The fillings
Julius M.

I saw this spot on IG and, being a huge bao lover, I knew I had to give it a try. ​The highlights were definitely the dumplings and buns. We ordered the mixed dumplings and the 6-piece King Steam Meat Bao--both were awesome. The dumplings had nice thin skin and were very flavorful, and the bao tasted great with plenty of meat and vegetable filling. We also tried the 10 Won bread with cheese and chocolate filling. It had that perfect mochi texture, and my wife and son loved it. ​The only downside was the spicy beef soup. It costs $20 and unfortunately, it was extremely bland. However, the service made up for it. The staff was friendly, and when I asked for a to-go soup cup (which usually costs 50 cents), the server gave it to us on the house. I'd definitely come back for the bao and dumplings!

10 Won Bread w/ Custard Filling ($5 - sliced open)
Ian A.

I ordered the King Steamed Meat Bao ($9.14 - 3pc) and 10 Won Bread ($5). They tasted fresh and filling. Although these items did not taste spectacular, there's an admirable beauty with its satisfying texture and freshness. I arrived at Cr8zy Bao (West Covina) on Tuesday (around 9:15AM). This location requested 10 extra minutes to setup. After perusing its adjacent market, I returned. Cr8zy Bao (West Covina) was ready for business at 9:25AM. Staff is courteous and professional. Staff (name on receipt - Yaya) is helpful and hardworking. Yaya answered all my questions, and Yaya moved quickly. I ordered the King Steamed Meat Bao ($9.14 - 3pc) and 10 Won Bread ($5). The food was ready in 14 minutes and 54 seconds. The 10 Won Bread has three filling choices: mozzarella cheese, custard, or red bean. I selected the custard filling. The 10 Won Bread had a thin, crisp, and crunchy outer crust; its similar to a finely toasted waffle. Its inner layer is very soft and spongey. Breaking apart this toasted pastry, hot & gooey custard cream bursts forward. I enjoyed the sensation and mild-sweetness of this sticky, flowing liquid. The King Steamed Meat Bao also tasted freshly made. It avoids being dry; rather, its bun is supple, buoyant, and springy. Its filling tastes fresh and slightly savory. Its mashed meat and diced glass noodles add a pleasant bounce. Although the filling lacked any memorable taste, I appreciated how the filling wasn't salty. The King Steamed Meat Bao's filling reminded me of freshly mashed meatball. Regarding ambiance, it's nonexistent at Cr8zy Bao (West Covina). The location is a food stand in a market. Thankfully, its counters and floors are clean. Also, I felt safe since a security guard is stationed by the entrance. Fortunately, there's plenty of indoor and outdoor tables to use since it's connected to the Haven City Market. Bright, bubbly music appeared around 10AM; however, it was silent prior. Overall, Cr8zy Bao (West Covina) is a good experience. If you like baos and dumplings, this location is a solid choice. The portions are filling; the food is fresh; and its cooks put visible care into their items. 4.5 out of 5

3. King Sweet Red Bean Bao
Cristine G.

1K review is for one of my favorite K food places It is one of the many food stalls in the Haven City Market building but closer to the GW grocery entrance. I love their steamed red bean and meat baos. The red bean bun was one of the best I have tasted. Their dumplings were good too. I couldn't wait till the weather cooled down, so I braved the hot summer and ordered the beef rib soup. It was the best and worst decision I made. The best because the beef was tender and the soup so flavorful. It was served steaming in a hot stone bowl. Thus the worst decision as I was sweating like crazy. Luckily I had my cordless fan to the rescue. The meal came with a bowl of rice, and banchan (mini side dishes). I'd definitely go back to try their cold noodle soup. Service was friendly. Cafeteria-style seating is available. Parking can be tricky during rush hour, especially weekends.

