Ottimmo Bao Bao in Hillingdon

Went there recently with a family member. Food lovely - decor pleasant and eye catching! Very roomy. Staff really we coming

Small cafe with great chinese/Japanese/Korean food, well and quickly prepared, at a good price

Lovely little restaurant. Food was delicious and fresh, and the service I received was top. Would definitely recommend!

One of the best places to eat in Uxbridge. Very nice and cosy place. The food is very unique and I would definitely recommend to try Basil Bliss Green Curry with chicken and their Lamb Bao. The staff are all friendly and very helpful.

This is a wonderful place let down by lack of ventilation. The place has a musty smell that I just couldn't bear after a point. Otherwise the food was great and well presented

Definitely best food in Uxbridge. Lovely, clean environment. Staffs are spot on. Must try when in town👌 👍

Food was very tasty and the service was excellent. I went there every day during my short stay in the town, and enjoy the beautiful food.

First visit to OBB. Left 200% impressed. Had the soft shell crab bao with salad and sweet potatoe fries, along with an iced tea with crushed dates. There was something very special about the sauce in the bao, really binding ingredients together, delicious! Service perfect. Fab lunch & brilliant find while shopping in Uxbridge! Thank you 🐼

Reeeaaaaaaaaalllyyyy good food! Highly recommend the green curry and the katsu. Baos are tasty too ofc. Everything fresh and nice.

Great little place serving delicious food that makes a change from the usual high street places!

The bao is soft and generously portioned. The katsu chicken with mango yuzu sauce and the prawn tempura tamago with kabayaki sauce are delicious and flavorful. The squid rings and the edamame spring roll are on a whole other level.

Can’t count the amount of times I’ve eaten here, it’s always great

Popped in for a few bao and gyoza, delicious 😋

Everything is super good! Good value for money! We will return without a doubt! Try it, you'll definitely repeat it! There are many shops in the surrounding area.

Very nice atmosphere and staff.got the Shanghai soup...not too spicy so got chilli oil on the side too, and the lychee mohito, went down a treat, recommended.

Nice place. Tasty soups, great bao, what's not to like? Not a huge menu, which is always a good sign. Will definitely return.

So tasty! Had the bao buns and they were so fluffy and very yummy

Great food, lovely music and cozy environment. Brought my mum along today and she really enjoyed the food here. She said it's the best Asian restaurants in uxbridge. Thank you for your attentive service. Will definitely continue to patronise. Your green curry chicken rice bowl and lamb buns are amazing.

I really recommend curry chicken. beautiful food and wonderful staff.

A nice little place nestled in a quiter corner of Uxbridge. Decor is really cute, and the menu items look appetising. Food was good - we had the prawn tempura rice bowl, which came with little corn fritters and tamago (egg), the tofu kare udon soup, and a chicken cutlet and a soft shell crab bao. The bread of the bao wasn't as fresh as it could've been, and similarly the softshell crab was fishy. Overall, a nice little cafe. I'd go back but not for gua bao.

(New menu attached below) Amazing food, even though the entire menu tastes good, the lamb rice bowl, fish cake green curry, egg bao and chicken wonton soup are probably my favourite. The baos have a great variety of fillings with such a good blend of flavours. Atmosphere is very homely and the people are lovely. Highly recommend as a solo date and also with friends and family.

The best restaurant/takeaway in Uxbridge. I absolutely love the Prawn Tempura rice bowl and the Miso Aubergine Udon Soup. The soft shell crab bao is also delicious.

This is my favourite restaurant in Uxbridge by a country mile. Service is friendly and the room is cozy and calm, but the food... the food. The steamed buns are fluffy and more than firm enough to handle the delicious fillings they're stuffed with. Everything from the egg tuck, sweet and tasty, to the spicy lamb (which is JUST spicy enough and doesn't hit too hard) is delicious and well-priced, and the salad/sweet potato fries that can be added to your order are excellent. The wakfu salad dressing in particular has a great flavour to it. While the bao are the main event, the same fillings can be had in big rice bowls, or you might order some of their perfectly balanced spicy tofu & coconut soup to start off with. Or even just two bao, which is my current go-to. My favorite order - start with the sweet corn fritter, get one egg tuck bao and another, either spicy lamb or duck gaga (with barbecue plum sauce) depending on how I'm feeling. A yuzu tea on the side, hot or cold, helps everything down, and if I've got any room left, I'm always happy to order their Ottimmo profitabun - a kind of pastry-bao hybrid filled with chocolate sauce and ice cream. I don't write reviews often, but the world is better with Ottimmo in it and I need you all to go and eat there. Last winter, there was a fire that took them out of business for a few days, and I thought they were closed for good... I could have cried. Ottimmo forever. Give them your money.

