Wang's Fast Food, Winter Hill, Somerville
If you find yourself in the Winter Hill area of Somerville, consider Wang's. Wang's offers up a menu of both traditional and northern style Chinese food. Most notable and worth trying are Wang's house specialties, soups and array of dumplings--eight varieties, which can be steamed or fried. The only downside of Wang's is that it has limited indoor seating and is not open for lunch during the week.

Mandarin Chinese Restaurant
When in the mood for some mandarin-style mu shu pork or scallion pancakes, head to the Mandarin Restaurant for lunch or dinner or take advantage of the restaurant's all-day delivery service. The Mandarin Chinese Restaurant is also willing to accommodate vegetarians. Many of their dishes are available "tofu style." For example, the General Tso's chicken dish will be prepared with tofu instead of chicken, but with the same sauces and other ingredients. Because of this, Mandarin is one of the top Chinese delivery and takeout picks among Union Square locals.
