I wondered why I keep coming back here when the food itself isn’t particularly noteworthy—and I realized it’s the seating and airy lighting. Most fast-food spots in this part of Midtown don’t have great seating, but this place does. The booths offer privacy, and the open tables work well for groups. The lighting feels open and breathable, making it a comfortable spot to sit and take a break.

Their congee is decent, and the hot tea is a nice touch. Service...
Got the brand sampler. A meal for $19.60.
Here’s what I thought of each item
Har gow / shrimp siu mai - 3/5, hard to get wrong, just didn’t love it, even with the soy sauce.
Chicken siu mai - 5/5, was my favorite
Sticky rice wrap - 1/5, mushroom and sticky rice was not my favorite
BBQ pork bun - 1/5, wasn’t my thing
Crispy shrimp roll - 4/5, pretty good
I can not emphasize just how good this place is. My wife and I make an excuse to go here biweekly and it always hits the spot.

It’s also pretty affordable considering there’s really not a whole lot of places in midtown where you can get a meal for two for 30 bucks. Please never close.
