Steam Box Rice Roll

Been searching everywhere for anything that can be comparable to the rice rolls I’ve had in Guangzhou and these are it. I drive from Queens just to eat the rice rolls from here. They’re super thin, soft, chewy, and have a fragrant rice taste. I’ve tried all the well known ones (west rice rolls king, joe’s , fu yuan, yin ji…etc) and none are as good as here. The ladies are friendly and food is made fresh to order. Recommend: pork w/ green onions and cilantro —can’t speak for the other meats since I haven’t tried them. The pork is well marinated and does not have any unpleasant odor like some of the other places I’ve tried. Cash only — but you can order for pickup from Fantuan if you forget to carry cash

My friend said she was going to take us to buy THE BEST STEAM RICE ROLLS IN NEW YORK, the same vote among her local friends in Brooklyn. So instead of waiting in the car for her to order, I decided to check it out inside. The restaurant itself is pretty clean with limited seatings (2x4=8) since it is mostly for takeouts. Not sure if they provide delivery service but it’s only a phone call away to find out. When I stood by the cashier, I peeked at the kitchen and saw two stone mills, which are used to freshly grind rice batter to make the steam rice rolls daily. So I asked the cashier to take some pictures of the stone mills for me. When I ate the rice rolls at my friend’s house, they did taste full of fresh rice flavor that you can not easily get nowadays. My friend and her family all loved them and they order them very often. If you haven’t tried it yet, give it a try, you may come to the same conclusion as my friend, her family and her friends. In my opinion, the rice rolls did taste very authentic and so far are the best I have tried in the US. Two thumbs up!

I honestly think this is the best rice roll in NYC. Way better than Manhattan Chinatown or Flushing. The rice noodles are freshly made. It’s just so silky and delicate! My favorite is shrimp rice roll, and curry fish balls rice roll. I like their tea eggs too. No indoor/outdoor seating yet. Takeout only. Cash only!

Just found out about this new gem in Bensonhurst and have gone twice already in the past week!! The steam rice rolls here are so good and great value as well. I’ve tried Hometown Rice Roll, Curry Fish Ball Rice Roll, Beef Rice Roll and Shrimp w/Salted Egg Yolk Steam rice Roll. Definitely a must try and I’d gladly get the steam rice rolls here over the Chinese bakery ones anyway.

This cozy spot serves the best steam rice rolls in Brooklyn. I have been a regular since they opened in 2020 and their menu expanded... from a large selection of rice rolls to fish balls to tea eggs. The prices are on par with Chinatown rice roll spots, but it is fresh and they give generous portions and fillings so that justifies! The staff are friendly and efficient. I would recommend ordering over the phone 15 minutes in advance so you can be in and out.

Just found this hidden gem in bensonhurst yesterday while I was at work! I watched their YouTube video and it had me sold. The menu is small and inexpensive, and the amount of steam rolls you get for the price is perfect! (chefs kiss) I got the chicken steam rolls with the cilantro, scallions, and bean sprouts. Im coming back tomorrow and will most definitely try the whole menu!

Steamed variety of goodies to choose from. Easy, simple, healthy enough. The soy sauce they give is not high in sodium which is highly appreciated. Best part is of course economically friendly compared to all the take outs I've had recently.

This is my favorite go to spot , I love how to rice rolls turned out with egg pork and corns. I still want to try something more next time ! Definitely coming back for this

I went to this store with my brother to get some changfen. It is quite close to my home. It was quiet in the morning, not many people were there. Even though inside it was not very big, the atmosphere felt nice and warm,especially in a cold,windy fall morning. I got an egg steamed rice roll with scallions and bean sprouts ,while my brother had a pork one with nothing added. The changfen were still warm when we got home,and they looked amazing! The texture was a little springy and sticky, and it tastes so good with the soy sauce.I'd recommend to add the bean sprouts ( it is free) , because they gave the changfen an extra lightness and crunch, making it flavorful and refreshing at the same time.

