After touring The Edge during the Urban home tour we stopped in Bao Soup Dumpling for lunch. I have driven by Bao a hundred times but had never noticed it. It's located on walker on the east side of the Edge in the small retail area. You order at the counter, they give you a number and deliver to your table. It casual dining. The food is good. The prices are moderate-high. We ordered dumplings soup, General Tao's Chicken and shrimp and pork wontons. The dumpling soup was very good. General Tao's chicken was OK as were the shrimp and pork duwonton. Bao's is a good place to catch a casual, fast lunch or dinner. read more

Parking is difficult here. They have street parking that is shared with the apartment complex and other neighbor businesses. It is a bit small and due to the front door location they always have a lot of leaves in the main entrance. The staff is ok nice. They'll politely take your order and clean the restaurant. Not particularly visiting tables frequent enough to ask for refills or sauces. The dumplings are addictingly good. They get them very crispy at the bottom and full of flavorful soup on the inside. We say by the window to see people making the dumplings. But it must've been to late at night because the staff wasn't making any at that time. read more

The food was delicious - the dumplings were a little bland but with some chili oil they were perfect. The wontons were the best part! The lemon tea was very strong and delicious. My niece loved the orange chicken! read more

The food never disappoints. Their fried rice is delicious and a must side dish to order with the dumplings in my opinion. We got the black truffle dumplings, pan fried pork, steamed chicken, and chocolate dumplings. It was really cool seeing the chiefs make the dumplings through the kitchen window and servers were attentive. read more

Stopped by Bao with my cousins to share some dumplings, and we all thought it rocked. We had the chicken and beef dumplings, the pan fried pork dumplings, and a side of rice. Everything was fresh and full of flavor. I've only had soup dumplings once before in San Francisco, and these were just as good. We'll definitely be back. :) read more

Ordered their pan-seared Pork Soup Dumplings, they were okay but they weren't as amazing as last time for some reason. I guess it depends on who is in the kitchen. Their new Shrimp & Pork Wonton Soup was pretty good. I will come back to order that again. Several uncleaned tables left by patrons. Not sure why they can't promptly clean them as they were only 1/3 busy and had a full staff. Service is friendly. read more

Adding another review from a recent visit, their black-gold truffle soup dumplings are bomb. Their bento box is also pretty good, but maybe they should add a noodle dish (perhaps they have one and I just didn't see it). Still the best XLB specialty shop in OKC (and maybe only one)! Check it out and recommended! read more

SURPASSED EXPECTATIONS. I would def come back. Probably my favorite dumpling spot now. You do have to ask for ginger. Wings were small and nothing special. Cream cheese wontons could prob use some green onion in them but they were good. THE DUMPLINGS THO?? TOO DAMN GOOD. I didn't even take a pic of the pork soup dumplings cos I gobbled them up. Portions are on the smaller side and the service was lowkey bad BUT the food was too damn flavorful! I'm coming back, had me thinking about dumplings for the rest of the day read more

The soup dumplings here were so delicious I couldn't not give this place five stars. I will point out that the ambiance is a bit jarring compared to the food in the sense that they had equipment like a ladder and cleaning supplies just left out in the dining area.(Random side note but be careful of the sinks in the bathroom, the water pressure is very high and sort of splashes on you). Soda comes in a can and I think next time I will have to try their other refreshments. Why then with these observations did I give this place 5-stars? Because the food was top tier and my mouth waters just thinking about how good their soup dumplings were. The people and the food are 5-stars. The staff was very kind and constantly stopped by to make sure we were enjoying our food and promptly took our dishes away when we were done. The dumplings again- were delicious, filling, and perfect. I know I will be back again! read more

I liked Bao Soup Dumpling when I went to visit this week! We went for lunch and there were plenty of tables open and the restaurant was very quiet and calming. The food was fresh and tasty. It did take a while to get our food but the portions were great and the food tasted pretty good as well so overall we were happy! We didn't try the bao buns this time but we'll be sure to get those next time we come! read more

Wow. Best soup dumpling and biggest I've ever had and I've had many. The variety of soup dumplings is also very impressive: pork, chicken, beef, shrimp&cheese, crab, black truffle just to name a few. What pairs very well with the XLB is the cucumber salad. Chopped finely and well seasoned, they were so crunchy and flavorful. So refreshing. read more

