“Typhoon is one of my favorite restaurants in the Boston area because of it's mix of good pan-Asian food, ambience and service.”
“They have some really interesting cocktails, including one that comes in a coconut shell (very good).”
“After a little bit, we knew the rude guy's friend had a special request, "which could take a little more time to prepare his dish", explained the poor waiter.”
“was quite disastrous, we decided to order another bottle of our first bottle of wine but it was unavailable as was our second, third and fourth choices so we stayed on water.”
“Also, it is completely not a good place for little kids - very cramped and tough to fit a high chair in there (the second time I was there I had my 15 month old neice with me).”
“But his friend, the rude and loud dude, got upset instead, yelling and cursing at the frustrated waiter and his manager.”
“good food, okay prices (pickup, not dine-in)”
“Having to ask for your drink order four times over forty five minutes is annoying at the least but might be forgivable on a busy night - what can't be excused is forgetting to submit a fellow diner's order, trying to cover it up with an obvious lie and on”View Less
They don't even value their customers. They don't even value their customers, that they setup a stupid groupon discount to trick their customers. The Groupon discount said to be buy $45 to get up to $94 value, but the limited you to have only one Starter, two entries, one desert for two people. I mean this is for two people, one starter, one desert? Of course not enough, right? So you started to order something else thinking that you have up to $94 value to spend. But turning out that you are trapped in the ridiculous rule and end up paying a total amount (Groupon Price + Difference) that is more than the $94 value. I'm sick of company like this to make you feel stupid of honoring your purchase.…
Horrible Service, Below Average Fod, Just BAD, BAD, BAD. Went there for a birthday for a friend. We asked specifically for a vegetarian dish, they brough a dish with a fish sauce. When asked if we could exchange it for a vegetarian dish, the waitress refused and said she would have to charge us. We had to talk the manager. Moreover, the food was bland and uninspiring. But the next thing the waitress did, really pissed us off. We told the waitress it was our friend's birthday and if she could brink a small cake with candle. She said ofcourse. We ordered dessert of ourse as well and waited and waited but no birthday came ever came for our friend, while another party next to us got a birthday cake for their friend. After the dinner was over we asked the waitress what happened, she had the audacity to tell us that she got "busy". Why would she lie to us and tell she could do it? At least have the common courtesy to come back and tell us that she cant honor our request, instead of being misleading. We will definitely not be coming back here.…
Yikes.
This is the first restaurant I've ever been moved to write about because it was SO TERRIBLE!!!! My boyfriend and I, who are frequent restaurant goers, were in the mood for good sushi, and decided to
go to this establishment as we had been there one time previously for an appetizer and a drink. We ordered two rolls, eel and cucumber and the "typhoon" roll (salmon, tuna, yellowtail, and sweet egg), and the sashimi deluxe dinner. The service was very good, but when the meal arrived, we were surprised by the arrangement, the color of the fish, and the preparation of all items. First off, all of the sashimi had a grayish hue, typically indicative of old or frozen fish. Then, the taste and texture were disgusting...chewy, bland, and all of the pieces looked like they had been cut by a dull butter knife, with outer layers of skin left on. To make the experience even more appetizing, was the martini glass full of seaweed salad stuck to the sashimi plate by an enormous glob of wasabi. The "typhoon roll" was missing the yellowtail, the rice was hard, and the eel roll looked like it had been created by a first grader. But our favorite point of the service, was the apparently drunk sushi chef intermittently smoking cigarettes in front of the restaurant, in full view of all paying customers.
Expensive, gross, and visually unappealing. We will never return.…
Good Sushi, Great Location.
Great sushi, Very nice interior(has a wall sized water fall/trickle.
I recommend the yam roll(dont remember what it was called) it is warm and a little crunchy. VERY GOOD.
A little bit dressy, anything but a t-shirt is fine though.
Nice waiters always at hand to refill your water.
Great Value.…
This is a Great spot!. I moved to Boston for almost a year and I felt in love with this Typhoon for its sushi and its cozzy atmosphere. I've been dining around to experience other sushi places, but nothing out there convinced me to keep coming back, but Typhoon. Very attentive service, food come out fast, great wine list (they offer all wines by the glass and bottles which is great for everyday dining out), exotic drinks from the bar are unique too. I heard Typhoon has been there for over 10 years and has been improving and improving... that's the only way to stay in business. Unlike some places I've been to, same old same old, and sometimes they just shut down and disappeared, like Typhoon's Korean neighbor, Jae's or 711 Underground Sushi, whatever,.. they just disappeared.…
