Dumpling Palace

Solid. We ordered the soup dumplings, bitter melon, noodle soup, and beef pancake rolls. Food was all pretty good, no major issues. Of course it wasn’t the best of the best but everything was very decent if not a little pricey. (Although inflation is insane right now) Service was also good, the waiters were quite patient with my older parents. I usually wouldn’t write a review but thought it might help others since there are so many negative reviews. Just to add one more experience into the ether.

Its my go to place when I wanted fried rice. I usually order yang chow fried rice and oyster pancake. Pros: food is good. price is average. Cons: The younger waitress is rude and usually moody (toxic) so we prefer the other waitress. We went in once when it was winter. She "Ordered" us in Mandarin to sit at the corner by the doorway bc we were 2 people and other tables were set up for parties but there wasn't anyone there.. I told her we don't want that corner seat, ignored her and sat at our usual spot. She even told us to speak in her language. I do speak her language but I dont want to. I disregarded her. I hate that when Chinese see another Asian person and start to scold at you in their language thinking they are slick and can have their way with you. Then they stick there nose into your business while asking bordering boundary questions that makes you extremely uncomfortable like "why wear your hair this way?". Even if I do or don't speak their language it shouldn't matter.. I would still speak English bc some people tend to erase respect in there comfort language and get aggressive crossing the line. Then they look at you and start to know that they should respect you keep your distance with them. [I feel sometimes you need to put people in their place to let them know how you ought to be treated. Unfortunately in Boston there are quite a few more places that erase the line that you set. So you have to go through all the way showing them the consequences when people show toxicity or a consistency of disrespect.] #2 They open late after 3pm. But I dont think it was advertised online. So sometimes we went there and get disappointed when its closed.

The food was average until we found a COCKROACH and what looks like a WORM underneath our soup dumpling… they offered to take the soup dumpling off the bill (but nothing else) and asked if I want to box up the rest of my food (Hell no). …

They also took a really long time to bring the check, so I had to sit there thinking about the cockroach… would definitely not come back unless they get a proper health inspection displayed.
