don’t have anything else to add about the baked buns, they’re that good. but the amoy style rice noodles is also yummy! evrytime we visit nyc it’s a definite thing that we eat here every. single. day.
YanaBelle WaveGiugno 23, 2014Baked pork buns are better than steamed, more meat less fat jello. Coconut buns are everything so good I forgot to take a picture so just buy one and be happy. Get in, get out and no hurt feelings.

Untapped CitiesLuglio 27, 2012Still hungry after a night out on Bayard Street? Hard to believe, but Mei Li Wah's Big Bun will take care of you. Stuffed with chinese sausage, pork, and salted egg, it's the guiltiest of delights. Leggi tutto

Latiesha CastonAgosto 16, 2014The baked roast pork buns are my favorite. I am obsessed. I discovered them as the result of a happy accident, I meant to get steamed. And now I buy them by the dozen. They are my treat to myself.
The baked roast pork bun sold here is definitely the best in Chinatown. The filling is tender and savory-sweet and the outer shell baked to the perfect sheen. Best of all, it's a mere $1.
Christina C.Novembre 17, 2013Steamed (white) or baked (Brown) roast pork buns are delicious. I prefer the baked because the bread is a little sweet then you get a little salty from the today pork. Perfect combination.
John FrenchSettembre 24, 2015The Baked Roast Pork Bun is the closest I have found to the ones I had in Hong Kong. They are amazing, but the quest continues. The Famous Bun doesn't have anything in it, so don't waste your time.
Jake DylanAgosto 16, 2021GET A PORK BUN HERE IF ITS THE LAST THING YOU DO! Perfect for an early breakfast. $1.50 each and so so good.
jon ferrerFebbraio 29, 2016This was my parents go-to spot for Siopao / Char Siu Bao when I was a kid and I loved it. Unfortunately, the bao aren't as good as I remember. Too thick and bready but the price is still right.
K WSettembre 27, 2016The best buns in China town. Always hot. Always fresh. Cheap as hell. Pork buns are so filling and tasty. I always stop in and grab one.
Brian BDicembre 28, 2018The best pork bun I've ever had - by a mile. I usually go for the steamed buns but Mei Li Wah has converted to to baked!
Serious EatsSettembre 26, 2013Pass on the signature pork buns, which have been less impressive of late, but the rice rolls, congee, and steamed lotus paste buns are worth a buy.
the roast pork buns are amazing! make sure to get a fresh one, if you can! and they're less than $1!
NetsirkAgosto 30, 201199% Filipinos go here! The owners know what you are talking about if you order siao mai and siao pao!! Cheap and delectable, your money is worth a dozen of the steamed siao pao! Lami kaayo! Sarap! ;)
Try the Baked Pork Buns & Steamed Combo Buns - We always have to bring home a box of freshly made buns! #Yum (via @Foodspotting)
jake furstSettembre 8, 2014stick to the baked pork buns and the fresh shrimp rice noodle roll and you'll leave here happy. don't get too weird though, the rest of the stuff we tried was pretty suspect.
Real Cheap EatsGiugno 17, 2012Avoid the steamed roast pork buns here and stick with the famous baked version. "These soft, lightly glazed buns don’t skimp on the saucy, sweet and savory roast pork filling." Leggi tutto
Joan ParkAgosto 17, 2014Make sure to order the baked roast pork bun (not steamed). Sweet glazed skin, savory & ultra juicy pork on the inside for $0.80.
Clyde Erwin BarrettoMarzo 10, 2014Twelve pork buns for only $10.80, nuff said. And yes, the pork buns are actually pretty good and filling as well.- Michael HowardAgosto 16, 2014The baked pork buns are the best. Their fried dumplings were good too but it looks like they were taken off the menu recently.
Alyssa B.Ottobre 17, 2022Bbq pork rolls. Is it just me, or they taste better than before… plus there are kiosks for credit card now if you don’t have cash.
CompassAprile 24, 2014Roast pork buns are huge and deep fried and egg custard is creamy and traditional at the popular bakery.- Try the Baked Roast Pork Bun - So good! One of my favorites! (via @Foodspotting)
Gerald SotoSettembre 18, 2011Fastest way to bypass a large line on busy days is to just step all the way in and be seated. Order 2 buns then place the rest to go from your table.
Adam SaiewitzSettembre 26, 2011Cheap, delicious pork buns. Two make a meal, three make a feast. Get one steamed and one baked -- the sweet coating on the baked is awesome!- David DanzigerGiugno 27, 2013Good coconut buns. Just had unpleasant experience: counter boy wouldn't let me sit down (with drink I just purchased there). Restaurant empty. They need to train staff. (It is a tea house....)
Kaoru K.Settembre 21, 2013The baked pork buns really come correct. The rice rolls take about 10 min but they are worth the wait.
Best. Pork. Buns. $0.90. Best price I've found. And they're still warm. And full of meat.
Simone JungDicembre 14, 2015Go here for some delicious pork buns (baked and steamed) and their coconut buns!
If you like fatty pork, then their roasted pork buns are for you. I prefer the "Famous" bun. It's a plain bun, but slightly sweet and very chewy!
Matthew RechsGennaio 5, 2013No need to bother with anyplace else when it comes to steamed or baked pork buns. Also try "cocktail bun" and "famous bun."
BeeAgosto 12, 2014the pork buns are on the sweeter side, but delicious. The lotus seed buns were not that great. Congee orders take up to 10 minutes.
SusanSettembre 2, 2015Their rice crepes are a bit pricey but freshly made. Prepare to wait at least 10 minutes. Worth a try.
Ryan GallagherSettembre 11, 2018Pork buns are the choice here. Grab one and move on. Eat while walking.
Best fatty baked porkbuns in the city. Can easily make 2 into a quick, cheap dinner. In fact, all their dimsum is amazing!
Malony StaAnaSettembre 8, 2013Best Tai Pao in Chinatown. And try the coconut bread also it's really good!- Baked pork buns - get one, get a dozen, get a couple dozens and make new friends!
Pauline PGiugno 18, 2015Get the baked "char siao bao" or as my Fillipino friends call it "siao bao".
Sweet, bready bao and curt service. Don't bother sitting, just grab and go. Pork bun is good, but Hop Shing's is better.
Chelle 🗽Febbraio 24, 2011For the filipinos out there, their combination siopao/big bun hits the spot (delicious pork, shrimp, chinese sausage and boiled egg filling)
VansiLuglio 22, 2014The baked pork buns are really awesome! But I didn't enjoy anything else they had.
Katelyn LMarzo 25, 2012Get 1 steamed & 1 baked (for $0.90 each) and take them to Columbus Park to enjoy them outside.
Derrick KwanAgosto 15, 2013I must say - worst dim sum in CT. I don't know what was worst, the waitresses stank ass face or the chewy food. And how can you serve dim sum and not have tea ? Like dude. Really? Never coming back.
