I came here for dinner at their soft opening on June 5th! I saw their advertisement on Facebook, and they were offering one free drink per person. The place is very spacious, with tables fairly far apart, and quite clean with modern furniture. I couldn't find an accessible trashcan, but they really modernized their eating experience with a QR code to order and robot that delivers your food. The plates and steam bowl is neat and stylish too. You also get your own chopsticks and plastic utensils at the corner of their ordering table. Each table comes with 3 labeled sauces: dumpling sauce, soy sauce, and chili oil. Parking is free on the street or at a nearby parking deck at the back. Everything we ate was reasonably priced; however, I did see that the siu mai was almost $8 which is a lot to be honest. The menu has a little bit of everything from wonton soup to smoothies, with not too many options for each so it allows for easy pickings.
We ordered the
- taro milk tea with crystal boba: delicious and sweet! It tasted amazing with the chewy crystal boba. I think I could've gotten 50% sugar and it still would have a good taro flavor. Also note, the boba are all one size but you can adjust the sugar, ice, and toppings on the ordering site.
- brown sugar milk tea with tapioca: this wasn't as good as my taro but had a separate brown sugar and milk flavor. It didn't feel as combined or how a brown sugar milk tea is supposed to be.
- pork soup dumplings: these were my least favorite out of the 3 dumplings we got, but it had its perks. Their soup dumplings have more soup than usual, and I love soup. I bit into one and it almost exploded. The skin is kind of loose and thicker than I have them, and the meat was loose and kind of fell apart inside.
- deep fried seafood and pork dumplings: these deep fried ones were surprisingly pretty good. They came steaming hot. They were also filled well with part/half of a shrimp and pork filling. They were crisp too.
- beef sheng jian bao (5): I am a big fan of pan fried dumplings. I love the soft yet crunchy ish bun with a good chunk of meat inside. These were my favorite out of all the dumplings we ate :3 read more