My husband and I split the wings, pork soup dumplings and beef soup dumplings. Both dumpling options were steamed. The wings came out first. The dry rub to coat the wings in was delicious. Unfortunately I would not recommend buying the wings because they were the tiniest things I have ever seen! Then the pork soup dumplings came out next. They were really delicious. We ate both items and then sat there for quite some time before the beef soup dumplings came out. They were good but we preferred the pork. The service was friendly but it really appeared as though one woman did almost everything at the front of the house. Sometimes another person would come clear a table but that was it. The main woman delivered food, brought drinks, and refilled drinks all while taking orders at the counter. Not sure why but the space seems loud. I would try again but probably to go. read more

I've had this spot bookmarked for a while, and I'm so glad my friends and I finally got to try it. Their soup dumplings are honestly some of the best I've ever had. We ordered the pork, beef, crab & pork soup dumplings, and also the pan-fried pork version, my friends especially loved the pan-fried ones. I enjoyed it so much that I went back the next day for takeout and tried the chicken and pork soup dumplings, along with their fried rice. Everything was a solid 10/10. Also, their chili sauce is amazing, super spicy, but we loved mixing it with a bit of soy sauce and vinegar for the perfect kick. read more

Service was better the second time we visited, since the staff were more attentive.  They probably have the juiciest soup dumplings compared to others. And the meat fillings were indeed flavorful. The dumplings tasted very fresh. I did notice that the pan-fried beef soup dumplings were juicier than the pork dumplings. The dumplings do stick to the paper so it requires a light hand to pick them up.  Their hot wings were great. But it's not spicy though, the dipping sauce was sweet, almost similar to ketchup.   Now that I have come here twice, I'm not sure it is my kind of place for dinner, but if we need something light we probably stop by. read more

Brand new soup dumpling place in OKC. The servings are about 6 per portion, which is about average. I'd recommend getting two different types if you're hungry. There's a window on the side of the restaurant where you can look in and see the chefs making the dumplings. When we got there, it was pretty busy and fairly long line, but they were good about getting our food fairly quickly . We got the crab and pork as well as the pork and the beef. Honestly, you can't go wrong with any of them. I would recommend using the chili sauce on the table. So good. Parking : across the street in a small parking lot. read more

Good bye to Mi Xian and say hello to Bao Soup Dumpling, which is a welcoming scene for all foodies. This restaurant specializes in soup dumplings which are "steamed dumplings made with a thin dough wrapper, a seasoned broth, and a juicy meat filling. The broth is gelatinous at room temperature, but melts when steamed, creating a packet of hot soup and meat." An order comes with 6 soup dumplings, costing $10.99-$13.99. The pork soup dumplings were delicious. Although they can be a main course, I would recommend getting more than one orders for one person. One order won't be able to make you full. There is a guide on how to eat soup dumplings. I would just ignore it. They were not too big or super hot. I just put the whole soup dumpling in my mouth. This restaurant is quite trendy. The service was excellent and the staffs seemed to enjoy their works. I love watching the kitchen staffs working on the soup dumplings. read more

The food is pretty good. The pan fried dumplings were a hit for both my husband and I. He really liked the chicken soup dumplings, but I could have done without. There's a lot of flavor in them both. The cream cheese angels taste fresh, but would have benefited from a little crab. This is unfortunately somewhere you pay $2 for a can of soda. It is an order at the counter and choose your seat style restaurant. Despite this, the folks working are very friendly and checked on us several times. They were kind and attentive. We really appreciated them. The ambiance is lacking. The yelp listing describes it as "cozy" and I think that's a far stretch of the imagination. It could be greatly improved with some decor, sound dampening, and background music. The space echoes and seems empty. read more

A fun experience! My husband LOVED it, I liked it. He likes Asian soups and dumplings better than I do in general - so if you're a big fan of those, you'll love this. We got take out: beef soup dumplings, pork soup dumplings, cream cheese angels, the chocolate dessert dumplings, and the pineapple passionfruit iced tea. The beef and pork dumplings had good flavor and the broth inside both were tasty. And 6 seemed like a good amount. The cream cheese angles were my favorite. The chocolate dumplings were very fun. The tea was good, though pretty sweet. We ended up steaming the dumplings to head them up. Pro-tip: grease whatever you are setting the dumpling on! The food was novel and fun - a great thing to try with friends. The restaurant environment was clean and modern. Service was prompt and straightforward (I called in the order since yelp didn't work). read more

Came to OKC this weekend, just happened to see this place while driving around and I am so glad we stopped and checked it out! Everything was SO good! We ordered the cream cheese angels (cream cheese rangoons), the calamari, the crab/pork steamed buns, the beef pan fried buns, and the pork pan fried buns. Everything was perfect! Cane out in a timely manner and was super fresh and hot! If I'm ever back up there I will definitely be stopping again! read more

Bao Soup Dumpling - Shrimp & cheese soup dumplings - Soup Near Me - Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

