Cafe Grille

This isn't a fancy place, but it doesn't pretend to be either. Simple, tasty, traditional northern chinese baozi at a sensible price. We had a baozi each and shared a noodle dish. Fair warning, the noodles were pretty average, but we didn't come for noodles... These baozi are quite big, so don't be surprised if two or three fill you up. Would have been nice to see some vegetarian options like egg and chive, but pork baozi are a classic. Service was friendly and quick, they have a load of baozi steamed up and ready to go so we got to tuck in pretty promptly even while it was so busy the poor waiter was getting rushed off his feet.

First time trying Sister Bao tonight. The Dan Dan Noodles and the dumplings were really good. And this is coming from a person who ate them often in Hong Kong. Will visit again. Service was good. Update 21.8.23 Visited again today after the first time since Christmas 2022 during lunch time. The DD noodles were the same ,service was fine. Not Sister Bao’s fault but those mainland china students absolutely ruined the experience for everyone today, talking so loud all the way throughout despite being in a small public space, those mainland people have all that money to study in Edinburgh but can’t buy a bit of etiquette and class.

The Staff & Owners were darling. The Bao was delicious. They just needed a little more steam heat. The dumplings were awesome and the menu looks like it has incredible dinner items. Don't shy away for a dinner here versus a lunch or snack as that's all I had time for. My local friend took me here and loves it as well. Service: Amazing Seating: Just a few tables Sauces: Chili Oil & Hoison sent to you per an ask!

I've eaten in many Chinese restaurants all around the U.K. This place has the best belly pork I've ever had from a Chinese restaurant for sure. The food was fresh, hot and tasty. Pricing is very reasonable considering the location, my main dish was around £9-10. Quite relaxed atmosphere and you definitely don't feel rushed. Free WiFi is available. Would recommend.

My Sunday dinner go to. The hot and dry noodles are exceptional. If you want something more meaty, the Dan Dan noodles are perfect and today I tried the spicy been fun. The best thing about this place is that they have out of almost all Chinese restaurants I’ve been to, delivered consistently on the quality and tenderness of meat. Such a good place. The spicy tofu bao is now my favourite.

Just had amazing lunch here, I ordered beef spicy noodle. It's not ordinary chinese yellow noodle but like rice noodle, i love the texture. It was so refreshing, savoury and delightful. I will come back for sure, and the price is affordable, I spent £10. Another story, I left my phone there and the kind staff help me to get it back, thank you very much

ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS 😋 I can't wait till the next time I'm back which will be very soon! I was dining with someone who has an allergy and they were very lovely and attentive. All the staff were nice and the food is absolutely amazing, we are both veggie but that didn't stop the food from being so flavourful !! Definitely Definitely recommend. The buns are delicious and so nice to eat, the dumplings are a must try! - we had fan fried. Delicious! And the ramen soup was just soooo goood. Definitely give it a try 😊 Thank you Sister Bao!
