My family and I typically come to the Kirby location but we decided to come here and it was cutest place we’ve seen. It has a nice light up wall and decorative tables. Food is just as delicious, fast great service, and there’s more parking here ? will be going to this one for often ?
The cashier is not friendly at all. This place states they don't have "change" so you must use a card. And don't expect them to serve your water and don't expect ponzu sauce with the dumplings. The soup dumplings are amazing! But I appreciate friendlier service so we will not return.
As a Chinese, this is the worst Chinese food I have ever

This place is an alright spot for lunch. I say ok because it's just that. It was not nasty or really good, but it was ok. It hit the spot for lunch but don't see myself going back for more. Maybe I ordered the wrong things but all in all 5 out of 10

Very rude staff, made my drink incorrectly when I didn’t ask for boba, then allegedly remakes the drink with less ingredients, and the presentation is completely different (aside from there being no boba). Not sure why I reviewed such attitude when I mentioned this was incorrect when I ordered online and the establishment clearly confirmed the order. The person working there walked off from me as I was talking. Would not recommend this place, no wonder why it’s always empty.

It’s my first time eating bao buns! So delicious and made fresh. I love how each table is decorated differently. It’s definitely a pretty unique experience.

Fast casual Chinese buns at a good price The fresh meat buns keep me coming back 5/5 perfectly soft buns with juicy filling, my tip is to order via the phone or in person, their website charges a fee Beef noodles - 3.5/5, the soup has good flavor and the meat is tender but the noodles can be a little too chewy Jasmine milk tea -4/5, average boba tea but they didn't charge extra for boba which I appreciate The inside is decorated nicely, lots of neon signs and each table has cute figurines under glass. Would come back mostly for the buns
The one server at the counter is so rude, standoffish, and aggressive. To the owner, please review your employees if you would like to have customers. I ask if there is congee, and he just waved to the menu and did not say a word. I did not see any congee and so I say “oh I guess it’s removed from the menu”. My fiancé asks if there is porridge and he again waves at the menu but now states B9. So I question, is it that this half asian, 6 foot man refuses to service women or does he needed to be prompted twice in order for him to answer customers wanting to buy things. Please review this server and very much take in consideration if you want him to work here when he clearly couldn’t care less about his job or wanting to service customers.

My only recommendation for this place is the milk tea, all of the food items we had weren’t very good. The popcorn chicken was chewy and cold, and the e braised beef noodles were too oily. Cashier was also rude.

This place is a gem in the rough. I highly recommend their roujiamo (aka "Chinese Hamburger") which is a braised pork sandwich with chives.

Simple restaurant with Big Atmosphere right in the medical center of Houston. The food is quality and very inexpensive.
