    Cheeseburger dumplings and Pork Xiao Long Bao Soup Dumplings
    Elise M.

    We came here for all you can eat dumplings and left absolutely stuffed. We were a bit disappointed that there are only two kinds of dumplings available at a time for the all you can eat deal, on their instagram it looked like they would have a wider variety. They always have the pork soup dumpling available and they rotate the second dumpling flavor. It was a cheeseburger dumpling for us, which was much better than we expected from the description. 23 thought the pork soup dumplings were fantastic, but we got tired of the cheeseburger ones more quickly. Service was fast and I liked the atmosphere. However, I wouldn't come back during the summer if I had to sit on the second level again. It was so hot in there, I was sweating!

    Having been regulars at a different downtown restaurant for our pre-show dinners & cocktails, we were ready to switch it up. Bao Brewhouse offers a fun, casual lively ambiance. Seating in the downstairs/ bar is walk in, no reservations. We were able to snag a table for 2 on a recent winter Saturday evening, arriving just before 5. From our vantage point we could watch the bartenders working their magic, efficiently in near-constant motion. My aviation showed off her lovely lavender hue and tasted good, too. I also tried their version of a rye Old Fashioned which was fine but not mind-blowing. For food we shared the DIY veggie spring rolls. Tasty, though a bit messy. We also ordered the spicy Yaki-Soba and the maple miso chicken skewers, which comes with rice. The food all tasted great and we left a bit overstuffed. (Our fault!). It's a fun change of pace from our usual. The prices feel a bit high. The serving style is such that you order via QR code on the table, and open a toast tab. An assortment of servers deliver your orders and freshen waters. It works, we never felt neglected. Everyone was friendly. Overall, Bao is a place I'll come to occasionally, but it doesn't quite replace the appeal of our regular date night spot.

    We Have The Duck Roujiamo

    My husband and I got takeout and shared: - Philly Cheesesteak Dumplings - We Have The Duck Roujiamo - Spicy Yaki-Soba All of it was phenomenal. The Duck Roujiamo was probably my favorite, but you really can't go wrong! The flavors were all fantastic. There were so many things on the menu that I wanted to try and if takeout was this good, I can't imagine how good it is fresh. I'll definitely be back!

    Food was decent, but something is seriously wrong with the management of this restaurant. We had a reservation at 6:45, and did not got seated until around 7:05 because there was not a hostess. We heard them yelling at the bottom to get a hostess and saw her come in late. In addition, we wanted to get the Tuesday dumpling deal that has been advertised and we specifically called ahead about. We had a 3 hour dinner and I got two orders of mushroom dumplings, as I don't eat pork. Waiting that long for 5 dumplings (literally 1.5hrs) is insane. Felt bad for the sever because he came out and said their steamer broke and they only have a couple. AT A DUMPLING/DIM SUM RESTAURANT! They need more staff, better kitchen staff and more room in the kitchen. On top of all this, it was still pretty pricey! Would avoid unless it's maybe super slow?

    My husband and I had high hopes for this place and we were really excited to go but unfortunately our experience at Bao Brewhouse fell short. We ordered two $20 pots of tea which we were expecting to be amazing but they were nothing special. For food, we had the big on the pig dumplings, pork xiao long bao soup dumplings and hot and sour soup. The dumplings were good but not worth it for the price. The hot and sour soup tasted nothing like hot and sour soup which was really disappointing! Definitely would not recommend. The service was fairly good. We sat at the bar. The vibes of the restaurant were really cool and it was nicely decorated for the holidays. Unfortunately, I can't say I'd go out of my way to go back.

    This dumpling house in LoDo completely blew me away! The atmosphere is absolutely perfect -- modern, stylish, and thoughtfully designed with that elevated Chinese aesthetic that feels both cozy and chic. The food was 10/10. I tried several dishes and every single one was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The upstairs menu is different from the downstairs menu, but the staff were so accommodating and even made a few exceptions for me, which I really appreciated! Highly recommend trying the duck ramen and the tofu bao, both were outstanding. Between the food, the vibe, and the service, this spot is a total win. Easy to walk around before or after the meal-parking right across the street.

    In-N-Baout Roujiamos
    Cat F.

