Careers
Innovative. Fast Pace. Growth.
Join our team! We are the fastest growing and the most innovative Asian fast-casual omni-channel brand in the country.
Who We Are
Wow Bao was established in 2003 as a fast-casual restaurant brand. We became known for our unique Asian-inspired menu, with a focus on bao (steamed buns), potstickers, and rice bowls. Since then, Wow Bao has grown rapidly, offering fresh, flavorful, and high-quality meals across a variety of channels. We have expanded our presence with a combination of physical locations, grocery products, and delivery-only ghost kitchens across the U.S., aiming to make our signature dishes accessible to more consumers.
Innovating within the food industry, we pride ourselves on combining modern convenience with traditional flavors, focusing on technology-driven growth and consumer experience.
