About

Bao Bar in Point Loma scored 99 out of 100 on its San Diego County health inspection, sitting inside Liberty Public Market at Liberty Station, specializing in steamed Chinese bao buns — pillowy, hand-folded pockets filled with char siu pork, ginger chicken, or marinated tofu. The pan-Asian menu extends to fresh rice-paper spring rolls wrapped to order with shrimp or vegetables, a format that bridges Chinese and Vietnamese technique alongside the bánh mì sandwiches at Bánh Mì Hội An elsewhere in the Point Loma dining corridor. Each bao tops its protein with shredded cabbage, pickled radish, crushed peanuts, cilantro, kale, and house sauce — a layered build that keeps the small-format bun punching above its size. Southeast Asian milk teas — Taiwanese black, Thai, taro, matcha — come with add-on boba, mango popping pearls, and pudding, a bubble-tea program that adds a beverage-destination draw distinct from the craft-beer pour at Stone Brewing World Bistro & Gardens – Liberty Station next door. Roasted-pork rice bowls with side salad round out the menu's most substantial plating, turning a bun-and-boba counter into a full-entrée Liberty Station restaurant stop.
