Baohaus Competitors

Wow Bao is an innovative, small footprint restaurant that operates in the high-growth Asian fast casual segment. Based in Chicago, Wow Bao’s menu focuses on hot asian steamed buns, potstickers, and rice & noodle bowls. In early 2020, Wow Bao launched their Dark Kitchen Initiative and partnered with restaurants across the country to steam their signature menu items and deliver them via 3rd Party Services. Since then, Wow Bao has successfully launched more than 550 “Dark Kitchens” in 85+ cities, on a path to open 1000 locations.

Xi’an Famous Foods began as a 200 square foot basement stall in the Golden Shopping Mall in Flushing, N.Y. The original location, established in late 2005, was the first restaurant to bring the little-known cuisine of Xi’an to the United States, with signature hand-ripped noodles, secret spice mixes, and Xi’an “burgers” with housemade flatbread. Since then, we’ve expanded to six locations in Manhattan, two in Brooklyn and two in Queens in total. As a family-owned business, we hope to reintroduce the world to the unique cuisine of our hometown: liangpi “cold skin” noodles, lamb pao mo soup, and wide hand-pulled “biang biang” noodles, all in its most authentic form.

Asian Box is more than a fast casual concept; we are a lifestyle brand focused on convenience, personalization and empowerment through giving our customers the choice of an array of tasty, 100% gluten-free, healthy, real food. Our shared values help us build a more meaningful relationship with our customer base. We aim to provide the best food with hospitality that each and every day exceeds expectations. Farm to Box Street Food. Asian Box was founded to create an authentic, more healthful yet explosively flavorful Asian restaurant focusing on quickly prepared and cooked to order fresh Vietnamese food reminiscent of street stalls in Asia. To achieve our vision for Revolutionary Food, we do things differently at The Box. We fundamentally believe that conducting our business ethically benefits us all—our business, customers, suppliers and community. It is this belief that shapes our strategy and motivates action throughout every aspect of our business. Transparency from farm-to-box. We share in our customers’ concerns about the origins of our food and are proud to be part of the growing movement of restaurants that are promoting transparency in the modern food supply chain. Following in the tradition of Asian street stalls, which were in a way the first sustainable restaurants, we make every effort to support local producers and sustainable agriculture—even when that means paying a market price premium for certain ingredients. At The Box, transparency doesn’t stop there; customers can always see the how their food is prepared through our open-view kitchens.
