I'm not a huge fan of Bao Nine. I ordered a the bam bam shrimp bao. It's pricey, and I don't feel like the ingredients really complemented one another (i.e. the veggie toppings). I was upset to see that there wasn't a Peking duck bun because that is the authentic version. Not really sure if this is culture appreciation or appropriation because it really lacks the tie back to Taiwanese/Chinese culture.

First time having it only got the chicky chicky bun and it was actually amazing I don't know the other items so can't say how good but definitely get the chicky bun great service as well!
Really fun to casual eating. We love bao buns so this place was perfect after shopping and needing a pick-me-up. We can't wait to come back.
Super simple menu - but everything is so flavorful! Great customer service tbe moment you walk in - the food was amazing. I can't wait to go back & try one of their signature bowls! The atmosphere is quiet, super clean, and the ambiance is perfect for a quick lunch/date. I can't wait to go back!
Bao Nine was right across from our hotel and one night we decided to grab some baos for a late night snack. It was the best decision ever, and I'm so sad I didn't try it earlier during our trip!

The food here is AMAZING. I've been guilty of ordering delivery back to back this week to my office and I don't feel one bit bad about it. The tastes are soo unique and I just can't get enough of the crunchy cucumbers, casava chips and sticky chicken! Might just have to reorder today!
It was my 1st having these and they were delicious! The service was quick and the food was fresh. The store is very clean and the staff is welcoming and willing to help you figure out what you'll like.
The fusion works. Soft and slightly sweet bao with a ton of yummy fillings. The store is absolutely spotless. Fast and friendly service. Good spot to grab a quick bite.
