I think that any Chinese or Chinese-American in Boston would give you the same recommendation. I was just there for dim sum with a bunch of Asian- American friends, (including other Chinese-Americans besides myself), and we were all very happy. I've also been there for dinner -- yummy! It's a big room, with what I think of as Hong Kong decor -- big golden dragons on the wall at the head of the room, a little glitzy, big bar when you walk in. Quite presentable. Good luck! - Flo Chien
