Golden Steamer's Mott Street shop is a tight space that draws a steady crowd: The Infatuation's Best Pork Buns guide describes the location as 'small and always busy,' meaning a queue at the counter is the norm rather than the exception.
Despite the crowding, The Infatuation notes 'the line typically moves pretty quickly,' framing Golden Steamer as high-turnover counter service — worth queuing for since the wait rarely drags.
