I ordered from this restaurant bao dumplings and bao tea, and I absolutely loved all these four dishes. The braised beef noodle soup and the beef chow mein were exceptionally tasty. The dumplings also have great flavor! I highly recommend visiting this restaurant.
P.S. the customer service was great

My wife and I shared a matcha milk boba. This drink was perfectly crafted with a glorious cup to add. We also enjoyed the top of the beverage, this company added a perfect spout to consume the drink. 10/10, we will be purchasing it again when we visit family in North Jersey.

Had such a great experience here! There was a small misunderstanding with one of the menu items, and the manager personally delivered the missing item.
Wondertul customer service.
On top of that, the food was delicious. The noodles were flavorful and perfectly cooked, and the soup dumplings were flavorful. Highly recommend if you’re looking for great food and a team that truly cares about their customers.

This restaurant is a hidden gem. Super authentic northern Chinese food; dumplings are made to order, the filling is full of juice when served. Really fresh dough and meat. The noodles are very chewy and smooth. I am from Beijing, China and I think their taste is even better than most of the local restaurants in Beijing. Price is reasonable. My only wish is that I feel such great quality food deserve better dinnerware than just one time plastic plates. The Kenilworth store is small and feels more like a take out restaurant which is why I only gave 3 star for atmosphere. But that does not impact the food quality. Service is great. The waiter serves you food, cleans the table, and bring you the containers for packing left over without you even asking. Overall strongly recommend; you will not regret to have dined there.

I ordered the signature milk tea and really enjoyed it — not too sweet, just the way I like it. The portion was generous, and the ice ratio was spot on. The drink came with a cat-shaped lid, which was a fun touch! Service was fast, courteous, and kind, and the shop itself was very clean and welcoming. I haven’t tried the food yet, but if it’s anything like the drinks, I’m sure it’s delicious. I’ll definitely be back!

If I could go back to this day … 8/6/24
I would make it disappear from my memory banks. The only good thing there was the bao chicken. Evening else seems microwaved, not fresh!
Soup dumplings were awful including the small roach that came out of the steaming basket. I wanted to die, the only reason I ate, was because my husband paid 70-something dollars for the food. They gave me a new order of dumplings, which were microwaved as well and tasted like blah! Will never step foot into this place. Beware if you do. I appreciate the owner’s response but we still paid and experienced something awful.

Nice casual option for a few specific Chinese dishes that aren’t usually found in this area, but how much you enjoy it will depend on your expectations of Asian cuisine.
We spotted Bao Dumplings while driving and decided to give it a try. We were surprised to see soup dumplings, and I was pleasantly surprised to see mapo tofu (a spicy tofu dish) as well. Note that my wife and I really enjoy Asian cuisine which affects our reviews of Asian restaurants.
For science, we ordered:
– Soup dumplings
– Fried pork & leek dumplings
– Mapo tofu (includes rice)
– Dark roasted oolong bubble tea with tapioca and 30% sugar
Soup dumplings: For a local shop, it’s nice that they offer soup dumplings. But I think the presentation makes them a problem because as you can see from my photos, they serve the soup dumplings overlapping and smashed together in a small rectangular plastic container. This makes it so that even careful manipulation didn’t let us keep the soup in the soup dumpling, despite the dumplings’ skin being a bit on the thicker side. Otherwise, it’s nice having this as an option but if I could make a suggestion to the restaurant it would be to find a circular or different presentation method so that more people can enjoy the soup dumpling with the soup inside.
Mapo tofu: (Reader, remember that I have a subjective taste for what I like in mapo tofu)You can taste something of a savory bean sauce which I like. There is a light sensation of heat, less than tabasco, I’d say. I would not come back specifically for this.
Fried dumplings: Of the items ordered, we enjoyed these best. These are closer to bite-sized dumplings rather than the longer form factor of Japanese gyoza. They’re served with soy sauce and a mustard sauce of sorts. I didn’t realize till later that they also offer a paid chili oil which maybe could’ve helped, but we didn’t notice it until we almost finished eating.
Bubble tea: watered down and likely not steeped long enough to present the tea flavor. Tapioca was chewy.
The staff were friendly and helpful. Restaurant was clean and decorated (and true to their description of being a casual eatery rather than fancier dine in). Parking can be tricky but free in a small shared strip mall lot off main road.
Hoping business goes well!

Tasty food with lots of choices for the whole family. We did takeout for 5 items:
–Wok Fried Noodles – bouncy and satisfying!
–Bao Sampler Platter – Really good, especially with chili oil! This came with different fillings: Pork with Scallion, Chicken with Corn, and Beef with Onion and you can have them steamed or fried. I super recommend getting their add-on of Spicy Minced Pork Chili Oil which really elevates this dish.
–Jasmine Boba Tea (customized for my request of zero ice, zero sugar) – pretty good, but the boba was kinda hard.
–Crab and Pork Soup Dumplings – Pretty good. These are very likely much better eaten in the restaurant. In general, the filling was slightly too dense and the wrapper was a little too thick compared to the same dish I’ve had elsewhere.
–Bao Chicken – A family fave. This came with 3 pieces of broccoli and was heavy on the chicken which had a light coating and yummy sauce. The portion lasted my kids several meals.
With food this good, this spot can take a bao. 😉

Really nice guy and really yummy food! We got the pan fried pork dumplings, 2 of the pork soup dumplings, the bao chicken, and the chicken and broccoli and they were all delicious! It was $85 in total with drinks. Parking is a little small but the service was so nice and quick

Wanted to try this place out since it said it made their own soup dumplings and noodles. The soup dumplings flavor was good but 3 out of 6 soup dumplings didn’t have soup in them. They were also kind of thicker then I’m used to. They put the the steam paper into the take out container and so the dumplings got suck to them so I lost most of the soup. The braised beef noodle soup has a very flavorful soup. I received mostly fat then beef so that was very disappointing. For $14 I expected to get a lot of beef but that isn’t the case. I was going to order their bubble tea but they only offer coconut milk as a alternative milk so I didn’t order it.
