Delicious Bao

It was one of our favorite restaurants in Brussels. We ordered the "Bao Hercules" as a starter, and we were surprised at how wonderful it was. Of the main courses, we ordered the "Miso Love" and the "That's Nuts", both of which were delicious. The waitresses spoke very good English and were very friendly, providing excellent service even though the restaurant was full. We enjoyed the experience.

Foi um dos nossos restaurantes favoritos em Bruxelas. Pedimos o “Bao Hercules” como entrada, e ficamos surpreendidos como prato é maravilhoso. Dos pratos principais, pedimos o “Miso Love” e o “That’s Nuts”, ambos deliciosos. As atendentes falavam muito bem inglês e eram super simpáticas, prestando um ótimo serviço de atendimento, mesmo com o restaurante lotado. Gostamos da experiência.

Pros: Service

Incredible

"that's nuts": incredible, made me teared up for real. Shared with another: hercules, aubergenius, that's nuts and smashed cucumber salad and it was perfect.

Pros: Terrace, Food's quality, Waitress' kindness

Fabaolous 💝

We hebben gesmuld van verschillende bao buns, edamame-boontjes en wontons. De broodjes waren zó fluffie en de smaken van de vullingen waren verrukkelijk! Daarbij nog home made lychee limonade gedronken. Jammie!
En niet vergeten: super aardig personeel!
Echt een aanrader!!

Pros: Super fluffie bao's, Verrukkelijke vullingen, Heerlijke lychee limonade

Bāo Chicky Wow Wow

Wow, I don't even know where to start! Lil bāo didn't just exceed our expectations, it blew right past them and left them in the dust 😍

We ordered the Hot Chick, the Rambāo, and the Deep Sea Baby. The Rambāo was deeply flavourful, if you miss hamburgers this is the bāo for you. The Deep Sea Baby had a crunch-to-chew ratio that made me audibly moan. But the star of the show was The Hot Chick, the fried chicky was unreal - hands down the best vegan chicken we've ever had!

The staff were so sweet and friendly, too! This place is such a gem and a must-visit when in Brussels!

Pros: Flavours, Textures, Decor

Amazing food

I ordered a "hot chick", "rambao", lil dims and lil wontons. All of them were absolutely amazing, especially the wontons! Maybe the food is a little bit expensive, but it is worth it! Can't wait to come back to try the other options :)

Pros: Excellent food, Friendly staff, Nice vibe

Must visit!

What a lovely place! I had visited their other restaurant Liu lin several times and loved it. So this was high on my wish list since they opened and it did not disappoint.

The restaurant was filled, and even though I didn’t make a reservation they did their utmost best to accommodate me. I enjoyed a coconut water, smashed cucumber and miso soup. The miso soup had a nice umami taste and had interesting bacon shaped tofu. It was a good combo with the smashed cucumber, which was fresh and had a little kick to it. As a dessert I got the mochi which were very tasty, a little bit dry inside but that made it the best combination with dipping it in the coconut sauce.

I also ordered two baos to go and they were very helpful in determining which ones would be best to consume later and would fit my own lunchbox.

Pros: they kindly accepted my own box for to go

Delicious, but expensive

Tried a few types of baos, miso soup and "coco loco" - everything tasted amazing.

Staff was also extremely friendly, and more than that: looked excited to be working there, something I don't see often. :D

The only downside is the price: if you're hungry, you'll need multiple dishes to get full, so it gets expensive quite fast.

Tasty food!

This is a really nice spot for a quick bite. They specialise in bao buns so you have to get at least one of these! I went for the aubergine one. I also got some dim sums and calamari on the side. Everything was tasty - especially the calamari. Quick service, my only small thing is it is a little expensive here.

Fast and tasty

We dropped in for a quick dinner before heading to a concert. Food came quickly and was delicious. We had an aubergine bao and a jerky bao plus some dim sum. 🥟

Good stuff!

People were lining up outside Liu Lin (as usual😉) so we decided to try out their sister restaurant instead, which I hadn't tried earlier. A little bit less packed, but still full, we managed to get a table which just became vacant. No regrets!

Baos were great, as were the Wontons. Nice atmosphere, friendly staff, quick delivery of the food (ordered via QR code that you can find on the table.)

Incroyable !!!

Nous sommes venues des l'ouverture sans réservation, mais mieux vaut toujours réserver.
Les bao étaient un délice !! Nous avons pris des nems, et surtout des wuntons : bluffant. Nous avons rechecker la carte pour être sur que c'était bien vegan tellement le goût était proche.
Même mon amie omni était surprise ! (Attention si vous n'aimez pas/n'êtes plus habitué.e.s au goût de la viande, perso ça m'a fait bizarre)
Endroit et personnel tops ! Peut être un peu overpriced mais ça va

Pros: Savoureux

Cons: A bit overpticed

Fantastic food, super service

We had some Bao, a rice bowl, the miso soup and the fried bao dessert and everything was fantastic. Prices are absolutely fine and the staff was super nice to us. We really felt they cared about us, were proactively asking whether we needed forks since we struggled with chopsticks and were just kind in general. Definitely a must visit.