I was looking for breakfast in this area and learned about Steam Box on Yelp. Not sure what I was expecting but their rice rolls definitely exceeded it! I got the beef rice rolls and char siu bbq pork rice rolls, and both were solid!! The texture of their rice rolls was very on point - chewy and thin but not too soft. They gave us generous amounts of meat for both. The beef was already seasoned and better with a little touch of soy sauce. I actually preferred it without any additions, compared to the char siu one with cilantro, sprouts, egg, and scallions. Also got a chance to try their century egg and pork congee. Appreciated how the pork slices were actually lean pork and how the congee wasn't too starchy. You know this place is legit cause they have white pepper available on each table! Our yuen yeung drinks unfortunately were not good. It was like watered down milk, barely with any tea taste, let alone coffee. Still enjoyed my meal though and portions were bigger than expected. Staff were polite and food came out quick. The place is small with a few tables but all were clean. Would come back for more rice rolls if I was in the area!

BLUF: Good; 3.75 out of 5 stars. Make sure you specify add-ons, otherwise you'll receive a plain roll. I love cheung fun (腸粉) -- Cantonese-style rice noodle rolls. So I'm super happy that dedicated rice noodle roll shops have been popping up all over New York City. Steam Box Rice Roll offers decent rice rolls -- I think they rate somewhere between Fu Yuan's, which are on the thicker side; and Joe's Steam Rice Roll's, which are slightly thinner and more delicate. Joe's seems to have higher quality proteins, too. Steam Box's menu is geared towards those more culturally knowledgeable, as the menu lists the variety of rolls available with add-ons on the bottom of the page, almost as an afterthought. Without add-ons, the rice noodle rolls are rather plain. Consider getting cilantro, scallion, egg, and lettuce for most of the rolls, including beef and roast pork. The enoki mushroom and watercress add-ons are a bit too chewy to accompany the delicateness of the rice noodles.

My dad heard about this place from his friends, so we stopped by to grab some rice rolls for a quick snack. Steam Box is a small store front - there's a few small tables but everyone takes it to go for the most part. Each order is about $6, but it is pretty filling. Everything is made to order and they get pretty busy, so expect about a 10-15 minute wait. I didn't love the beef rice rolls (they were a little gamey), but the rice rolls themselves were decent. My dad agreed - they maybe needed a little oil or something because the rice rolls were a bit dry. Curry fish balls here are somewhat disappointing for $5. The fishballs had no snap to them, and the curry was watery. Cash only here.

Came here on a Monday afternoon and it was pretty open. There are a couple of tables and it's good for dine in or take out. I ordered shrimp, beef and egg rice rolls and they are not the traditional rice roll I usually eat in California. They have a different texture but they taste really good, especially the shrimp rice roll. I don't recommend getting the egg, they have less flavor and texture.

This place is for rice roll lovers! Create your own rolls. Lots of different and unusual add-ons to choose from. Salted Egg yolk? Sounds interesting. Put some of that in there! I've tried a few of the proteins, I liked cha sui (roast pork) the best. Didn't particularly like the beef. The rice noodles itself are smooth with a slight chew to it. The portion is generous. Free add-ons are cilantro, scallion and bean sprouts. Check the bottom of the menu for all the add-ons. The more different ones are: bacon, kimchi, pork liver, salted egg yolk, salted turnip, shiitake mushroom. I tried the add-on of cordyceps flower. They seem to be served whole. I found it to be too chewy. It really need to chopped up into small pieces. So far my favorite combination is protein of cha shui with add-ons of egg, watercress, cilantro, and scallion. They also have curry fishballs, marinated tea eggs, dumplings and a variety of congees. Decor. Non-descript. Very basic. A few small tables for dining in. Service was good: quick, friendly and efficient. Looking forward to coming back again and getting really creative and add on more unusual ingredients.

Very solid little stop to grab some rice rolls, congee, and various appetizers. When I stopped in, the place was empty, but we waited about 15 minutes for our food to be ready. I assume this is because some folks ordered and went to neighboring businesses to do some shopping while they waited. The food here is tasty and fresh. All rice rolls are mafe to order and it is obvious when you take your first bite. This cash only spot also offers a couple of tables in case you wish to eat there as well. I would definitely recommend stopping in and trying a little bit of everything.

We got a rice roll with shrimp and one plain along with some curry balls. The food was overall good.

