    Food is flavorless. They charge downtown Boston prices for food that is not worth eating. My wife bought the salmon which was burnt, he side veggies were steamed from frozen and complete mush. I got the stir fry but just no flavor whatsoever. The only things that were good were the cocktails. I would not recommend going to this place unless you only want to drink.

    We were there last night and although the service was good and everyone was nice the food was a bit disappointing. We liked this place before and decided to go back. The drinks and Tuna Tartar were excellent. The Lollipop Lamb Chops were way over cooked, we asked for medium rare and got over done instead, the sides were a mess and not what described on menu, the only good thing was the sautéed spinach. The Pan Seared Scallops were good but again the sides were a mess and not what described on menu, the sautéed asparagus had not tops, the best part of asparagus was missing. The server was so nice and offer us dessert for free and we got the Flan and Tiramisu`Cake with Vietnamese Coffe and a Bayles. All dessert really good. We were told that a change in Chefs Stuff was coming next week, we really hope so! Those entrees were not quality food at all!!!

    The food was good but originally they did overcook the steak tips. They took them back and remade them - the desserts were nothing like in the picture like when we asked for flan it was broken up instead of one piece - the sorbet was pictured inside of a pineapple husk and we got it inside of an orange husk like straight out of Costco - ordered a chocolate cake and got vanilla (grant you the cake was free because it was a birthday celebration so that was nice) waitress was a nice old lady but she kind of awkwardly huddled around us a few times trying to engage in conversation that didn’t quite land. The food itself tasted amazing but not so amazing as to be worth the price that I paid.

    The food was disgusting period. It shouldn’t be called Lychee Bistro, it should be called Lemons because every dish had the same microwave lemon taste.

    Disappointed after hearing people recommend this restaurant. The fat on the pork belly was not rendered …could not eat. Lamb chops came out rare and returned for more cooking which appeared to have been done in a microwave. The sea bass was overly peppered. The eggplant and dumpling appetizers were very good. Will not be returning.

    Service was really bad but I'm sure they will straighten up more in time as they get better staff and more training. Very unfortunate that our bad experience was during a mother's day brunch.

    Attended the Mother’s Day Brunch. Food took over an hour and half to arrive and each dish arrived over 20 minutes apart. They ran out of eggs and food did not taste as good. I recommend lowering the price unless they’re a better chef. Drinks were very good.

    Lychee Bistro has quickly become our most favorite go-to restaurant and local hangout spot with a great selection of quality and curated dishes (You must try the lamb chops, hot stoned steak Pho, pork belly steam buns, corn ribs, lollipop chicken wings, lemongrass mussels), delicious cocktails (I highly recommend the ‘Lychee’), beers and other alcoholic drinks. Their weekend brunch menu is wonderful (My favorites are the crab cake egg benedict, Stuffed Mascarpone French Toast). The restaurant is well designed and always spotless which are huge contributed factors to their great ambiance and wonder atmosphere. The owners, bartenders and their staffs are knowledgeable, super friendly, always gracious and fun to be around. Lychee has never disappointed and we’ve always had such wonderful time there.

    Great variety of Asian fusion to fit any appetite. From more traditional baus and dumplings to tuna tar tar tacos and kimchi fries. Mains also have a good variety to choose from. The signature cocktails are tasty along with some nice local beers on tap. Staff and owners are very nice snd accommodating. Look out for their specials too like $1 oyster nights.

    This restaurant is one of the best things to come to the south shore! It is true Asian fusion and every single item that I ordered was absolutely delicious! The owners took special care to bring a hip city vibe to the suburbs and the flavors of all the foods are nothing short of amazing! The owners are also very kind and welcoming and engage with guests. I highly recommend this restaurant the next time you’re in the area!

    Delicious apps! Great to share to try lots of different flavors. Drinks were great! Prices were high. Noise level got very loud when a big party came into the lounge area. We requested the main dining room where I think it would have been quieter. Staff was very attentive and friendly. Definitely would recommend to friends!

    The food was really delicious, very flavorful, and with decent portions. The drinks were really good. I recommend The Luscious Lychee. Our waiter appeared to be new in his role and was forgetful at times. Even with that, I really enjoyed myself. It has a nice vibe to it and I would go back again.

    Food was yummy and the server was great. However, way overpriced. They serve $16 cocktails!! For a place in Braintree, not Boston, this is ridiculous. No wonder it was dead empty on a Friday night. Wont be returning

    Four of us sat in the main dining room and enjoyed an evening of wonderful small plates, which we shared. The staff provided impeccable service. Scallops, cello noodles with veggies, rice, ribs, dumplings, all were delectable and we would order them again. The bar staff are well-equipped and know how to mix a top-notch old fashioned. The big surprise is that Lychee has their own dessert specialist and the house-made chocolate cake was the best we’ve eaten in any restaurant. We highly recommend this excellent spot.
