I stopped by Bao Gogo recently while visiting ATL. The place looks bright and clean inside with a casual vibe that makes it easy for a quick meal. I ordered the hot and numbing flounder and it came out excellent with just the right amount of spice and numbness. The service was very friendly and extremely fast. I had everything I ordered in less than five to ten minutes. They served the flounder in a pie dish which I had never seen before but it was super clever and kept everything nice and hot. Overall I had a great experience and will definitely be back to try more items soon. The portions were solid and the food hit the spot. read more

I usually have a good experience with this restaurant, but today was really frustrating and disappointing. We ordered six dishes, and I completely understand that a larger order may take some extra time. However, we noticed that several customers who ordered after us had their food prepared and received their orders before ours. It felt like our order kept getting pushed back instead of being prepared in the order it was received. We ended up waiting over 45 minutes for our takeout. What made it even more frustrating was that no one explained the delay or even apologized for the long wait. read more

4.5 stars! Atlanta has many options in Chinese dining, but I was looking for something that is more accessible to 2 people instead of a group of 4+, where the portions are too big for us. Bao Gogo fits this category. The interior is bright, clean, and casual. Parties of 1 to 6 can feel right at home here. Their portions are perfect for 2 to 4 sharing. Their soup buns are probably made in house since they had a 20min wait time. They were tasty and soupy. Although one did break. We loved the fried wontons' thin crispy skin and slightly spicy coating. The star of the evening was the intestines stirfry w jalapeños. There was no funk at all!! #iykyk The intestines were perfectly chewy and tasty. I polished off the whole thing. Service was friendly and efficient. We would gladly return when we're in Atlanta again! read more

I swear, some Chinese restaurants have given me trust issues with the quality of chicken they serve. I'm aware that many restaurants are trying to squeeze everything that they can out of a dollar these days, but WHYYYYY did Bao Gogo bread up pieces of chicken with the feathers still attached, deep fry it, then serve it to the customer in a sauce? The sauce was very good, by the way. BUT the customer (ME) doesn't want to be pulling hard ass feathers out of their mouth when trying to enjoy a meal where they presumably paid for the meat of the CHICKEN, not feathers. It's a horrible business practice and oversight in my opinion. Just say you guys don't de-feather the meat on the menu so that we have the choice to battle through bones when eating. The dumplings and buns were so good. I want to rate this restaurant higher purely for that reason. I'd probably only come back for those alone. Service was good enough for a takeout order. I still cannot get over pulling fried feathers out of my mouth... I don't want to sound ignorant or culturally insensitive at all because maybe eating the whole chicken is okay? Somebody message me if I'm wrong! I love General Tso's chicken. But the feathers.... UGH. Hai in Decatur wouldn't do this to me. read more

Loved the fried wontons. All food came out quick. Eggplant not as spicy this time. Egg rolls not to crispy. A little soggy. Service is fast. Food comes quick. Nice quiet restaurant with plenty of seating a lunch. They have lunch specials. All the spicy food is good have been here multiple times. read more

Ordered spring rolls and general tso chicken for lunch. The portion size was very generous! The spring rolls were crispy and the filling was delicious. However, I did not enjoy the flavor of the general tso chicken. It tasted like it had way too much cinnamon which was off putting and besides that it lacked flavor. I'm used to a general tso that is more tangy/spicy, with more complex flavors. This did not have that. read more

I love spicy / Szechuan Chinese food so was very excited when Bao Gogo opened up. I finally had the chance to try it today for lunch and I had higher hopes. The crackers with the soup tasted stale, and the fish dish had a strange plasticy flavor. Maybe they were having an off day - I'd give them one more try before writing them off. The server was very attentive - almost too much. But I like an attentive server more than an absentee server. And the restaurant was bright and clean. read more

