Bao Master - Chinese Near Me - Alhambra, California

Pregnancy cravings hit me bad yesterday and I really wanted to get some XLB with my family. I know Alhambra has a lot of good spots but we really wanted to try something new. Upon arriving, we were seated right away and was served a small plate of complimentary cold appertizers which were all delicious. We ordered two kinds of XLB, chicken pot stickers, another kind of soup dumpling, fried rice and crab roe noodles. Everything came fresh, hot and delicious. The portions are also huge for the price. I highly recommend this place! read more

This place was such a let down. When I saw that they had the viral crab roe noodles, I decided to come here for dinner with my bf. The place look well decorated but knowing that they had just opened 4 months ago, you'd think that it's poorly maintained and decorated with cheap materials. Because how is one restroom out of order and the only other one working doesn't have a door handle but instead you have to pull it open with a zip tie. Anyways, we ordered via tablet and got the Chilled Cucumber with Yuzu Sauce, Spicy Shrimp & Kurobuta Pork Wonton, Crab Meat & Scallion Noodles, Kurobuta Pork & Crab XLB, & Sautéed Garlic String Beans. Chilled Cucumber with Yuzu Sauce: 0/5. The cucumber looked it has been marinating in the fridge for more than a week. Didn't taste fresh. Had no crunch nor was there any yuzu flavor. Also, it looks nothing like the photo on the menu. Spicy Shrimp & Kurobuta Pork Wonton: 1/5. Drenched in peanut sauce and that's all you taste Crab Meat & Scallion Noodles: 2/5. Not enough crab, not much flavor, noodles were overcooked, very oily. Kurobuta Pork & Crab XLB: 4/5. Pretty good. Had a good amount of filling, lots of soup and really thin wrapper. Sautéed Garlic String Beans: 3/5. The flavor was good. I like the minced meat but the beans were not fresh. In conclusion, I would not be back or recommend this place. There are plenty of good XLB restaurants in the area and this was not one of them. read more

Modern decor dumpling house. Complimentary appetizers include peanuts, seaweed, and black fungus. I ordered: * Pan-Fried Kurobuta Pork Buns - 4/5 ($7.98) * Meat & Kurobuta Pork Soup Dumplings - 3.5/5 ($8.98) * Hand-Pulled Spicy Cabbage - 3.5/5 ($9.98) * Braised Beef Noodle Soup - 2.5/5 ($19.98) The beef wasn't tender enough, and the soup base was just okay. For almost $20, I expected a bit more. The other dishes were reasonably priced and tasted decent. Easy to find indoor parking or you can park across the street read more

Finally went to try the newly opened Bao Master and enjoyed the XLB! The kurabota pork and crab xlb was very flavorful and had a good ratio of filling and wrapper. Also tried the extra large soup xlb and it was so fun to eat. They give you a straw to drink the soup inside but just need to be careful as it's very hot. Service was fast and friendly. A great place to eat with family or group of friends! read more

A new XLB restaurant in town and it slapped, HARD!!!! The spicy wontons were the best I've ever had, and I prefer it to Ding Tai Fung's. It's different but super flavorful and has a nice peanuty kick. We also ordered the stir fried string beans, which were tasty enough, and their big XLB. This is where I was a bit disappointed - it barely had any filling in it and was mainly skin and soup. It was still very flavorful and tasty, but the lack of meat was disappointing. Restaurant is definitely new and nicely decorated with lots of natural light. Service was efficient and kind. There's a free parking structure next to it, and has multiple levels so it wasn't too hard to find a spot. Will definitely return to try their XLB. Hopefully it has more filling than the big version. read more

Came here the other day for dinner with my mom. It wasn't too busy so we were seated right away. We ordered the pork and crab soup dumplings and the regular pork soup dumplings. Flavor was good, but the skins were a bit too thin and kept breaking when we picked them up, so we lost most of the soup which was kind of disappointing. We also got the pan fried buns which I really liked. The bottoms were extra crispy and the filling was juicy. The homestyle chicken and egg fried rice was surprisingly good too, had a nice wok flavor. We also ordered the stir fried bok choy which was simple but tasty. They give you a small complimentary appetizer and hot tea which was a nice touch. Overall a solid meal. I'd come back to try more of the menu next time. read more

