Quincy and Malden have two of the densest clusters of Asian restaurants outside Boston’s Chinatown, both on the T. This guide to Asian restaurants in Quincy and Malden lists 19 well-reviewed places, from hot pot and dim sum to Vietnamese banh mi, Hong Kong-style cafes, ramen and Nepalese momo, with addresses and phone numbers for each.
We built the list from Google Maps business profiles checked on Oct. 23, 2026, and kept places with strong ratings and a meaningful number of reviews. The order within each city is not a ranking. We left out places Google marked as closed.
