We had delicious bao bun sandwiches and a shared bun. Lots of interesting options. Easy and quick service.

I really wish I did not have to give it 1 star. I had the teriyaki chicken rice bowl. The chicken was cold and rock hard which is surprising for thigh meat. It was definitely made well in advanced and there is no telling how long it had been sitting. I’m guessing that they make certain items in advance, buffet style. Menu items are a bit overpriced but rent is high in Downtown Portsmouth so to be expected. I come here a lot but tonight was the worst yet. I usually get fried chicken dishes which need to be made fresh. So I will stick to that going forward.

Very quaint and nice restaurant. At first we didn’t see anyone in the front so we ordered at the kiosk and sat down. The food was absolutely delicious and fresh. I will definitely be back.

These bao buns are incredible. Every time we pass portsmouth we stop by to get the Fried red bean paste bun. Out of this world. Staff is super friendly and the restaurant is cute.

Fantastic spot! We went for lunch, got three buns and 1 sandwich (traditional bun, teriyaki bun, barbecue pork, and japanese curry fried chicken sandwich). Super fast service and food was hot and delicious. Definitely try the sandwiches, they're awesome! Can't wait to come back

A small unassuming restaurant that has tasty, quality food! The hot oil wontons, pork belly bun, and crab rangoon were all delicious. Perfect blend of flavors that give a respectful nod to their Asian origins while exceeding expectations for when you're looking for nostalgic Asian American food.

Food and service is 10/10! We got the Traditional and Chicken Curry stuffed buns (steamed & pan fried) and they were incredible!

The place is nice and the food is delicious, but I find it expensive.

Such a great spot and one of my favorite meals on the Seacoast! My only complaint is I wish they were open during the week - a few buns would really pick me up on a rough work day!

Baotastic! Large bao buns with some great combinations. They also offer bowls with proteins. I had the pork belly bao and sesame chicken bao. Both were delicious. Maybe the best sesame chicken the I have ever had. Worth it.

We're happy to discover this place while visiting a part of Portsmouth we were not familiar with. The rice bowls are delicious. Fresh and tasty ingredients are used. There is a big menu with many mouth-watering choices. The pork belly rice bowl was especially good. Go. You will not be disappointed.
