“As a bao bun addict, I was ecstatic to discover this gem of a place. Food: 10, price: 10, the quirky hand written note: 10. I love it”
“Ordered online. Food was very quick to arrive and looked fantastic. Very tasty (if a bit messy) and very reasonable pricing. Had a special request in my order and they accommodated me without any fuss. Would order again.”
“Delicious food (spicy shrimp bao, veggie dumplings, milk tea with brown sugar boba) and a very cute note. Happy new year!”
“I ordered the crispy spicy aioli chicken bao, and it was bigger than I expected! It was super saucy, and they even included an extra side of sauce. The flavor was a solid 10/10, and the delivery was impressively fast. To top it off, the kitchen sent a cute little note—such a nice touch!”
“I recently ordered from Take a Bao through Uber Eats, and I was thoroughly impressed. I tried their chicken teriyaki bao, garlic aioli bao, chicken dumplings, and cinnamon buns, and I also added garlic butter fried rice. I requested extra chicken and a spicy kick, and they nailed it perfectly! What really stood out was their attention to detail—they not only delivered delicious food but also included a thoughtful letter to cheer me up. The food quality, packaging, and overall service were exceptional. Highly recommend this restaurant for a fantastic dining experience!”
“It was my first time ordering from them, and honestly it made my day, i wanted some comfort food after having a bad day dealing with the grief of losing my mother last month. I opened my delivery to a very sweet handwritten note that made me smile. This staff is amazing and has beautiful service and i just want to thank them so very much, their positivity goes along way. Thank you for amazing food and spreading kindness to all your customers. 10/10 will be forever returning!”
“Try the Nutella bao!!!!!! Loved the veggie gyoza & teriyaki chicken bao”
“I ordered delivery and the food was all packaged very well, and they even left me a cute handwritten note! The food was delicious. I will be ordering again from here soon!”
“Fantastic food. Great flavors. Reasonable portions. The sweetest touch was a handwritten note for my takeout. Just an uplifting sweet lil note. Definitely reccomend. I did the bao out. Good for two people or if you are feeling extra hungry.”
“There needs to be a lot of love to make delicious food. And take a bao shows that appreciation through their flavorful and packed baos, along with adding a thoughtful note. We got the crispy chicken and tofu baos and will be trying their other baos soon!”
“Not only is the food PHENOMENAL, the staff and establishment as a whole are kind hearted. They literally hand write thoughtful notes/messages in your to go orders which have put a smile on my face and touched my heart. Keep doing what you’re doing I hope nothing but the best for this company!!”
