Fantastic bao, moon cakes, dahn taht... what a treasure. The staff is kind and friendly, can't recommend enough. Walk past the silly long Tik Tok line in front of Wah Fung and get your fix at this gem.

Their pork buns are amazing 🤩. The staff is also helpful if you are indecisive and pleasant. It’s a small space, but the food will make up for the space.

One of the best egg tart crusts around and the custard is filling has a nice jiggly not too firm texture like most of the competitors. Just wish it were a little sweeter. Exceptionally nice staff.

This is my second (and third) time visiting and it will always be a staple of my visits moving forward. Everything here is so good. The highlights for us were the moon cakes, the mango mochi roll, and of course, their soft and flaky egg tarts. I still dream about those egg tarts. I cannot recommend this place enough.

Found myself craving egg tarts today and my partner suggested Tao Hong after a quick google search, and I’m so glad we went! Lives perfectly up to the hype; egg tarts are flaky, soft, not too sweet and totally delicious. Plus, the ladies working were incredibly kind! I asked for vegan options for my partner, and they were so eager to help (although we ultimately weren’t able to find any, so vegan friends take note!)
We’ll definitely be back!

the atmosphere is very cozy and the staff were very nice 🥰 just had a corn bun i picked up from there and it was so delicious, i'm definitely getting it again the next time i come! i got a few buns, two mini moon cakes, and a box of cookies and it was only $17 total 👀 very worth it, imo

A takeout Cantonese pastry shop offering a wide variety of treats. The egg tarts are perfectly flaky with a smooth custard filling at a great price ($1.5 as of Sept 2024).

Hidden gem! Egg tarts are delicious. Moon cakes too - sesame was a nice flavor. Much more low key than trying to nav Tai Pan or Fay Da.
amazing hot dog bun! Also great egg tart.

Cha siu bun is overhyped. Not much filling and the bun itself is artificially sweet - like the prepackaged buns with preservative packets sold at supermarkets.
Wow! I discovered this bakery by accident this morning, and was blessed by getting the first taro bun of the day!
It was still steaming hot and absolutely, magnificently delicious. Chewy, tender crust, and just the right amount of sweetness.
Everyone working here was also extremely helpful and friendly! My original choice, an egg custard bun, wasn’t ready yet, but the woman working offered several suggestions and was genuinely excited to be able to hand me the day’s first warm taro bun.
I’m so glad I walked in and tried something new! I will definitely be back :)

A little bakery that sells sweets but also huge baked pork buns (although the filling wasn't exciting...)
God I love Chinatown bakeries, especially this one.
Fabulous egg tarts. Flavorful, flaky, sturdy crusts and silky not-too-sweet custard. 10/10.
Bring cash and try the similarly excellent pineapple buns and mango mochi.
