I absolutely olutely love baos, and as someone who eats vegan, they can be surprisingly hard to find--so I was thrilled to discover vegan options here! We tried the spicy tofu bao, which featured a generous tofu patty. While I appreciated the portion size, I felt the ratio of sauce to tofu could be adjusted for more flavor balance. A bit more sauce throughout would really enhance the dish and bring out the spiciness. Service - The staff was warm and prompt, which made the experience even better. Ambiance - Very contemporary and upbeat! It's a happy, welcoming space that I really enjoyed

Great dumplings and bao. I really loved the brisket filling and the pork filling. You'll also love the hot chicken option but it comes with way too much cabbage. There are even multi vegetarian options. This is a great filling option at any time of day. There's not much of line because most folks choose other nearby options. Lucky you, this is one of the best food options in Mueller.

Delicious bao buns! Employees were very friendly as we came during closing. Very happy with the kindness and quality of the staff. Food was good and price was great. Definitely come back for a good fair priced meal!

We got the pork dumplings and got one vegetarian dumpling! I wasn’t the biggest fan of the vegetarian, but the pork ones were great!

My husband and I visited this past weekend. We ordered two Brown Sugar Bobas, one order of their Crispy Chicken Tacos, and one Egg Custard Bao. Everything was delicious. The boba drinks were very good and a great size. The crispy chicken tacos were a decent size and very tasty. Lastly, the egg custard bao was very good and not overly sweet which was nice. We went on a Sunday afternoon and it was pretty busy. They have a good amount of seating but with how busy it was we didn’t get a table immediately but, some people left right before our food came out which worked out well.

Fast comfort Asian food. Get a four pack for decent deal. Spicy Brisket, Juicy Pork, Pork Belly and Crispy Chicken were our choices. They were good enough we got the same four twice. The soup dumplings were a little small but decent for fast food. The counter service was helpful and patient. We ate there so they were nice and hot.

Convenient spot for healthy options in plates or bowls. I had the hot honey chicken. It satisfied. I like the list of food suppliers on the wall. 👍🏼

We came here for dinner and ordered the crispy chicken taco, crispy chicken basket, and custard baos. Since we were really hungry, these filled us up. Beware that the pictures on the menu make the items look much smaller than they actually are. So portion sizes are pretty good. The crispy chicken tacos were good, but I wish they came with a sauce to add extra flavor. The crispy chicken basket had a generous portion, and my husband really enjoyed it. Unfortunately, I wouldn't recommend the custard baos--they were very plain and lacked flavor. I was expecting something more dessert-like. Overall, I'd still recommend this place for when you are super hungry and need food fast. The food was good, the service was good, and they have a few tables inside for seating.

This spot is all about bowls with healthy options. The amount they give you in each bowl is just right, enough to fill you up and feel satisfied without being too much or too little. The service is decent, and since it's rarely crowded, you get served quickly without long waits. You can also order your food online and pick it up, which is convenient. The downside is the place itself - it's kinda dull and gloomy, not really a lively atmosphere. I'd recommend grabbing your order and eating somewhere else to enjoy your meal more.

I dined in yesterday, and it was a little pricey($18) for my bowl but everything was fresh, nice portion size and delicious. Today at work we ordered Sweetgreens from Mueller via Grub Hub and we were extremely disappointed. Maybe due to the large order(11 bowls), but it looked like everything was quickly thrown together without consideration of portion size or presentation. The picture of the bowl shown has not been touch. Due to to the premium ingredients of goat cheese and avocado this bowl was slightly more than yesterday at $20!

This dumpling shop is the kind of place that proves steamed buns can be a spiritual experience, especially when you're holding one of those juicy pork baos that somehow manages to be both pillowy soft and exploding-with-flavor in every single bite. Then there’s the spicy brisket bao, a glorious mash-up of tender, smoky beef and just the right amount of kick that makes you go “oh yes, that’s what lunch should do.” Each bao arrives warm and inviting like it’s personally cheering you on, and by the time you get to the last bite you’ll be whispering affirmations like “you were worth it” even if there’s a little pork juice on your shirt. The vibe is fun and unfussy, the staff is friendly, and you’ll leave feeling full, content, and already eyeing the menu wondering which bao deserves to be your next obsession.

