Wow Bao!

They offer four vegan bao--two sweet and two savory. The Lotus Bao and Red Bean Bao are both sweet, but the Lotus is sweeter. The Mushroom Bao was flavorful. I didn't try the Spicy Tofu Bao, but my partner said it was pretty bland. The Cold Noodles were simple, but I enjoyed the pan-seared tofu.

Pros: clearly-marked vegan options, quick service, outdoor seating

Cons: single-use plastic forks and sauce cups

Vegan options, best to ask to confirm!

The restaurant is very small. There weren’t a TON of vegan options, but the ones I had were good! I got the tofu bao bun and the vegan Suan La Fen. It was delicious!

So yummy!

This place has great vegan options! A real treat since vegan bao buns are hard to find. Plus everything was reasonably priced. It was so good that I went multiple times while visiting Portland!

So many vegan options!

Bao Bao evolved from a food truck in downtown Portland to the current brick and mortar restaurant space a few years ago. Since then, their menu has expanded to include dumplings, various noodle dishes, congee, and more. I love visiting this place because the food is consistent, fresh, delicious, and fast. Clearly marked vegan options, and sensible portions. Lots of veggies. Delicious dessert bao (Lotus & Red Bean). Highly recommended!
