This souvenir shop was highly rated so I came here based on Yelp and Google reviews and honestly, I…read morewas kinda disappointed in the selection of clothing. It was the same stuff everyone else was selling, but like less variety. However, I can say their prices were a lot lower than other shops. For example, I bought a pair of pink I Love NY pajama pants for $19.99 in size small. It was the last one. I needed a medium but they didn't have one. I ended up getting it for myself and figured I'd find a size medium in another souvenir shop. Well, I did but the same pair of PJ pants was $29.99! So I can confirm the prices at this store is cheaper (at least for PJ pants). I also ended up getting a lighter for my brother in law last minute and all the lighters by the register were just meh. I bought a lame one anyways. And then just as we left the store, they had all these other cooler lighters in the window on display. Too bad none of those were actually out on the shelves.

I love stores like this that offer a variety of random items that anyone is sure to enjoy or find something. Unfortunately I couldn't bring a lot of the ceramic plates or kitchen items home because I was worried they would break en route. However, they do offer shipping for a hefty fee. I also saw that they have a pet portraits section in the back. Sadly did not have enough time to get one but it looked so cute! I ended up buying an "F off" tote bag. Very funny and very New York. Highly recommend if you are in the area and wanting to look for a cute quirky shop to explore.

The man owner said they were busy and told me to come back tomorrow. If a business offers gift wrapping, it should be available during store hours--not only when it fits their schedule.

Nice place just to browse Chinese decors, knick knacks, clothes, snacks and condiments. I bought some nice pens and a beautiful silk scarf. Prices are reasonable.

Over all, i like this place, feels like it instantly transports me to China with out leaving NYc.

I LOVE the concept here. Every ten weeks, they showcase ten new artists. Everything is for sale. I liked some of the art, and bought two beanies for my kids. Bonus: if they don't like them, I do. They were reasonably priced and a nice thick knit. The owners, Tom and Henri, are gracious, friendly, and personable. Their enthusiasm is contagious. The artists are carefully chosen, and the pieces curated and beautifully displayed. I signed up for their email list, and hope to return.
