Great Veg Choices

Bao is an upscale dim sum restaurant that delivers on all your dumpling favorites without the intimidation of not having a Cantonese friend with you.

Our group of ten were here for dinner and ordered a lot of things to share family style. I was surprised to see a large amount of vegan friendly options which are also indicated on the menu. I had my share of veggie XLB, pan fried dumplings, noodles, and eggplant-tofu stir-fry. Everything came out quickly and tasted great, with the dumplings having a nice wrapping texture and great fillings.

You'll be paying a pretty penny here for the dishes. The SF pricing is real when a tray of six dumplings comes out to $15 - $20 each. It's easy to over order so be prepared to spend a bit more than you think.

No reservations taken but if you arrive within an hour of opening for lunch or dinner, you shouldn't have issues getting a seat.

Fresh and delicious!

Would give 5 stars if I could. I tried all of the savory vegan dim sum options (veg soup dumplings, pot stickers, veg dumplings, veg bao) and all were excellent! The bao might have been my favorite, a great mushroom filling. Also tried the coconut oatmeal bao which was great. Vegan options clearly marked and pretty affordable.

Pros: affordable , delicious, vegan options clearly marked

Vegan soup dumplings

It’s hard to find vegan xiaolongbao, let alone such good ones - these hit. Coconut bunnies are cute too.
