Great Flounders, A bit Salty

I went to this restaurant as part of a group of 18 people. I'm very impressed with the service and the fish and peking duck. However, the rest of the foods were too heavy on the salts... I may (or may not)...

Gotta Love This Chinese

This place is outstanding, period. Upon walking in to Chau Chow City we were greeted by an entourage of Chinese men anxious to seat us. Having been to China, it felt Chinese authentic. The menu is...

No, No

I don't know this place got such a high rating. I expect bad service for a Chinese restaurant but this goes beyond. The dim sum is some of the worst I've had. I'm a student from AZ and even they have better...

best dimsum in Chinatown

Chau Chow City has the best dimsum in Boston's Chinatown. I was always taught that the bigger restaurants had better dimsum because of increased food turnover (thereby ensuring fresher food). The fact that...

WAY Over rated

I was very disappointed. I picked this restaurant because it was rated pretty well in citysearch to take my friend from LA. We were all disappointed. First of all, the restaurant was NASTY. Crusty dried up...

Crowded Cusine

Every friday people gather from everwhere just to experience this fine restaurant. The food is great, but you should always ask them to cook it the 'chinese way' so they won't add too much msg in it.

Dim sum within walking distance to OFC

If you work at One Financial Center, then step out the back door and take the short stroll to Chau Chow for dim sum (or check out the lunch menu, where you can find a great meal for very little cash). I also...

After hours...

It's the place that you go to for "real" Chinese food and drinks after clubbing. I know that the kitchen area isn't pleasant BUT what can you do? I mean, CCC opens until the wee hours in the morning.

Good Quality and Good Prices

I've lived in the greater Boston area for the last seven years and Chau Chow City is one of the best to be had in this area. The dim sum is the best hands down.

Worth a look

Clean, tasty and fast service. I recommend the spicy salted squid, crispy fried chicken, and any of their steamed fish dishes. Free parking after 6pm is a plus, especially in Chinatown.

MEDIOCRE AT BEST

This place is a bit pricey for dinner because it's a dim sum house. The food is somewhat fresh but the taste is ok. This place is only good after clubbing because there's nothing else open past 2AM. Other than...

Yum Yum Dim Sum

Great food. Ambiance is standard tacky Chinese fare. This place would be a gold mine if they delivered lunches to the financial district. Lunch specials are quite a bargain and wonderfully prepared.