This is a pretty solid place to go. I came here with a friend because we were craving rice noodles and this was the closest and was open at 8:30am. The place itself is small, and only has about 4 tables with two chairs at each one. The ordering counter was at the back of the space. She was patient and nice when we ordered. The place itself looked very clean, and there were only two other customers while we were there. We ended up ordering two shrimp rice rolls with fish balls, and a pork and watercress congee. The quality of the rice rolls was amazing. I prefer thicker noodles in general, but I loved the freshness and quality of this one! The shrimp unfortunately was very tiny, and there wasn't much. There were sections of both dishes that didn't have any shrimp in it. The fish balls were Curry flavor. We didn't particularly want Curry, we thought she had regular fish balls and she didn't correct us when we ordered. The receipt also said "fish balls" so we didn't question it. They were a bit spicy and also very small in size, but they tasted okay. The congee was pretty good. The flavor was perfect and the pork was tender and not too dry. The watercress was a bit bitter, but it wasn't too overpowering even though there was a lot. Overall, I'd probably come here again just for the rice rolls, or to try another flavor congee. Worth a try! If you go, it's CASH ONLY.

Steam Box Rice Roll has been on my radar for quite some time now, but I've always been hesitant to go in since I've read that the wait can take up to 40 mins. Thankfully, when my sister and I passed by yesterday, the place was empty, so after grabbing drinks next door, we finally tried Steam Box. The establishment itself is on the smaller side, sparsely decorated, but immaculate, with two small tables against both the left and right walls. Larger parties of 3 or 4 will have difficulty finding seating, but the tables are perfect for smaller parties of 1 to 2. Upon entering, we greeted the staff and asked if we could dine in. After getting the okay, we ordered at the counter. I ordered the Curry Fish Ball Steam Rice Roll with Green Onions for myself, while my sister ordered the Beef Steam Rice Roll with Cilantro. We could've finished there, but my sister, being the chatty person she is, asked the staff what else was popular. At that point, the heat was getting to me, and I felt like bashing a certain someone, but I reined myself in. The staff, on the other hand, was super nice and answered that the Pork and Beef Steam Rice Rolls were the most popular rolls. She also highly recommended the Char Siu Steam Rice Roll and Shrimp w/ Salted Egg Yolk Steam Rice Roll, so we got one of the Char Siu Steam Rice Rolls with Cilantro too. I also asked my sister repeatedly if she wanted an egg (because I wanted it!), but the little dummy didn't get the hint and said no... Anyhow, the service was fast and our order came out in a matter of minutes. The rice rolls were soft, chewy, and incredibly tender, almost like silk; and, while the rice rolls themselves were relatively mild in flavor, they paired perfectly with the delicious fillings and condiments. The Char Siu surprisingly ended up being my favorite rice roll, as it was the perfect combination of sweet, savory, and umami taste profiles, but the Beef came in close second. The Curry Fish Ball was slightly bland and on the lighter side, but otherwise still okay. I look forward to coming back and trying some of their other rice rolls, next time with corn and egg!

The rice rolls here are so silky! great spot for a quick bite that'll sustain you. I love adding all the sauces and getting cilantro/green onion on top.

This is my favorite rice noodle spot! Always made fresh. Service is efficient! You can always call ahead to pick up your order!

The noodles soup we tried were terrible. The soup base tasted weird, as if it went sour. The meat, both beef and pork were too dry. I don't normally leave reviews. But I'm so disappointed and angry because it was the worst noodles I have had ever! And it was overpriced!

Cash only. Rice rolls were good, but not the best I've had. Food took about 10 mins to make. I ordered 2 rice rolls! Milk tea is mid as well. There are seats inside to sit.

Really good fresh "Churn-Fun"! Tucked away in a cozy spot right next door to Vivi Bubble tea... would've have missed it completely had it not been my tea craving. Noticed a bunch of peeps waiting... decided to get a few to try. Made to order. A good selection and can add other ingredients ($). Service is kind of slow bc of the steaming process, so patience with a side of 15-20 mins is my recommendation. OR call & order ahead like we did on our next trip. They offer delivery through Grubhub... prices are inflated by at least $1 or $2... to cover the insane fees. My go-to's: beef w/ pickled veggies (shredded) + bean sprouts for crunch. Bacon & corn + cilantro. Pork & shallot + bean sprouts. My kids love the egg version. Overall a good spot for a quick brunch! When you missed breakfast and it's too early for lunch. #yelplife #enjoyfood #brooklynyelp

