Boston Cantonese Restaurant | Yayuan This BU cafeteria is really good

🍗 Victoria Seafood Restaurant: Boston’s Underrated Cantonese Gem—Worth the Hype Lived in Boston for 4 years, walked past it hundreds of times, and finally caved to the buzz. As a Cantonese food lover? It’s a winner—I’m already planning a return. 🌟 Standout Dishes Feng Sha Chicken ($17.95): 🐔 Crispy, garlicky perfection. Half a chicken, fried to a golden crunch, topped with a mountain of fried garlic and tiny green chilies. The flavor is mild—garlic-forward with a whisper of heat. The drumsticks are juicy and tender; the breast, while slightly drier (inevitable with fried chicken), still tastes great. Generous portion, perfect for sharing. Mala Tofu ($15.95): 🍮 A pleasant surprise. Not the spicy Sichuan version—this is Cantonese-style: large chunks of fried egg tofu in a thick, savory sauce, mixed with peas, mushrooms, shrimp, and scallops. It’s rich, umami-packed, and ideal over rice. Comfort food at its best. ✨ Little Extras Complimentary Dessert: After paying, we got a small bowl of coconut taro sago soup—creamy, sweet, and the perfect light finish to a savory meal. 📍 Why It Works Vibe: Casual, no-fuss Cantonese spot—focused on flavor, not frills. Value: Affordable for the portions, especially for Cantonese seafood in Boston. Tip: Better with a group—so you can try more dishes (I’m eyeing their seafood next time). Victoria Seafood is a solid find—no wonder the buzz. It’s the kind of reliable, tasty Cantonese spot that keeps you coming back. 📍 Victoria Seafood Restaurant 1029 Commonwealth Ave, Boston, MA 02215 #BostonCantonese #HiddenGems #ComfortFood
