Billed as Chicago’s “oldest traditional Chinese Bakery,” the flagship at 2253 South Wentworth Avenue an updated location with modern signage, Chiu Quon Bakery & Dim Sum has been serving residents of the Windy City since 1986. Owned by Joyce Chiu and brother Matthew, their no-frills approach to Pastries, Cakes, Buns and more having additionally entered Uptown with further expansion planned, it is from 7:00am until 8:00pm daily that guests are welcomed – COVID-19 currently seeing extra safety measures implemented at a space that already appears quite clean. Cash only then and now, with dining area currently closed but take-out sales faring well thanks to Chiu Quon's recent partnership with Facebook advertising, it is from over 100 daily items that diners must make choices, many of them identifiable to those familiar with Chinese Cuisine but others previously unseen. Purporting to use “the finest Ingredients,” a dubious statement considering the low price point, it was at a cost of just under 17 that ten choices were bagged, a lack of seating finding the Taro Bun enjoyed on nearby church steps while Black Sesame baked similarly had an unpleasant gelatinous center as though it was undercooked. Next sampling a refrigerated Walnut Bean Paste Cake, the Pastry on this as well as a “mini” Moon Cake buttery around well-textured Filling, suffice it to say that arriving immediately after Egg Custard Tarts emerged from the oven was fortuitous – both Hong Kong and Portuguese styles still jiggly with *better* largely a matter of personal taste. Taking a chance or two before finishing familiar, Chiu Quon’s Sesame Pork Cookie undoubtedly an acquired taste, it seems hard to believe anyone might enjoy a “Peanut Rice Cake” that eats like sawdust in a flavorless Hostess Snoball, a far better taste and value offered by textbook Sesame Balls or golden Dough baked around subtly sweet Lotus Paste.

I just love the freshness of their baked goods! My favorite is the almond cookies! I drive an hour from Rockford to this little gem! Very friendly staff and so thankful for your visit.

I came here for a fancy dinner, and it was the perfect place to go. Even though the environment was a bit stodgy (it seemed like everyone was at least 50 years old and the furniture is kind of old-school), the food was amazing. We ordered the steak tartare to start, and the meat was very fresh and flavorful. You could tell it was very high-quality and well-marbled as well.

A Chinatown staple, I recommend their BBQ pork bun and their steamed bun (6 in a bag). Classic moon cakes are also really good.

Great place to get some Asian bread and pastry. We mostly come here to buy their BBQ pork buns, and their sweet breads, such as the custard filled or coconut filled breads with sugar crusts on top (which they call Pineapple crust) Their sausage bun and Egg tarts are pretty good too. All great deals and tasty. These breads are great for snacks, a light lunch or for us, breakfast and lunch for the kids the next day!
