BaoBun Lisburn Road in Belfast

Food stone cold because the delivery was almost an hour late.

The young lad who served us was excellent. It was our 1st time in the shop and he took the time to explain how to order He didnt mind explaining what a bao bun was and how it was made. His advice and patience was well recieved . He is a credit to the shop.

Had the pleasure of meeting Bonnie in the Lisburn Road location as part of my work, she was so knowledgeable and attentive. Fabulous food, great atmosphere and the nicest staff! Highly recommend this spot!

Wow! This little gem... First time ever trying a BaoBun and it was absolutely delish. The pulled pork is beautiful. I highly recommend a must try!

The sales assistants are very kind, great choice of foods. The perfect cooked rice, the bao good but I would add more sauce to make them perfect; the only thing is that the chips are a little bland (but still delicious and not greasy).

Friendly and helpful staff. Food was amazing!! I will definitely go back!! Very impressed. Thanks

The bao buns are out of this world! I go for Tofu with the hot mix, very yummy. The spiced fries and sriracha go down a treat. My only criticism would be the price, it is a little pricey and it would be nice if the lunch deal extended to the weekends.

Outstanding food, decently priced and super polite and helpful staff. Would easily recommend!

Food was decent, just expensive for what you get. 15 quid for 2 bao, chips and a drink, and while the flavour was good the bao were very light on the duck.

My delivery didn’t arrive and they said there was nothing they could do - the money was taken out of my account and nobody can contact the driver, just eat are pending my refund but I used a voucher and not sure I’ll get that back. Not ordering ever from here again

The lid on the container was even on right. It was warped and didn't fit, there was a gap.

I have spent a fortune this past few weeks in here and have received food cold before and just heated it up without saying anything but the food came tonight stone cold I will not be ordering again very disappointed

I am always so delighted by the food, the staff, and the service. CONSISTENTLY delicious, and I love the vegan options!

I ordered this today then made another order for my sister both orders were freezing I have bought out of here everyday for a few weeks now and I think after today I won’t be purchasing again both orders were cold

I visit Bao from time to time at different locations. Friday night about ten pm I ordered the bao bun(2) portion with pop corn chicken. You can add three sides. So I had Asian slaw, pickled carrot and onion and a little kimchi with Korean bbq sauce. At £9.95 it's reasonable in this day and age. I like these, though the kimchi was too hot for me and I should have left it out. Staff helpful and as it was empty when I went in I had no wait. Recommended. Clean and efficient service.

Dalan is a superb server. He was super helpful in recommending food options and accommodating to our requirements. We’ll definitely be back!!

Food portions are literally half of what they were less than a year ago. Also no poutine fries anymore. Used to love it. Won't be back

says delivered and I haven't received my food

Very good stuff. I was a bit sad last time I was there that they no longer seem to do the mushrooms but I had the duck instead and it was very nice.

I used to pop in every now and again for the lunch deal which was a bao, spiced fries and a drink for 8. The same is now 12, with an extra bao, but it's called a meal deal. The lunch deal for 9 is now only a single bao and a heap of rice, no fries, no drink. I asked twice not to have peanuts on my sad little rice, but guess what - I got flippin peanuts regardless. Edit: I see BaoBun has replied to my review and has completely missed the point. I get it that inflation drives prices up and don't mind paying more for the same thing. My beef is that it wasn't the same thing, so effectively it was a combo of inflation and shrinkflation where portions get smaller - in this case a third smaller as there was no drink or fries offered in the so called deal. That's all there is to it, no need to act derisively or make me sound petty by offering me a 1 refund as clearly that's not what it was about. Good day to you.

order was wrong but the store was really helpful and was able to get it resolved, lovely food

Bao Buns 5/5 Bahn mi 3/5 Go to madame pho if you want a bahn mi

kinda disappointed. very little duck in the bao. fries were incredibly salty and majority tasted like they'd been in the oil for a long time, too crispy if you know what I mean

Food arrived cold and dip had leaked all over the bags

Wrong order, food not even tasty I have ordered baos and got rice instead. Below my order there was a restaurant number, so I called them, I was told the number on delivero is incorrect and I was given a different number just to be told nothing can be done and I need to contact delivero, so there was no chance of getting correct order. Aimee was unapologetic and unhelpful. Also the dish was ment to have kimchi in it, and it had raw cabbage and carrot instead. Food was very tasteless, you can make it much better at home and not waste yor money.