    While visiting Denver, I was craving Asian food but wanted a fusion twist so it wouldn't feel like something I could easily get back home. I looked up Asian fusion restaurants and this place fit the bill. An upscale establishment that clearly tailors to its Denver patrons. You can sense that just by looking at some of the menu items. If it's your first time, know that the Tea Room menu starts after 5 PM and is located upstairs. The menu is more expansive and the ambiance is elegant and romantic compared to the party vibe atmosphere of the Tap Room downstairs. Seated in the booth, it was hard to flag down staff, so you have to rely on them walking by, which doesn't happen often. Here's what we ordered: * In-N-Baout Roujiamos ($14.88) - 7/10 Gimmicky item. The flavors are reminiscent of In-N-Out burgers. Tasty but nothing special. The shrimp chips that came with it were stale. After a few bites, our server returned with a fresh bowl, explaining she had heard feedback from other guests and made a new batch. That was very nice of her. * Shrimp Shumai ($15.88) A dim sum staple and one of my favorites. The flavors were there but the texture was different from what I normally expect. Probably due to the small size. It was a bit on the over tender/mushy side. Each piece is about a single bite, making it roughly $3 a piece. The tobiko was refreshing and the sauce was delicious. * Drunken Empress ($17.88) + Duck Breast ($9.88) - 9/10 I came for this dish specifically. It was excellent and nailed about 95% of what I was hoping for. The only minor drawback was that the noodles were slightly undercooked and chewy. Interesting things I noticed: * Side Chili Oil ($1.88) - Wouldn't you think hot sauce or chili would be complimentary at any Asian restaurant? Not here. They charge $1.88 for a side of chili oil and chili crisp. Honestly thinks it tastes very much like Lao Gan Ma. Hm... * Toothpick - After finishing my meal, I asked for a toothpick. The front desk staff said they were out but would grab one from the back. A few minutes later she returned with a bamboo cocktail pick and said, "this is your toothpick." I wasn't sure if it was a joke, but yes, I tried to use it. No, it didn't really work. Was I trolled? Possibly. Would I come back? Definitely not for the Tap Room experience, but I'd be willing to try the Tea Room menu. I've heard it's run by different chefs and the quality of the food is higher.

    This place still is one of my favorite spots to get dumplings and solid Asian dishes. The Atmosphere is definitely my favorite aspect besides the food and they do rotate their menu according to the seasons. Took my girlfriend here for Valentines Day and we ordered Shishito pepper Brussels sprouts, pork belly bao buns, Xiao Long Bao, and the cheeseburger dumplings. Man, I'm already wanting to go back. We also had some Valentine's Day themed cocktails that were pretty good. The waiters and bartenders were so great at giving recommendations for cocktail preferences and were attentive to us. Great experience and always one of my faves.

    My daughter and I were headed to the Buell for a show and came for dinner. I made reservations ahead for the tea room giving us plenty of time to sit, chat and enjoy dinner. We were seated where we could see the brick wall of the stairway which had cool projected images that continuously changed. The lighting upstairs is a bit dimmer than the taproom downstairs giving more of an evening vibe. Jenny took care of us and told us about their Wednesday special. A prix fix selection that included a sake flight, a choice of a dim sum, an entrée and a side to share. Our flight included Road to Osaka, Dreamy Clouds, Then Thousand Waves and Soul of the Sensei. All had their own unique qualities and all paired well with our dinner. We chose Pork Xiao Long Bao for our dim sum. House-made pork soup dumplings, served with sweet black vinegar & chili oil. For our entrée, we selected the Short Rib Spicy Noodle dish, which included Lup cheong, garlic, ginger, scallion, baby boy-choy, tri-color peppers, fresno chili, Thai basil, pistachio, sambal hoisin, cilantro, daikon sprouts, miso Mongolian sauce. Our side was Shishitos & Brussels, fresh Brussel sprouts & shishito peppers lightly fried, tossed in their citrus sauce, then topped with fresh jalapeno and pistachio paired with a spicy aioli sauce. Everything was so delicious we felt bad that we were not able to take the left overs with us. Our overall favorite was the Shishitos & Brussels. I could just eat a bowl of those with that spicy aioli and be happy. Great food and drink and great overall experience.

    We ordered from the Dim Sum menu since we were hopping around Downtown Denver and wanted to sample as many restaurants we can. Bao Brewhouse was our first stop and they definitely set the bar. Their restaurant is split into two settings, tap room (lower level/chill/bar stools/casual) and tea room (upper level/more intimate/dining tables/fancy casual), both designed beautifully and have great vibes. We chose to sit at the patio, given my sisters were visiting from the Midwest and crave all the sun when visiting CO. The service was so convenient! You scan a QR code and place your order, puff comes the staff with your food. And still frequently filled our waters and cleared our plates. When we were ready for our bill, we just paid it online and closed out our tab. Just a smooth system and I love that others have this style of placing orders and closing tabs. Everything we had were chef's kiss delish Our most favorite and different dish you don't typically see was the Bluefin Tuna Crispy Rice. I love Crispy Rice served this way and not many do and then simply topped with great tuna, spicy mayo, jalapeño and eel sauce...yumyumyum. I'm coming here again! Sorry sisters, I'm not waiting when y'all come back to visit There's so much more to explore.