It was ok. We came during a lunch rush and the place was packed. Kinda difficult to find parking and seating. We ordered multiple menu items. Regular beef soup dumplings were good. We got the cheese angels and the filling was creamy and sweet. We tried the pork soup dumplings and the truffle dumplings. All were tasty! The dumplings I didn't care for were the pan fried. They were greasy from the oil they were fried in to create the flour crust and edges tasted burnt imo. Maybe that's how they're supposed to be? But I wasn't a fan. There's a window where you can see the staff making the dumplings which is cool! Glad to have this as an option in OKC. read more

I posted on google, but this place is so good that I had to post a review here too! If I could give it 10 stars, I would! Everything was amazing! From the service, the food, to the atmosphere. If I could give 10 stars, I would! We were greeted the second we walked in the door. The service the entire time was phenomenal! They explained the menu and gave us tons of great recommendations. Every item we tried on the menu was delicious and flavorful. I loved that you could see them making everything as well. We found out that not only are the dumplings made in house, but so is the chili oil and condensed milk(for the golden mini buns). The manager was so sweet and checking in us during our meal to make sure everything was good and of course everything looked and tasted better than we could have imagined. Our visit here was a day to remember and we will definitely be back! read more

So I had no idea what the concept of a soup dumpling actually was. I thought soup + dumpling but separate. What a nice surprise! Unless you have an extra large mouth I would not advise the whole bit method. The soup is either going to shoot out of your mouth or down your throat. Both happened at the same time to my friend and I. We were trying not to laugh as she's cleaning her shirt and I was choking. Nibble and spoon method is the way to go! Cream cheese angels...crispy and flavorful. Crab and pork...more pork than crab but still delicious Shrimp and cheese...I drool. I crave. I dream. Must have more!! I'll probably go again today! read more

We went back to this restaurant and gave them a second chance. I haven't seen any bugs during the entire time and the restaurant is really clean. They clean the tables very fast between customers.

The food is really good, though the restaurant itself is weird. It has more of a boba shop vibe--the whole place is run by teenagers on their phones ( very nice ones, mind you!) and the decoration is strange. There are a lot of chipped glasses and plates. But great causal bites! read more

What I like -the soup dumplings, fried or non-fried was very delicious probably the best in the city -You get a number whenever order they bring you your food which I like because it is faster than waiting on a waiter. -the inside was clean and had all the things you needed. -Simple menu so quality should stay the same. Hopefully they don't add more items like Empire dim sum and ruined the fresh quality that they had. What needs improvement -take a little more pride in your cucumber salad that was just cucumber with the sauce over it and not even cut well for $7 dollars -You need to change out your sinks in the restroom because I can only use one hand at a time to wash my hand because you're stupid sensor so far away. -a second cashier when you're busy will be ideal as well and make sure you have change to give when someone's paying cash. I like this place a lot but a few things can be better. I will bring family back for some delicious soup dumplings. read more

Bao Soup Dumplings- Walker/Midtown area Tried this place today. If you love soup dumplings this place is for you. The dumplings were juicy and hot. The little steamers have pictures on them so you know which dumpling you're eating. We tried all the flavors. Pork Beef Shrimp and crab Shrimp and cheese Pan fried pork Chicken My favorite one was the pan fried pork soup dumplings. The pineapple tea was a good palate cleaner. The chili oil was full of flavor. The place is spacious and plenty of seating. Parking is limited in front of store. We parked across the street and walked over. Service is a bit slow so be prepared to wait. read more

Our favorite was the crab & pork dumplings; the soup was delicious and it was a real crab filling too! Just these three items had us very full.

Food is great- every time we go there's 1 of 2 girls with 0 cares in the world for customers that take your order. Their wait staff or at least the people taking the orders should prolly not talk to customers. Tables are usually never cleared or cleaned , so if there's more than 3 people in there , you may not be able to sit bc they don't clear tables quickly after previous customers . read more

A shop dedicated to serving soup dumplings already had me sold. Then the follow through and slam dunk on the quality was a big win. They make everything in-house daily, including their chile sauce. They have a variety of dumpling options and everything comes out piping hot and ready to enjoy. The staff were super friendly and chatty, which was cool. I can't wait to come back and fill up on yummy dumplings. read more

Ive been coming since they opened, Food is good. cant say great due to their specialty being dumplings. Service can be better, most of the time i cant hear them when they place food down & it's usually placed on the opposite side instead near me which can play part on why I can't hear them. Ambiance is loud, rare when quiet unless it's early in the day. If you have a kid or yourself with sensory overload I recommend sticking to dumplings & sitting in the back of the room. read more
