A Chinese restaurant in the northwest suburbs of Boston has closed after being in the space for nearly 15 years.
A source has confirmed to us that Little Q Hot Pot in East Arlington is no longer in operation, with a note out front indicating that it officially closed on October 28 while also hinting that there may be future plans to return elsewhere, saying to "follow up with our website if you...need information about any openings in different locations." Little Q first opened on Mass. Ave. in 2010, being an offshoot of a restaurant with the same name that once resided in the long-closed Quincy Fair Mall on Hancock Street in Quincy Center; another restaurant in Boston's Chinatown called The Q had a connection to the Quincy eatery as well, with that place remaining in operation.
The address for the now-closed Little Q Hot Pot in East Arlington was 196 Massachusetts Avenue, Arlington, MA, 02474.
