    String beans, fish and general tso with lo mein
    Sally W.

    It's the one and only Chinese bakery near my apartment. Thank goodness for that. I moved from Chinatown to Jackson Heights. I need the occasional Chinese food that is not from a American Chinese place, ick. I need to a place to buy Chinese baos so thank goodness there is Max Bakery by the 7 train as I get off! I need the occasional hot dog bun, ham and egg bun, or Custard/Pineapple bun. They even have the pick "4 choices with soup" for $5 buffet that I am accustomed to in Chinatown. The ham and egg and chicken buns are very tasty here. The staff is very patient to explain what everything is. The bun variety is small but as far as taste goes, Max Bakery is much better than the bakeries by the Roosevelt Avenue subway station. It's too bad that Max Bakery doesn't sell baked roast pork buns or any steamed buns. I hope they expand their inventory to include these items one day. I have no where to buy steamed roast pork buns or steamed chicken buns near me. Sad face. The buffet food has been consistently delicious and fresh. I just wish they had more variety. It's almost all chicken. Kinda boring. choices. They just put up sneeze guards in front of the buffet. I just tried their chicken sandwich which is ground chicken meat that is seasoned and cooked into long patty. It is delicious! I can't wait to go back! Their strongest product is the ham and egg bun and the chicken sandwich. YUM.

    Coconut Cream Bun.

    Really solid tasting Pineapple buns with a flavorful and nicely crumbly streusel on top. The dough has a nice texture with a slight buttery flavor too. I also bought a coconut cream bun which wasn't as good with the dough being a bit overcooked and dense and the cream was a bit bland.

    The storefront on 90th street between Roosevelt and 37th avenue! (It is a bit hidden!)

    As stated before, I finally came back to try the savory foods from Tea Cup Cafe!…read more Starting off, my fiancé ordered the Crispy Fish. The sauce that was served was absolutely delicious with the signature tanginess and sweetness of Thai food. The hot pot that I ordered was also enjoyed to the fullest! The food here was super good but also I love liver so I was glad they had a hot pot option that included that! After a delicious meal, we finished off with the mango bingsu which also was a huge hit! The bingsu was super fluffy and light! This meal was definitely worth it and didn't leave me feeling super heavy. The service was also great even though they were always full house with some parties waiting and only one person serving. I will be back next time to try their Thai barbecue which I saw people having and I could stop looking at! On top of all this, the server or manager even gave me a free Melona ice cream which I paired with the bingsoo after he saw that I was pregnant which I thought was super sweet. I don't live too far from here so I also want to add that even though I have not added a review, I always go to this restaurant to grab a coconut Thai milk tea to go (I am not even a huge Thai tea fan)! For some reason, I love the coconut thai tea from here and always find myself craving it.

The atmosphere is indeed cozy with quaint outdoor seating as well. Unfortunately, I gave their iced matcha latte two tries, on two separate days. Sadly, their version of an iced matcha latte is watery and lacks the matcha flavor, despite being green. It just tastes like milk. It takes a lot of flavored syrup to make this drink taste better, and syrupy drinks aren't good. The first time I had it, I was surprised to be chewing on ginger pieces that were floating in the bottom of my drink. Luckily, I like ginger and, more importantly, I'm not allergic. I passed it off as maybe their unique twist on a matcha latte. When I went back for a second try, I asked them to not put ginger in the drink, to which I was told ginger should have never been in the drink and the whisk they used was likely not fully cleaned from a drink that contains ginger. Uhh, gross! And not a good practice for a restaurant serving the public. I forgave the first mistake and ordered another iced matcha latte with lavender. I get back to my family's house, take a sip, and notice they omitted the lavender. Had to walk back to get it corrected. The young lady taking orders was very apologetic and swift in correcting it. However, her colleague wearing a bandana on her hair was not as kind and seemed to be irritated at my kind request it be fixed. Both of my experiences have been off putting and I simply will not be back! Thank goodness the neighborhood has alternatives like Over The Moon and Qahwah Valley. Espresso 77 would benefit from improved quality of their products, cleanliness, and customer service.

This place is a vibe -- warm, buzzy, effortlessly cool, the kind of spot where you sink into your seat and suddenly two hours have vanished and you're totally okay with it.

Bright, fizzy, refreshing, perfectly balanced -- not a drop too sweet -- and gone way too fast because we couldn't stop sipping. And the espresso martini... stop what you're doing. Rich, silky, with a real coffee punch and that gorgeous cloud of foam on top. Easily one of the best I've ever had. These people don't make drinks, they make magic. And the service? Off the charts. The staff were warm, attentive, genuinely passionate, and treated us like regulars from the second we walked in. Not one detail missed -- from the first hello to the last glorious sip.