We were dine in but they were swamped with take out orders and we waited our food for a while. Not authentic Chinese food to be clear and everything tasted bland. The meat they used for fillings are not in good quality. If you want to try it just order a pick up there’s no service at all.

Decent spot for commercial grade dumplings and Bao’s. I’d say it’s worth a stop if you have a craving or just need a dumpling/bao fix. We didn’t order soup dumplings cause that looked kind of wack. I wouldn’t necessarily tell a friend or family, especially if they’re Asian, to come here unfortunately. So if you’re expecting some top notch dumplings, I’d still skip. But if you’re just looking to casually grab a bite, this is worth a visit.

The food was underwhelming and warm. Pork belly didn't taste good, compared to many other spots in Austin. The filling portions in the bao were on the light side. The tables were dirty. It's very unlikely we'll return.

Danielle Walker

The staff were helpful and friendly. The food was OK, nothing to write home about. We tried the veggie, pulled pork, chicken, and some other bao I can't recall. It just tasted a little bland, and the chicken bao barely had anything in it, just 3 tiny pieces of chicken. We tried the Thai tea with boba as well, and the boba was really tasty. The drink itself tasted too milky compared to other Thai teas I've had. It was so pale.

TLDR: The food is good. The dining experience was ok. My family of 5 visited this plaice for the first time. Like we often do for a first time visit, we ordered several menu items to give them all a try. The highlights of the experience were definitely the spicy brisket bun and the soup dumplings m. If you go, ordering these items is a requirement. The lowlights are as follows. - Upon our arrival, we were directed by the staff to the kiosk to place our order. There were no pleasantries exchanged. - The water machine was broken. The ice machine was empty. People on staff didn’t seem to mind either of these issues. We tried to alert them to this, but it’s hard when the employees don’t engage with you. - A bottled 20oz coke will cost you close to $4, which is ridiculous. Overall the experience wasn’t horrible. We’ll be back base on the merits of the food alone. Hopefully they tighten up the ship a little and I can upgrade them to a 4 or 5 star review.

Tried the new Omega bowl, the salmon piece I got was so small (nothing like photo on the app). Not worth $18. Also service was sub par. Should’ve gone to Honest Mary’s right next door

I come to this sweetgreen all the time as I work nearby. Today I had an unfortunate experience. I had ordered online, picked up my food and walked back to work. When I opened it I realized they didn’t give me chicken I was supposed to get and put sweet potatoes instead which I didn’t ask for. I walked back and showed them the order. She took my plate back which I find unsanitary to begin with. But then picked up the sweet potatoes from my plate and put them back in the serving tray on the line. Then plopped the chicken on top and gave it back. I think it should’ve been remade for food safety reasons and considering it contained an ingredient I didn’t ask for. I’ve worked food service and I know this is not how it should’ve been handled. I’m not one to complain but that was very concerning to see and I feel people should know about this since it is a health safety concern. I come here a lot and usually don’t have a problem other than staff being kind of short and sometimes rude with me.

Ordered the pork soup dumplings, milk tea with boba, and fried chicken guabao. We were originally given uncooked soup dumplings. Quite off putting to bite into the raw pork. I understand mistakes happen, but we received minimal apology from the staff. Once we got the new soup dumplings, they were just okay. Fried chicken guabao was also okay. Milk tea was probably the only thing I would consider ordering again.

Mason Jenkins

Zero service. Seems like more of a ghost kitchen type vibe. Not really welcoming but whatever. Food is mid at best. The Bao is 90% thick dough, 10% mediocre filling. Did not taste fresh in the slightest. Not worth it unless you're really, really craving Bao and in the area.

Emily Knight

The milk tea is fine, standard, but I ordered pork belly at 8:30 on a Sunday and it was inedible. Total rubber, too much sauce, buns were somehow hot on one side and cold on the other. disgusting.

Most of the food was cold besides the rice and the dumplings. The chicken dumplings taste like the chicken comes out of a can. Even the fried chicken was cold. The only thing I ate out of my whole order was my steamed chicken potstickers. I spend $62 and what a complete waste to only eat $6 worth of the food. I won’t not recommend.