Came here with hubby after getting my Covid test nearby for brunch. Ordered: *Curry fishball rice rolls *Hometown rice rolls *Steambox steamed noodles with beef *Char siu rice rolls *Meat lovers rice rolls (3 meats: chicken, pork, beef) *Beef rice rolls (+ egg & lettuce) *Dumplings (8pcs) *Curry fishballs (10pcs) All rice rolls & noodles were ordered with the free toppings: scallions, cilantro and bean sprouts. The steambox steam noodles seem to be instant noodles with shrimp and veggies. It wasn't anything special. Because we order it with beef (additional $1), it had some chunks of beef pieces. The hometown ricerolls had black sesame seeds and unknown ingredients. Because we asked for all to have the freebie ingredients, it was heavy on bean sprouts and we couldn't taste the original taste. Next time, we'll order without the freebie toppings to see how it originally taste like. Curry fishballs was okay with mild flavor as the curry sauce was more like water (watered down sauce). Char siu was okay too. I still enjoy my beef ricerolls with the added lettuce & egg for that extra crunch. The meatlovers was pretty good.

Rice noodles have been my comfort food of choice since I was a wee lassie, and little has changed over the years about my love for the dish. While I used to have to travel great distances to find them, the last couple of years have seen an explosion of places to get rice noodles around the city, with the popularity of Joe's Steam Rice Roll helping fuel the city's appetite for this inexpensive and deeply satisfying dish. Around Bensonhurst's Chinatown, there's no shortage of places to get them, but Steam Box Rice Roll's menu of over 16 variations on the dish makes it hard to pass up a visit. You can get anything from a pork steam rice roll to a bacon corn steam rice roll-- my friends and I went with a curious sounding one with Italian sausage and one with shrimp and salted egg yolk. I don't consume swine, but I'm told the Italian sausage one tasted nothing like what it was named for, and the bits of protein were too small to really be able to tell. The shrimp one was a winner, full of large pieces of protein and plenty of flavor. The noodles in both dishes were incredibly fresh, and each heaping portion will only set you back about 4 bucks. They only accept cash, and dishes can take a while to prepare since each item is made to order.

I was walking around the neighborhood and saw that this was newly opened so I came to support this mom & pop shop. This shop mostly sells freshly made steamed rice rolls. There were many different kinds of steamed rice rolls & some that I have never seen (bacon & corn, salted egg yolk) or tried before. Staff was very friendly and nice & told me that there are many delicious ones to try. Since I was not that hungry, I ordered the shrimp with salted egg because it was unique. Staff told me that the shrimps they use are all fresh and not frozen. They give u small container of soy sauce & housemade chilli with oil as condiments to pour over the rice rolls. The shrimp with salted egg yolk steamed rice rolls was amazing! It surpassed my expectation. It was very tender and soft, thicker which I preferred (dislike the super thin rice rolls), super fresh and very delicious! The shrimp with salted egg went so well together & when u poured the soy sauce & chili on it, the taste was even more amazing. Super delicious and a great addition to the neighborhood! I will come back to try their other steamed rice roll soon.

Truly the best rice noodle rolls CHEUNG FUN in Bensonhurst, and I say it as a born-raised in Guangzhou Cantonese. There are different styles/types of rice noodle rolls, Cantonese style is silky thin but still a bit chewy. This place is not close by but I was willing to walk 80min total just to try. Definitely worth my trips, even though the price is on the higher side (the Joe one costs way more in Manhattan tho so...), I enjoy having good quality noodle rolls :D What to get: Any flavor besides the sesame/pickled vegetables. Remember to add the free add ons (bean sprouts, scallions, or cilantro). I also liked their more innovative ones like bacon & corn. Skip: Curry fish balls. It doesn't have curry flavors, just salty. The store: Small place, no dine in right now. You can call ahead to place order. Orders are ready pretty quickly (within 10-15mins). I've only ordered during the week so Idk how weekend would be. I'll definitely be returning whenever I can!

Always on the lookout for cheap and delicious eats! I came across this place on Yelp and decided to try it. I came in the morning and they were relatively busy. The rice rolls are made fresh so it does take some time. The workers are really friendly. The curry fish ball rice roll was really good. I wasn't a fan of the kimchi rice roll. The fish congee was tasty. Overall the food was good, but nothing really special. I think the price is good for the portion

Stopped by for a quick lunch and ordered the beef with cilantro, green onions, and egg and a shrimp rice noodle. Both came out piping hot and in good portions! The texture was spot on for the rice noodles and the sauce wasn't watered down as some of the manhattan restaurants are. The beef was, as it always is, small and ground but it didn't take away from any of the rice noodle texture. Adding the egg unto my rice noodles was pretty impressive as it was thin and still allowed for enough give on the roll that I could cut it with the side of my plastic fork. Overall just 4 stars because I have to go back and try a few more things but otherwise I did enjoy my experience and my food! I will be back!

