Surprisingly good
Had an amazing experience!!! Staff is great and the food is phenomenal !!!!!!
The bao buns are soft, airy and delicious. The toppings go so well with the bun (I got the tofu bun) and the sauce was perfectly spicy and peanut buttery too, loved it! Great location at the Bay Adelaide centre in the Path.

Mean Bao is a convenient and quick lunch spot located in the Bay-Adelaide Centre's PATH walkway, catering to office workers during the workday. The menu is simple and straightforward, featuring signature items like the Cold Noodles dish and the must-try pork belly bao, which is juicy and flavorful. The bao buns are described as soft, airy, and delicious, with various toppings that pair well with the buns. Although the baos are a bit pricey, they are worth it for the quality. The restaurant offers pickup service in person or through apps, with a convenient pickup spot and no dine-in options. However, the new way of packaging baos in bowls has received mixed feedback, as it can be messy when eating by hand. The small storefront serves a variety of fillings in their signature bao, which are filling and reasonably priced at around $6.50 each. Customers appreciate the fresh food that is quick and fairly priced, making Mean Bao a great choice for a satisfying lunch in the area. In the summer, diners can head upstairs to enjoy their meal outside. Vegetarian and vegan options are also available.
