Famous Bao Reviews

Stewed oxtail soup is delicious, but the owner is downright rude. I've seen him get impatient with customers (for very menial things, like taking too long getting the change) and yell at his staff multiple times.

Favorite noodle place in Berkeley for something that has a kick to it. I have been probably around 7 times because it's a great place to get your cravings for noodles satisfied. Whether you want soup or dry you will find something to make you feel satisfied. The meats are always tender and flavor. The noodle texture is also what makes it stand out as a noodle restaurant in Berkeley where the food industry is already so saturated.

Go-to spot for authentic homemade nonspicy Chinese food in Berkeley. Specifically braised pork belly with rice. Their portion sizes and plating have changed in the past year with less protein/fat and more carbs (rice) now. Personally I didn't mind because I wasn't able to finish everything before. The taste is close to home-cooked meals, and the place is generally pretty clean, well-lit and comfortable.
