The restaurant offers a cozy atmosphere with friendly staff and delicious food, though some customers have noted small portion sizes and overpricing. The pork belly and braised beef baos are highly recommended, while the three cup chicken bao received mixed reviews. The service was outstanding, with staff going above and beyond to make customers feel welcome. The limited seating makes takeout a popular option. Overall, the restaurant has received positive feedback for its flavors and quality of food, with some minor issues to consider such as portion sizes and pricing.