I visited for lunch and took my food to go. Was craving hot and sour soup, but noticed they had some great $11 lunch specials so decided to take advantage of that. The inside is pristine, it must have just recently opened because everything is clean and bright. The woman who took my order was friendly, and when I asked a couple questions she wasn't sure about, she went to the back to get clarification, which I really appreciated. I got the Szechuan Chili Chicken lunch special and a hot and sour soup. The chicken was spicy and tasty, but a little bit more oil than I'd prefer. It came with a large portion of white rice. The hot and sour soup hit the spot, it was the perfect blend of tangy and spicy. It had a great amount of tofu, mushrooms, and bamboo shoots, which I love. The leftovers reheated well, also. read more

This location is a newly opened branch of the Alpharetta restaurant and boy, is it ever good! The menu is a short but sweet mix of traditional Chinese cuisine and Chinese-American favorites. We ordered chongqing chicken, Xiao long bao, dry-fried string beans, and Grandma's noodles. From its Buckhead strip mall location and simple decor you might be inclined to underestimate the food but that would be a mistake. The chicken was boneless, possible an accommodation to the anticipated Western customers, and had a wetter sauce than what I'm used to but it had plenty of Sichuan peppercorn and was really rocking the ma la. Very delicious. The XLB may be the best I've had yet in Atlanta. They were plump, juicy, and tasty, 5 to an order. And in a smart move the dumplings are served with a small bowl to catch the soup that may spill from your spoon. I'm a confirmed string bean hater. I believe they should not be allowed to exist. I reluctantly tasted one of the dry-fried string beans. I won't say it was life changing ('cuz it wasn't) but it was damn good. I definitely would eat this again. And as far as Grandma's noodles go, I have no idea who Grandma is but she sure can cook. The noodles are hand pulled and are unfortunately the only dish on the menu to feature hand pulled noodles. The light, clear sauce also features a distinct smack of Sichuan peppercorn, along with scallion and garlic. The prices are good for the area and they offer a weekday lunch special for $11. The staff is extremely friendly and very eager to help with the menu and to offer suggestions if needed. They genuinely want you to love their food and it shows. Absolutely worth stopping in for a snack or full meal. read more

Everything was GREAT!! I will definitely be going back to eat here! The combination lo-mein that I ordered, it was spot on!!

Best Chinese food in Atlanta. Seems like it recently changed management in the past 6 months or so, but is still pretty good. Very easy to get take out, but also sit down as well. read more

Fresh, clean, delicious! The food was not pricy but so very good. We literally v loved everything! Spring rolls--veggie and supper crisp. Obviously just made fresh. Dry fried mushrooms have good spices and were not at all greasy. My husband got tofu broccoli and fried rice. I got kung pao tofu. Right spice level and so freshly made. ( many organs can be ordered with chicken, beef or tofu. Why don't everyone do that?) We just loved it all. The owner and staff are super friendly. This is close to our house and it's our new favorite. Some Chinese can be oily and glunky . But not here! Try it!! We're coming back. read more

Love that there's more authentic Szechuan cuisine ITP. Don't need to got o Masterpiece anymore for the spice. Very clean restaurant, soothing environment. Started w pan fried dumplings and also the soup dumplings were good. Dan Dan noodles were very good, good numbing spice. The cumin lamb was delicious, always a go to for this cuisine for me. The flounder in chili oil and mapo tofu were spicy, but tolerable, and also tasty. Highly recommend this spot for more authentic cuisine in Buckhead read more

We always are around, going to HomeGrown and other places in the area and were excited to see this place opening up. We decided to give it a shot randomly before the Super Bowl when Grindhouse closed early. We're so happy we did! Friendly staff with great suggestions. We had soup dumplings, chicken buns, Mongolian Chicken and chicken fried rice. It was my first time having soup dumplings and buns ever so it was a new experience all around. I don't think I personally would get the buns again but not because there was anything wrong with them. They were just not my preference. We absolutely loved the Mongolian Chicken and its sautéed onions. The fried rice was amazing too. Next time I would just veggie fried rice for more veggies to our meal. read more

Food was top tier, service was excellent and its such a cute place!!! Although we got good to go it was fresh and very good!! A must try!!

