Review based on initial visit for lunch. Ordered off the lunch special menu — General Tso’s chicken with hot and sour soup, steamed rice. Lunch is served with a pot of hot tea. Food was well prepared, tasty and good portion size. The hot and sour soup was really spicy — I like it; but some might opt for the (no red pepper) egg drop or won ton soup. I never order fried rice on a first visit — try the steamed rice: if this is of decent quality and well prepared, the restaurant’s food is likely to get a 4 or better rating. Physically handicapped accessible from parking lot — ramp at side entrance. Street entrance has a step. I’ve tried several Chinese restaurants in Worcester and this is the best one so far, and the only one offering a range of Szechuan dishes. 12/16/24 - raising my food rating to a 5. For Worcester, best Szechuan I have had in the city.

I love Mala. This is one of the only places in Worcester where you can order Mala dishes. We got the dry beef hot pot and the Mala pot without fish. Both had very nice spice, I could honestly handle more spicy but my fiancé would probably faint from it. The dry pot was more on the sweeter side, but it still tastes good. Together, the food cost about $50 dollars for both of us, without tip--however, we had two trays worth of leftovers to bring home! The service was sufficient. The staff were friendly, polite, attentive, and sent our food out in a timely manner. The ambiance is very straightforward. It's not just a quick pickup spot where you can pick up the greasy, fried Chinese food, but it's an actual place you can sit down and taste some authentic Chinese dishes. The decor is not the best, but it's very comfortable and casual. We would definitely return with our friends!

The food was middling at best. It was edible. Somewhat palatable. I've had WAY better at hole in the wall places. There are tables, but not proper table service. The workers were nice enough, though. The tables were clean, but the rug in the dining area was DISGUSTING.

Great food at a great price. My wife and I ate here today for lunch. They have lunch specials which run $10 to $12 and is served daily 11 to 3pm. With the lunch you get a choice of appetizer, rice (white, brown or pork fried rice) and your main meal. The portions are generous. The service is fast and overall a great lunch. I ordered a lo mein dish not on the lunch special. It was delicious. We will absolutely be back

Note to myself for the next time. I normally come here for the crab rangoon and chicken terriyaki but today i was dissapointed. Im already not happy about spending $11 for 4 pieces of chicken terriyaki but they were super skimpy today and barely had any meat on them. They were more like what you would get at a run down buffet, versus and over priced, nicer restaurant. They had about half the amount of meat on each of them compared to what they usually give. Also, idk if they over cooked the crab rangoon or if they were old or they changed the wraps and the filling they usually use but they simply werent good. The crab rangoon are usually yellow and light, today they were dark and had some white stuff on it and the wrap seemed a lot thicker. They just werent good. The staff is nice though. Im kind of glad though that I was dissapointed with the food today bc I wont be craving it again and tempted to come back.

The food and the service was amazing! I ordered a small Hot & Sour Soup along with some sushi and General Tso’s Chicken and although the chicken was quite hard it was flavorful. The sushi was delicious and service was amazing! She was very kind and respectful! Definitely coming back! I also recommend trying the (Pork Belly Bun) it was so delicious! It tasted like a Fresh Roll but better.

The food was delicious. The Orange Beef had a strong orange flavor and a good balance of sweetness to spiciness. The egg rolls were the best we have had in years. Sesame Chicken and Spicy Broccoli were good. Their portions were generous. I ordered online for pickup and made an error, so the order had an extra dish. When I called to find out what happened, the lady was patient and helpful. She texted me an image of the order list to confirm the order. We will order from them again.

My fave place to get Chinese food in Worcester!! My go-to dish is the chicken with garlic sauce. Loads of fresh veggies and chicken :) They also never skimp on the crab rangoons!!

First time at this restaurant went there for lunch. The pork fried rice was amazing! I ordered mixed vegetables with beef, I think they relied on the sauce to carry the dish but the sauce was mediocre. Cost $13, portion was okay Came with fried chicken wings as an appetizer which were pretty good Staff was friendly and efficient Overall do not think I would eat there again

This place has really dramatically (and sadly) fallen off in the past year. While the dining room is gorgeous, something nefarious has been happening in that kitchen. The past three meals I've had with my family have been awful. I took my Father out for his birthday in July. Absolutely none of the three dishes we ordered had any spice, and two of them were missing items listed on the menu. We ended up sending back two of the dishes, but it could have honestly been all three. Takeout orders have been abysmal—twice now, they've forgotten items that we ordered and paid for, causing us to double-back, which in turn results in cold food. The General Gao's in particular has been incredibly mushy and lacking in spice lately, and today, I'm finding carrots in our Hot & Sour Soup. Is anyone checking these dishes? It seems like the kitchen has all but given up on maintaining their previously high-standard of quality. All while their menu prices rise, of course. Did another business poach their chefs in the past year? If so, please let me know so I can give them my business instead. All our past love for this establishment is gone.

Let me tell you about Yume Dumplings! They were delicious, fast, and friendly! A nice spot to sit down and enjoy a nice hot Thai tea. These aren’t actual portions as I kept forgetting to take pictures from being too excited to try the food first.

