BAO & BBQ in Bradford

Delicious food with a great menu. Wide variety of cocktails and wine, and wonderful service by the staff, especially Somu. Thanks for a lovely meal!

Had a totally delicious lunch here today....really good value...2 BAOs for £15 and sat watching the buzz of Regent Street. A friend tells me the steak is superb as well so I will be back! Great service too.

Should have read the reviews before visiting. Whilst the food was great and two of the wait staff were friendly, one other guy was super rude and spoilt the overall experience.

the food is really good and the ambience is nice. Chicken bao is a must try.It’s a great place for lunch with friends. Highly recommended!

First time visitors- we went for my daughter’s birthday lunch. It was truly splendid! We didn’t know our way around the menu so chose the two set meals. The food was wonderful in taste and appearance- we would definitely recommend and go again. Thanks to all the staff and Somu who arranged a little surprise birthday cake for my daughter- what a lovely touch!

This is one place that we cannot recommend highly enough. When we arrived we were greeted warmly & immediately seated. The restaurant had a good vibe. In no time at all the server came across & explained how the order system works. She recommended 4...

This is definitely a place where you order food for the table to share which we loved. They said to order 3 to 4 small plates each and they come out when they were ready so it doesn't really work if you order individually. Some...

Lovely place setting and very tasty food. You need to order 3-4 dishes although you only get one bao which works out expensive. It’s nice- found it via Instagram. Been once wouldn’t return.

3 of us went for dinner and shared a selection from the menu, it was all very tasty, and well cooked although the portions were not huge there was plenty. Fairly priced wine and a rather good cocktail.

Food was tasty and had good flavour, portions were very small, i had the ribs and they had hardly any meat on them. I would visit again but wouldn’t rush back, i also do not like how the food comes to the table at random...

Firstly… we were shown to our table by someone who looked sorely miserable. No smiling or polite conversation. Sat down ordered drinks - they were tiny, the smallest cocktail we’d ever had. We were then given the menu, my eyes went straight to the message...

Absolutely fantastic meal here, been quite a few times and it’s easily becoming my favourite restaurant. Fantastic service and great atmosphere, we had a wonderful meal for my birthday and the staff couldn’t have done more it was brilliant. Chicken bao is elite!

We booked after reading rave reviews but book early - we could only get 5.45 on a Saturday. We got a warm welcome from Miki and fantastic service from Ovi who had excellent knowledge of the menu and the drinks list. All the food was...

Where do we start? The greeting was robotic and unfriendly, told to sit here and wait. Taylor Swift pumped out on the radio, followed by Ed Sheeran, sounded like we were sitting in McDonald's. We asked if it was OK to order a few dishes...

Came here for a birthday dinner and it was amazing! The food is such high quality - and although it's a little more expensive, it is completely worth it! The bao buns are especially delicious and I have to mention the glazed pork belly as...

Really good service from Somuwali, nice guy, friendly and honest recommendations. Tasty food and super original. Defo a recommendation to go

We visited here on a Sunday night and the restaurant manager managed to seat us at a very busy time, despite not having a reservation, which we hugely appreciated, although we were advised to make a reservation for future visits. The concept at this restaurant...

A small cramped restaurant and I found it very noisy, the food and drinks are very expensive and strangely the food is brought out as its cooked so some of our group were eating well before others. It does seem to be a bit of...

We went there with my daughter for lunch , busy place but very cozy in the same time , we like the new menu with new dishes , top service , the food was AMAZING with very good combination and very tasty . We will...

I have been a handful of times here and the food is incredible, the beer and wine amazing and the service is the best in Cheltenham. I always leave with a full stomach and a 5*+ service. Thank you to all the team at Bao...

Had a platter to eat as a group of 4 and the food was excellent! A great fusion of different tastes and staff were very friendly 👍

Went for lunch with my mum and we both loved it! The food was insane and the service was great too! We both recommend this restaurant, it’s a must try!

My husband and I set out for a rare, child-free lunch and booked to go to Bao & BBQ. We don’t live locally so this was a destination lunch and we weren’t disappointed. The varied menu had a great selection of choices and we struggled...

Valentine’s evening dinner, almost cancelled to get pizza takeaway instead but really glad didn’t. Moody dark interior. Slightly chilly, but as right next to open kitchen probably extractor fan related! Waiter couldn’t have been more attentive. Food was divine. Loved sharing style of menu. Great...

Came out for food and drinks with friends and have been blown away with the service from Ovi and Somu. The food is exceptional with a great array of flavours and something for everyone. We ordered a variety of dishes to share and would highly...