    The DIY veggie spring rolls were absolutely amazing! We had a fantastic time. MJ's service kept the evening lively and enjoyable throughout. Her drink recommendations were spot on. We will definitely be back.

    I came here after a night out and made it just in time before the kitchen closed. You order and pay online using a QR code and they bring the food out to you. So sometimes it was a little hard to flag someone down for help or for menu questions. The food was also really good! My reason for a lower rating was moreso because of the hard time getting help and because of the price range- dont really get too much bang for your buck. but full disclosure, I was visiting from LA so it's also based on a comparison of dim sum options from there Shrimp Shumai were light and the truffle sauce was so good the riff of the In N Out animal style was also good and my favorite of the night The crispy rice tuna was also good but nothing extraordinary. it seemed to have a similar flavor profile as a spicy tuna roll

Carts rotate and display their options to you frequently as you enjoy your meal. So tou can order plates as quickly as you finish them. I recommend the pork buns and pork ribs. My favorite this time around were the leek dumplings with a side of noodles. We finished off with a coconut bun that wasn't too sweet. It was the perfect finish to the meal with ample amounts of tea. Use the kiosk up front to reserve your spot!

    This place used to be the classic on dim sum, but the food seemed to be very generic now…read more XLB or soup dumplings is always the classic for most dim sum or Taiwanese eateries. Here unfortunately looks to be pre made by some factory somewhere and not freshly made? From picture, you can see the skin stick to the tin container and thus the soup has all leaked out. The beef with flat noodles was also a bit disappointing in that the beef has no texture as in they used too much baking soda in overly tenderizing the meat. The noodles also seemed thinner than the ones I'm more used to back home in Texas. Overall, it was just an ok place, which was a disappointment since I drove my mom from ft collins just to have some dim sum with here for the weekend I'm here visiting.

The staff was super friendly, knowledgeable, and helped answer a few questions we had about different dishes. We had about a 20 minute wait for our table, so we grabbed a couple cocktails at the bar first. I had the Harmony in Beijing and my girlfriend had the Oolong Old Fashion. Both were really refreshing and a great way to start dinner. One thing we really liked was the ordering style. Once you're seated, you just keep picking out small plates you want to try, just like a lot of dumpling shops in China and Japan. It honestly brought back memories from my trips over there. The atmosphere and decor was beautiful and felt authentic without trying too hard. Our favorites were the Spicy Cucumber Salad, Spicy Green Beans, Beef & Vermicelli Dumplings, Hot Sea Pork and Shrimp Dumplings, Pork & Chive Dumplings, and the Crab Rangoons. Everything was fresh and came out pretty quick. We also ordered the Chicken Lo Mein, but I only had one bite because we bought it to give to a homeless woman we met at the park near where we were staying. The biggest downside is the price. It's very, very expensive for what you get. Dumplings that were basically the same size and quality as ones I ate all over Japan for $4-$7 were over $14 here. A pretty small plate of stir fried green beans being around $20 was kinda hard to justify. The only dishes we really didn't care for were the Chinese Style Broccoli, which was pretty plain and lacked flavor, and the Pork & Mushroom Dumplings. They tasted good, but they were dry enough that I probably wouldn't order them again. Overall, we really enjoyed our dinner and would definitely come back, but probably only for a special occasion. The food and experience were great, but the pricing keeps it from being a place we'd visit regularly or for a casual night out.

They have the dim sum, set price family dinners, special chef menu and then the main menu with; Chicken, beef, lamb, vegetables, lobster, FROG!, tofu, pan fried noodles, soup, just to name a few. This is a seafood restaurant and saw them fishing the lobsters out of the tank. We started off with a family favorite of small size of seafood fish maw soup which could have easily fed 6-8 people. We were a party of 4 . We had extra to take home too. Then we moved onto the highlight which was the crispy Peking duck. We were 4 people and this 1/2 duck was the perfect size. The skin was juicy and crisp and not dry and leathery. This was a delight to have and the star of our dinner. We then moved on the a chef special menu item which was smoked spare ribs. This was a disappointment. We got overly sweetened little tiny riblets with no smokiness. They were super thin and not what we expected. Will kit order this again. The black mushroom with vegetables was ok. I expected the black mushrooms to be more tender and felt they could have been simmered more to make them softer. They were a bit chewy The yang chow fried rice was a bit on the dry side. We ordered the beef noodles with gravy and this dish was perfect with the crispy noodles under a bed of beef and vegetables. This was delicious. We also ordered and nibbled on a couple of dim sum dishes for dinner. The deep fried meat dumplings were not greasy and had a crunchy exterior. We also ordered the lotus wrapped rice which was comfort food satisfying. We had a lively bilingual Chinese speaking waitress who was super friendly and had water, tea, ice water glasses filled at all times. She was helpful when selecting the food items.