This place was great! Stopped in before a show at The Palladium and will definitely be back. The Japanese style fries were SO GOOD! I'm not 100% sure what's on them, but they are addicting. The soup dumplings and Siu Mai were also excellent and tasted fresh. The tiramisu latte was really good as well.

Got into town very late on a Sunday evening and we were heading to another restaurant, that place stopped serving dinner at 6 and boy are we glad they did!! We walked down the street a smidge and found this little gem. We walked in 15 minutes before closing, they gladly seated us, after we told them we would take our order to go, then didn't skimp on presentation or taste! We ordered the standard ole spicy tuna roll (just in case - we've eaten LOTS of not so great sushi!) and Shrewsbury Roll as well as the Spicy Tuna Tostada Pizza appetizer. The Shrewsbury was very good but the Spicy Tuna Tostada Pizza blew it out of the water!! It was the best "sushi" we have ever eaten, hands down! Thanks again for the great service and great food!

What a great find in Worcester, ma! The food was fresh and delicious, and the presentation was top-notch! The service is excellent. The waitress was so lovely, quick, and very attentive. And I like the vibe of this place! Definitely coming back!

Simply amazing dumplings! We got the veggie dumplings - tried the fried and steamed ones. They came with three sauces - soy, hot sauce, and a sweet chutney. This restaurant is located in a large space with several other eateries. Seems fairly new and there was plenty of seating. Public restrooms are here as well.

**MoMo Palace in the Worcester Market** My wife and I had an amazing meal at MoMo Palace! We ordered the chicken thukpa and the tornado fries, and I absolutely fell in love with the food. It was bursting with flavors—savory, sweet, and spicy. The chicken thukpa was absolutely outstanding, and the tornado fries offered an interesting spin on traditional fries. This place is a must-visit!

We've been to literally every Chinese restaurant in the area. Some of them multiple times (before we discovered Tikki Tikki). Now Tikki Tikki is they only Chinese restaurant we'll even consider. Their prices are reasonable, the food is outstandingly delicious (and I don't hand out compliments unless they're warranted), the portions are huge, and the staff is always friendly. No one else even comes close.

I'd never been here until yesterday but I'm glad I gave it a go. The food was very tasty and the portion sizes were quite large considering what I paid. Also, this restaurant has done the MOST of any I've seen in the covid19 preparedness department.. they are truly contactless which def makes me feel safer.

This has been me and my boyfriends go to Chinese Restaurant lately. We live nearby and they always deliver fast. The food tastes good and the prices are low.

Great food I've been eating here for 20 years now and I don't even live in the area anymore and I still come back to buy food from here. Great prices too and great quality.

My corona was passed the best by date… and they just didn’t even bring me a new one? I had to get up to ask if I could grab a different one. She said “no corona” and I asked if they were all bad… she said yes. They didn’t charge me for the expired one but I was kinda expecting them to give me a beer on the house considering I drank nearly half an expired beer before I saw the date… first time going had coworkers suggest it multiple times. Don’t think I’ll go back

My wife and I just came back from Yummy Garden and the food was very, very good. Started off with a pot of Hot Tea and the wife had a Mai Tai. I had Hot & Sour Soup and for apps we had Peking Ravioli ( Potsticker ) Pan Fried and an order of Chicken Fingers each of the apps were cooked to perfection. The entrees were Shrimp and Lobster Sauce ( Brown Lobster Sauce ) I asked for it to be served over a bed of Pan Fried Noodles and they had no problem accommodating that request and my wife had the Chicken Lo Mein. Each were cooked perfectly and we had plenty to take home with us. The restaurant itself could use some updating but is nice and clean with attentive waitstaff.

Waitress was very kind, food was delicious. Best sushi I have ever had by far. Atmosphere is very nice and calm. I highly recommend the Dragon Breath Roll and Tiger Eye Roll.

Food: They have ACYE hot pot style, with many fresh vegatables & protien selction. We choose the Tom-Yom & Super Mala broth which were decent, it could use more depth and seasoning to enhance the overall experience. The super mala wasn't as spicy as I thought and the Tom Yom just didnt have that bold, herbal flavors. Adding extra seasonings like a little extra spice or herbs or even better peppers could enhance better flavors. They do have a sauce section where you can grab it yourself and add to your brooth or use it as dipping. The selection of protein with a few premium is avaliable is solid, but the taste in quality just did not meet my expecatation as it was a bit tough. All the vegatables were fresh, and seafood was well prepared which I enjoyed. I also had thier noodles & crab rangoons for take-out which was rather dry, so perhaps take out wouldn't be my thing to do here. I gave this place another chance, and it is better than the last time. Overall, its a solid option to go to satisfy the craving during the colde season. Service: The service was fine, most staff tend to mind thier business and will arrive when you need something. Most of this is a help yourself kind of thing when it comes to cooking your own food or getting your own sauces. I believe they can be more attentive when needed. Ambiance: It recently just featured moremodern decor with touches of traditional elements that reflect its hot pot theme. The space is designed for communal dining, with large tables that encourage sharing and socializing. Warm lighting and vibrant colors create an inviting environment, making it a great spot for gatherings, Location accommodation: They have a parking right to the right of the resturant but you can park in the TD bank lot and walk right over.