Food: Spicy Sauce Cold Noodles was not too spicy and nice chewy noodles; Kimchi Dumplings were also tasty and not too spicy Service: friendly and made-to-order service Design: shop is located inside the GW Supermarket; nice large screen graphics Overall: if you want good Korean noodles, soups, dumplings and baos, then check out this place

Meat bun

Super excited to have crazy bao opening up near home! It's located the entrance of the supermarket and toward the back of the haven city market. The place is mainly for take out as everything they have is either pre made or in take out containers. We got the meat and chive bun and red bean bun. The buns are good and they give you a lot of filling which is a plus! Service is a hit and miss. When we arrived there weren't anyone at the counter and it took a while for them to take our orders. When the orders are done the little pager they gave us didn't buzz and we had to go and ask if that is our order on the front counter.

Inside of Pizza Bao
Bella S.

Cr8zy bao sure has a unique store name that I just adore. It's located inside the GW supermarket rather than part of the Haven City Market. I have only tried the 10 won coin cheese filling bread and the pizza bao. I am giving them an extra star because of the uniqueness of these items. 1. 10 won coin bread with cheese filling (5/5) You can choose either cheese or custard. We opted for the cheese filling and it was super cheesy with a good cheese-pull. The outside was light, yet crispy and the inside is just a delicious, melty, gooey cheese. The cheese has a good cheesy flavor. 2. Pizza Bao (4.5/5) It doesn't really taste 100% like pizza, but it does have notes of margherita pizza flavoring mixed with the texture of the traditional beef bao. The bun itself was nice and fluffy. The filling I believe is pork meat with tomato sauce, green onions and glass noddles. Overall, not bad and worth a try.

The #1 King Steamed Meat Bao was delicious. Each bao was stuffed with a tasty mix of meat, veggies, and glass noodles. The filling was juicy, well-seasoned, and really close to the northern Chinese bao flavor. They're big too! three were more than enough to fill me up. The food stall is tucked inside GW Supermarket in West Covina, right next to Haven City. It's more of a grab-and-go spot than a sit-down place, you probably can carry it and eat in heaven city area , I assume ? The staff was friendly and fast, and my order came out hot and fresh. A hidden gem for sure.

Menu 2 as of 2/16/25

Another new place opened in Haven City Marketplace inside GW. These are bao's with Korean/Chinese influence. Since it was new, I had to give it a try. I wanted to order the Cr8zy Spicy Dumplings but they said that was the one item on the menu they don't have yet. Ordered the Cheese Meat Bao (it was okay, just a bit of mozzarella cheese on top, with glass noodles mixed with meats inside). Since they didn't have their Cr8zy Spicy Dumplings, I tried their Spicy Shrimp Dumpling (it reminded me of the Chinese dimsum). As I was done ordering, I noticed the workers were cutting up pinwheel pastries. I didn't see them on the menu, but that's when I realized there was a separate menu for a bunch of different Korean soups. I got the red bean version of the won bread (they said there was also a mozzarella cheese version). It had a nice mochi texture with the red bean filling. Overall, the food was meh. The bun was fresh but the fillings of the dumplings/bao's were just okay. The only item I'd come back for is the pinwheel dessert, it brings back wonderful memories of ordering those outside a supermarket made by Chinese elderly ladies.

Located inside GW market. They had a soft opening and they were giving out a sample and we tried number 1 and their red bean bao. We ended up ordering the king steamed bao and red bean bao. My husband also tried their pizza bao it was okay, not a huge fan. The king steamed bao was filled with great flavors and i liked that i had noodles inside. The red bean bao had the perfect amount of filling and mid sweetness to it. I liked it very much. Service was fantastic very friendly.

Cr8zy Bao is located right by the entrance to the GW Market. I imagine people grab their stuff on the go.

