I wish their breads are individually wrapped so I can easily get more then what I can fit in a container. I'm often there with my kiddos and using a tray and a tong in the tight space can be a bit troubling. Love their breads tho.

A nice selection of dim sum but we got lots of steamed buns. I really like their combination of stuff inside the steam bun, but they 100% are deceiving because it's mostly bread and little filling. Especially the one with the Chinese sausage. It was soo good once either got to the meat, but I had to take off all that bun to make the perfect ratio of meat and bread to eat. Good place to try though, just stingy with the filling.

Quality not as good as before. Disappointed in the pineapple bun and bbq pork bun. Bread was a bit bitter and texture was not fluffy. Going downhill. Sorry.

This is a mixed review to reflect that there are some stand-outs as well as some "ehh" aspects to Mei Wa.So for the highlights, the staff are pretty nice here. Some say hello, checkout is quick, and I appreciate that the self-service feels like it has an honor system to it. I don't feel hawk eyes watching me as I go from the bakery to the dim sum area with my Styrofoam container in hand, and it's fine navigating and taking your time before heading up to the counter. It would be nice if they had paper bags or taller containers, especially for the baked goods.I usually come here for the green onion buns. They're so good! They're fluffy, glazed slightly, savory and sweet, and are about the size of a hand. The cocktail buns have a sweet filling and slightly sweet bread - maybe not as fluffy or soft as one might expect. The shu mai here is okay and they give plenty of soy sauce or chili sauce upon request. I think, comparatively, it's decently-priced enough to allow for sampling of other dim sum should you be curious.So as for the "ehh" parts - I found the almond cookie and the lotus paste pastry (not the moon cake) to be bland. I also was taken back by the pastry costing at least $3 but that might be because it's pure(?) lotus paste inside? Compared to the moon cakes sold in the front for $8, you could consider their pastry as a budget moon cake or to sample what you could be getting yourself into if you are buying the $50+ moon cake sets.The bak hong gou (steamed rice cakes) could be a bit sweeter and the oily exterior kind of detracted from the eating experience. The shrimp dumplings are also a bit heavy on the skin but otherwise okay.So overall, there are hits and misses here and there's always something to try because they have a sizeable selection.

Right next to Ranch99 is this bakery. Decent selection of baos chicken or pork), pastries, steam dim sum (haw gao, chicken feet). I had the chicken bao- super huge. It was very gingery. It was okay. The dough was nice and fluffy but the filling was minimal.I appreciate that their hot food is hot and their pastries are in a glass/plastic case.It's great for a quick snack/meal. All in all over $27 for 3 sticky rice, 3 buns, 4 sui mai.Quick service. Pay at the front desk after you choose what you want. No seats, chairs - in and out.

All the pastries tasted delicious. I order the cakes from here for most occasions. The service I received today was great. Next time I will order the drinks.

Their Portuguese (Hong Kong-style) Egg Tarts are absolutely scrumptious. Best I've had anywhere.
Self-serve style bakery with great dim sum plus sweet and savory Asian pastries. Store front is always clean and checkout is fast and friendly.

The deep fried bbq pork dumplings were soooo good. Prices were great too. Definitely will be coming back.

One of my favorite local bakeries which carries all your typical Asian bakery goods! I don't think there's anything particular about this bakery that makes it stand out, but it's a cute little bakery situated inside 99 Ranch Market, so it's convenient to visit after a grocery shopping trip or after a meal at one of the restaurants in the mall area. The baked goods are solid and they recently had a mini revamp, so it looks even more organized compared to before. The prices are also very reasonable and it's the perfect stop to make when you're craving some Asian bakeries! They have cakes, dim sum items, pastries, beverages and an assortment of breads/cookies- which are also discounted after a certain hour.

Delicious fruit cake!

Nice little bakery inside The Great Wall Mall. Seems a little old inside and I questioned the sanitariness. The deserts we tried were good. The two workers man & woman were very nice and I could tell they appreciated our business very much. If we are in this mall again we would buy from them again.
