1. Appetizer Spicy Duck Slices ($12.99) from @ariesnoodleanddumpling. Looking at the picture on the takeout menu, it seems like you would get around five slices of duck breast. However, what you get is half a duck sliced on the bone sitting in a pool of chili oil and soy sauce topped with chili peppers. The duck was tasty and tender and had been rendered down perfectly. Yes, this might not be for everyone since there are tons of bones, but I don't mind. It was delicious! They now have a helpful new menu that includes pictures. 2. Cold Water Shrimp ($12.95). This is, in fact, the long-missed Swedish shrimp. I never thought that I would encounter these guys over here. The texture was off a tad, but not by much, considering that these are previously frozen. These guys are tasty! The dipping sauce was also really delicious. I would absolutely have overlooked these if it wasn't for the picture in the new menu. The waiter tried to translate where they come from, and his phone said the North Pole, and that's pretty close. The North Sea would have been more accurate. Anyone else serving these? 3. The menu said Smoked & Grilled Lamb Chops (27.99) at @ariesnoodleanddumpling. What is should have said was Lamb Ribs. They kept the meat part that is normally removed on chops that is nice and fatty. These were absolutely delicious. Served with cumin and chili.

aries has great noodles and dumplings with many flavorful dishes and choices! nice authentic chinese food with many options. the beef noodle soup is wonderful; very flavorful beef broth with light springy noodles and mild chili pepper. it was definitely my favorite. the pork dumplings are great! they have a generous amount of pork inside and nice chewy crispy skin. you definitely need to order these. the prawn with napa cabbage is also delicious with a flavorful mild seafood broth. the duck was good, but nothing special. i also got a plum juice, which was nice. they have an ordering style in which you order with your phone and the order goes directly to the kitchen. it is very efficient and i prefer it to the tradition restaurant ordering system. the food came quickly and the staff were kind. the food was delicious and there are many other options that i am interested in trying. i will definitely visit again!

This place is highly recommended by my Waltham friend. The restaurant is clean and comfortable with enough seating space. The service and the food are pretty good! Came here for their signature Lanzhou Noodle Soup. Turned out we had too many dishes that we wanted to try… ordered Aries’ Beef Offal Noodle, Spicy Duck Slices, Spicy & Numbing Pork Intestines Stir Fried Pot, Chinese Crepes, Stir Fried Beef Pancakes… for two… and the server stopped us for ordering more. The Noodle came with a large bowl, the soup was light and perfect, Spicy Stir Fried Pot and Stir Fried Pancakes were good too. The Duck and Crepes was ok. Overall, I’ll always come back!

Authentic Chinese Family Style!! Great price point, delicious food (I'm talking GOOD) and personable service. You can have most anything on the menu under $15 and each family style dish is absolutely enough for a single person. What's more is the Boba shop next store (also owned by the same person) provides an amazing dessert relief in the form of sweet drinks and crepes. The only negatives I found were the steamed dumplings were not to my preference and for a busier time more servers may be warranted. To be fair I went very early in the morning and had no issues with service 👍

Before I stopped by Aries, I'd found myself wondering why I had never tried a Chinese soup analogous to Vietnamese pho or Japanese ramen. The Lan Zhou hand-pulled noodle soup here did more than hit the spot; it comes close to spoiling me for any other soup option. The broth is clear and fragrant, like a pho, but the noodles are chewy, glutinous and satisfying. The fresh milk tea with lychee jelly was also a total hit. It's still their soft opening, so decor hasn't been fully realized, but the food and service were stellar.
