天津包店

This is a no-frills, hole in the wall takeout spot where you can get a whole combination rice platter and a soup for under $10. The place is called Carol’s Bun, but don’t let the name fool you because they actually sell a variety of traditional Cantonese style dishes for a great value. We got a box of tomato and eggs, pork belly, and a radish tripe beef combination over rice. For their $9 lunch combo, you can choose either rice w/ 3 items or noodles w/ 2 items. The dishes rotate daily, and this is a great place to eat at if you want a variety of food for a low price. The food is fresh, hot, quick, and will for sure leave you with a full stomach!

What an absolute hidden gem. It's been tough finding reasonably priced takeouts of anythig since the pandemic, and Carol's Bun is refreshingly reasonable with prices. Their food is full of wok hei! Their frozen dumplings (for cooking them at home) are awesome and I loved my 乾炒牛河. They even included a bun for my order whcih I'm so appreciative of 💕 If you want an authentic Chinese / Cantonese takeout joint, this is it. Feels just like home!

I'll definitely come back again when I am in this part of town. The service was super quick. The 2 employees are just there to work and get you in and out. Only about 3-4 people can fit inside the restaurant to order. There are 2 wooden tables outside of the restaurant where you can eat. The food is definitely authentic Chinese food. I thought that this place was a bakery because of its name, but no it's not. There is buffet style food where you can pick out what you want. You pick 3 items over rice, but I didn't do that. I got 'too good to go' from the app and the meal I got was chicken with scrambled eggs and tomato over white rice. Congee with chicken and preserved eggs also came with my meal. It was tasty and I want to go back to try some of their other foods.

Heard many good things about this place. food was very good specially the cantonese style blue crab for $18 had to come back and get another box for midnight snack.

Delicious lunch box express 👍👍 For $9.00 you get 3 cuisine selections over rice. It’s a very simple & flavorful meal. The food is freshest during lunch hours as it comes out from the kitchen and is kept warm over steamed containers. It’s a good variety that will satisfy any palate. Ranging from chicken, beef, pork, shrimp, fish, and wonderful vegetables. I really like the curry chicken with 2 sides of veggies. The cooking reminds me a bit of grandmas. 🙏🏻 11/16/25. $9 lunch box is now 10 bucks
