Bao Noodles Soup

Tasteful decor, good food. Our waitress made suggestions on how much to order of each which was more than enough. I came in starving and wasn’t able to finish everything. Clearly labelled vegan options and our waitress was helpful in explaining what was vegan and was able to make one of the baos vegan by swapping the bun for a sesame one (would suggest they make this a permanent offering rather than them having to make the change per order but no qualms as is). The vegan food was all very good & not just ticking the box for having the option. Having ordered the number of dishes the waitress suggested it came to about £42pp for two people for dinner.

Pretty authentic taiwanese dishes and options, it’s on the more expensive side but people come here probably for the atmosphere too. Nicely decorated with modern, chic, simple but clean look, the restaurant is divided into 2 floors. The top floors has both indoor and outdoor seats while downstairs looks like there is a karaoke’s and a private room for large room. We need more of these type of store all over Europe and USA, because there are way more delicious taiwanese dish that has not yet been introduced to the world, and opportunities are endless

Me and the wifey went to the shop, and although we didn't have a reservation we managed to get a table in 5 minutes. I gotta say that, the food was phenomenal, absolutely tasty! We've been missing the noodles ever since, I got the Heavy sauce Noodles with Beef Brisket and wifey got the Light Sauce Noodles and both were soooo good. The noodles had a chewy texture and the broth was breathtaking. Can't wait to go again!

The food at BAO is pretty good, we highly enjoyed the Prawn Bao and the raw beef clean broth noodle. The pork belly rice was a bit small for the price and lack of sauce, and the stronger broth beef noodles just lacked a bit of salt/soy. But otherwise still a very nice lunch, a bit pricey but worth checking it out.

BAO is literally one of the best restaurants out there! I have been dying to bring my partner here for years! And I finally did, which an experience he loved. My bf and I loved the baos, we dream about it every day. We had the Tainwanese chicken - crispy, juicy and bursting with flavour. We also ordered the Rare Beef Rump Noodle and Slowcooked Beef Cheek Shortrib Noodle - my bf was not a fan of the rare beef rump noodle, as he said it needed a little bit more oomph, but nevertheless savoured the whole bowl! I enjoyed the Beef Cheek Shortrib noodle where our server recommended us to dip the beef into the cured egg - GAME CHANGER. It totally changed my opinion on the dish. THE BAOS! The bell of the ball, my boyfriend and I fought over it, we had the classic, confit pork and the chicken one. Which we love! The baos were so soft and the classic one just melts in your mouth. We dream about the baos everyday! The service was top-notch! They were very attentive, very friendly and approachable despite the place being packed.
