Always see the line-ups so I thought I’d try it. Seriously underwhelming experience. The Bao is $1 more than my go to Bao. It tasted ok but wasn’t tasty. Not sure why there is always a line up when 2 minutes away on foot you can get super duper tasty Bao for less.

Tasty food, like the Baos to be spicy. Fresh and quality ingredients.

My favorite thing was the bun itself. I got the braised beef and jerk chicken but didn’t find either flavorful.

The bao is really good! First time here and I was not disappointed at all. I had came with my boyfriend and he enjoyed as much as I did. We actually plan to go again sometime soon.

Came all the way from Montreal . Worth the price and the Bao are tasty and fresh . The girl working there was really nice and helpful !

I've been twice now and I love their chicken dumplings. I can't really have the bao there because I'm allergic to peanuts, so I can't say much about it. The dumplings are delicious, though!

Had my very first bao today and it was an eye opener... was looking for a small snack and I regret that I only bought 1 pork belly bao... It was PHENOMENAL!!!! The bun was oh so soft and the meat tender and juicy and the perfect amount of hoisen sauce and cilantro.Cannot wait to come back and try other stuff including a jerk chicken bao and shrimp and pork dumplings. Had a nice conversation with my server too who asked me if I was enjoying it.I will 100% come back here.Give this place a chance!

I love everything here. The dumplings are all EXCELLENT. Fresh, hand-made with quality ingredients. Wonderful flavors. The cold noodle salads are amazing too. The wontons are incredible. The pricing is pretty good.