Can't rate the food or delivery as the driver didnt deliver the order that left the shop

Great wee spot on the Lisburn road. Food is delicious and service is speedy. Loved sitting at the window and people watching while eating. Would definitely recommend.

It's not often you try somewhere new and be pleasantly surprised by both the food and staff, this was the case for us this evening. There is a blonde haired girl that can't do enough for you, she's a proper credit to this business. Food recommendations were fantastic from both members of staff. Thoroughly impressed and will be a regular customer going forward.

Rare to get food that absolutely blows you away these days - but Bao Bun did it! Absolutely unbelievable. So simple and so fresh, but an absolute taste sensation.

First time trying Bao buns, won't be the last !!!

I never got my meal. Had said they’d delivered it which they didn’t (I gave the right address) never got a refund either. Definitely not blaming the restaurant, my brother had ordered from here and he got his food and we were staying at the same place so go figure. Asked for a refund cause this had happened twice in less than 24hrs and couldn’t get a refund. Not happy at all.

Always good food here,highly recommend this restaurant for fresh tasty and quick food.

We were there Monday the 11th of Sept '23. The Lady serving was extremely helpful, friendly and provided exceptionally good service. She was very knowledgeable on food allergens and in truth couldn't do enough for us.

We tried all the vegan options, popcorn cauliflower, char siu jackfruit, crispy tofu and walnut mushroom. These baos are very authentic, being from Singapore myself it’s almost impossible to find any truly authentic Asian food. Excellent food with attentive service and helpful, friendly staff! Highly recommend!

This is our favourite branch of BaoBun. Friendly staff, great food, nice surroundings, and bao served on plates and bowls. Consistently good quality.

First time in with my family tonight, we had tofu, pulled beef, pork and chicken, food was delicious, a staff member was more than helpful, friendly, and couldn't have done more. Would definitely go back, and will definitely recommend it to friends.

Great food. But they did not put the additional kimchi in the baos that I paid extra for, which was very frustrating as I was looking forward to that and not to mention the food was not cheap

Beautiful loads of flavour. Boa buns are great

Ordered via UberEats. Such good food. Well presented and extremely tasty. Nice little touches like the curd sprinkled over the bao bun didn't go unnoticed either. Good value.

30/07/2023. Good food. Excellent staff member who took time out to chat and explain dishes. Thank you. Deserves a bonus.

The hottest food I have received. Like I was in the actual restaurant. Good flavours as always. Would recommend.

Super helpful staff and amazing food. Ask for samples if you're not sure how something tastes ☺️

Food cold last 3 times ordered on arrival and dip cartons half full

Food was great, bit expensive though. Very clean and tidy. Staff were friendly and fast.

Lovely helpful staff. It's hard to know what to get sometimes as it's all tasty. The staff are great with advice, little tastes if you can't decide. Quick, tasty food.

Fantastic Bao! Found the menu ordering system a little confusing as it was our first time here. The front of house employees were great at helping us through this, however, although communication was a little bit more difficult with all of us wearing masks and the very effective and essential perspex screen with holes in it to shout through! Food was really delicious. Tried several types of Bao and all were good. Kids loved their children's meals as well. The spicy fries with Szechuan dip were especially good. Effective dividers between the tables also making this small space feel more safe. If I'm being picky, the Kimchi was a bit too hot for the kids and I don't think it has been fermented for long enough; was a bit thin and sweet. The staff here are very friendly and a credit to the business. Can't wait to visit again! Update Jan 2023... Yep, still great! 😋

Delicious food, great staff good price.