First time was Sunday around 12 & it wasn't too busy yet. Place order through QR code We ordered about 9 or 10 dishes & the total was about $120 which is pretty good I liked the variety of food & how they made their own twists to their dishes unlike the traditional ways of making it (like the spicy wonton had sesame sauce, not my favorite but unique) Tables favorites dishes: shao mai, onion pancake, xlb, green beans The noodles tasted like a restaurant version of Indomie, Chinese burger had a great crispy breading but meat a little dry, chicken soy sauce fried rice was a bit bland, & the large crab xlb was just okay and had little filling I would come back for the favorites & to try other dishes read more

Went to check out Bao Master in Alhambra since it's been on my list to try. They have been opened for a couple months so decided to pay them a visit. When we arrived there were about 2 other tables there. You order off a QR code and the staff brings your orders to the table. The items were pretty affordable as we ordered a lot of small dishes and sides. For a party of 4 and a toddler we ordered about 10 items. We ordered the cucumbers, pickles veggies, pork soup dumplings, braised gluten, beef rolls, hot and sour soup, spicy wontons, glutinous rice dumplings, pork chop fried rice and pan fried pork buns. Half the items were under $10 as they were side dishes and nothing was over $20. The items that amazes my table were the pork soup dumplings, glutinous rice dumplings and pan fried pork buns. The pork soup dumplings had a thin layer of skin and the dumpling was very soupy. This was toddler approved as she ate most of the order. The meat was flavorful and it didn't really need any sauce. The glutinous rice dumplings was the talk of the table. It was not only soft but full of flavor. They loaded up the sticky rice with seasoning and meat and we wanted more. The pan fried pork buns must be eaten with caution. They were burning hot and you needed to make a slit for it to cool down. The bottom of the hh was super crispy and had a nice crunch. Everything else was average or above average. Didn't think anything was bad and it was all a good price. Would definitely be coming back to try their other items. read more

A Bao dumplings restaurant located at Alhambra area, it wasn't too busy during Saturday night on the weekend... Bao Master is located inside the parking lot, the restaurant is neat n clean enough, faster services with QR code self ordering n delivering, fast n efficiency. I was ordering XLB Xiao Long Bao with pork soup dumplings, good enough not too impressive about taste. Beef fried rolls, fried pork dumplings, pork fried buns!! These items are more tasty n delicious!! It's a pretty good pricing for nowadays!! Recommend for people that like dumplings restaurants!! read more

Order through a qr code from the table, it doesnt matter if theres multiple phones as it updates and tells you who adds it. To me bao masters isnt too salty. I love the fried rice and it had the perfect amount of salt. The pork xlb was good too. It feels like its on the smaller side, but there was 50% soup and meat ratio. The big mac xlb was a disappointment though. I was expecting it to be the size of the steamer. It was alot smaller than i thought and it was basically all soup and a little bit of crab. I dont even think there was pork in it. That was the only reason i knocked a star off. Next time i wouldnt get that but id try their other items. read more

最近不曉得為什麼，到處都是新開的包子，小籠包店，昨天元宵節，到downtown 的天后宮去祈福，順便來探這家也開有兩個多月的 Bao Master 我覺得這家店是可惜的，不論環境， 服務， 出菜的效率， 整潔，價格，一開始還送精美小菜，整體感覺都很棒，但是試了七道菜， 我跟朋友兩個都覺得只有小籠包是好吃的，他們家的小籠包皮薄，餡做的也不錯，蛋炒飯也行，其他的，都大概在70~75分上下，非常普通，跟員工聊天才知道原來這一家是36宴的老闆們開的，整棟大樓都是他們的，所以環境，硬體沒話說，跟36 宴給我的感覺很像， 環境有下重本，但是東西沒有那麼好吃, 小姐服務非常好, 這點是值得嘉獎的 read more

