This bakery pumps out the goodness. They have sweets, savorys, and everything in between. The bacon egg bun lookes awesome and the customers keep coming back. This time I grabbed an iced coffe on a hot hot chicago day.
Swing by the south loop if you need a new (authentic) asian bakery.
Mmmmmmmmmmmm!

Just stopped by to grab a snack before a class, and these pastries are simply yummy! Unique and creative. Drinks were delicious too!

I’ve been here a few times and I’ve had more negative experiences with the customer service than positive ones. The ube lemonade was very sour and didn’t have much ube flavor so I asked for more sweetener but the barista didn’t seem too happy to add more. Another time, I brought my small dog in (totally understand if pets aren’t allowed) and was told to leave, but I wish they had let me know at the door rather than after I’d already purchased a few things and sat down. Just a bit off overall, I don’t think I’ll be returning.

We're visiting from New York State, and when we read some recent reviews about unfriendly service, we were immediately intrigued. Would this bakery present genuine competition for our own disgruntled customer service at home? But no, the service was helpful and friendly, and offered some recommendations for unfamiliar parties. Delicious! Black sesame mochi bun. Ube bean mochi bun. Matcha crispy top mochi bun. Great selection.

The pastries are decent but the staff are quite rude and ignore you when you try to speak to them, had to ask several staff members multiple times to even use the bathroom

I had a very uncomfortable experience at this bakery today. While trying to put the bread into the small plastic bag they provided, it accidentally fell to the floor. I immediately apologized to the staff, but the employee told me I still needed to pay for it. Although he wasn’t rude, he sounded disappointed.
What made it worse was that this happened in front of many other customers, which made me feel extremely embarrassed. I understand taking responsibility, but I really wish the situation had been handled with more empathy and discretion. It’s also worth mentioning that the plastic bags they use are quite small and not very practical.
This experience left a bad impression and made me hesitant to return. I hope the store can improve both their packaging and their customer service approach.

I basically come every week. Never meet a cashier was giving me any attitude. I was shocked because I asked for if possible to use the restroom when I was checking out. I understand it’s end of the day, everyone is tired but don’t give me a look like this.

The breads here are delicious. Reminds me of Taiwan. I usually get an oat milk latte with my breakfast, and it’s a great balance.

The sweets we got were so good. I just wouldn’t personally get the coffee again.

A hidden gem on a bustling road! The store offers a cozy, comfortable environment that feels like a perfect escape. They have a wide variety of beans, and the taste is absolutely amazing. Highly recommended!

A disgrace to the Taiwanese community :( As a Taiwanese American I am incredibly disappointed and concerned at the horrendous service here. Today an Asian American individual with black hair and blonde tips provided the rudest service I have encountered in a long time. I have come several times before the renovation and the gentlemen at the front were always friendly and welcoming. Truly a sad place now. Manager, there are some people you need to let go. Your business is suffering because of it. I see many reviews echoing similar experiences. I will not be returning.

Really nice place!! This bakery offers a lot of delicious pastries/breads and coffee. Ideal for a date, or even for working remotely, everything is great and feel cosy.