We had a wonderful evening here. My second visit. Some excellent service and top notch food recommendations from Samu!

Lovely atmosphere to this place. Staff pleasant. Very popular. Food was good but so overpriced for what you get. I did enjoy it but didn't leave me wanting more for some reason. If it had bowled me away I know the prices wouldn't have bothered...

First visit, great grating and nice atmosphere. Seated and asked for water, still please, waiter poured 4 glasses of water. Cocktail menu looked good. No draft beer, so two bottle to make a pint £11.... The 12 year old not so good with chilli so...

- Torn between a 3 & 4*. Decided to go with a 3* as I believe bao + bbq to be slightly overpriced. If Tripadvisor had a ‘good’ rating then I’d give it that - Really nice decor & vibe, really nice place for an...

We had the festive roast platter between three of us, as recommended by Thomas, our waiter. He got it right - we loved it. Highly recommneded.

This is my second visit to Bao + BBQ and it was just as good as the first. The food is delicious, as well as the cocktails...but what makes it even better is how friendly and knowledgeable the host Ovidiu is, and the rest of...

Lovely service, staff were amazing it's a shame the manager treats them so badly. Very unprofessional behaviour witnessed.

Can’t rate Bao + BBQ highly enough. The food was unbelievably good (we all had 2 courses and chose the 3 x Bao buns for main). The quality of food was excellent and definitely worth the money. Cheltenham has some brilliant restaurants but this is...

The food was absolutely fabulous, I wanted to eat more. We will most definitely be back for a dinner date. Thomas our waiter was charming and very attentive throughout. Big fan of the Bao pine cocktail too! Please can we have the recipe?!

We Enjoyed Our Food However Some Portions Are Bigger Than Others. We went for a couples date night and the service was exemplary. Very polite staff and a very nice interior design. If there was any negative with the staff is that they were a...

Great food and service from Somu Wali - attentive and polite server. Would come back again - the food was brilliant.

Our waiter Somu Wali was very attentive and made our experience perfect. We had the Sharing Feast as it was our first visit. Very nice but thought overpriced at £42 pp. The cocktail choice was good.

had a lovely time at bao and bqq food was great and the service from somu wali was amazing:) will definitely return

Visited for lunch and so glad we did. The food and service were brilliant and we enjoyed the experience overall. Next time we will visit for dinner too, loved the Duck Bao and the Korean Wings were just amazing. Service was great and super attentive...

The food was good and the portions were enough - didn’t go hungry but wasn’t stuffed. All of the items I hadn’t had before but I did enjoy them. The atmosphere was nice . It was early evening but the restaurant still seemed quite full....

We arrived early and was seated straight away which was nice , great waiter service BUT the food all tasted the same with a black sticky salty sauce and a smokey flavour. we ordered wings and bang bang cauliflower , Bbq ribs , coleslaw and...

Simply delicious - great service, amazing food I’ve a feeling it doesn’t matter what you order - the food will be amazing. Such is the standard. We happened to have the CORNFLAKE CHICKEN Panko & cornflake crumb chicken, Korean hot sauce, pickled chilli & cucumber...

We were lucky enough to get an early booking last Friday and were greeted by a lovely maitre d' that showed us to our table. The first floor is a beautifully furnished space, the decor exudes class whilst also being a very relaxing, intimate space....

Great food, wine, service and vibe. It is comparatively expensive however, hence giving it only 4 star. I would visit again for a special occasion.

We were made most welcome on arrival, Tuesday evening and the restaurant had a nice 2/3rd full buzz to it. We started with Chilli Paloma cocktails which were amazing. My starter of pulled pork was very tender and flavoursome, my main of oak smoked 1/2...

The food was delicious and the waiter attentive to us, but was spoilt by being put upstairs with one only other party of small children screaming and running around the restaurant. I have children of my own, so I don’t mind the background noise of...

Amazing food and fantastic service. First night out for a while and blown away by the quality of the food and attention of all of the staff. Would like to say a massive thank you for a lovely evening. We will be back.

From our entry where we were greated by Ovidiu, who stated our friends were already seated in the upper restaurant- to the final fairwell, the whole experience was relaxing yet invigorating with a real sense of proffesionalism throughout. We started with a bottle of champage...

Absolutely amazing food something different and incredibly tasty. We had a fantastic time the food, our table in the window and service was all great. I would like to give a specific mention to our waiter, young Indian man, who provided exceptional customer service.

This food is exceptional, so much so that I have paused my meal and have started writing a review. I have said WOW over 100 times since starting my meal, the presentation, the food quality. This has to be the best food I have ever...
