" I have been wanting to try this place for ages! The bao did not disappoint! I loved the crispy chicken! The atmosphere was chill, but I wish there was more seating available. I really appreciated the personal touch with a handwritten note with my order! " (*Curated Review*)

" The bao I ordered were absolutely delicious, but I found the prices a bit steep for the portion sizes. I was still pleased with quality, and it was delightful when I received a handwritten note thanking me. It’s the little things that make a difference! " (*Curated Review*)

" Great food! The chicken bao was crispy and flavorful. However, I feel the dessert didn't quite match the excellence of the baos. It was good but could have been a little less sweet. Service was excellent, though, and the staff was very responsive! " (*Curated Review*)

" Tried Take a Bao after seeing so many friends rave about it, and I understand why! The freshness of the fillings and the quality of the baos are wonderful. I thoroughly enjoyed the spicy shrimp, although next time I think I will add an extra one because the portions felt a bit small. " (*Curated Review*)

" The baos from Take a Bao are excellent—top notch quality with fresh ingredients. I had the teriyaki chicken bao and my friend tried the garlic aioli shrimp. We were both impressed by the flavors. There was a handwritten note which made the experience even sweeter! " (*Curated Review*)

" The atmosphere was cozy even though it’s a takeout place. The person who served me was incredibly nice and even explained some of the menu items. I ordered the crispy chicken bao and the pork belly bao, both of which were good but did not blow me away. I would try other things next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" I ordered from Take a Bao for lunch, and I loved every bite! The food arrived hot, and the baos were soft and well-seasoned. The only concern I had was that the chicken in my crispy chicken bao could have been a bit juicier. Despite this, it was a wonderful meal overall, and I really appreciated the handwritten note! " (*Curated Review*)
