This isn’t your General Tso’s Chicken. Sumiao Hunan Kitchen blends the spicy traditions of Hunanese cuisine with the spirit of innovation that abounds in Kendall Square to create a truly unique dining experience. Sumiao means “sketch” in Mandarin, and the team here isn’t afraid to color outside the lines. Tradition meets invention in both the kitchen and the dining room, with a soulful menu executed in state-of-the-art fashion and presented in a lighthearted, convivial atmosphere.

Hunan is a region in southern China known for bold flavors and lots of heat, and the menu at Sumiao brings plenty of both. It’s divided into familiar sections, with Soup, Tapas & Appetizers, Meat & Fish, and Vegetable & Sizzling all broken down into more adventurous options like Chicken & Frog and Pork Flavored Veggie. You’ll see a few recognizable hits mixed in with Hunanese items that might take a little explaining, but sharing is always encouraged, so don’t be afraid to go out on a limb. And like any good Chinese joint, Sumiao offers takeout, so they’ve got you covered even if you’re stuck at home or need to take lunch at your desk.

Bright blues and big windows characterize the space, adorned with a traditionally vibrant Hunanese color palate and modern chic. Fun, funky lights solidify the techy aesthetic, with draping translucent fabrics and contemporary lines offset by setpiece Chinese artwork. The multicolored tables and chairs remind diners to have a little fun while navigating their chopsticks, and a roaring fireplace keeps things cozy through the cold months.

If you can’t find a seat near the fire, stay warm with Sumiao’s wide selection of Chinese tea. They’ve got it by the cup or pot, along with a selection of craft mocktails for fellow teetotalers. Traditionalists will love the long sake list (with helpful descriptions if you’re new to the game), and baijiu (traditional Chinese spirits) for the stout of heart. The bar is well-equipped for all the rest of your imbibing needs, with a full list of creative cocktails, an approachable wine list, and beers from around the globe.

Sumiao boasts a colorful seasonal patio for all your post-work, warm evening needs, as well as private event spaces with full A/V capabilities so you can pork fried rice during the Power Point.
