    Red bean desserts are worth a try, though place is not as appealing inside as it looks from outside. Ironically, packaged pastries are more moist and better than fresh ones, which taste dry.

    The baked pork buns were rather small and cold ( not at all like NYC Chinatown pork buns). It was a bit pricey too, considering the size of them ( 2 for 2.50). They tasted ok, though.

    Small amount of bakery in this cafe. Everything is prepackaged and overpriced. Didn't look all that fresh.

    Unfortunately the menu is very Americanized, thus the flavors are bland and muted. I won't revisit this establishment when there are so many places that have better food.

    Good deal on breakfast combos, otherwise too expensive for what it offers

    Tiny place. There was one lady there who served, and was the cashier.

    The bubble tea is only so-so. The bobas are much too soft and they don't give you many.
