K WJuly 18, 2016Other than their infamous baos, it's worth trying their equally delectable short rib dumplings and apple-crusted pork belly!( perfect balance of smokiness, sweetness and sourness)
Lee HoffmanMarch 15, 2018By far the best meal I’ve had in HK. Every item I had was incredible. The lucky 8 cocktail, fried chicken bun, truffle fries and salted ice cream bun... all of them just mind blowing. Go!!
Deema SJuly 12, 2016The Truffle Fries is a must! The Satay Beef Bao was good, The Szechuan Fried Chicken Bao was ok, for me. I can assure you that you will not get enoug of eating The Salted Caramel Bao 😍👌🏼 to die for
Charlotte ChenSeptember 30, 2013Ridiculously good, I tried all 4 - Sweet soy pork belly w/ hoisin ketchup, fried chicken w/ Szechuan vinaigrette, fish tempura w/ tamarind sugar glaze and Taiwanese style tempeh w/ truffle mayo.
Angelito MontesAugust 12, 2014Every single dish I ordered were delish : pork belly bao, the green tea condensed milk bao, LB fries, Brussels sprouts, pickled mushroom salad, staff were great. Yah bit pricy but totally worth.....
Laurie BennettSeptember 25, 2016This place is a real winner. Amazing bao 'burgers' - crispy chicken and satay beef - with Japanese craft beers. Even dessert mini bao burger with salty caramel ice cream patty. Ace.
Kailey L.November 23, 2013Pork belly bun juicy, tender and bursting with flavours. Green tea cream sandwich takes a spin off the traditional deep fried "man tou" & condensed milk into a green tea cream sandwich. Interesting!
Julie MOctober 25, 2016These are a gourmet take on the traditional Chinese bread, with innovative stuffings such as slow-cooked pork belly, and black vinegar-glazed chicken with sichuan mayo.- Johnny WangMay 3, 2019(3/5) The classic Chinese bao with a Western spin on flavors and ingredients, served more like a burger. Sides and sharing dishes are a combination of Western and Eastern fusion, and all enjoyable.
EddJuly 5, 2023Thé baos are all great but save some tummy room for this genius of a salad dish - iceberg lettuce with anchovies & black beans 🫢 simple but packs a full flavour punch
Riri GrrDecember 20, 2017Come at 1830 on a weekday to get seated almost immediately. Can’t go wrong with Pork Belly Bao and Truffle Fries. Though lacks a powerful blow in flavors, it’s well balanced, enjoyable nevertheless.
Brian JengMarch 20, 2017Really good baos! And tons of variety -- something for everyone. You can mix and match and pick what you want, so it's a good spot to try a variety of different flavors.
Moses LeeNovember 22, 2018Contemporary bao (buns in Cantonese) by Asian best female chef - May Chow! Bao with Sichuan style chicken is my favorite. Don't miss out on this place if you visit the PMQ next door.
Vivien LeungNovember 3, 2013Lovely small resto. I tried the pork belly bao - divine. The dessert bao is even better. I also tried their fried chicken which was ok. The pan fried dumplings were delish tho. Can order half portions
Lui Cheuk FungJuly 15, 2014Usually not needing to queue after 9:30pm weekdays. All baos are amazing! There are daily specials on the wall & mostly not forgetting to order the ice cream baos. Personally prefer salted caramel!
Winkie LamJune 10, 2014No need to queue on weekdays if you get there before 7pm. And this is the must try LB ice cream bao.
The pork belly bao is a must try and for an umami punch get the pickled mushroom salad and the truffle fries. So delicious!
Anne D.J.May 29, 2018Truffle fries and green tea ice cream are the best. You can have some cocktails while waiting in line.
René KyllingstadFebruary 25, 2015The pork belly bao was ridiculously delicious - as expected from all the tips. The Szechuan fried chicken bao was equally good. I don't understand why there isn't a perpetual line outside this place.
LauraoryoOctober 23, 2018I really recommend the lamp tartare, taste good and interesting! And also the salted caramel ice cream
Terence LauMay 19, 2016The truffle fries and fried chicken bao are wonderful. Not sure if it's worth waiting for but the food is good.
CJ DayritMay 3, 2016Great staff! Great baos! Love the truffle fries. Just make sure this is your last destination of the day cuz you'll smell like bao lol :)
Alan MoAugust 29, 2016All the Baos are delicious. Each one has its own unique flavor. Pork belly bao is soo good!
AlinaFebruary 25, 2019The truffle fries are absolutely mouthwatering, fish bao is an amazing combination of sweet and savoury. Avoid peak hours to get seated immediately.
SteveApril 5, 2016Check out this place for the ice cream baos - vanilla and salted caramel, matcha, and more.
Joel SavitzkyJanuary 31, 20151. Don't get frustrated, it's worth the wait. 2. Do get a tempura fish Bao. 3. Razor. Clam. Special. That is all.
FoodieWorldJune 10, 2014Best New Restaurant (Honourable mentions ) • The Foodie Forks 2014 Chef May superfies simple, common Asian ingredients into sth unique and brandable, awesome baos!
Wilson Favre-DelerueFebruary 17, 2016Delicious baos and nibbles. Aim for an early dinner so the baos don't run out or a late visit for what's left and less crowds.
Julius TarngMarch 31, 2016Fried chicken bao and yuzu soda were good but really not into the seated vibe. They def rush you quite a bit so just have that mindset and you're good!
The non-Bao dishes are getting better by the week. Def a crowd pleaser, judging from the queues. Come bang on at 6pm or not at all.
Alexis WMay 31, 2015The pork belly bao is very fatty, but tasty. If you prefer something more meaty go for the Szechuan Chicken.
Fabio GarciaOctober 26, 2013Excellent mixed Asian American restaurant. Pork belly is delicious. Arrive early to avoid queue.
Pork belly bao & fried chicken in orange glaze and salted egg yolk are to die for!!!
Sean RobertsonJuly 1, 2016Sichuan chicken bao was good but could have been spicier. Salt caramel bao was top notch. Definite must try!- Will MoffatFebruary 17, 2016Everything was really nice. Balanced and generally great. Super nice staff and drinks.
Barr VizelMay 10, 2019Truffle fries is a must! Amazing dish. Had the pork belly and crispy chicken and loved it as well.
Mackenzie PriceMay 12, 2019There are two vegetarian bao options here, including one that had a faux beef patty by Impossible Foods.
- Mark KozlowskiJanuary 12, 2017My mouth exploded with goodness! If you can go here do, the food is amazing and the desserts to die for.
Ian SullivanMay 29, 2014Yes, the portions are small, but everything tastes divine, and it's not that expensive really, so shut your whining and order a few more dishes. You're welcome.- Rajeev ChuganiOctober 26, 2013Yum and delicious. Pork belly is a must try for first timers. Slightly over priced though.
BorisNovember 5, 2014Sure it's slightly overpriced, but it sure is delicious. Try the Holy Crab on the specials menu. It's mindblowingly good.
Jonathan KanFebruary 18, 2016All baos are pretty good, recommend also the truffle fries and especially the ice cream bao
LolosaurrOctober 3, 2014Spicy fried chicken bao, dont waste time with anything else i'd say. Attack the sides - short rib dumplings and fries especially.
Jessie LeeJune 9, 2015The asian version of the burgers. Trendy place in town. The pork belly little Bao is a must try- Fabio GarciaApril 16, 2014Mixed Hong Kong and American food delicious and tasty. Small but confortable . Love it