I found this spot randomly on Yelp and told my mom about it since she loves rice rolls. She recommended we try it but when she went to go pick some up, there was a 40-minute wait. So definitely place your order ahead of time. Since there were a few of us, we each got our own but split a roll from each so that we could all try a little bit of everything. We had the meat lover, bacon and corn, curry fish balls, beef, and egg. The meat lover and the bacon corn were probably the best ones. However, all of them could have used more filling. We also got an order of the curry fish balls and dumplings. The curry fish balls needed some more curry flavor. It tasted oddly like lemongrass, more than it did curry. The dumplings were meh. They were 8 for $5.50 but the quality was more along the lines of the 10 for $1 dumplings. With so many new rice roll places popping up, I'm not sure if I'd revisit Steam Box.

Finally a rice roll place opened up in the neighborhood. The restaurant itself is clean and only does takeout at the moment. The people working there are very nice as well I went with the meat lover rice roll. The texture of the rice roll was amazing along with the meat inside. I was a bit sad that they only gave soy sauce and not hoisin, peanut butter, or sriracha. I guess the next time I go back, I'll try asking for that The curry fish balls were okay. Nothing special Based on other reviews, I went to try the tea egg but it was okay and not that special either. I only had one egg with a lot of flavor and the other two eggs, the flavor didn't penetrate inside

Passed by this place a few weeks ago and couldn't wait to try it. Came on a Saturday afternoon and they were pretty busy with orders and very honest about it. They told me that my order would probably take about 20 minutes. I'll definitely call in advance next time for pick up. I tried their shrimp rice roll, and roast pork with egg and scallion. Scallion is free to add and egg is 50cents to add. They cost a bit more than your average dim sum place but totally worth it. Their portion sizes are a bit higher than the dim sum size. Each order comes with three rolls. The texture is super smooth and very thin. Soy sauce is not watered down or too salty. Enjoyed both of the rice rolls a lot. If you're not too hungry than one order is more than enough to probably fill you up. They also offer curry fish balls and dumplings which I will be trying in the future. Will definitely be ordering from here pretty often!

Second favorite after Joe's Steamed Rice Rolls for sure - thin, slippery, good chew, and pretty generous with the filling for most rolls. You pretty much have to call ahead of time for pick up though. Went it once for a spontaneous order, but was told we'd had to wait 40 minutes for just one order of rice rolls. Whoaaaa This time, called in for 8 different rice noodles and the wait time was still 40 minutes, but at least it was planned. Small space in general but made even smaller due to covid - about two people can fit in socially distanced at once. Each steamed rice noodles without any add-ons are $4 to $4.50, with three long rolls. You will be satisfied from just one order - out of our 8 orders, 4 people altogether only managed to finish 4 plates! Favorites: - Beef: always a classic so this is just my favorite. Decent sized pieces of beef and marinated well - Bacon & corn: this was the most stuffed and flavorful (duhhh, bacon). Highly recommend this one for trying something that's different from the classic Chinese fillings Good: pork, roast pork, and chicken are next best, in this order. Can Skip: - Hometown: this is with black and white sesame seeds, salted turnip. Least favorite of the bunch. The sesame seeds make this an odd flavor and not worth trying - Chinese sausage and dried shrimp: another classic roll but nothing to rave about - Shrimp: I usually love shrimp rice rolls but this was the least packed rice roll. I think there were only 4-6 pieces of small shrimp, which in theory is generous enough, but due to the size...each bite that you take, you're eating more rice rolls than meat. Imbalance in each mouthful, so didn't enjoy as much Curry Fish Balls: not bouncy (actually a little hard in the middle), curry isn't too strong - can also skip

There are many steam rice rolls on the rise lately, but this is a good hidden gem in the Brooklyn are. I personally found good ones in flushing and Manhattan, but this definitely worth while for anyone around the Brooklyn area. I got the meat lover and shrimp with salt egg yolk and I like how fresh it was, how fast the service was as well and the silky smooth noodles made with it! Really well flavored and not too salty so you can add extra soy sauce or sirarcha. The congee is ok - wouldn't really get it again because the content to congee ratio was unproportional. Overall, very affordable and delicious rice rolls! Would come back again!