We were meeting some friends at Haven City, so we thought to stop by to check out all the restaurants. We ended up at Cr8zy Bao because it was a pretty cold day and we were craving some good ol' Korean comfort food. Cr8zy Bao fit the bill to a T (and of course, I also wanted to compare to the Diamond Bar location). Breakdown below: Ambiance (5/5): I mean...this location is awesome. It's right next to the market so I can grab my Chinese goods right before heading out, and I love that there's plenty of seating (some right next to the restaurant too for a quick chow down). This is a huge plus compared to the DB grab n' go location. Let's not forget all the places to walk around and hang/eat with people at the benches outside too; it's like a perfect and simple family or date night. Service (5/5): The ladies and young man at the front were kind and efficient. Food came out quick, and I'd like to give a major shout-out to the young man who helped pull back some gate thing between the market and restaurants to let me and my stroller through that day. Support these hardworking and nice human beings! Food (5/5): Compared to the DB location, this one had food that was just as good, granted we ordered soup dishes and a few sides to share. We started off with a bit of tteokbokki as an appetizer, and it was perfectly chewy with a nice kick to it. It just got better from there. We ordered the braised chicken and it was melt-in-your-mouth deliciousness. I absolutely loved the thick sauce and how it coated the noodles, potatoes, and chicken; the dish seemed to taste better and stronger in flavor as we all sat there chatting and eating. My one year-old was eating everything really well, as was my two year old, so the non-spicy version of this chicken was a hit (I bet the spicy one is even tastier). The dumpling and rice cake soup was a nice addition to the braised chicken, as it helped clean the palate a little and of course, the dumplings were full of flavor and devoured by my son. My oldie favorite, the spicy shrimp dumplings, did not disappoint; we could have taken them home, but our party just ate it all on the spot. Next time, I'll have to try some of their desserts! Overall, it was a great first visit to this location and I know we'll be back!

Just literally went here for this thinking it was like the street ones they sell in Japan. It's not, it was okay.

yummmm! I'm glad that there's a korean comfort foods inside Haven City / GW Supermarket. It was slightly rainy on Sunday so why not soup for dinner. We found out that Cr8zy Bao is newly opened in West Covina, so we don't have to go all way to Diamond Bar. They serve mostly Korean comfort soup , hot stone pot rice and differents types of mandu / bao. They also added the 10 Won Bread. They even offered us a sample of their popular pork / chive bao. it was steamy hot and delicious. We ordered the Galbi Tang, Pork & chives mandu and the 10 won bread with red bean mochi filling. The first thing I tried when we got our order. I've seen it all over my ig feed and super excited to try it. So much mochi and the red beans filling. If you like red bean. Should give it try! The Galbi Tang Soup served in very hot temperature. Portion is good for 2 people if sharing. comes with at lease 4 piece of the beef ribs with glass noodle, jujube and green onions. not too greasy. Pork & chives mandu is my favorite, I love chives. The mandu tasted very good and not too salty or blend. Very good with the dipping sauce. The meal comes with rice and 3 different banchan, kimchi, bean sprouts, fish cake. It is located on the GW Supermarket side next to BaoShuTang and Sisig LA. you will receive a beeper after placing your order. Love the simple and clean vibe.

I mainly came here mainly for the 10 won bread. I tried once at a street vendor and couldn't find an establishment until now. They offer cheese or red bean filling. One order is $5 and four is $18. I only got two and got each flavor. I like the cheese filling more and i enjoyed the slight crunchy texture of the waffle coin. It is made to order and is about a 10 minute wait. The storefront faces the supermarket, so walk a few aisles and soon will be ready. They also hand you a beeper that will notify you when your order is ready. I would return again next time for the coin bread and maybe try the ready made grab and go item items on the fridge display.

TLDR: Amazing lunch prices at an above average taste profile. $13 per entree with free rice is hard…read moreto find, and I'm very satisfied with this place. Egg Drop Soup (Free): It's boiled water, egg, and cornstarch. Idk if they even salted it. They might have. It doesn't matter, it's free. They took it away before we could finish the pot. Peking Style Pork Chop: It's good. I will gladly spend $13 for this. You get the signature sauce that's sweet, salty, and just generally good. I can recommend this 100%. Curry Beef Stew: Another above average option for the price point. Not too spicy, tender beef brisket, at a respectable portion size. No complaints from my end. Seafood Tofu: The worst of the bunch. Bland tofu, bland seafood, and the sauce didn't really do anything. I'd skip this. Ambiance: Starter Chinese restaurant trying to be serious. Tablecloth, tables that seat 4-8, at a decent size. Service: It's a Chinese restaurant, expect nothing, and you won't be disappointed.

