Cambridge, Boston | Fiery Beef & Rice Dishes—Absolute Flavor Bombs!

The restaurant has a nice atmosphere and is quite clean, having opened just six months ago. We arrived at 5:30 PM on a weekday, so there was no wait—we were actually the only table at the time. You could clearly hear the sizzle and toss of the wok from the kitchen 👂 The food came out fast, arriving one after another in about 15 minutes. If you see a foreigner speaking fluent Chinese, that’s [Kade]. He’s been learning Chinese for six years! When asked how he picked it up, he said, “By reading novels!”—how impressive 👍 If you’re outgoing, feel free to say hello to him 🙋 🐂 Stir-Fried Yellow Beef A must-order! So flavorful and perfect with rice—spicy enough to rate four stars 🌟. It comes with noodles that soak up all the savory sauce, just how fans of bold flavors love it! The celery on the side helps balance the heat🔥 Mix the sauce into your rice, and you’ll easily finish a whole bowl! 🐔 Sour Pickled Beans with Chicken Gizzards The sour beans are delicious and super satisfying with rice. Though not as spicy as the beef dish (about two and a half stars 🌟), pairing both over steamed rice is absolutely heavenly! The chicken gizzards are crispy and packed with texture. 🥬 Hand-Torn Cabbage Sweet and sour with just a mild kick—only one star 🌟 for spiciness. Another fantastic rice companion! Even though it’s all vegetables, it’s full of wok hei and incredibly fragrant. 🏨 Chef Zhang Cuisine & Bar—Zhang Shifu’s Stir-Fried Yellow Beef 💰 Average per person: $36 🅿️ Parking: Metered street parking nearby 📍 Address: 1105 Massachusetts Ave, Cambridge, MA 02138 #BostonLife #Boston #boston #BostonFoodReview #BostonFood #BostonWeekend #Cambridge #RiceCompanionDishes #StudyingInBoston