Note there isn't clear signage but you need to check in on the stand that says Chowbus to be put on the waitlist for a table. I wasn't too sure because there was no staff at the front and there was a crowd around the kiosk so I didn't realize that we had to check in. Overall the dumplings are semi-competition to Good Alley in my opinion. However a few notes hence the 4 stars and where it has room for improvement: + Crab XLB: skin is thin and well done. I love the amount of soup. That being said, the crab isn't noticeable flavor wise. + pan fried buns: These are very good as well. The bao skin is chewy and the inside is flavorful although my fiance still doesn't think both the dishes beat what Good Alley offers. + oil scallion noodles: This is where I took off the star. The flavor was very lacking. While the noodles were done fine, I didn't taste much flavor on this and it's going to be a pass for me. read more

New restaurant in Alhambra - located in the Bakesic structure. We ordered a bunch of dishes but the highlights were the hot and sour fish and their pan fried buns. I would skip the beef roll and their XLB because they were cold and underwhelming. The restaurant was busy so service was definitely lacking. We did not have the correct number of plates and utensils and our cups were all give to us extremely dirty (I wish I took photos). I had go to and get utensils myself. I also had to stand up and pay because no one would come get the check. They also got our order wrong but they were so busy that I just wanted to leave instead of complaining. read more

Came to Bao Master over the weekend with hubby for the first time. I was a bit disappointed that they didn't have all the items from the menu I saw from online, because I wanted to try their Dan Dan Noodle. One other thing was while we were eating, I did feel like one of the servers kept rushing us. I was obviously still eating our food, and first she brought the check asking us if we wanted to pay, but then she said we could our time. Then as I was literally eating the last bite of my soup, she came and asked if we were ready to pay yet. That was a bit irksome. Anyway, they do offer a small tray of appetizers including seaweed, woodear mushrooms, and roasted salt peanuts. You order by scanning the QR code on each dining table and all dishes are submitted through a ChowBus link. We ordered more of their baos and dumplings to try their namesake and thought it was all fairly decent. They have a huge bottle of the sweet black vinegar to use for xiaolongbaos on each table, and soy sauce. -Hot & Sour Soup (for two) was okay. Not sour or spicy enough for hubby & I's preference so we added a little of the table's vinegar to our bowls for taste. -Kurobata Pork Soup Dumplings were good. Pretty thin skin and good soup content. Best eaten right away when hot, not as good cold. -Pan Fried Kurobata Pork Buns were standard. -Spicy Shrimp & Kurobata Pork Wontons, were not spicy. Mild flavor with either a light sesame or peanut sauce and chili oil. We added the table's vinegar to taste. -Garlic Sauteed String Beans were standard. You have to order rice on the side, wok dishes do not come with it. Portions are a little bit on the small side, but we enjoyed enough to merit another visit. Will be back to try other dishes. read more

Been wanting to try this restaurant and finally had a chance today by ordering to go. First off, their opening time is listed as 11 am but no one picked up the phone the 3 times I called between 11 and 11:25. They finally picked up around 11:28 AM, and even then, I don't think they were ready for customers. Their computer wasn't ready yet and they didn't have all their menu items available. I ordered a pork dumpling (the XLB), pan fried pork buns, house special Chinese pork burger, and the classic scallion oil noodles. I was told my order would be ready in 20 minutes and not surprisingly, 20 minutes later when I arrived, it was not ready yet. I ended up waiting an additional 10 minutes before my order was ready. Portions are pretty small here but food tasted pretty good. Their pan fried pork buns are really juicy and flavorful. I want to come back and try their other noodles though. Their to go boxes and bags are also pretty fancy looking. read more

Trying this new restaurant during their soft opening. The cucumber salad was good with a unique taste to how they were marinated. The black mushroom appetizer was also good but the more you ate, the stronger the flavor profile got. The spicy beef noodle soup had a different profile taste than all the others we've tried, the flavor seemed subtle. I really like the chili wontons, that's my favorite dish. Customer service was good, you placed your order from QR code on the table. read more

Hole in a wall, with a very nice interior decoration. Definitely a level up from din tai fung. The menu have a large selection but you will need to order through the phone. Service is really fast and I highly recommend ordering as you want because the food comes out really fast and all together. Highly recommend getting the xlb and noodles. Parking entrance is next to the place. read more

