Wow Bao offers fast Asian street food like bao, pan-seared potstickers, steamed dumplings, rice and noodle bowls, soups, salads, and specialty drinks such as fresh ginger ale. They fuse centuries of tradition with modern Asian street food, and focus on sourcing the highest quality, sustainably-raised, non-GMO, antibiotic and steroid-free proteins. Each bao is cooked with the energy of steam for a healthier alternative to fast-casual. What’s a bao? It’s a soft, fluffy dough filled with savory or sweet flavors and steamed to perfection. Wow Bao opened in 2003 in Chicago’s iconic Water Tower Place Mall.

Horrible food. I bow was over cooked and dry, the kung pow bowl was disgusting. You’re better off getting food at the gas station.

I ordered signature combo and fried rice, this is what I received. Highly disappointed and waste of money time. Waiting to get food delivered and receiving this. What kind of fried rice is that ? I hope they have better competent employees to ensure food is correct.

Worst Asian restaurant ever. I can be sure that the baos are not freshly sreamed. All the baos can be purchased at any Asian grocery store for around $5 in Frozen bags containing 6 baos, and the restaurant charges for more than $3 for each bao.

Tried to order delivery through Doordash. I ordered chicken teriyaki baos, and they were out. They waited until my driver was at the store and then told her to call me to tell me to cancel my order (which at this point was nonrefundable because the driver was already there and Wow Bao had indicated that they had started preparing the food). I asked through the driver if the restaurant could just give me literally anything else as a substitute or just drop the missing item, and they said that there was no choice but to cancel my entire order. I don’t know if they just dropped the ball with accepting an order they weren’t prepared for, or if they were trying to avoid bad reviews/metrics by making me cancel the order instead of cancelling it themselves, but this was a subpar customer experience.

This is my first time ordering from wow bao. I have been craving bao buns for a while, and let me tell you; my only regret was ordering the 4 pack I instead of the 6 pack of boa. Each flavor were soo good. The ginger chicken dumpling were good also.
