Mei Li Wah Bakery has been on my bucket list which recommended by my friends for years and we finally got a chance to try. The decor was humble, outmoded and narrow-spaced. The options on the menu was various and they are authentic Hong Kong style. We had their signature Baked Roast Pork Bun and it was super delicious. The bun was soft and puffy; the filling was flavorful and juicy. It was one of the best Hong Kong style pastries I have ever had in the world and it’s definitely worth a visit.

In my opinion, these are the best pork buns in all of Chinatown and New York City. They’re definitely a great addition to your Christmas traditions. They also offer delicious bread rolls and rice noodle wraps. If you encounter a line, don't worry; it moves quickly. It's well worth the wait. I’ll definitely be returning soon!

Came here for the roasted pork buns we heard they were the best and we were not disappointed. They were absolutely delicious! Everything else was pretty good but the buns were noteworthy. Would one hundred percent recommend stopping in and grabbing a box of those to go.

The baked cha siu bao was amazing!! The steamed big buns (with chicken, cabbage, egg, and pork) and the fried sesame balls were also super delicious. Definitely exceeded my expectation. I feel like you cant go wrong with all the buns here. Book a table now

What we expected, just in a temp location. Short line, no drink. Just order and pick up. The bun was not hot and a little disappointing but for the it was a perfect start. Still a must stop in Chinatown. Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 2

The pork stuffing is incredibly juicy, flavorful, and moist—just perfect! It has the ideal balance of savory and sweet, with the right mix of fat and lean meat. This is hands down the best baked pork bun in all of NYC! Peace!

Absolutely fantastic! Their baked pork buns are incredible! They sell them individually, but you won’t be able to resist taking home a whole box! It's 12 for $16. They only accept cash. You have to check out this place!

baked roast pork buns are the best!!! Get them to go from the counter, they come fresh out of the oven on huge trays. For $1.89 each, they are MORE THAN WORTH IT and the best you can find in Manhattan Book a table now

The pork bun lives up to the hype. Warm, cheap, and most importantly, delicious! The ratio of meat to bread is perfect. I would visit again.