When searching new restaurants in the area, I found this interesting dumpling place called Bao Master, located in Alhambra at the corner of Main St and Garfield Ave. This restaurant is located where Kyoto Gyukatsu and Habit are, but it is in the back of the mall and isolated to itself. Nonetheless, I visited to give it a try. We went on a weekend, and were seated quite quickly. The staff are very nice. The restaurant has a cozy vibe to it. We ordered through QR codes, which is quite trendy these days. We ended up sharing some pan fried soup dumplings and some shanghai rice cakes. There were some peanuts and pickled vegetables complimentary, which were nice. The rice cakes were not too salty and the flavor was solid. The pan fried soup dumplings were quite juicy but a bit small. Overall, solid dumpling restaurant for San Gabriel Valley. read more

Food was okay overall. Flavor was not very bold, so to some it might be on the blender side, to others it might be seen as clean. The giant soup dumpling was already punctured and leaking before it arrived and the hot and sour soup was not hot nor sour enough and I found a rock-like thing at the bottom that I had to spit out. Service was quick, maybe a little too quick because as I was paying, they cleaned out the table before I could finish my last bite. I like down after and it was gone. read more

I give Bao Master a 3.5/5. This restaurant was pretty delicious overall but there were some things that could use improvement. There was no wait on a Thursday afternoon and parking in the nearby plaza was easy. The restaurant interior was nicely decorated and the tableware was really nice. They seated us (2) right away and gave us free snacks to enjoy. The seaweed was delicious and slightly tangy, the black fungus was a little sour, and the peanuts added a nice crunch. The pork xiao long bao came out first and weren't bad but wasn't as pork flavored as I thought. They were alright. The spicy beef noodle soup came out next and was pretty delicious. I liked the soup and the beef was super soft and tender. The beef was my favorite part of my meal. The bok choy was a little bland and tasted watery. I wish they soaked in the soup better like the sour veggies, those tasted a little better. The noodles were firm and we preferred if they soaked up the soup flavor a little better, but the soup was flavored nicely and wasn't too spicy. They tasted better when eaten together. The fried dumplings weren't bad and came out crispy, but I wish they had a little more juice in them. Overall, we paid $55 for 2 which was a little pricey for a lunch but we did take some noodles home and most of the fried dumplings so it was worth it. The service was also pretty nice and we were tended too nicely. Overall, it was a nice spot and the food was good. read more

This is a welcome addition to the Alhambra area. When I visited the restaurant was quite busy, even for a Friday night but we were seated quite quickly. The interior of the restaurant is well lit and has a modern aesthetic to it. Dishes we ordered were the pan-fried dumplings with pork and shrimp, pork rib fried rice, and crab roe scallion noodles. The highlight of the meal was the crab roe scallion noodles, the texture of the noodles was firm and springy and the crab roe offered a nice distinct flavor. The pan-fried dumplings were also good; however, the fried rice was a bit lacking in flavor. I think other places around the area such as Good Alley or Thumbling make a better fried rice. However, I am glad that this place opened in Alhambra as it's close to home. read more

Newly opened Chinese food with really tasty dishes and friendly service. I came to try out their soup dumplings since I heard lots of good things about this place. There's a parking lot attached to the building, so there shouldn't be an issue finding parking. The interior is very new and modern, and there's plenty of tables for varying size parties. We ordered everything from the pork soup dumplings, the large pork and crab dumpling, pan fried dumplings, fried rice and more. Everything was really flavorful and seasoned well. read more

