Dumplings are literally frozen. No wonder they're doing discounts. Not a single asian person insight when I dined there.

All I gotta say is, this place was Simplistic and Comforting. I decided to come here on a Saturday with a friend of mine, it was freezing outside, very uncomfortable to say the least. We decided to pop our heads in here for a minute just to warm up and see what this semi-underground restaurant had to offer. We took a peek at their lunch special and decided to take a seat at a table.

The Atmosphere of the place is very quiet, soft, comforting, loft-like. Soft music playing in the background made it feel some sort of an aesthetic, which personally, was very pleasing as we needed a space to rewind a bit. Tables and Seats were very clean as well, with a lot of cutlery.

The Service was great! We were a seated by an older gentleman who was very helpful and polite in taking our order. Straightforward which made thinks a lot quicker.

The food was excellent. I don’t have any complaints for it whatsoever. Our dishes came with a choice of soup, I decided to go with the Egg Drop. The soup had some sort of texture which made it soft, creamy and delicious, honestly wanted to have one more. Then came the Pad Thai. Quite literally the perfect portion we needed just to warm up and finish our day off. The flavor and spice to it was amazing! Also had to try out their Bubble Tea, which was great as well!

To end it of, this was a VERY good restaurant. I would absolutely highly recommend this restaurant to others for a quick bite. I gotta say, their prices were also reasonable. This is a great place to sit down with a family member or two, friends and others. I would most definetly be coming back here for more! ❤️🙌

Meet lovers could easily be fooled by this BBQ Seitan & Yakisoba Noodles dish, 😲 it's all vegan, and very delicious. Omar our host and waiter always offers us great customer service, and is very accommodating.

Soup dumplings and wonton soup were just what we needed on a cold day. Very nice and quick service. Vibe is peaceful, but maybe a little too quiet—could just be that it’s a weekday during the holidays. We will be back.

Food was fairly good, but not much atmosphere here. Also, I didn't like that our entree didn't come with rice.

This place serves delicious authentic Chinese food and dim sum. It deserves to be well patronized. Today I particularly enjoyed the wonton in sesame peanut sauce.