Always well prepared and delicious food. Friendly staff and great customer service.

My favourite place, i drive an hour to get one every time and it's always worth it, we ordered our food for take out and here I am eating leftovers 5 hours later and i never eat leftovers from anywhere bar here, the ice cream dessert thing is out of this world. Staff are always helpful and friendly and have very good customer service.

Good place for a snack. Fun tasty and delicious. At £8:75 for 2 baos it’s not cheap. They have various fillings. The walnut mushrooms is very good. Tried the jackfruit and the popcorn cauliflower ones too. It’s messy to eat so be prepared. A meal deal is for £12:75 with fries and a drink with your baos. Good enough for one time for me atleast, not sure I would come back again.

Absolutely delicious, good service, great vegan choices.

Unexpected visit but clean friendly and not bad food

Amazing! Absolutely outstanding food. Staff were delightful, menu is a treat for vegans. *** Highly recommended ***

Quite a substantial serving - tasty too. Staff helpful.

Wasn't sure about this when I went in, but it was the nicest lunch Ive had

Really enjoyed our meal here. Fresh, tasty food served by welcoming staff. Would recommend

Not as impressive in taste as it looks, wasn't bad but probably won't go back.

Overpriced junk. Bun was soggy and tasted like it was half raw. Contents shredded and mashed with no texture Even the chips were inedible. It has been a long time since l had such a bad meal. Doesn't even deserve a one star.

Awful! Ordered the BBQ jackfruit bao bun and it was gross! The flavour was so artificial. Looks like a lot of MSG judging by the colour.

A Friday night treat. You won't be disappointed. Wide variety. Friendly, helpful staff. Hygienic with screens up for separation between tables. We wish it was closer to us so we could go more often, but it makes for a lovely treat. Would recommend the Bao with Pork, and House Sauce. And the Katsu fries are delicious.

Great food. I have been a few times and will go again.

i see BaoBun in botanic it's good fast, respect, clean place, calmly in lisburn road Different. i hope to do the best

Very tasty and filling in a warm clean environment

Food was lovely, service was akin to a portaloo.

I can take it or leave it hence the rating. Good that they offer a veggie only offering. In my opinion your experience may be determined by who's staffing the customer facing roles. Prices have risen to reflect increased raw materials cost, which is fair. It might be a better experience if you sit in, I always take away.

Please avoid this place. There underpay there staff and cut corners to screw them over. They abuse all there staff and take advantage of them by cutting corners and using shady tactics to screw with them and there paycheck. When confronted the business found this hilarious and laughed in my face. Food is also stinking

Smacznie. Miły i pomocny personel. Dziękujemy za pomoc przy zamówieniu. Śliska podłoga przed wejściem do lokalu w poblużu żelu do dezynfekcji rąk- grozi poślizgiem lub upadkiem.

Really enjoyed. Gorgeous food. Staff are lovely. Highly recommended

The meal deals make a fantastic lunch, no matter which options you choose.

Cold bun and filling with one of the buns. Great service though, the girls were helpful and friendly!

Love my bao buns! So so tasty and filling

One of my favourite places to eat in Belfast! I am not vegan or vegetarian but I always get the jackfruit or tofu, it is very yummy in my tummy ☺️. Whether it's on rice or chips, it never fails to satisfy my hunger and taste buds

Really tasty & super friendly staff.

Delicious BaoBun, Meal Deal, pork bao, kimchi fries with house sauce, tasty and not too spicy. Staff attentive and friendly. Good CoVID compliance. Try this if you I'm the Lisburn road area,👍👍👍

Really tasty food , had many meals from here , the bao's are tasty but the chicken on chips with house sauce or avioli sauce is the meal I'd choose ,really fresh food , if you haven't I'd definitely recommend takeaway from here .

Food is unreal! And staff are friendly and helpful.