Decided to bring my family to try this new(ish) spot. We are big Good Alley fans, so that was the bar. Shanghai rice cakes 2/5 way too salty and wet for a stir fry dish, would rather order this at other places Crab roe scallion oil noodles: 2.5/5 perfumed slightly with crab, needs more crab flavor. Don't really taste the scallion but the noodle texture is good. Family said it's very fishy tasting and they really didn't like it but it's not super off putting to me personally. I mixed it with a bit of vinegar and it was better. Pork soup dumplings 4/5 slightly sweet from the broth, tender pork Red oil dumpling 1/5 filling is good but why is there sesame paste ????????? I did not like this at all. Chinese burger (did not personally eat) family said it was one of the best dishes. Crispy dough and flavorful filling. Pan fried bao dumpling 生煎包 4/5 pretty solid! Filling is tender and super soupy, outside is half shallow fried so it gives a contrasting texture. I personally don't really care for this style so I'll never rate it super super high. Crab and pork soup dumpling 4.5/5 very soupy best of the spread Solid customer service with lots of parking. I would choose to go to Good Alley or DTF. read more

Worthy of a try. Their food is good, ambiance is light and bright, which I like. Service is minimal at first because you order with QR code using your phone and the cell signal in the restuarant is really bad. They have wifi, but I don't like to sign on to open wifi, so that is a big downside here. Food is good and high quality and everything that we order were yummy. read more

Decided to stop by here for a business meeting lunch. Ordered a few of their dumpling dishes and overall I would say it's okay. We ordered the pan fried bun, fried pork dumplings, xiao long bao, hot & sour soup and some appetizers. The flavor of the filling is good but it's nothing special. The pan fried bun had some juice inside but the dough was way too thick and didn't have a great texture. Fried pork dumplings were good, skin was thin and it was super crispy. Scallion pancakes were disappointing, portions small and I would describe the taste exactly like the frozen supermarket ones. Hot & sour soup was pretty bland, it was neither hot or sour. Service was pretty good for a dumpling restaurant. People kept checking up on us throughout the meal which was nice. The location is brand new so the interior decoration is very pretty. Space is clean and very modern. read more

Seriously? They keep opening up hot and new and this place is on fire the good kind. Service is great and this could packed during lunch or dinner so be ready. Dumpling is amazing, thin skin and meat is flavorful. We ordered variety and most is great, beside the lowest point goes to the onion pancakes. Sponges tofu mushrooms is excellent, beef stew is a bit light but still good. Dumpling is excellent also. Damn all overall is great. congrats guys and hopefully will last forever. Oh price point is perfect, not expensive read more

Another XLB and beef noodle soup has popped up and this time, in Alhambra! Got their kurobuta pork/crab XLB which was my favorite. The scallion noodles were a bit too mushy for my liking.

I took my mom here to celebrate her birthday (my mom wanted dumplings) and I wish I took her somewhere else. We didn't had to wait long on Saturday, but service could of been better. So we ordered the foods via the QR code. The food came before they gave us water. Not off to a good start. We ordered a few items, cucumber salad, beef noodle, pork XLB, gluten wheat appetizer, beef rolls, and fried wagyu bao. Out of all the dishes, the wagyu bao was the best. Everything else was mid. But I will say, the cucumber salad we ordered was weird or just maybe not to my taste. The cucumber salad was super sweet...it had a sweet soy sauce taste. It was so sweet, in my opinion that i thought I was eating a dessert dish. Later on, it got pretty busy and it was hard to catch our server for additional items (soy sauce, extra napkins). We also ordered a drink togo and that took forever to come out. Didn't notice the ambiance much, but when you walk in at the store front, you'll see a mascot statue that reminds me of the din tai fung mascot. Overall, this place wouldn't be my first choice for dumplings since we have alot of other options in the area. read more

We came in after craving some soup dumplings and we are so glad we decided to give this place a shot. Really enjoyed the appetizer that they give before you order : the salted toasted peanuts , salted edamame and the woodear mushrooms. 8/10 Braised wheat gluten in sweet soy 8/10 Soft and well marinated mushrooms and tofu that is flavorful and not too sweet. Crab meat noodles 9/10 Flavorful and the crab meat is yummy and nicely portioned for the price you get. Pan fried kurobuta pork buns 10/10 Nice and crispy underside and juicy pork filling and with the soup , it makes the dish more appetizing. Big Mac crab meat and kurobuta pork soup dumpling 7/10 Soup is really yummy and delicious. Nice amount of crab meat but I wish there are some more pieces of the pork meat. Very quick service and friendly staff even if you don't really speak Chinese. Elegant and luxe interior , perfect for hanging out with friends and/or family for some yummy food. read more

