!

Best service & best food! Love ❤️❣️💕 their vegetarian general tso chicken!! Great service & everything came out so quick!

This is a review for the VEGETARIAN food. To start, I arrived at lunch time, parking was a hassle, somewhat busy but I was attended to within 10 minutes. I ordered a vegetable roll which came out fairly quickly. Absolutely full of oil, I took one bite and a spoonful full of oil dropped out of it. I couldn’t even finish it very bad. I ordered vegetarian garlic chicken and white rice. The veggies were crunchy and fresh, the sauce was more like a brown sauce and the soy based chicken was disgusting. The veg chicken was more like a thin tofu skin which was dry and chewy - not like a typical soy based mock meat. This is more like a tofu skin that was over cooked. Worst of all, my expectation was high as I turned and witnessed a few people order meat and get their orders first. This made me assume I would be receiving fresh mock meat but that was not the case. Overall, I will not return unless I order a veggie based dish without the mock meat. It seems that their meat dishes are popular, I would steer away from the mock meat chicken if you order a vegetarian dish. The service was good, the server was friendly and made suggestions. The environment was busy but a nice aesthetic. Prices are more than reasonable. I hope your experience is better than mine if you visit :)

I came with my family during weekends. The buns and fried tofu were delicious and tasty. All of us love it. A good place, very chill and friendly. This is a hidden gem in Hoboken

My wife and I recently visited South Lions Dim Sum & Tea, and it was a fantastic experience! The food was absolutely delicious and authentic. We loved the variety of dim sum options, all served fresh and hot. The steamed dumplings were perfect, and the Portuguese egg tarts were a sweet and delightful treat. The service was efficient and friendly, and we appreciated how clean and cozy the place felt. Everything we tried was excellent. We will definitely be coming back to try more dishes! This restaurant is now one of our favorites, and we can’t wait to come back again! If you’re in Hoboken and looking for a great place to enjoy dim sum with your loved ones, this is the spot to go.

We consider Spring Garden a take-out restaurant. There are a few tables but no table service (very small space). It's certainly not "5 star dining" but we've never had any issues and we think it's a good value for the money. I especially like the pan fried or steamed dumplings. Nice people. Our last time there they gave us a complimentary quart of egg drop soup. The photos included are General Tso's Chicken, Small Beef w/ broccoli, Fried Dumplings, one egg roll, one spring roll and egg drop soup.

Am beyond impressed with the quality and quality of the food for the price. Tasted fresh! Excellent service as well and very polite staff. Very prompt service as well, was in and out in no time at all.

My extended family and I had the opportunity to dine at this restaurant after attending a funeral. We were pleasantly surprised by their ability to accommodate our large group, providing us with a separate room for our gathering. To enhance our dining experience, we decided to order our meals family style, allowing us to share and savor a variety of dishes together. The restaurant offers decent Chinese cuisine, which satisfied our taste buds. However, I must mention that I am unable to give a full 5-star rating because we did not have the chance to try their sushi yet. I believe that experiencing their sushi would have added another layer of enjoyment to our meal. Nonetheless, I appreciate the restaurant's efforts in catering to our needs during this challenging time.

Koi Chinese Cuisine and Lounge is a great Chinese and Japanese restaurant. The restaurant is extremely clean. The staff are very friendly and helpful. It's a modern upscale casual restaurant with lower than market pricing. It is decorated with Asian decor adding to the ambiance. I had the pleasure of talking to the owner. He cares so much about his food that he brought a consultant in to taste his dishes to help bring them up a notch. They have a delicious hot and sour soup to start your meal. Their PuPu platter is really solid, the beef teriyaki being the highlight. They do the old school circle style shrimp. The shrimp coating had a nice crunch without drying out the shrimp on the inside. The chicken fingers were cooked perfectly. Crab rangoons were delicious. I am usually more of a celery fan on my egg rolls, however theirs had a really nice flavor, I really enjoyed it. Wings had a perfect crisp and were very juicy. I enjoyed these more with a little duck sauce. Both the spareribs with and without the bone were extremely tender. I suggested a little more charring. They were very good though. I had pork fried rice without onions (personal preference), this was very solid. I really liked it. The shrimp with lobster sauce was one of the best I've had. It wasn't salty or sweet, just perfect flavors. Shrimp tasted fresh and had a nice texture. Kung Pao chicken was delicious. Had a little kick that sneaks up. Orange beef was really tender with a delicious sauce. I was extremely happy with my meal. They also offer a bunch of lunch and dinner specials. I think that you will see some of the items I had elevated as they grow to improve. I have eaten at all of the Chinese food places in the immediate area of Koi and without changing a thing I believe this is the best option. Check them out! They also offer Mai Tai's (delicious) and Scorpion Bowls to go!!

We’ve dined here several times and absolutely love it. The food is so good and my partner says it’s the best kung pao he’s had in the area. We enjoy the peanut noodles and other chicken dishes as well.

