Wisteria House

Editorial Review

Straightforward Chinese-Taiwanese restaurant serves familiar favorites, including some of Newbury St.'s most affordable fare.

Best Taiwanese Food around, reminds me of home!

by shirleys87

They got great teas here, especially since everything is made fresh, (i.e., no frozen fruits or disgusting powders!) The food is awesome, just like a visit to Taiwan! The only thing is that the place is a bit small but it's cozy at the same time. Because it's a little small, you have to wait a little longer during rush hours but it's well worth the wait.

I recommend the crispy basil chicken and the milk tea! Oh and a really great part is that Wisteria is the only Taiwanese place with a nice outdoor patio.

• Pros: Fresh Fruit Juices/Smoothies! Yummy teas! Friendly Service, cozy atmosphere! Nice outdoor dining
• Cons: During rush hour it can take a little longer for the food, but still worth the wait!

AWesome food, slow service

by phelleesha

Wisteria house has really good chinese food, taiwan to be specific. I love their beef noodle soup, chow foon, and their weekend dishes. I'm not sure about delivery since its not their thing. But take out and dining in is great! Price is reasonable too. Its cozy and has a homey-atmosphere.

• Pros: price, food, homey atmosphere
• Cons: food takes a longtime, lighting

Terrible Delivery Service

by marnould

It took over 2 hours when we called for delivery. This is one to skip unless you enjoy your Chinese food ice cold.

Great food; Great value

by Jen_Mike

Though I've never had dinner there, Wisteria house has wonderful lunch specials. They're reasonably priced and delicious. Their hot and sour soup is excellent as well. I definitely recommend it.

• Pros: Food, Value
• Cons: Restaurant too small
