Check their Facebook and Twitter pages on Wednesdays to see if there's a "Word of the Day" -- very often gets you a free bao!
Go to WB and have the BBq pork Bao & Green Tea Ginger ALe... To die for!
Yes, the chocolate bao are awesome!!!
The pumpkin bao are amazing!
The coconut custard bao is delicious!
BBQ Pork Bao is excellent. Thai Curry Chicken Bao is just okay.
Soup dumplings, Bone marrow potstickers, the noodles in the chicken chow fun are incredible, and duck fried rice -- all amazing.
Everything was delicious! Given the array of dishes we sampled, I suggest Pekan Chicken, Short Rib noodle, soup dumplings and bone marrow potstickers. Based on portion sizes, groups of 2-4 are ideal.
🙌🏼 Must try starters include pork buns (buns are lighter and fluffier than anything you've had). Dan dan noodles with peanuts are perfect sweet and spicy dish. Finish with chicken for your protein.
Amazing craft beer options! Not to mention the food. Do yourself a favor and try the pork bao.
We went with a few friends. Amazing Moscow mules! I've had dreams about the Mac and Cheese. The tacos were great and the baos were more than I expected and were exceptional.
Bao is pretty darn good, cocktails are delightful
The short rib is so tender. The Paella is amazing and surprising. Better baos and bahns than the chain down the street!
Unique menu items include $7 umami nachos (tomato, cheese, scallion, pineapple, and choice of meat) and $3.50 sofrito marinated shrimp (with Asian slaw and served on a bao bun). Read more.
Asian + Latin fusion!? Nice! Bacos (bao tacos) were okay, but the chorizo egg rolls were crazy delicious & the sweet potato fries were honestly the best I've ever had... Curry dipping sauce, FTW!
Try the XiaoLongBao and Sushi!!
Awesome soup dumplings and potstickers
The soup dumplings and pork buns were excellent.
Barbecue Pork Bun: What you can taste is the moist goodness of the copious, brick-hued pork against the plush, subtle sweetness of the egg-washed buns.
Ham and Egg Bun! BBQ Pork bun!
Come here. Everything looks and is so delicious. I ordered the BBQ pork bun and the flavors and mouthfeel were so unique and amazing. Can’t wait to come back and try more!
Steamed buns are all under a buck. Get a bbq pork bun and a custard bun to stuff yourself silly.
The sponge cakes and BBQ pork buns are so fresh!
not vietnamese, but favorite bakery of all time. i love everything here. their steamed baos are a must.
Extra good: bok choy with mushrooms, eggplant with garlic sauce, beef stew with noodles, soup dumplings.
Their Xiao Long Bao has very thick skin and is full of MSG Read more.
Shanghai soup dumplings are a must try! So delicious.
Love banh mi and ban bao's for lunch. Black pepper tofu, caramel prawns, mussels are great dinner choices!
Had vegetable spring rolls, Chinese eggplant bahn bao, roasted pork shoulders, and bread pudding. All was just devine! The bread pudding needed a huge scoop of vanilla ice cream though :)
Tasty and quick lunch service. Bao’s, rice/noodle bowls, Pho and banh mi’s
Pretty good though I've had better ramen at Stringz. Pork bao buns are delicious
Not a bad spot, but seemed pricey to me for ramen, pork buns, and a beer. I enjoyed High Five a lot more (in the basement of Green Streat Meats). Deeper flavor, a lot spicier, a little cheaper.
Great! One of the best in Chicago certainly. I had the shio ramen, the broth was light was light & there was a generous helping of pork. Pork buns & takoyaki were both top notch as well. A+
Get the xiao long bao, siu mai, and fried shrimp/corn dumplings. So good!
They are open til 2am. Get the soup dumplings!!
Come here for the dim sum: steamed creamy egg yolk bun, xiaolongbao, and more.
The beef brisket ramen was garlicky and outstanding. VERY impressive brisket from Bub City is added to the dish. Split some baos before dinner. The pork bell was our favorite!
Skip the pork bun. It seemed a bit dry and wasn't very tasty. The kimchi & fried chicken ramen was good but, something felt missing.
Great fried chicken bao buns & kimchi ramen is spicy but delicious 🤩
Can't go wrong with Bao. Tried the Pork Shoulder and Saltimbocca. Excited to try the Bao doughnut!
Really good food! Great prices and the service was excellent. Try the Bao donut for a sweet treat!
The baos are amazing! They can be made without meat for vegetarian!
Don't miss the kale fritters or steam buns during happy hour. Highlights of our dinner.
Not sure that it's possible to go wrong here. Definitely try anything with pork belly (steamed buns, pig on a stick, & braised pork belly) & the rock shrimp. Cocktails are to die for!
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
