I had a fruit milk tea. The favor is from a fake tasting powder and the boba were undercooked and hard in the center. I ended up throwing most of it out!

Got the soup dumplings and a steamed pork bao bun. Neither were good and they took forever

We ordered steamed pork and cabbage and steamed chicken and cabbage they charge extra for hot chili sauce. The dough was thick and the stuffing was like a paste you couldn’t really see any meat or cabbage. It was flavorful but not memorable.

The soup dumplings were okay. These seem to be fairly popular, though they take about 15 min to prepare (which I do appreciate that they told me that upfront). But they were incredibly deflated and overcooked, which meant the soup wasn't really, well, soupy. It still tasted good, in a normal steamed dumpling with loose skin kind of way, but as a place that specializes in dumplings, I'm surprised they aren't able to cook these properly. That said, the metal tins do make it easier to eat.

Website says it's open at 10am, Assembly Food Hall website says 10:30am. Got here at 10:20am only to find out it's actually 11am.

Being from out of town, and on a schedule...this sucked. PLEASE UPDATE YOUR TIMES ON ALL WEBSITES.
Unfortunately I won't be able to enjoy your food.?. And spent 10± dollars on parking.??

I really wanted to try this place. Walked 0.3 miles from the hotel over. No line and walked up. It felt like we waited forever but it probably 5-7 minutes. Several groups got in line behind us and left after waiting too long.
One employee was making Boba and restocking items, another (I think the cook) was watching a movie on his phone and a third came back from getting ice, came out to the front looked at the line went back into the back. I get you're busy but come on at least acknowledge that we're there or tell us you'll be right with us. Don't make eye contact with us for a split second and not say anything. And why choose to restock items when there is a line? Closing time wasnt for another hour. Hopefully next time I'm in Nashville I can try it out.

Steamed boa buns were really good. Noodles and soup dumplings were neither bad nor great, although the noodles did have a lot of meat in it. Was worth the money.