Normally, the food is excellent. However, we ordered the whole Peking Duck for $69, and all we received was a mix of a reheated shredded thigh and skin mixture. We couldn't find any breast meat. See the picture. Having just returned from having had amazing Peking Duck in Singapore, this was a huge disappointment. There, and at Jiangnan in Boston, they bring the whole duck and carve it at your table. We do not believe we received a whole duck. When we complained, they said it was served differently. In the past, at this restaurant, the duck was served with large pieces of breast meat topped with crispy skin. But not this time. The skin and meat were fatty and salty. Note, we were at the restaurant early at 4. One previous time, we arrived early and also did not seem to receive a whole duck. It seems like early arrivers get shredded duck from the previous day. This said, everything else we had was excellent. My grandsons loved the teriyaki beef sticks, pot stickers, house fried rice, and the always superb jumbo shrimp in spicy Shanghai sauce. If we have the duck here again, we will ask to have the whole duck brought to our table where we will carve it ourselves.

The best Asian food in the area. The service is always excellent, and the food is consistently delicious with a great variety to choose from. I highly recommend giving this lovely place a try.

Upscale but casual Chinese and Japanese restaurant located on route 16 in Wellesley at the Newton line. The staff is friendly and the decor is welcoming. I had oolong tea to drink. The presentation was pretty cool. They have a pretty extensive menu. I had items from the Chinese side for this visit. I started with the hot and sour soup. This was dark with a nice rich flavor that left a little kick on your lips. Plenty of fillers like golden needle, wood ear mushrooms, mushrooms, tofu and a few others. It tasted like they finish it with sesame oil and Chinese basil. The baby back ribs are the smaller ones, however these are perfect. They have a thin crisp around them with a juicy, tender and flavorful layer of meat that is absolutely delicious. One of the things that sets Jin's aside is the offer soup dumplings. These have a nice ball of pork and spices as well as soup inside the dumplings. I really love these. The last item I had was the prawns with minced beef and lobster sauce. This is a very old school of making this dish. The flavors were delicious and the shrimp were cooked perfectly. Overall had a great experience here. I very much recommend their food!

This place has it all: Great food, great service, and even parking! It’s very hard finding authentic Chinese food in Newton, but this place offers all the classic Chinese dishes. I’ve tried just about all of their appetizers- not a single dish I did not like. Portion sizes are great as well, so you can share with friends and family. Such a cozy environment I highly recommend! Ps. Don’t forget to crack open the fortune cookies😉

Came with a coworker for a going away party. Incredibly friendly staff!! Bartender is funny and drinks are solid. Food was great and fresh tasting. Host Lily sat us right away and was quick to recommend her favorite dishes to try.

Was in total shock. We ordered food to be delivered. At the time it wasn't a good time in my home. When I got shocked was the delivery driver looked at the receipt and looked at me and said you no give tip? Like really? You just asked for your tip? You see people are upset and you have the balls to ask for a tip. I won't ever order from there again.

As others have said this location is definitely under new management and it is for the worse, you can pretty much disregard any reviews from under the previous owners older than at least March of 2025. Phone orders now seem to go through a call center with customer service agents that aren't even familiar with the menu, I got tired of waiting for the woman I got to take her third pause to still not figure out what a D15 was and just hung up and went to make my order in person. The food will likely vary with what you get but from my experience has taken a drastic hit in quality. The fried rice was bland and pale as if it had never even seen heat of an actual stove, the crab rangoon was practically just pure cream cheese, the boneless spareribs which would usually be very well cooked with a good char were limp and soggy and the sad excuse for an eggroll (usually my favorite) at first just seemed far smaller and soggier but after taking a bite doesn't even have the same fillings. In all honesty the quality was closer to what you'd expect from the frozen food section of Walmart than from even take out Chinese.

I enjoy their lunch takeout a lot. A friend from work and I have their lunch takeout out specials frequently and highly enjoy them. The sesame chicken is so tasty. Large portions and friendly staff always keep us coming back. I recommend having lunch or dinner here for sure.

We're on the hunt for a local hotpot spot so we don't have to trek all the way to Boston, and we found this place with some 🔥🔥🔥 food! The quality of the meat and seafood is on point, and they have a great menu selection that caters to everyone's taste. 🤤😋 To top it all off, the bill came to half of what we usually pay! #LocalEats #HotpotHeaven #FoodieParadise

Love this place. Food options is similar to the other local joints. The owners are friendly and the food servings are massive. I got all this for less than $6, the soda adds $1.25, so less than $8. 10/10 would recommend. I get white rice, rice noodle and orange chicken 10/10

I came by on Saturday and they had no food and the little bit they had was disgusting. They had 8 empty trays and the only food out was honey chicken and the sides. I got the lo mein and it tasted like boiled noodles. The honey chicken I had to spit out. They were clearly under cooking because they had no food. He had the audacity to scream at me “what you want” 3 times, as if there wasn’t only 2 dishes available. Golden scoop is across the street. The food and service and cleaning is way nicer. I’ve been getting dollar scoop for my entire life and they just can’t make decent food anymore. The other locations are still good, but this is my second time coming and it was absolutely depressing. We used to get this catered for celebrations and now the food is indelible.

Wok n Tok is a great place for good, late-night, Asian fare. I’ve been before and find the prices to be fair for the portion size, too. The service for my order was friendly and I was grateful to not have to do fast food after arriving in town from an evening flight. I definitely recommend for take-out!

I had dinner here yesterday. Their food is top notch. My favorite dish is the Singapore Rice Noodles. I had never had it before and it was recommended to me by the owner. If you like curry, noodles, and Chinese food. Go here! I promise it is not only delicious, but the one plate you order will feed you and two other people. It is the most food I have ever seen in a single plate. It is filled with delicious chicken, shrimp, and pork. You must try it. You will not be disappointed.
