Bao Hiroo

Just down the stairs for me. I was excited that there was a food spot finally opening since FO is taking so damn long. The steamed baos are all good- I prefer the steamed ones. Got to try a variety because of our buildings hh there. Really really love the pork belly steamed Bao. The desserts are ok- I prefer salty over sweet. Had a glass of rose to wash it all down. Summers here! Drink that rose! The bartender gave me a healthy pour :)

Definitely some new flavors for my palette. Very bright and savory flavors that wrap around your taste buds like a king cobra. I’m not that new to bao and i love to experiment with things taste wise, i say that to say the combinations the chef put together are noteworthy. And i thank him(i personally thanked him while i was there because he came to our table 👍🏽). Will definitely be back as well as recommend. It is also a lil on the pricey side, depending on how much you order but still fulfilling both in size and in flavor satisfaction.

This place is not in the center of Art District, at the end of The Galleria, the Lamb and Mint Bao is amazing, very tasty! The Fried Curry Bao is so crunchy, yet not oily, very Yum as well, to cap it off with the PBJ dessert Bao, perfect ending! Tried their handcrafted carbonate cocktail grapefruit and cardamaro very refreshing ! The Servers were friendly and helped me pick few of the items that I might like! Highly recommended! Oh by the way, you will get parking discount with their validation！

A perfect fried chicken taco in a soft bao dough shell. Brilliant. Sweet, sour, tart, soft and crunch - $6. (Aoli with balanced spices, micro greens, thin pickled carrot slices and pickled pepper and tomato) Atmosphere is modern and airy with some additional outside seating.

Let's start out with service- pretty straight forward walk in and sit where you like but order up front first before you find a seat, receive a number to place on your table and wait. The food comes out quickly although I was the only person here it's clear that you won't wait more than 5 minutes and if it's packed I'm sure it's less than 20. Food - for the sides you have choices, I took fries with a choice of sauces. Preference was spicy aoli, the Fry's are a little too salty for my taste but nothing that can't be fixed. Just seemed like it wasn't shaken one more time. The sauce is one of the best I've tried since moving here From Miami. BBQ steak boa - the garnish on top helps sweaten the deal, it's well balanced not overpowering and flavored with taste. It's important to note the bao was not chewy and had great consistency. Although as a personal note id love a slight bit more flavor not from the garnish but from the meat itself. Chicken and Pickle bao - crispy and juicy on the inside the garnish on here gives it a fresh approach and really brings out the chickens flavor. The bao with the previously mentioned consistency really completes the package and it's pretty much a bite you just want to chew for a min longer just to enjoy the flavor. Overall the place is nice for date night the music isn't loud it's got dual garage style openings that allow a lot of fresh air in. And the decor is simple and entertaining with a variety of paintings on the wall. A great place if you're on a budget.👍🤘

5 stars: a tucked-away gem with a great staff, too Great food and surprisingly good house-made cocktails. Personal favorites are the chicken & pickles, spicy piglet, and FISH SAUCE BRUSSELS SPROUTS!! And I could drink gucci wranglers all day. Super friendly staff. Seems like a place I’d want to be a regular at.

I LOVE Bao Hiroo. The crunchy katsu is my favorite, followed by the spicy pig and the Japanese curry. I also get the slaw every single time, it’s delicious. great vibes, great food, great drinks, great place to hang out.

Small roasted veggies salad and the bigger roasted veggies salad.....with multiple meat add ons.
