It's tough to distinguish yourself as a Chinese restaurant in Boston's Chinatown, but New Jumbo Seafood – renamed after a 2006 ownership change – has managed to garner a fine reputation, since opening in 1996, by storing and serving some of the freshest seafood in the neighborhood, most of which can be found floating in live tanks near the restaurant's entrance. They specialize in Hong Kong cuisine here – you'll notice the Hong Kong mural that covers one wall – and, since it's open late at night, this is a favorite after-work stop for local chefs. The fried salted calamari is a good place to start, with its light and crisp breading. The steamed oysters with black bean sauce is a great appetizer for those who love the flavor of the tangy, salty bean sauce against the creamy, briny oysters. For entrées, it's hard to go wrong when you can see your future dinner swimming in front of you. Steamed or fried, Jumbo's whole fish selections are invariably tender, fresh and expertly cooked, and the variety of choices is truly unique.  Beef, pork and chicken are all given a fair shake at Jumbo, as well. Try shredded beef with tangy mustard pickles, or indulgent Peking-style pork chops. Sautéed pea pods or Chinese broccoli will lift your palate, and tasting dinners will let you try a little bit of everything. Named Best Chinese Restaurant of 2007 by Boston magazine. Beer and wine available. Serving lunch, dinner and late-night daily.