I have a semi-severe shrimp allergy. I was told by the employee there that the pork and chive dim sum DID NOT have shrimp in it and I even asked her again to make sure. Sure enough, there was shrimp in it and I was in pretty severe pain for a few hours. They really need to take those issues into better consideration. Other than that, I really do like Empress and would go back but will need to open up everything I get to make sure there is no shrimp in anything.

    I don't think they get the hype they truly deserve. This spot has the BEST roast duck I've ever…read morehad, and trust me, I've had my fair share all over the Bay Area. We opted for a 3 item bbq plate - roast duck, roast pork and bbq pork (char siu). The bbq pork was fine, nothing special but the highlight was the roast duck and pork. The skin on the duck is still crispy, and had a good ratio of fat to meat and bones. Some places make it with a strong star anise flavor, but HKB does not. The flavor on the duck is sooo good and not too salty. The roast pork was juicy and the skin super crunchy! They gave a solid portion too. I'd spend my $20 on this any day! The 2 item and 3 item bbq options are on a separate lunch menu, but I'm not sure if it's offered daily or just weekdays. The rice plates come with some steamed chinese broccoli and a big scoop of rice. They also provide the bbq with a little dipping sauce. It pairs well with the greens, but is a tad bit salty so use sparingly. We also ordered beef chow fun, dry style. The beef slices are tender, the chow fun has that good wok hei flavor, nice and smoky. I do wish the noodles were a tad bit wider but overall, very solid dish. Sesame balls look/taste like the pre made frozen kind. It had a good chew, solid red bean filling and you get a ton for $5. The service here is nice and friendly. They give you giant cups of water and will check on you to refill it as well. It's in a plaza, lots of shared parking spaces and they do take CC for payment.

She recommended a couple great dishes and we ordered a bit too much as always. Every single dish was good and had flavors that hit just right. Seating is well spaced so it's not cramped. 5 stars!

    I really wanted to like this place because the lunch prices are great, but I left disappointed. I…read moreordered the lunch shrimp chow mein, and what I received wasn't chow mein at all. Any Google search for "shrimp chow mein" shows stir-fried egg noodles with shrimp and vegetables. Instead, I was served mixed vegetables with a separate bag of crispy noodles. The fried rice in my photo was my own substitution for the white rice that normally comes with the lunch special, so that's not the issue. I already ate the shrimp before taking the photo, which is why they aren't pictured. The lunch portion only came with about four shrimp. If this restaurant serves a different regional style of chow mein, that should be clearly explained on the menu so customers know what they're ordering. When you order chow mein, you expect actual chow mein noodles--not vegetables with a side of rice and a bag of crunchy noodles. Unfortunately, this wasn't what I ordered or expected, and I wouldn't order it again.

    First time visiting Bryan's Dumpling House, and it was hands down some of the best food I've had in…read morea long time! Three of us ate for about $88, and we all left happy, satisfied, and completely full. The dumplings were excellent, the food was fresh and flavorful, and the service was outstanding from start to finish. It's not often you find a place that delivers great food, great value, and great service all in one experience. We'll definitely be back. Highly recommend giving Bryan's Dumpling House a try!

    This was a DoorDash delivery, but I felt I had to share this on Yelp as a warning since the…read moreDoorDash reviews aren't representative. Shrimp Shumai: this was the first item I took out of the bag and disappointment was the first feeling I felt. I should've trusted my gut when I saw the name of the dish but the photo didn't match. I based it off the photo and what was delivered was not what was in the photo. Instead, I got these small, nickel sized diameter "dumplings" that are straight up mushy. Xiao long bao: maybe it was delivery issue, but all dumplings were broken, and the soup leaked. Aside from this, the wrapping is thick especially at the top where the twist is. The filling is also mushy but better than the shrimp Shumai. I still wouldn't get this again. Chili wontons: again, maybe a delivery issue but there wasn't a lot of chili oil since it leaked out of the bag. Aside from that, the wrapper was thick. Filling was meh. Mapo tofu: just okay but again, very hard to mess up mapo tofu in general imo. Lacks meat. Probably the best thing out of what I ordered unfortunately