I'd rate steam box rice roll four and a half stars. I think this was the first time I've had rice rolls not from a dim sum restaurant. It was definitely the first time I've had rice rolls from a place that specializes in them, and the difference is certainly noticeable. The texture was quite interesting. It was a cross between runny egg whites and rice noodles. They were very soft and tender; it was easy to cut through them with a plastic fork. They were quite slurpable too; that probably makes more sense if you've had these before We had three different types: the hometown style, the watercress, and the curry fish ball. The fish ball order was a misunderstanding as I had meant to order the a side of curry fish balls; nevertheless it was good. My favorite of the group was the hometown style. If I return, I'd probably order with more customizations as they have a lot of options for additions. Service was pretty quick. I stepped out to pick up an item from a bakery two blocks up and the order was ready once I returned a few minutes later. The order came out to $15.75 for the three dishes.

I was very lucky to take lunch at this place three times while I was away for 4 days. Very tasty food, service, price , and again, very delicious. The most important thing is that the food is steamed and not greasy, which is definitely suitable for my diet . Definitely recommend this place

This cozy spot serves the best steam rice rolls in Brooklyn. I have been a regular since they opened in 2020 and their menu expanded... from a large selection of rice rolls to fish balls to tea eggs. The prices are on par with Chinatown rice roll spots, but it is fresh and they give generous portions and fillings so that justifies! The staff are friendly and efficient. I would recommend ordering over the phone 15 minutes in advance so you can be in and out.

Ordered pork noodles and they didn't give me soy sauce, this place known for not giving soy sauce or checking their orders! I am so pissed, guys please check your order before leaving, the staffs that work there are really careless!!!

Impressed by the silkiness of the rice rolls! The layers are thin and almost see through and the quality of the batter and ingredients makes the price more than reasonable. The serving size is also pretty large for each order. This tops all churn fun you get at dim sum restaurants even east harbor (gasps). I enjoyed the beef with added egg the most and also loved the curry fish balls.

The rice roll are freshly made. I waited around 5 minutes for the dried shrimp rice roll to cook. The service was bad. I walked in and there was nobody inside to serve. The kitchen staff saw me but did nothing. There was a guy outside talking on the phone, it turned out to he was server. He came back into the store after 5 minutes and took my order.

Had cravings for rice rolls. Seems a bit pricey for food we got. Not much fillings in each order. Take out and cash only place.

Super fresh steamed rice rolls. The go to here are the pork, shrimp, and beef. They make it on the spot and adding egg or corn would make a great breakfast or snack. During the pandemic call them up to place your order and pick up. The service is fast. Hot and delicious. Pricing is super affordable. I will be back.

New steamed rice noodle shop in the area. Shop is really small, best bet is to call in the order beforehand for pick-up. Got the Pork steam rice noodle with eggs and cilantro, tasted really good. The texture of the rice noodles were thin with the right consistency of bounce that I really enjoy. Soy sauce does play a part in adding to the deliciousness of this dish. Price is $4.5 each it's a little steeper than the average rice noodles you get on 8th Avenue. Overall, liked this little shop

We got shrimp and egg, beef and egg, pork, and corn and bacon. My absolute favorite was the shrimp and egg. I would say my least favorite was probably the beef. It was very minced and didn't have a great texture in my opinion. I definitely recommend adding egg to like all of them! It really amplified the taste and made them more filling. We were very pleased with the prices, portions, and the staff was very kind and patient. Will definitely go back!

I just moved to Brooklyn and I have been craving dim sum foods and I found this place and it did not disappoint! I thought the prices were high but then I saw the amount they give , then i said "okay fair enough." I have ordered from here plenty of times and I always get the shrimp rice rolls, beef rice rolls and my recent favorite -- curry fish ball rice rolls! It will satisfy your dim sum cravings! My go to place! They are very safe when it comes to covid-19 rules. they have tables dividing you and the kitchen/cashier and they all wear gloves and provide sanitizer. They are also very friendly and very accommodating! Must go!

