Bao by Kaya - 570 Lexington

Guter Bao.

Had an amazing experience at Bao by Kaya, the food was appetizing and inexpensive and their boba was super good as well. The customer service was exceptional unlike no other. I do recommend If you’re in the area or visiting outside NYC and are curious to try Taiwanese food, I highly suggest this cozy spot :)

Located inside the Urban Space food hall. At first I was a bit skeptical of the portion-to-price ratio but then I remembered that tacos usually cost the same but these baos are much more filling. The flavor was much better than I was expecting! My favorite was the Peking duck but you might have to get there early to make sure they don’t run out. I will definitely be back!

Friendly and fast service, reasonable price for taiwanese street food dishes

Yummy bao buns and bubble tea

Solid portion size for the price. The pork belly bao was good, but I was hoping for more depth of flavor. It had a basic salty taste. The popcorn chicken was fried amazingly but it didn’t have much seasoning on it. Maybe it’s because it comes with sauce on the side. Overall, I like this spot and would definitely go again if I’m in the area!