Love the food. Small restaurant but food is good. Ventilation could do with a bit of work, while it doesn't smell bad, the dining room does keep a mix of the cooking smells.

Good service and amazing food! Really like miso aubergine soupy noodles 🍜 Strongly recommend this restaurant👍🏻

really good quality freshly Made food. And service and an even better. Lady at the cashier named Lu is always so nice warm and lovely

Good Taiwanese baos! Great for lunch as they have a lunch menu of sweet potato fries and a salad. All their baos are really well balanced and tasty. Their rice bowls are also absolutely tasty.

Great food, amazing flavours, at reasonable prices.

Went here on the weekend with my mum, the food was really good and worth the money, the bao buns were really packed with filling and the service was great, we had a lovely waitress serve us who was very chatty and bubbly, we will be back again! :)

Food wasn't hot enough. And then they had your destiny to put it in the microwave. To heat it up surfthey need training hardly any customers atmosphere was dull

Best Asian food in Uxbridge. No contest.

A hidden gem, we enjoy it so much every single time.

The food was absolutely delicious, the service was quick but seating is limited so I highly recommend to book ahead if you want to dine during peak hours to avoid disappointment. The Japanese soft shell crab bao bun was my favourite Bao in comparison to the oyster mushroom Bao. The bao was really soft and we enjoyed every bite. The size of the bao is excellent for the price, you get one piece per plate. The spicy lamb rice bowl was really flavourful and paired perfectly with the sticky rice. The rice bowl also had fried fritters, some carrots and broccoli. The lamb also had a few cashews on top and that complimented the dish really well. The green curry dish was also really delicious and had a slight heat to it which I really enjoyed. I only wished the bowl had more green curry to really enjoy the dish (the meat in the dish was more than sufficient). My suggestion is to serve the dish with just the curry and choice of meat and to provide the rice in a separate bowl. They also provide fresh juices and I would recommend the apple and carrot juice. Overall I really enjoyed this place and would come back to try other dishes.

This is about the only decent place in Uxbridge to go to for lunch. Allthe food is freshly prepared & cooked, &the ambience is friendly & relaxing. Also great choice of music & reasonably priced.

Very nice family run restaurant. The good is really nice and the staff are very friendly. I went with my wife and had the lamb bao, with sweet potato fries and salad. My wife had the aubergine bao and the coconut udon soup. We both really enjoyed our meal.

Had a lovely dumplin soup. Will definitely be coming back.

This is the best food here! That's great!

Very warm and cozy place. Excellent food. Very tasty. Only disappointment was the spring rolls came with very less quantity.

Had the jingisukan spicy lamp with cashew nuts 😍👌👌5/5 was the perfect combination of a little bit sweet and nice and spicy .

This place is an absolute gem. Visited it since it’s opening years ago and the food is always delicious and creative (often with new recipes and flavours being offered), the service is speedy, friendly and always on point, and it’s a lovely place to spend time with friends and family. Highly recommend!

Came across this hidden little gem while walking around Uxbridge. We decided to get most of the bao buns they had on the menu. They tasted soo nice that we ordered more. Each bao is packed with so much flavour and they're not stingy with the fillings. The staff member was really friendly and the pricing is reasonable. We'll definitely coming back for more bao buns and to try other dishes.

I was disappointed with what you get for what you pay. Soup was made of thick noodles and few brocoli pieces, that's around 10£, couldn't eat it, ordered tempura prawn for additional couple pounds and got two tempuras made or butter, almost no prawn. Didn't work for me. In central London you can get much better options with plenty of more expensive and nutritious ingredients for exactly same price.

What a nice place! Really, really tasty food and everyone who works there is so nice and attentive. Good vibes😎

Wow,that was amazing. Absolutely love that place, the food was delicious, so fresh and vibrant, excellent service. Will be back . Thank you. 😊

Really quaint little cafe with a fair amount of choice. I had a spice lamb boa bun and the husband had a katsu curry boa bun. Both were super tasty and reasonably priced and just the right size for a quick lunch. Would go again.

Delicious and reasonable prices!

I was surprised and absolutely delighted when my wife and I had lunch here. The menu is exciting and the dishes we had were very well executed. We both had Bao bun meals. 1) Soft shell crab 2)Crispy squid. Both were super, super, super. My iced yuzu tea was delicious. I want to go again.

Great food. Nice, fresh and tasty. A good price too.

Wonderful little hidden gem. Truly delicious dishes, run by a very warm Chinese family, cute and well decorated. Always warm and inviting, reasonably priced and truly special.

