Do you remember those late-night trips for Chinese food after a night out at the club in college? This place brings back that exact vibe, though prices have definitely gone up since the pandemic. I recommend trying the drinks; they go down smoothly! It’s better to enjoy the atmosphere at the bar for a while and then grab a bite to eat afterwards.
If you're looking for good Chinese food, I recommend Smack Noodle just down the street. The food is delicious, portions are generous, and the staff is friendly and welcoming. Definitely check out the positive reviews there! As a side note, I just found out that this restaurant is now out of business, and I'm relieved! Here's hoping a nice Chinese restaurant opens up in Maynard Center soon.
Be sure to try the mapo tofu. The food is quite good, and there's a separate bar area if you're interested. The ambiance features Chinese red lanterns alongside American country music, making it a unique spot. I hope they succeed, so give them a shot!
The service was excellent! Regardless of the reviews. They were observant and considerate! The food was speedy and the beverages were delicious!
We got sweet and sour chicken take out. Food was excellent. Especially loved the fried rice. Very dark and flavorful. Also the place seems fun... lots of loud people in the bar area having fun.
