Peking duck, soup dumplings, noodles, and rice classics
"This charming Chinatown newcomer, run by the same folks behind nearby upscale Chinese spot Jiang Nan, is making waves for its plump, juicy Shanghainese soup dumplings — which arrive to the table in a birdcage, no less — as well as a luxurious roast duck presented in a treasure chest with different drawers filled with slices of duck alongside the other components like julienned cucumber and mung bean sprouts." - Valerie Li Stack
"A popular dumpling restaurant and recent newcomer to Boston's Chinatown." - Erika Adams
"After a brief renovation following Gourmet China House’s abrupt closure, the group behind the high-end spot Jiang Nan on Tremont Street has transformed the space into a bright and modern restaurant with a dumpling-making station, where you can watch skilled staff meticulously and swiftly folding xiao long bao, Shanghainese soup dumpling. It offers an array of classics from Shanghai and its surrounding areas, from red braised lion’s head (meatball) and sweet and sour pork spareribs to scallion noodles and shiitake mushroom chicken stew." - Erika Adams
"You can’t really go wrong with any dish you try at this large, often-packed spot that opened in late 2023 in the former Gourmet China House space in Chinatown. The Peking duck is a star, as is the crowd-pleasing bok choy with mushrooms, and the chef’s special tofu in brown sauce. Really, though, dig into your fill of soup dumplings, like crab and traditional pork. The rainbow dumplings come six to an order, with each of the hued dumplings boasting different proteins." - Nathan Tavares
"A chic new Chinese restaurant has settled into the former home of Gourmet China House in Chinatown, featuring an array of Shanghainese classics including varieties of the uber-popular soup dumplings. Put in an order for the soul-soothing treats and a server will bring them to the table in a birdcage, no less. The stylish restaurant, with its baby blue tiles, gold accents, and white wicker chairs, feels like a welcome place to stay awhile." - Erika Adams, Nathan Tavares
