This was a great disappointment. For many years we have been eating in the original Hang Tai in Franklin. The food was always good, served hot and consistent. Tonight we discovered that it has permanently closed so tried the Medway location instead. I think they closed the wrong one!

Thank you Tommy and the rest of the Hang Tai staff for your amazing...

Now, I'm glad we tried them. We've have take out once a month for the last year and have not gotten a bad one yet. We only get the typical - pu pu platter and fried rice,...