This place has been here for a while and I keep going back! Love the food here! Today: Green curry with Tofu and fish cake

Fresh tastey bao with great service. A real gem.

Great little cafe with some pretty amazing food!

An understated gem just off the main shopping area of Uxbridge. Absolutely delicious (and affordable) food - rare to find independent businesses full stop in North West London so this one really stands out. Last time I had the mushroom udon noodle soup and I can't wait to have it again. (Plus, the people working there are wonderful)

I was on a business trip to Great London area near Uxbridge. A colleague of mine told me that he knows a very good fusion Asian food restaurant. Yes, it is Ottimmo Bao Bao. I was immediately attracted by looking at the menu. I tried Duck Gaga in Bao dishes, Tofu Coconut Soup in Small Bites dishes, and Jingisukan Spciy Lamb with Cashews in Rice Bowl dishes. They are all amazingly great. I would say this is the greatest fusion Asian food I have tasted, would definitely visit Ottimmo Bao Bao when I travel to London next time.

Oh my god This is one of the best restaurants i’ve ever been to. The staff members were so friendly and super sweet I went with my friends and we all loved the food The baos were super good Very cheap and totally worth it The aesthetic of the shop is outstanding Its such a comforting place Its so underrated omg It was empty literally I totally would recommend it !!!

I've just enjoyed a delicious bao bun and spicy lamb rice bowl. The food was delicious and fresh and the service was excellent. Highly recommended!

I love this place! Fresh food, healthy and the teas are so refreshing! Try the new berry drink it’s 😋

Very delicious. I will certainly come again

Been coming here for years. Lovely little restaurant and great service. Food is delicious too!!! Never disappointed 🥰

While most of their food is very good, don't bother ordering the ice cream. You only get about half of what's pictured on the delivery app.

Nice little cafe. Food was delicious and service was great. Definitely recommend and will for sure visit again

This will be the tastiest lunch you'll ever find in Uxbridge Town centre. Love everything about their food and drink. You must try it!

As one who eats out every day to avoid the expense of home cooking I consider myself an authority on well-cooked meals & good service & I am pleased to say that this small restaurant in Windsor Street, Uxbridge offers both & that their standard has always been maintained. The staff are helpful & polite & the meals are plentiful & well-cooked & they also cater for special needs. The prices are in line with other places in & around Uxbridge. They are also able to make room for people when all the tables are taken up & in the times I have been there many people have been willing to return a little later which is always a good sign of happy customers. I hope they will extend the restaurant in time.

Great place frindly staff small choice great value great tastes

Ottimmo Bao Bao is a delight. Fresh, flavoursome food, from friendly, efficient staff. This tiny restaurant serves food as delicious as top class establishments. It’s my go-to place in Uxbridge. I can’t recommend it enough.

Lovely food, tasty, fresh & colourful and its flavours take you to Asia. Will definitely gladly come back to try the same or a different dish.

Just had a delicious katsu curry (without sauce because of health issues) and it was by fair the best and beats K*k*r* Lovely staff and little place. Will be coming back here for lunch again & reading a book :)

Really nice little restaurant offering lighter meals, predominantly in bao bao buns. Glad to see it back after the recent fire.

The food is delicious and there are pictures of what the food looks like. Every time I go I always think I'm in a gormet restaurant. Best food in Uxbridge. Affordable and lovely staff.

What a great find! Walked past here and we were not disappointed! We ordered lamb cashew dish and curry chicken with teas. Great service and flavoursome food. Will be back!

Popped in on a late Saturday afternoon. Wasn’t too busy so got a seat straight away. Ordered 4 different dishes and loved every one. Street food style with a fusion of Japanese and Asian. Service was very friendly and attentive. I could also see that the other customers were very complimentary on their way out. Thoroughly recommended.

Can't recommend enough. Everytime we have visited the food and service have been 10/10.

Our go-to lunch spot in Uxbridge! Their baos are a very good size, fluffy and packed with yummy fillings (my particular favourites are the katsu chicken and spicy lamb ones). The spicy miso aubergine coconut soup is delicious, with or without the udon. Highly recommended for a satisfying and flavoursome lunch after a shopping trip in town!

