GRANDPA CHEN CHAR SIU BAO OAKLAND GARDENS

Has been a frequent customer of Grandpa Chen in Little Neck. Was around the area and decide to give this one a visit. The Roasted Pork Bun is amazing as usual, I also buy the pineapple, york, and the matcha flavor. My wife like the york and matcha more, me personally like all of them except the matcha one. Brought two bag worth of buns home to enjoy it on the comfy sofa at home (and for my wife). I missed the deal by one day, apparently it ended on Sunday, but the store owner recognized me and gave me a small discount. Lol I guess I really do go a lot. Can't say much about the atmosphere (lighting is bright I guess), certainly can't compare it to high end restaurants, but good enough for what it's doing. Anyway, wish you 生意興隆, and thanks for the discount!

Just went to Grandpa Chen and everything was phenomenal. The roast pork bun was delicious, and the pineapple bun with roast pork was an absolute standout—soft, sweet, and savory all at once. Paired it with a perfectly sweet milk tea, which tied it all together. The space was clean and the atmosphere very welcoming. Parking in the back made it AMAZING. My daughter absolutely loved the egg tart—flaky, creamy, and not overly sweet. Definitely a 5-star spot. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

BEST CHAR SIU BAO IN TOWN! OMG! THE SWEET AND SAVORY FLAOVR ! Every bun is filled with generous amount of filling ! Bought them almost everyday on BOGO. THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH FOR DOING THIS BOGO! Appreciate the generous 8 days that you did this ! WILL COME BACK!

Grandpa Chen and everything was exceptional. The roast pork bun had a soft, finely textured crumb with a juicy, well-seasoned filling that wasn’t greasy. The pineapple bun with roast pork was the standout—pillowy bread topped with a delicate, crackly, buttery crust that melted into the bun, perfectly balancing sweetness with a savory, umami-rich filling. The coffee was smooth and well-balanced, a great companion to the pastries without overpowering them. The space was spotless and the atmosphere warm and welcoming. Parking in the back made pickup easy, and I grabbed a few dozens of buns to bring home for the family and extra for work tomorrow. Will be coming back!

The bun do taste not fully cooked. I know they want to have the softness texture but at least get the temperature / timing right. Not everyone like to eat not fully cooked dough. On the other hand their 雞仔餅... Holy moly hard like a rock. Cant even get one bite off. Get ready for dentist appt if you want to finish it all. Not everything is bad, I do like the black sesame cookie.
