We’ve eaten here several times and decided to treat our friends to their first time. We all enjoyed the dishes we shared and the chef was happy to scale back the heat for one of us. Having said that, I do prefer the tofu with longhorn peppers to the milder classic tofu dish my friend ordered. I love the heat and the unique food offered at Yunnan Kitchen.

Mumbai Spice is one of our favorite restaurants in Boston. The food is delicious and the waitstaff are very helpful with descriptions and recommendations. We usually order the Indian dishes but have tried a few of the Thai dishes and they are excellent.
