Chili Square is a small restaurant located on Hancock Street, the hub of Asian food in Quincy. There is plenty of street parking. Not a lot of tables inside, so I wouldn't recommend this place for large groups. Cash only.
I ordered two items for take-out, which took 10 minutes to prepare on an empty morning. No issues with service. Spicy Cumin Lamb Burger ($6.95): Decent amount of lamb for an appetizer. The lamb was aromatic but dry and not that spicy. The dough was also dry but held up well. I wouldn't get this again. Spicy Chicken Biang Biang Noodles ($12.95): Filling for the price but more noodles than chicken and only two pieces of vegetables, so the ratios could be better. This dish was also not that spicy. However, the chicken was flavorful and not dry like the lamb. The noodles were chewy and al dente but a bit too oily.
Overall, I wouldn't go out of my way to come back, but if you're in the area and looking for a cheaper, decently filling lunch, this place is an...
Read moreI've been meaning to go to Chili Square for a while, and finally made it on my last trip to Quincy. The restaurant is small (maybe 5 tables), and most everything is self service in front of the counter (including water, styrofoam side bowls, utensils, napkins). Cash only. Overall I enjoyed some of the things I had here, but probably wouldn't come back.
The beef noodle soup had nice flavor, The biangbiang noodles were good but not my favorite, and the chicken (bone, skin on) was quite tender with good flavor. The spicy fish fillet was huge and had a good amount of fish, but one of the fillets seemed a bit undercooked... Cucumbers cooked in the spicy broth was also an interesting choice. The chongqing chicken was coated in chili powder, which I didn't enjoy so much, and didn't have much savory flavor.
Overall I had a pleasant experience here, but there's nothing here that I wouldn't rather get at a...
Read moreThis business socially distanced customers as only one customer can be at the door ordering at a time. No customers go inside and all the workers have masks and gloves. They also supply hand sanitizer for customers who would like some. Menus are both online and on the window of the business in case you want to just stop by. Only takes around 10 minutes to get your food.
I ordered the spicy cumin lamb biang biang noodles. Noodles are fresh and made in house. If you can't handle spicy food you should order the non-spicy options. This noodle is actually spicy and very delicious. There is no option to eat inside so it will be takeout only. If you live far away the noodles will get a little stiff but if you close the box and shake the noodles around it will help the sauce that settled mix around and it feels fresh again. DEFINITELY MIX YOUR NOODLES BY SHAKING THE BOX. If you try to stir them...
