Shun's Kitchen — Restaurant in Boston

Disappointed is an understatement. I came here a few years ago and remembered the food to be quite good, ordered the crispy duck ramen again and tried the mapo tofu and both were just horrible...

The mapo tofu was $16.95 and the only flavour was salt and oil. There was barely any pork and was so bland.

The crispy duck ramen ($19.95) was the one i was excited for since it was good when i had it a few years ago, but it was also terrible. The duck was crispy but very rough and dry, and clearly not fresh. The noodles were hard and soup also salty, the fish cake in the soup was spoiled and had a sour taste. When the Whole Foods ramen taste better than this it is a bad sign...

It should've been a red flag when we were the only asians in the establishment and their menu is all over the place (they have sushi, thai, chinese, cocktails..etc)

The service is also slow as there is only 1 server and the place is very dimly lit. We left still hungry and utterly disappointed for the...

Lovely neighborhood spot with truly authentic Chinese dishes! I was impressed at the quality of the food and menu. They have quite a few specialty Chinese dishes and the Chinese eggplant with garlic sauce (鱼香茄子) was really well made!

Servers are always wonderful and kind - particularly Peter. Sometimes you need to call them to get their attention but that's also the nature of a neighborhood spot - I'd rather that than have someone hovering.

Shun's is also very accommodating of nut and gluten allergies - they are able to make modifications and substitutions with no problems.

Prices are a little bit higher than what you might see in Chinatown, but still far better than what you'd find at other South End spots nearby.

This spot is always a bit empty, and would love to see it fill up!! There is also an exceptionally well-stocked bar - imagine the possibilities.

Hope you get a chance to enjoy...

Delicious Asian food with a nice lunch special where you can choose 3 different dishes with white rice and soup for under $25. We had the hot & sour soup, which to our pleasant surprise, was a Korean style soup (not Chinese) with tomato chunks and red pepper flakes, so it was very flavorful and spicy. The 3 dishes we chose were eggplant in garlic sauce, green pepper beef, and sauteed bok choy. All 3 dishes complemented each other, with the beef dish being the most spicy and robust in flavor. It was chock full of garlic, onions, and hot green peppers, and the meat was very tender. The eggplant was also very savory and palatable. With all of the stimulating flavors of the 2 aforementioned dishes, the bok choy balanced the selections nicely with a simple, almost cleansing taste relative to the 2 others. The meal was most enjoyable, and I would highly recommend the lunch special to share with 2...
