What a cute little bakery! I came here by chance after an event at the bookstore on the corner, and I'm really glad I did. Other bakeries are pretty chaotic, loud, and intimidating. This one is very chill and calm. The auntie at the counter patiently takes your order, I can't say that for all Chinatown bakeries! I got a green onion bun, a bo-lo bao (called a pineapple bun, because it looks like a pineapple), a cha siu bolo bao, a ham and cheese bao. All were really light and fluffy. My favorite was the cha siu bolo bao! But, also the mango mochi, that were on the counter, those were really really good and my family finished those in minutes. Highly recommend making the trip down Wavery to find i-Cafe!

Hire more workers. Waited fifteen minutes just to order and the heating up takes another 10. Or stagger the line to give preference for here orders to get started

I know I am always giving five stars. It’s because I am thrilled when I visit places I have been reading about for ages. And when I finally get to have a coconut crème bao again after months, and it just makes me so happy. This place is funny. They are known for Chinese-style tamales. I did not have that. I had the egg tart and bao. Yummy. There was not a place to sit in the place on Sunday morning so I did the next best thing- stood outside the cafe and ate it. ☺️ again perhaps if I lived close to a Chinese bakery I would not be so joyful about my bao but I was and continue to be delighted. It was the perfect bite of chewiness and sweet without being cloying. I don’t know how they do it and I don’t want to know I will just say “take my money” and enjoy. The pastries here are top notch. Check it out for yourself.

Lovely Chinese bakery open pretty early. I get different things almost every time I go but their BBQ pork bun is very good. Cheapest bakery open around 9am in chinatown I think but still somewhat expensive.

Nice place to get a treat and have warm asian veggie tamales - my wife also got a ice tea we love to try more things
It is a quintessential Chinese bakery situated in the heart of Chinatown. They offer table seating for a dine-in experience. We recently sampled their BBQ P.Bun, paper cake, big dumplings (zhong zi), and custard tart, and found them to be quite delicious! The experience met with Mama's approval. The customer service was excellent, and speaking Cantonese proved to be an added advantage. Additionally, they maintain a clean restroom facility exclusively for customers.

We got red bean pancakes and an egg tart. They were amazing. The egg tart had an amazing texture with flaky crust and the red bean pancake was nice and chewy.