The food was a very good the salt and pepper wontons the Singapore rice noodles and the sauces were very tasty I would definitely go again and try some other menu items it's a unique menu read more

I normally have a good experience here. This time it was a hassle getting my money back from the guy at the register. I only ordered a wonton soup $3.27. He said can you pay cash since its under 5$ i said sure. He gave me a dollar back. I asked where is the rest of my change? He gave me .70 and asked if thats enough. I shouldnt have to ask for the full amount of change owed to me? Very strange. read more

Mom and I enjoyed our lunch specials today. Be warned that medium spicy is VERY SPICY! The whole meal was tasty and cooked perfectly. This is Szechuan style so be prepared to eat spicy hot food. The service was great even though there was only one person doing everything. She was very helpful and did her best at being attentive to all the tables. read more

We were visiting from Seattle and really wanted some good Chinese food. This place is fantastic! I frequently travel to Asia and the food is authentic and delicious. Lots of flavors and the price is very reasonable. Clean and new restaurant vibes. Our must try recommendations include grandma's noodles, pork fried rice, green beans and chicken and broccoli. Good service and nice. Very very good! read more

Didn't even make it out the parking lot, and the Hot&Numbing Flounder just knocked my socks all the way off, my spice tolerance isn't the highest nor lowest but I will say, I ordered it less spicy and it still had me coughing lol... Phenomenal. Within 45 min of closing time the service was still incredible . The soup dumplings were delicious too! Will be a new go to spot! read more

AMAZING!!!! The atmosphere is very calm and inviting . The space is beautiful and simplistic! We were immediately greeted and welcomed as soon as we walked into the restaurant. The service and food were absolutely incredible. We had the fried squid rings, beef lo mein, a hunan beef dish(very spicy), and sesame chicken. Everything was absolutely incredible! The presentation was amazing and the quality and taste were even better. We will absolutely be back to enjoy the delicious Chinese cuisine at this cute little gem! read more

People were nice but very expensive for the quality and size. Soup tiny and general tsaos really nothing special.

The dumplings and Mongolian beef were delicious. The space is much more attractive than I thought it would be and the serving dishes were also pretty. We will definitely be returning. read more

Effing delicious. I can't believe that this fantastic Sichuan restaurant is in a nondescript strip mall like this. Everything is clean and beautiful, and the restaurant is very new. They clearly have great attention to every detail, including hand-pulled noodles, great sauces, fantastically powerful flavor bomb foods, and a terrific variety of small bite foods alongside ultimate takes on classic dishes. 10 stars. read more

We ordered take out. Every dish was good. We really enjoyed and will be back. Delicious.

I'd only suggest this option for lunch, for dinner it's overpriced with little value for what you pay for. Canton Buddha was far better!

Hi - I was surprised to see that my old favorite Canton Buddha now changed to Bao Gogo and tried it for takeout dinner tonight (5/14). Super easy to order online and nice folks inside. They remodeled and it's light and clean. Food was plentiful and tasty. Will return and am glad they are in the neighborhood! read more

Delicious soup dumplings, pot stickers, and egg rolls! Restaurant space is clean and inviting and service was great. Glad to have this restaurant in the neighborhood! read more

Not as good as Canton Buddah (what used to be in its place). I got their chicken fried rice and three pepper chicken. Fried rice 0/10 recommend it's flavorless, dry, and doesn't have all the vegetables that normally go into fried rice. The three pepper chicken 8/10 really good flavor not overly spicy - I mixed it in with the fried rice and it made the fried rice decent. I also got curbside pick up which was really nice, but they don't put fortune cookies in with your order which is a staple for a Chinese restaurant. read more

I like vegetable dumplings.sweet and sour chicken black truffle dumplings. Mongolian bed, very delicious
