I am new to the city and I was missing asian food and this was exactly what I needed! It is a really small bakery that sells food from shumai to roasted pork and peking duck to sweet & savory breads. Pictures don't do it justice! The duck and roasted pork were so flavorful and juicy and the sauce that comes with the duck just elevates the entire experience. No seating inside so we brought it home and ate with rice and it was so nostalgic for me and just what I needed as the weather is getting colder. They chop the meat right when you order it. Staff was pleasant! I highly recommend. I didn't get a receipt but it was about $11/lb of roasted pig and somewhere around $20 for half a duck which is pretty standard from what I've seen. **Apple maps has the location wrong for some reason - just keep heading east on olive a bit more and you will see it!

It was . The chicken feet taste delicious. All the buns and bakeries are good. Our favorite is their egg tart. Not too sweet and sooth like silk. Just be aware, There is no seating area.

Love love Love. Wei Hong is as tried and true as they come when it comes to Cantonese. It is not true Szechuan but they certainly use plenty of Szechuan to add heat to their dishes, and I love it. Every single time I roll with their General tao's Chicken. Every single time it exceeds expectations. Now, this is a takeout Cantonese spot so I have no idea how fresh it actually is. Nonetheless, I love it. I wish they still allowed dine in experiences, but I think since COVID they are take out only. Now, back to the food. The General Tao's has a solid kick and is drenched in the sweet sauce. A slight tang, plenty of sweetness, and the kick of peppers makes this dish a favorite. Their orange chicken is great as well. My partner always orders that. Super bright and citrusy with that same kick from the Szechuan. Lastly, got pot stickers for the first time and they were fire. Will absolutely roll with those again. they seem to stay pretty busy as a hefty line remains consistent when grabbing a bite, so sometimes you have to wait a bit, even if you ordered ahead. In any case, a top tier STL takeout spot for me!

We were in town for a soccer tournament and looking to kill time before we could check in to our hotel so decided to stop by this bakery. They only had one parking spot in front of the door so we had to go around the back of the building and found parking next to the building. It is a small bakery but had our favorites so we were happy. We only grabbed a few buns to try because we thought we would have time to come back if we liked them. We were pleasantly surprised and will definitely be back for the bbq pork buns and sweet top buns! We also saw that they sold roast duck and some dim sum trays. We may have to try some the next time we are in the area and our hotel has a fridge and microwave.

My mom and I stopped by Wei Hong Bakery Saturday morning because we were in the area. We haven't been in a while, but are pretty familiar with the bakery and all of the options. (I like to get some fresh rice rolls to use for beef chow fun, but they didn't have those ready when we showed up). I especially like visiting the bakery in the morning, because all of the items are fresh and warm. The items are also pretty reasonably priced-- especially the buns; although the dim sum items can be a little on the more pricey. One of my favorite items are the zongzi, which are glutinous rice filled with pork belly and mung bean wrapped in bamboo leaves. The ham and egg buns and the BBQ pork buns are solid options as well (honestly, everything is good). The restaurant has closed but I'm very happy the bakery is still open! Will definitely try to be back more often :)

Cannot compete with Brooklyn, Chicago, or even Michigan Chinese bakeries, but for its location, pretty decent. Not the freshest but can't expect too much given the Asian population (or lack thereof) in St. Louis. If I lived in St. Louis, I'd be content.

I have found my people. We're from Kansas City and came to STL for the weekend and came to the bakery at the recommendation of some friends. Cantonese, Mandarin and Vietnamese language filled the air. 30 minutes later, we walked out with four boxes of pastries, a huge bag of dim sum, tofu dessert... and $125 less in my pocket. The place didn't disappoint as I had my Ratatouille moment outside in the parking lot as my family and I dove into the food. My wife and kid had evidence of powdered sugar on their faces even before we got to the car. WE SHALL RETURN.

I've been wanting to try this place for a while since it's one of the only Asian bakeries in St. Louis. Came on a weekday night and was surprised that there were still many people in the store. They were all speaking Cantonese which was very comforting. I will say that I have tried some of their other stuff like Egg Tarts and Pineapple Buns, but these are more in my recent memory. - Cream Buns - First time trying these and will say that it's not my favorite. I think the cream hardens over time and starts to taste like frosting. The bread though is amazing, so soft. - Pork Floss Buns - This is always one of my favorite things to get at an Asian Bakery and I was a little bit surprised by this one. I thought they would roll the pork floss into the bun but it was only on the outside. Nonetheless it's still pretty tasty. Overall, solid Asian bakery. Not the best I've ever had but pretty good for St. Louis. Did I mention that their prices are ridiculously cheap?

Stopped by here after seeing it although the sign was covered by a tree. It's a small place but the food is legit. Not too many choices but the food they do have is good. The shumai was really flavorful and filling. The egg tarts were perfect but perhaps a little too eggy. I know they're called egg tarts but a little easier on the yolk would be good. People were getting barbecue and my friend got the shrimp dumplings. Everything was pretty good. Hardworking and kind people and they kept the line moving.
