Went here today with my husband and sister in-law. Their food is very yummy and tasted very fresh! The steamed buns are nice and full and of course adorable! The restaurant itself is very clean. It also has really cute decorations and a beautiful mural! We will totally be back for sure!

Love the character presentation. Service was great. Agree the buns are not the most delicious but they are wonderful for Arizona. It’s extremely difficult to replicate authentic steam buns (bao) and dumplings when you are in a location that doesn’t supply the exact fresh ingredients to make them. Food is an art and this place is on point. We are an Asian family and this is one our favorite eateries!

The decorations are amazing. The food was really tasty and looked so cute. Was too bad they didnt have any demon slayer buns. The girl at the counter was very nice and very helpful. Thats refreshing.

The place was super cute! The staff greeted us at front and they were super nice. We ended up getting afternoon special (bun, dumplings, salad, and a drink for $10) I got the ground pork bun. The dumplings and bun was tasty. The salad had a nice peanut dressing that went well as a side. ALSO! They had reusable straws and boba straws too!! I thought that was pretty cool.

Visiting from San Antonio Texas. Ordered 2 Pork Buns, 1 Chorizo and 1 Spam Musubi. My eldest said the pork bun was good, youngest said the Chorizo was dry. But let me tell you the Musubi was DELICIOUS! And I don’t know what the sauce was that they sent us home with but it was/is delicious! Lots of Pop! Items to purchase as well as KPop, Dragon Ball Z and Naruto items to purchase. A bit of a wait but worth it.

Love the cute buns, they were out of char sui and chorizo, we had ground pork & teriyaki chicken- the pork was very good, the chicken was meh. The drinks were slow and not as good as other places. The service was very friendly. Also had some potstickers that were very good, the fried rice was good came with a little salad on the side. The decor is lovely, the whole place is tiny. We enjoyed it & will return & hopefully get the buns they were out of.

Today was my first experience and my fiance happened to find this place as he was googling for places to help satisfy my dumpling cravings and we found this place! Very small place but the employees were all so chipper and just overall amazing and attentive. Shout out to the staff working on the evening of 8/20/21! The food was delicious and we were lucky to have come in at the same time they were just about to bring out some fresh cha siu buns (hello kitty ones!!!). Super cute! Your service, adorable khoi wall, fun mini gift shop, and delicious food will definitely be bringing me back! And I live 2+ hours away lol

I really want to like this place because it’s unique restaurant. Unfortunately the Bao and shumai do not stand out for me. The bun is saggy and the pork chasiu was so salty. I’ve been traveling around Asia (Hongkong, Singapore, China, Indonesia) so it’s hard to compare to that. For sure, I enjoy the unique design of the bun (hello kitty) and cute decor of the restaurant.

Great place, the food was good. I liked the Pokémon buns and can’t wait to go back to try the anime buns! They had boba and it was really good.

Super friendly staff the steamed buns are always hot and very filling. The buns have cute decorations that vary in design. This company was always one i would look for at local festivals and I’m so happy they opened up near downtown Chandler.
