Loved the dim sim here. Everything was so delicious. We had a nice table in the corner which was great because we had a baby and a stroller. I liked that it’s a small place and not a super loud bustling one

Chicken and mushroom bao was good and fluffy. Plant-based potstickers were ok. Cucumber salad is on the sweet side, very refreshing. Drinks were good, 3 out of 3 bangers.
