About Bao

Bao restaurant offers delicious food, with the classic bao being a highlight. Although it may not accommodate large groups and reservations aren't possible, its amazing dishes make it worth visiting as a couple. The woman at the front counter provides helpful suggestions for those unsure of what to order. The main highlight of bao is obviously the bánh bao, with the dough being soft and pillowy. Diners particularly enjoy the Taiwanese classic, where the pork belly is grilled to crispy perfection. Other flavors are also good, making it recommended to order multiple baos. Some dishes like the Korean fried chicken bibimbap are outstanding, while the Vietnamese iced coffee is delicious. The restaurant features a phenomenal vegetarian tan tan men that is very flavorful, with a perfect ratio of tofu, noodles, and broth. The tonkatsu bao is also a favorite among diners, described as a brilliant little bite. The staff and atmosphere are welcoming, making for a fantastic dining experience. Nearly every item has a vegetarian substitute available.
