Cold fried rice.. like they didn’t cook it all the way and you can clearly see the white rice it was also all bunched together. Didn’t receive my bao nuts when i tried to contact no answer so no way to receive a refund. Don’t recommend :/

Delicious food (spicy shrimp bao, veggie dumplings, milk tea with brown sugar boba) and a very cute note. Happy new year!

Upon arriving just know this is what I believe is characterized as a ghost kitchen. Although this is my first time going to one, I know they are becoming more popular for restaurant owners to use. Cool, not mad at it one bit. What I didn’t particularly care for is that there are multiple restaurants operating out of this building and there’s one person that may or may not be at the front handling the takeout orders for all the restaurants inside. Otherwise, you’re picking your food up from a locker. I assume these restaurants get a lot of app orders. Guess for me it takes the hospitality out of the business and you have no idea whose the face behind who's making your food and the business itself. That was different for me and as a first time customer I didn’t particularly care for it.
I bought the spicy chicken bao and the garlic fried rice. The bao was good. I’ve had better but not bad. The fried rice though… The portion size for the garlic fried rice is plain ole degrading. They need to rename it “Inflation Fried Rice” because that’s how small the portion size was. I've included a pic even though I don't think it fully does it justice. You literally get more rice in a lunch meal from your standard Chinese takeout and Panda Express; mind you there’s also an entree that comes with those dishes at those restaurants. And it wasn’t good! Nothing but frozen peas and carrots lathered up soy sauce and a little butter. No lie, a kid could’ve made this. I went back in to ask for some soy sauce and it took 5 minutes for the reasons mentioned above. Overall, I was very disappointed and won’t be returning. I am not a person that writes reviews so if I’m doing so, that means it really wasn’t a pleasant experience.

Based on the reviews I had really high hopes for this place. I ordered through Uber Eats & got the crispy garlic aioli chicken bao, garlic aioli waffle fries and nutella heaven bao-nut. The crispy chicken was dry, the waffle fries were hard but the flavor of the sauce was good and the nutella bao-nuts were so hard it was like chewing on a hockey puck..disappointing

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 was so excited to visit but left disappointed! I ordered two bao buns the shrimp and chicken and crab ragoon. We ordered about an hour after opening so I was expecting fresh food! Everything was pretty much warm with not much flavor. The chicken was dry and crab ragoon weren’t crunchy! The aioli however was the best takeaway from my order.

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!
Ordered off uber eats and half of the order was missing, not sure whose fault it was but disappointing. The half that was received incorrect and cinnamon bao’s was bland.

Only recently have I been ordering from Take A Bao and the food is really good. I always get the fried shrimp and fried rice, along with crab Rangoons and the fish bao. Also, the peach tea or milk tea is refreshing! I recommend their food!
Ordered through doordash, and was pleasantly surprised with how delicious the food was! Everything was fresh and packaged well (I love a restaurant that uses high quality to go containers that can be reused at home ?). The staff left a cute inspirational note in the bag which made my day!! So sad I’m just here on vacation, I wish I could bring the store home with me. Open a location in Virginia Beach! ❤️
