Every dish is made BY HAND! Amazing food quality. This place fed me when almost everything else around was closed. Excellent service.

Came here for the first time on a Saturday afternoon. And ordering was very easy since you do it through a QR code but you can also ask for a menu and order that way as well. Food came within 10 to 15 minutes and everything was very hot and fresh. The meat pies were really hot and filled with yummy juices. The scallion pancakes were very very yummy. I highly recommend getting the cucumbers. Service was decent but don't be expecting conversations from these ladies. They bring you your food and that's about it. I can't wait to come back and the prices are so worth it.

The food here is undeniably good — nearly every item we tried was delicious and well-prepared. However, the service really left a lot to be desired. The staff came across as cold and unwelcoming, and their attitude made us feel uncomfortable, like we weren’t welcome there at all. It’s disappointing, especially in 2025, to still experience service like this. A great restaurant should have both quality food and respectful customer service. Because of the unpleasant attitude and the way we were looked at — almost like we didn’t belong — I wouldn’t dine in again. I might consider ordering takeout in the future just for the food, but the in-person experience didn’t merit even a minimal tip. Hopefully the staff can work on being more hospitable, because the kitchen is clearly doing a great job.

There were bugs on the buns. You can imagine how bad their hygiene is. Their attitude is not good. When I walked in today, no waiter came to greet me. They were all looking at their phones and eating at the table. The break time was not written on Google Maps and Apple Maps. As a result, I had to wait for a long time for the order I ordered in advance. The waiter saw me and had a bad attitude. she said he didn’t see it because he was on break. Wasn’t it a reservation? I didn’t say anything. In the end, I waited for a long time and got the meal. I saw bugs on the buns. I was really disgusted. I thought my colleague recommended it to me, so I wanted to try it. Reply to merchant review:
Shouldn't the first thing you say when a customer walks in be that you're currently closed during your break? Neither Google Maps nor Apple Maps lists your break hours, and when I entered, your open sign was displayed. Furthermore, the service attitude was unimaginably poor. I hope everyone sees this review. Regarding the refund, I can only say it's reasonable. Shouldn't customers be entitled to a refund if they receive items infested with bugs? Moreover, I never demanded compensation or a replacement order from you.

It's really good, with great color and reasonable prices. There's a wide selection of dishes at reasonable prices, so if you're looking for a quick bite and don't want to cook, I highly recommend this restaurant. I was quite full with just one bowl of noodles.

Expect the good food and the traditional rude Chinese staff. They are meaner if you don't speak Mandarin, but it's close to home and a good pie.

The dumplings and buns here are absolutely delicious
Very kind and friendly staff! Everything was freshly made to order, juicy, and very flavorful. This was also very affordable. The scallion oil noodles, and beef/cilantro dumplings were our standouts but we loves everything we ordered.
We would love to revisit someday when we travel back to this area!

Great hole in the wall where everything is made to order. Mini fried dumplings and mini wonton soup are great. Only 6 small tables. Good for breakfast

My go to place for handmade Chinese pies. Love the spicy tofu salad, cucumber salad, fries pork bao, and pork pies! Very sweet little restaurant where you can see the Asian aunties making the food from scratch. Easy street parking in the area.
