New dope spot on the east side. Glad to have a dumpling shop convenient to downtown! I had read about this place and happened to walk by it. Since I had already had lunch, I decided to checkout their dessert dumplings. They had two choices, PB&J and Apple pie. You can also add ice cream but I just wanted to try the dumplings. I went with the PB&J and didn’t disappoint but be careful, it’s hot! I saved a couple for later and I actually liked it more cold! I’m looking forward to trying the savory ones, especially the pastrami which people rave about. This is a fun spot for a whimsical lunch or snack.

Eating here as I type. Lovely vibe. Good music. Staff is out here in the eating area and seem really sociable. Edamame is charred really nicely and the chicken and pork/cabbage potstickers in broth are amazing. Priced comparably to most other places around here. Will definitely come back.

Such a good time! Drove over an hour to come check it out. Had outstanding recommendations from Alex and great personable customer service! I would recommend the Mac and cheese dumplings, chicken teriyaki, I didn’t try the soup but we wanted to try it out!!!

Ok you guys!!!! This place was pretty cool. You walk in and there's no humans, lol. There's a menu above, ordering kiosks on the right and a fridge to grab your own drink when you're done ordering and paying. Behind the wall of drawers are the humans working on your made fresh order. Don't forget to grab your ticket from the kiosk! It upsets the humans if you dare knock on their tiny window! With the ticket you'll be able to get your food from the drawers in the wall. Otherwise a grumpy, unfriendly human will bring it to your table. It's a fun experience, food is delicious! Humans suck, at least the one we got this day. Check it out!!!! I loved it!

Self service automat style of service. Order on a kiosk and scan your receipt to open the proper bin with your food. Dumplings were great. Rice was good - add the provided chili oil. Fries were super tasty, hot and crispy.

I loved this spot on E. 6th St. They have a very meet system going on. You get there and you have to order your food on a kiosk, you don’t have to speak to anyone, and it’s super easy to order. The menu has pictures and is very easy to understand what is available to the customer. You receive a text when your food is ready and you have to scan a QR code to this wall of cells where the food is placed ready for pick up and it’s super neat. The most futuristic dumpling shop I’ve ever been to, loved it!

I had been wanting to knock this off my bucket list ever since I heard of it just to check it out plus it's open late so I was super happy about that. Overall the food's very fried so that's my opinion so if you like fried food you're definitely going to like it It didn't taste terrible I definitely thought it was pretty good everybody there was super friendly and professional and restrooms were very clean overall it definitely was a good experience.

This is such a cool little place! My best friend and I parked at the little bar by the windows and watched all the people go by outside. We tried the Philly cheesesteak, the chicken Parmesan, and the Thai curry ones, along with their yummy salads. They were all amazing! After we tried the deserts with ice cream and the apple pie were simply heaven. We walked out very full and planning our next visit.