Saw this spot before it opened and wanted to check it out! The experience was overall just okay. There was no wait and you order via QR code. They served us a little dish of mushrooms, seaweed salad & peanuts. Things we ordered: - Cucumber salad ($6): To be honest, wasn't a fan. The cucumbers weren't crispy and there wasn't any depth of flavor.. It just tasted like soy sauce. Portion was also very small. - Pork pot stickers ($8): Got the job done, was good but nothing special. - Scallion Oil Noodles ($10): Again, portions were pretty small. Noodles were just okay.. It was giving instant ramen. - Spicy shrimp and pork wontons ($12): The sauce was good, nice spice. - Pork and crab xlb ($18): A premium price for the crab but you can't taste it. The soup dumpling itself was really good but I would just order the pork ones. Overall, everything was beautifully plated but really small. Our order also came out very sporadically and not all at once. We finished all our food and waited an extra 10 mins after our table was cleaned up until our XLBs came out. ~$65 meal and no one was full. Unfortunate. read more

The food here is decent, but not particularly memorable. The cucumber dish feels like it's trying to replicate Din Tai Fung's version, but it doesn't quite hit the mark--definitely a different level. The xiao long bao are good, though again, not comparable to Din Tai Fung. One of the main reasons we come here is the convenience--there's usually little to no wait, which is a big plus. The restaurant itself is modern and well-designed, and parking is very easy with plenty of spaces in the structure. Service, however, is just so-so. Our server wasn't very friendly and didn't smile, which made the experience feel a bit lacking. Overall, it's a decent spot for a quick meal without the long wait. We'll likely come back and give it another try. "Try to avoid the sweet and sour soup and 上海粗炒, but if you really like it... let me know if they are getting better . " read more

This restaurant recently opened so we tried it. Plenty of parking is available since there is a large parking structure. The place is well lit and nice ambiance. Service was fine. We ordered kurobuta pork and crab soup dumplings, shrimp and pork pot stickers, braised beef noodle soup, baby cucumbers (overpriced for the quantity), scallion pancake (we would not order again), crispy beef pancake roll, rice cake with pork and spinach, and sauteed string beans. Overall the dishes were fine, but not stellar. read more

Checked out the newly opened Bao Master right next to Sprouts and Burlington. The first thing you notice is how fresh the space feels. The interior is super modern and really brightly lit, which is a nice change of pace. The ordering process is a breeze; you just scan the QR code, and the food starts flying out of the kitchen pretty quickly. The menu definitely gives off Din Tai Fung vibes, but they have a few unique items that set them apart. The Food Breakdown * Giant Xiao Long Bao: This thing is massive! It's incredibly juicy with a clear crab meat flavor. My only gripe is that it felt a little "skinny" on the actual meat filling, I was hoping for a bit more pork and crab inside for the size. * Sticky Rice Dumpling: This was the absolute winner for me. It tasted exactly like the ones you find on the streets of Shanghai. Seriously authentic and a must-order. * Pan Fried Rice Cake: Loved the soy sauce glaze on these. Great texture. * The Classics: We also grabbed the scallion pancake and hot and sour soup. Both were solid additions to the meal. Pro-Tip: Parking Don't stress about the busy lot in front of Sprouts. They actually have reserved parking spots in the back, so it's super convenient. I feel this is a great new spot for a quick dumpling fix in Alhambra. I'll definitely be back for those sticky rice dumplings! read more

Been waiting for Bao Master to open and finally got to try it today. The restaurant is small but clean and modern. Everything we ordered was delicious. They seem to be in a soft opening phase, so the service wasn't quite there yet. We had to ask multiple times for basics like soy sauce, chili oil, and sauce plates; the only thing provided at the table was a bottle of vinegar. That said, the prices are extremely reasonable. The total came out to about $80 after tax and tip for six items, which felt like a great value for the quality. Overall, I'd highly recommend this place. It's officially my new favorite soup dumpling spot in Alhambra! read more