Steam Box is by far one of my favorite spots for rice rolls and har gow. They take cash only, but you can also order pick up through Uber Eats. I usually get shrimp rice rolls at dim sum, but the char siu was by far my favorite. It was extremely well seasoned and pairs great with the shrimp har gow. You can add cilantro, scallions, and bean sprouts for no extra charge in any of your rice rolls, which I would highly recommend adding.

Never knew this spot existed until I had to go on a Target run! But man I already love this spot. If anyone knows Chinese food they would know how these rice rolls are amazing! Filled with whatever you please and drenched in sweet soy sauce. Literally the best breakfast anyone can ask for ! The rice roll skin is super super thin and chewy. I've never had rice roll skin this thin before! And I don't think I can go back to the normal kind ! There is a line at 10am in the morning already, which means this place is bomb! Go get the shrimp rice roll ! Super delicious and filling !

The rice noodles was too watery, and the minced meat was not fresh, possibly containing impurities. I tried it twice, but both times left me feeling unwell.

Out of all the steam rice roll places I've had, this was probably the most disappointing. My aunt picked up food from Steam Box on a Sunday and waited over 30 minutes, which is an insane amount of time to wait for rice rolls? I had the bacon corn, but tried a bunch of other rolls since others ordered different things. I would say the bacon corn and the meat lovers was the best one. The beef was woefully disappointing, there was barely any meat! We also had some curry fish balls and fried dumplings. The dumplings were definitely not fresh and made on the premises. They tasted old and like they were frozen before? The curry fish balls were also just spicy - I barely got any curry flavor. All in all, it was ok - but definitely not worth the 30+ minute wait.

A bit pricey if ordering through the delivery apps. Food is good and the only decent rice roll place offering delivery service. Had the shrimp rice roll which was really good and nicely made since the rice wrap was nice and thin.

Came across this new little shop while walking and noticed a line going to the corner of the block so decided to give it a try. Orders take longer as the rice rolls are made fresh so expect to wait no matter what :) FAVORITE: MEAT LOVERS rice roll and SHRIMP WITH SALTED EGG YOLK rice roll. The rice roll itself is so delicate and thin. Stuffing is generous. Serving is big compared to dimsum!

This place is small but clean and just oh so good. Was in the area and craving steamed rice rolls. The food here just hit the spot. Their home made sauce is *chefs kiss* Staff was super friendly and helpful which is a major plus. Will definitely stop by again when I'm in the area.

I ordered four types of rice rolls from here as well as a milk tea. The milk tea, chicken rice roll, beef rice roll and pork were great. I liked that the drink wasn't too sweet like they are at some boba places and the pork rice roll was my favorite. The person who took my order was also very professional and nice. The only reason I am giving three stars is because of the shrimp rice roll. The shrimp was not deveined so the digestive tract/intestine of the shrimp was still clearly intact. (See attached picture) I ate a few before realizing it but was so grossed out by the fact that it was not prepared properly that I couldn't bring myself to finish my meal. I will happily give this place another chance if they take proper precautions when preparing the shrimp.

The noodles themselves are very thin and a smooth consistency with an al dente texture. Steamed for just the right amount of time to give it a bite but super soft. I ordered a couple rolls which I had fresh and one that I brought into work the next day. The noodles were still good the next day after reheating with a wet paper towel in the microwave. The soy sauce isn't similar to the dim sum restaurants as it lacked that sweetness that most dim sum restaurants serve. It tasted a bit like diluted plain soy sauce so not overly salty but lacking a bit. I think with a bit more tweaks to their soy sauce and it would be a top notch rice noodle stand. The fillings themselves depended on the rolls you order. They were generous with the baby shrimps in the shrimp roll. The beef rice roll had more of a ground beef texture as opposed to the beef paste at most dim sum restaurants. The hometown rice noodle was a bit lacking in toppings, it supposedly has sesame seeds, dried baby shrimp and a pickled veggie. There were about 2-3 itty bitty pieces of the pickled veggie in the noodle itself so I'd probably skip that one next time until they figure out the ratio for the toppings in that one.

Just found out about this new gem in Bensonhurst and have gone twice already in the past week!! The steam rice rolls here are so good and great value as well. I've tried Hometown Rice Roll, Curry Fish Ball Rice Roll, Beef Rice Roll and Shrimp w/Salted Egg Yolk Steam rice Roll. Definitely a must try and I'd gladly get the steam rice rolls here over the Chinese bakery ones.
