Mei Li Wah - City of New York

One of our favorite spots for Chinatown comfort food.

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

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.

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.
