    Really quirky location, ample room around 7pm on a Friday but it did pick up massively by 8. We had a lovely waitress, I forget her name - but she was really attentive and had great recommendations. We had pretty much the whole menu, it was all absolutely stunning with real authentic taste. The mixologist was also happy to make us cocktails that weren't on the menu, always a positive! The Prawn crackers are something to write home about, to be honest it all is. The wings, the rice, the buns, the popcorn chicken - so tasty. I highly recommend this place, its located in a really cool tunnel covered in graffiti, with other bars and clubs there too. Really cool and glad we found it!

    Great vibes and good food. Went for late lunch on a Sunday - place was quiet, food and customer service great but no cocktails available (dinner service only). Have been for cocktails before and it’s a great place for a drink and small plate. We had 6 plates between 2 people and were completely stuffed. Loved the chicken dishes in particular (karaage style chicken and the buffalo wings). I think they rotate the menu as last time I ordered different dishes, all good and very tasty though! Would recommend for an interesting venue/night out.

    Ambiance was upbeat and fun. The location was cool and unique. Food was really good. Baos were hot and fresh. The papaya salad was perfectly spicy. Definitely recommend. I came by on my first night in town. I did feel a bit neglected as a customer because I was there alone vs the attention other tables received. I was fine with this but just an FYI.

    Excellent food, excellent service, Kin one of the staff working there was particularly pleasant. The place is indeed located inside of graffiti tunnel and this leaves it with a dark mysterious interior which has been decked out with pink trees and has a pleasant rather punkish aesthetic. We had the pork, lamb, mushroom and beef bao and all were cooked beautifully. I especially reccomend the lamb one which was melt in your mouth gorgeous and had good complementing sauce. The aubergine curry was very Thai style which I loved, I do think it could have had something with a bit of crunch added however to make the texture more interesting. The popcorn chicken was like the other food delicious and I was pleasantly surprised at the fact it wasn't greasy like other popcorn chicken I have had in the past. The non alcohol options for drinks were limited to some extent and I would say nothing overly special to them. I personally would stick to water. Overall I would highly reccomend the place as a meet up for friends, colleagues or for a date. The atmosphere I recon would be a little out of place for a family going out to dinner.

    Quirky, fun and different, this place has a really fun vibe, with neon lighting and based in the graffiti tunnel makes it quite a trendy feeling place to go. Perfect for light bites and drinks. The food here is delicious. Despite the name of the place it’s not the Bao buns that shine on this menu! The mango salad and popcorn chicken are amazing. I have read previous reviews about this place being expensive but I think it is fairly priced, for the location and atmosphere it is worth it. There aren’t many, if any restaurants in this area that have the same sort of fun feel to it. I have also seen complaints about the smell of paint. I meannnn it is by the graffiti mile… and the smell isn’t something constant. I went with a big group of 8 and it didn’t bother any of us. If you are in this area it is worth a visit. I would highly recommend!