Stopped by with my family for my brothers birthday. We were sat towards the back and noticed…read moreseveral sodas already on the table. After we started to skim the menu, I noticed that most of the menu items did not have pricing information clearly displayed. Since we were a large party, we decided to order the dinner package. At least that had a pricing displayed. Once the food arrived, it was extremely bland. Not only that but this was the most I've paid for mid-tier Chinese food in a while. Since when did Chinese food get so pricey? Pan fried noodles were ok, walnut shrimp was good, pork chops were decent but everything else was mid! Oh and those sodas are about $7,xx bux each so stick to hot tea. Also, they wrote in a suggested tip amount and underlined 16% but probably charged the 18%. It's also calculated after tax. It's supposed to be calculated based on pre-tax. I didn't want to fuss over the bill while the server stood over me. This will probably be the last time I step foot in this place. Not worth the price point at all.

I was greeted warmly and I ordered two 3 item combos: Chow mien, orange chicken, mushroom chicken, and pork stew White rice, teriyaki chicken, chicken and potato stew, and salt and pepper chicken. My favorite was teriyaki chicken and salt and pepper chicken. Everything was good honestly, I didn't have anything bad to say other than the containers will leak through into the bag and you will get sauce on the napkins, utensils, and sauce packets. For the price, it was $30 plus drink and can definitely satiate 4-6 people. They have a tip jar and since I paid cash, I forgot to tip but will go back and make sure I tip! The server is really nice, we chatted a little and she is very sweet. Apparently my bf knows about the place and the owners years ago so next time I'll bring him to try it now!

We had ordered Thai iced tea, the beef chow fun, potstickers, bbq pork appetizer, and the string bean chicken. Here's a breakdown of what I thought of each of the dishes: - You can never go wrong with a Thai Iced tea. This hit the spot, was refreshing, and was the perfect thing to sip on whilst waiting for our food. - The potstickers were okay. They were definitely lacking a dipping sauce, which I think would've balanced the dish out perfectly! - I really enjoyed the bbq pork! It was slightly on the dry side, but I didn't mind. (I tend to like meat on the dryer side for some odd reason). I think this dish, with a side of fried of rice would be spectacular together! - The Beef Chow Fun was my favorite of the items we ordered. The noodles & accoutrements were seasoned beautifully and the beef was tender and delicious. - The string bean chicken was also yummy! The string beans were cooked to perfection! However, my only critique of this dish is that there was not enough chicken and the chicken bits were a tad smaller than I had expected them to be. I definitely want to come back here and try more of the menu items! I'm eyeing the braised beef noodle soup, the pan fried noodles, the orange chicken, and the spare ribs for next time... YUMMY! Overall, what's not to love about Canaan Chinese Cuisine? The food is DELICIOUS, the portions are large, the location is great, and the overall experience is fantastic! I highly recommend this spot to any folks that are in the area looking for a solid Chinese/Taiwanese foodie experience!

I should've taken this gesture immediately as an unwillingness to seating us. I responded with no, party for 2, and another lady comes running over and says "but we close at 9" in which I responded, I'm well aware, but can we still order? they both responded with yes so i said okay can we seat? in which she responded with again, "but we close at 9." really not sure what's up with the people running this restaurant, but if you don't want the business or if you just want to close earlier, then do that. there are plenty of sichuan places in the SGV (and quite honestly probably better tasting) than this place. take your business elsewhere. PS - also seeing recent yelp reviews about trending terrible service, please just run from this place. if they don't want your business, don't force your time and money down their throats. i'm not interested in eating bloody chicken anyways.