The food was as bland as a 2 year old would like it!!! I went with my teens and husband, and not one of us were happy with the quality, flavor, and textures of the food. Being an Asian American woman, maybe my standards are just too high for good quality Bao, Buns, Soup Dumplings, and Ramen. I expected so much better, I've had so much better. Just over $100 for the following. It's not worth a single penny.... everything is frozen and thrown into a steamer. Not one fresh bao, and this is so disappointing, especially for this to be your specialty! Juicy Pork Bao: Bland and mushy towards the inside. Terriayki Bao: Slight sweet flavor but again overall bland and mushy inside. The texture was off-putting, to say the least. Crispy Chicken Bun: The chicken was cooked well but flavorless along with the coleslaw. Soup Dumpings: The filling and soup again had no flavor! Ramen: This left so much to be desired! Everything was completely flavorless. The only good thing was that the noodles were not overcooked. Fries: My teens actually said that the Fries were the only decent thing and only because they liked the with them with the slightly spiced dipping sauce. These are just your frozen crinkle cut fries. Don't waste your time or money stopping here. The service was mediocre at best. Also, the water dispenser was as slow as molasses... WTH! 🤦🏻‍♀️

My partner and I used to eat here all the time. We loved the food and had tried everything on the menu. The last time we ate here we both got food poisoning even though we didn’t eat the same thing. I wrote them to let them know and never heard even an apology. So we don’t eat here anymore. It’s not worth the food poisoning.

Just came here for the first time since I’ve been wanting to try their salads. I did a create your own salad and it came out to almost $30 for one salad! I was charged additional for everything added while some toppings like mushrooms is the cost of chicken because it’s “protein” I would have left this salad there but I didn’t want to feel bad and waste the time of the person who made it even though he face off a very nonchalant attitude….. then to learn that there’s a limited season special salad on the website for $15 that is the exact way I made my salad. Yes I probably should have done a little due diligence on my end to fully explore the menus and offerings…. But would have been nice if the employee caught that and made the suggestion to a patronized customer. Guess every dollar counts towards him getting a raise. Go figure.

The menu in the store doesn't actually tell you prices. It tells you a range. So the cost is just a surprise at the end. The staff didn't know how much certain protein choices would cost, and there was literally no way to know. I guess they only want rich people eating here? Unbelievable.

Quality of the food has significantly gone downhill. Let’s face it - we return to restaurants for the food / quality of ingredients - NOT just the service & the atmosphere. I won’t be returning anytime soon. They used to have many ORGANIC option of the toppings etc , now there’s barely anything organic.

I usually don’t write reviews unless I’ve had either an amazing experience or a truly miserable one. Unfortunately, this visit was the latter. When I arrived, there was one person ahead of me being helped by a woman who was patient and compassionate. As I waited, the man prepping in the back came up to assist me. The moment he approached, he said “What you want,” in an uninterested, dismissive tone. I brushed it off at first, but things only went downhill as I started building my bowl. I was completely disregarded in terms of patience and customer service, even though I was ordering two bowls—one for myself and one for my partner, as I often do. After choosing my base, we moved on to toppings, where I felt rushed through every selection. We couldn’t move forward because the customer ahead of me was still choosing their toppings, yet he kept pushing me to list everything I wanted, even though we hadn’t reached the other stations. I asked that we complete one bowl at a time to avoid confusion and cross-contamination. Throughout the entire interaction, his impatience and rude tone made me genuinely want to walk out and abandon my order. Once I was passed off to the woman who had been assisting the previous customer, the experience immediately shifted back to the level of service I normally expect from Sweetgreen. As a loyal customer for years, this visit was incredibly disappointing and left me with a genuinely miserable impression.

Lol this place is sad! I don’t really review places unless it’s amazing or the opposite. This place is definitely the opposite. Don’t know what happened but the last few months this location has gone to trash. I’d rather eat out of the trash than eat here. Don’t know who’s managing it but it seems to be run by a bunch of children who think they are so cool! I overheard them making fun of a customer with a nut allergy saying some very gross things. Won't go into details but I’m sure you can imagine. What happened to the older guy who was managing before? He actually seemed to care about this business. I’ll be going somewhere else from now on.