First time there very nice but glad I didn't have to pay

We went for lunch today for the first time and we all really enjoyed it! Even our 2 and 3 year old ate everything! Tried the nori dry pork toast (not to our taste) but the chicken katsu with yuzu, monk bao, chilli squid bao was fab! Juices are made fresh and the yuzu iced tea was very refreshing Will go back to try their udon next time

Since discovering it in September 2018, we've been back several times and it's a firm favourite! “Bao” means Bun in Chinese and this little unassuming eaterie has taken it upon itself to make a feature of the “Bao” experience and introduce it to this little North West suburb of London. Baos come on their on its own or as a meal with an Ottimmo Miso Nutty Salad (cucumber, apple, cauliflower, quinoa, edamame and red onions and is topped with an egg) or a Wafu Salad with Pine Nuts (a vinaigrette dressing with pine nuts, quinoa, red onion and sesame.) and Sweet Potato Chips - these are totally addictive and moreish. I also loved the theatre behind my Flower Blooming Tea. Everything bursts with flavour and yet is so incredibly healthy that it's the one place I can eat out and feel like I'm doing my body good! More than that, prices are extremely reasonable! I literally cannot sing its praises enough!

Ottimmo bao bao is a hidden gem. Without question, the best quality food you can get at lunchtime in Uxbridge. And for an unbelievably fair price. On top of that, the staff are incredible. Can’t recommend enough

Ordered takeaway and waited about 15-20 to pick up the order. The girl at the counter was very friendly. Food was very well prepared and packaged, and everything we had was so delicious. The squid bao bun was juicy, the squid was crispy and chewy. Katzu chicken was very well prepared, very flavourful. Both dishes we ordered with a side salad and fries, which were very good as well. Normally, side salads aren't very well seasoned, but this was great, and the sweet potato fries were good. The fish cakes and squid rings were delicious as well. Would definitely order again.

This place is fantastic. We dined in at around 2pm and had the set katsu chicken, Egg tuck bao, pork toast, spring roll, corn fritte, lychee mojito and rice pudding for desert. Each dish was extremely tasty and well presented. Staff were friendly and the service was very fast. I'm not from the area but we would definitely go here again when next in Uxbridge.

Do not order through deliveroo.. my food arrive cold and I haven’t been able to get hold of this restaurant. I refused delivery very disappointed ... Good money wasted

Really hope this place opens up again soon. It is absolutely brilliant and the food is so authentic, tasty and wholesome. It is a beacon of great food in an otherwise desolate and chain ridden Uxbridge.

I don’t have the words to describe how good the food is here. All the food they prepare, has so much love and thought put into it. I had the Yuzu Tea drink and the Udon Soup with tempura prawns. The soup is immaculate; the flavour is addictive and the heat isn’t overwhelming at all. For all of this it was only £13 and it was prepared for me in 10 mins. Perfect for lunch breaks 👏

It’s so good I’m even considering moving to Uxbridge.

Food was delicious, super speedy and friendly service, and an all round chilled vibe. Would definitely recommend, great value for money.

We booked ahead as really wanted to try this place after reading the reviews. It wasn’t overly busy when we arrived but as it’s a small restaurant it could easily fill up quickly. I had the virgin lychee Mojito to drink which was lovely, husband had the lime tea which was really tasty too. We had a selection as everything looked so delicious, chicken katsu bao, soft shell crab bao, octopus lollipops and dry pork toast. Couldn’t fault any of it, so tasty and fresh, we will definitely be back to try some other dishes.

I visit this little cafe regularly and it never fails to amaze my tastebuds. Have tried most things on the menu and can say that it might be slightly pricy for Uxbridge but it’s sure worth every single penny!

The best Japanese food I’ve ever tried here. The food taste awesome and the quality and the price everything was perfect to go for lunch or dinner anything. The food taste good and fresh. I do recommend this Japanese restaurant to go and try any BAO or Rice Bowl. They have many more options to eat but I do love chicken bao and rice 🍚.

Such a testy and original menu! Everything was Superb tasty! I would highly recommend this palce!

The food is fresh, full of flavour and colours. If you are around the Uxbridge High Street it is worth stopping to have your lunch there.

Excellent food, lovely staff and would certainly come back.

Excellent food in a small cafe hidden down Windsor Street. The service is first class and the menu is pleasing. Definitely one of the best places to eat in Uxbridge during the daytime.

Really good and fresh food ! Must try

Just OK, the coconut soup was good although quite fatty, the baps were OK but they were missing some more filling

Excellent food, service, and very reasonable. Will definitely come again!

I ventured off the High St and ended up in this gem. The food was fresh and colourful. I had the oyster mushroom bao, and a tofu salad. I would definitely recommend. If you do go, try their iced tea :)

Very nice food. Definitely will come back

SO GOOD!⭐ Food and drinks 💯 Cafe vibes 💯 Service 💯 Very friendly staff 💯 Very well recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

A hidden little treasure in Uxbridge. Food was hot, tasted amazing, fresh ingredients and lovely staff & atmosphere. Will be back again 😁

Octopus Lollipop is nice, the bao’s are good but the portions should be bigger for the price.

Really nice food superb burger with sweet potato fries
