First time trying this place and had a terrible experience. Food is made to order and tastes ok for the price, but there are better places to get rice rolls. Here's what happened: I get to the place and there is a short line. After placing my order (I ordered beef rice roll), I move to the side (like a normal person would) to allow the person behind me to place their order. This is because when you order a rice roll, they don't hand it to you immediately, it takes about 3-5 minutes for your order to be cooked and packed up. The person behind me (call her "customer lady") goes up after me and places her order. However, she does not move to the side afterwards. She stands in front of the counter like she owns the place. When my order comes out, the cashier lady puts it on the counter. She does not call out to me to tell me that my order is ready. Instead, the customer lady, who is still standing in front of the counter, assumes that this is her order, so she takes it and finally moves to the side to where the condiments are, begins adding the condiments to her rice roll (mine initially, but now hers), and starts eating it on the counter in front of all the condiments (which is gross) despite the fact that this is clearly a takeout-only place. The cashier lady obviously sees her eating in front of the condiments, but does not say anything. Finally, when the second rice roll is ready (this was supposed to be the customer lady's order), the cashier lady calls out to me to tell me my order is ready. At the time, I assumed (incorrectly) that this was my order because I thought maybe beef takes longer to cook. I take my rice roll to the nearby park and start eating it. I then realize that this really was not my order because I can distinguish between beef and pork. The rice roll I received was not mine because the meat tasted like pork. The customer lady did in fact take my order and I got her order instead. And the cashier lady was also responsible for the mix-up. Despite not getting the meat I wanted, the texture of the rice roll was very mushy. It does not sit too well in the container because of all of the steam. I honestly think Joe's Steam Rice Rolls is way better. They're a little more expensive, but you truly get what you pay for. Joe's is not mushy when you take it to go. And Joe's rice rolls are actually better quality. I'm not blaming this place for the actions of the customer lady. However, this place is very disorganized to the point where they easily mix up customer's orders. And the quality of the food just isn't as good compared to other rice roll places. If you made it this far, thanks for reading (sorry for the long review).

Good stuff at a great price. You get your food pretty quickly too! I've always gone to the cart near Elizabeth Street, but that line moves SOOO slow. This place is a lot faster, and just as good. Got the fresh shrimp and roast pork rice rolls, and was pleased with both.

Known for made to order rice rolls with various ingredients and freshly made tofu. Great old school spot to get a cheap delicious snack in the area.
