BOA-BAO

We arrived right at 6:30pm opening time and were greeted inside the restaurant. Nice ambiance with decoration of Chinese/Asian arts and crafts. We had Pho, Pad Thai, Tong Yum Gong and fried rice. They all tasted authentic and flavourful. The fried rice especially- it has Cantonese preserved black olive! This is very classic Cantonese cuisine! Highly recommended!

The experience was disappointing. Staff seemed stressed and unfriendly, and service was very slow. My green Thai curry tasted more like warm coconut milk soup than curry, with undercooked shrimp and almost no vegetables. Dim sum was okay, drinks fine, but overall it wasn’t enjoyable. I would rather try the other Asian Restaurants around next.

We went for a friend’s birthday dinner and we were a large group. The menu is huge, so it is best to arrive knowing what you want, otherwise it will take ages to decide. That is exactly what happened to us. Most of us had a bao as a starter followed by a main course. For someone my size, that is too much food, as a main dish alone is usually enough for one person. What really surprised me were the prices. I ordered a tiger prawn dish that had almost no prawn at all, just a lot of prawn pâté. I also ordered japchae. The total came to 7 euros plus 22 for one person without drinks. I only had water. The japchae was good, slightly sweet but tasty, and I would give it a positive review, although it was nothing life-changing. The bao could have been better, both in the bread and in the filling. I would come back, but with caution. 4 out of 5.

Great asian food of all kinds, everything was delicious. Would definitely go again!

Prices were a bit on the higher side for the place being so chill but overall we enjoyed our time but would recommend the restaurant to find a solution for the stuffy and somewhat hot seating area. Great service and good vegetarian options
