Had Some noodles, pork and allium dumplings, and Lo Mai Fan. Everything was delicious. The noodles were delicate and the cucumber was fresh and crispy. Great flavors! The Lo Mai Fan was a new experience. The sticky rice had a caramelized sweetness and the pork shoulder was extremely tender. So unique and satisfying! It's a relatively small space, but used well. Good vibe and full service bar. The unisex bathrooms were clean and well lit. Friendly staff. The ordering situation was a little odd... You need to preorder at the register. That said, it was very convenient when time to leave. All in all a place that I would recommend and return to when we visit Portland again.

Came after work with a few coworkers and it was just what we were looking for. Think we tried everything on the menu basically. The dumplings are great prefer the steamed ones but all were excellent. I will pass on the crab rangoon next time just because not much flavor and overcooked a bit. Will definitely be going back for more. But the hot teas, wine and cocktails were all excellent.

Must visit restaurant in Portland! Interesting variations of dumplings🥟 Pan-fried Beef Bulbogi is a must try (personal favourite! ). The team are VERY CREATIVE with their food & drinks menu Eighty Ate slaw is a perfect cold dish to have. Had some fried mochi balls as dessert too (so good! ) Awesome staffs, great atmosphere, great place for some snacks and meals anytime in Bao Bao! Highly recommended 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🥟

Yes! It's a smaller menu but they have some GF options. Not sure if any of the dumplings are though!

How much is the lunch special?

It depends on the special. They're typically cheaper than the dinner prices so it's very much recommended if you like BaoBao. They don't have the prices listed online, but if you're familiar with their typical pricing then it should be in that ballpark.