Visited today for 1st time for some propper BaoBuns. Michael was great with the welcome and doing a full run through of the menu and how to order the combinations. Food was awsome, very filling and packed with flavour and texture. Cheers to all the team.

Delicious food. I visited for the first time a couple of weeks ago. The staff were incredibly helpful. I’ve just returned again and it did not disappoint. I would highly recommend the food.

I am absolutely astonished at how good the food was. Got the pork burger with House slaw, my quite fussy 7 year old son got the kids meal with pork…probably one of the tastiest dining experiences I’ve ever had. Staff were super friendly and helpful. Couldn’t recommended any more.

Came here after a nice day at the beach during the heatwave looking for some nice takeout and was absolutely not disappointed. I got a bao burger with char siu and the korean BBQ combo and it was absolutely lovely. I have had chinese in London with dumplings before and ever since I have been missing them - BaoBun has given me a taste of Char Siu again. The fries that came with it were brilliant as well, similiar in size to McDonalds but not soggy in the slightest and they were nicely seasoned. I will certainly be coming back - no question.

First time at BaoBun and it won't be my last! The food was delicious and the staff were very friendly, and helpful. They were very patient as I muddled my way through my order. Next time I will be more confident when ordering. The atmosphere in the place was lovely and we were able to sit in and eat. Everything was very well socially distanced.

Nice restaurant, good variety good location and friendly staff

Foods great, health too. Ingredients seem really fresh to me.

Had a bao bun with pork and the house combo. Really delicious, fresh and flavoursome, will definitely be back!

For the size of the Bao buns, they are extremely filling. Got the pork 'hot' ones, BBQ beef, and popcorn chicken fries. The selection is excellent, staff very friendly, nice you can sit in a causal environment and the food is extremely tasty, with great flavours and textures. Could be considered on the more expensive side, as prices soon add up, but it's definitely a treat. Can see why it's so popular, and would be unfair to rate it anything but five star.

Friendly staff and awesome food as always! Love that the Bao Burger is a regular on the menu and not a weekly special 😋

Lovely food 😋great experience 👍

Loved my first experience at BaoBun

Best fast baos ever and not expensive either

Lovely place, the girls behind the counter were great, friendly. Took a star off cause it wouldn't be something I'd go and eat again, was nice but I'm more a basic dinner girl. But the girls I went with love it and if it's the kind of food you like, definitely give it a go. Prices were very reasonable as well, and the chips were awesome.

Love this place food is sooooo tasty....

Really filling and tastes amazing. Completely full up !!

Cracking fresh and tasty food!!!

I have been standing here for an hour on a bank holiday Monday. I feel very disappointed as there was more preference to deliveroo orders, meaning we have to wait 1 hour and basically we been standing watching how deliveroo orders has been made. Lastly they forgot to add the forks. Not happy with that!

I have just eaten the most delicious chicken burger ever with house salad side. I usually go for the popcorn chicken bao bun and thought I'd try something different. Highly recommend it, and will definitely be back. Staff very friendly too. Thank you

Absolutely delicious food. Good variety of food, excellent portions and decent prices.

Ordered a Bao Bun with Beef and Korean BBQ, the flavours and consistency are an absolute delight to the taste buds. Decent portion size as it's not a challenge to finish but also not leaving me still hungry. The fries are also sensational, lovely and crispy with a fluffy inside, exceptional seasoning and beautifully aromatic, the Szechuan dip makes an excellent pairing. Absolutely love this place, very happy to spend my money here.

My wife and I tried here for the first time today. I had a BaoBun with beef and asian coleslaw, it was absolutely beautiful. The sauce wasn't too strong and the bun was lovely and soft. My wife had a rice box with sezuan beef and house topping, again it was beautiful, everything judt went well together. We will definitely be going back.

Great filling food and really tasty. One of my favourite places to eat. Can't recommend highly enough!

Fantastic food, tried meal deal 2 & 3 and it was definitely worth the price!
