Billy Tse Restaurant, 240 Commercial St, Boston, MA 4.5/5
If anyone is looking for a great spot to grab Chinese food in Boston they need not look any further than Billy Tse at 240 Commercial St. It is ironic that one can find such great Chinese food in the North End but once you taste the food you’ll soon forget you are in an area more known for pizzas and pastas than it is for egg rolls and rice noodles.
We arrived at Billy’s around 6:45 on Saturday night and were welcomed in with great hospitality and service. About 10 – 15 minutes after arriving at the restaurant we were seated, with drinks, and with food—this was quite an accomplishment especially on a Saturday night.
The prices for Billy’s are quite fair—around $8-9 for noodle plates and $11-13 for those with meat--and considering the large portions one could even consider them a bargain. We tried the Kung Pao Chicken which was extremely fresh and accompanied by crisp vegetables. The sesame chicken was also great and delivered a very sweet option to contrast with the spicy Kung Pao.
The service is friendly and attentive and as mentioned above fast. Its location—smack dab on Boston’s waterfront—is a very scenic one but unfortunately we weren’t able to take advantage of the surroundings this past Saturday because of the flooding rain and early March temperature.
If one is longing for a new destination on their Boston Chinese food map than they should circle Billy Tse as their next stop.
