    Bao - Regular (8pc)

    What I learned about this place was that you are probably best with the four pack, because the eight pack will definitely leave you full. Great food and service, but not so great on the ambiance-it's a food court after all. I introduced my friend to this place, and she loved it. Amazing that this place exists. It's nice to see mall food, stepping up to the plate.

    I stopped by here yesterday with my husband. We were looking for something small to share before going shopping. We stopped to check this place out, and they had samples. Who doesn't like samples?! The employee working was super welcoming, kind, and helpful. He told us about all of the samples, and additional options. We had a type of fried chicken with homemade noodles. It was great to share with my husband. We both enjoyed it. This restaurant is in a mall food court, so there's no real ambiance, and cleanliness is out of their control. So I can't judge either. I have never had bao before, so I have nothing to compare this to. But it was tasty, customer service was stellar, and it was memorable. I'll definitely return. Review 4 of 2025.

    Scoped out some of the options at Valley River Center and to my surprise I stumbled upon Bao-Ing-Out. They offered some samples and I ordered the Steamed Vegetarian Bao buns. They make them fresh! Steamed delicious fluffy bund with just the right ratio filling. I'll be back to try some other items from the menu. Service was friendly and food was steamed to order.

    We got take-out from Bao-Ing-Out, and despite the drive home, the food was soooo good! The steamed pork buns were my favorite, followed by the beef dumplings. The dough on the golden fried vegetable buns was well executed, I just wasn't a fan of the vegetable filling. I loved the variety of sauces we got too. I was a bit disappointed to see rice instead of egg drop soup (maybe it's a take-out thing) but the rice was actually really well flavored! Did I mention the packaging was adorable?? That alone would have me going back!

    First timers to this restaurant and was pleased with what they had to offer. Food was tasty and plentiful. The two men working were kind and helpful. The restaurant is in the mall. . . Lots of tables, casual, and comfortable.

    There's nothing quite like walking aimlessly around a mall during the holiday season. After getting some good people watching in, and picking up another long sleeve shirt for the winter months, I found myself hungry and wandering toward the food court. I chose Bao-Ing-Out because I'd heard of it before and there wasn't much of a line. The man taking orders was kind and there was very little wait time in between ordering and getting my meal. There's not much you can do about the ambiance of a mall; you either like eating in the food court or you don't. Thankfully, Bao-Ing-Out provides a to-go option for those who'd rather enjoy their food at home, like me. I ordered the steamed curry chicken bao limited time special, which came with egg drop soup, and an order of their homemade veggie noodles, all to-go. The tantalizing smell of soup and curry tortured me all the way home. The steamed curry chicken bao was great and I hope they make it a regular menu item in the future. The curry taste was prominent and the bao were stuffed full of meat. I've had bao at other places that skimp out on filling, so I'm happy to report that Bao-Ing-Out gives you your money's worth. The veggie noodles were sadly underwhelming; the only vegetables were cabbage and green onions. So, while they do offer a vegetarian option, I would not call this place vegetarian "friendly." The noodles themselves were cooked perfectly and I could definitely tell they were made fresh, but I wish there were more veggies. The egg drop soup was actually the best I've ever had. It was so fresh and light and I honestly didn't know egg drop soup could taste like that, so major props! All-in-all, I would eat at Bao-Ing-Out again after another lazy afternoon of being an adult mall-rat, but I'll probably try something else on their menu next time.

    Short: authentic, delicious, flavorful, fresh, and quick with knowledgeable staff. Visited opening week Oct 27th '23. It was quite busy, and the order here/pick up signs are hanging up high. You order by the steam baos and griddle. [Menu] Menu is a bit small but has pictures and very good selection! [Food & Cost] 2 regular meals : $14/each One with Golden Fried Bao - Beef, 5pc. Deep fried pan-fried beef bao. Topped with chili oil. Absolutely flavorful and still moist! It had nice bits of ginger and not overly greasy. Another with Pancake Roll w/ Braised Beef. WOW!! this was definitely a winner! The beef was not chewy at all and so flavorful! Almost like the nice cut of beef in pho. Made on a green onion asian pancake. A delicious hoisin soy sauce. Each regular meal comes with 1 side and 1 soup. I got the kimchi, radish salad, and egg drop soup. The egg drop soup had seaweed & egg, it was flavorful but the broth was clear. The radish salad was delicious! Very flavorful and looks made in house. Kimichi was typical kimchi, not overly spicy.

    Yum! I was pleasantly surprised by Bao-ing-Out. Not because the food doesn't look good or because of reviews, but because I ordered it from DoorDash and had no idea it was coming from the food court at the mall. And no offense to the mall food, it just wasn't what I would expect. It was so good, like should have been at a sit down restaurant type of good. I ordered a half size of the steamed bao and the chicken and noodles. The bag of stuff I received included those two items, plus two to-go coffee cups and multiple sauces. The coffee cups had the egg flower/drop soup (fairly bland) and the delicious sauce for the noodles. The service sizes were large, definitely just get half the bao unless you're sharing with more than 2 people. The bao were perfect, light bun with flavor and great meaty flavor inside. I didn't realize the chicken in the noodle dish was deep fried but that's ok (would have preferred grilled). But there is a lot in there and it was all good. I'll definitely return and try more options. Menu is a bit limited but that's ok, want to try dumplings next!

    I have been going to this mall my entire life. I worked there all through high school. I have 4 kids that have been going through their lives. Never have I been more impressed with a food court until this last year. It's so awesome to see it taken over by mostly local mom and pop type places and so many international options. Bao-ing Out is so fun and tasty. My son usually goes to the Mexican place (their food is also great) and I come here. He tried some of my food last time and will be ordering here next time. From the owner who so happily offers samples and explanations of the menu, to the delish options and really fun food packaging, you really can't beat this place. I hope they stay for a long time to come!

    Tried this with my boyfriend yesterday, we just got the 8pc bao to share, comes with egg flower soup or rice for $15.95. Very affordable especially for how big the baos are. We got them steamed, they were very filling and pretty good. My boyfriend really enjoyed them, I liked them but I think I just prefer soup dumplings in general, maybe 1 day they will sell some too, since they are a bao and dumpling place. Soup was okay, a bit too watery/thin for my liking. Overall a good value, and fairly good too, especially for being located in the mall's food court!

    My new favorite place to grab nom nom while at the mall

    For a mall food court option this was pretty good! I wouldn't say they were the best baos in Eugene. But for an inexpensive and tasty vegetarian meal while shopping at Valley River, this place is a home run. For less than $10 you can get 3 Bao, a side, and a soup. That's a lot! The wait was pretty long though. I wonder if that was because I ordered them pan fried. The next time I find myself here I will order them just steamed and see if that would reduce the wait time. Very happy with this addition within Valley River.

    Ok so it's in the mall food court and let me just say our mall food court is AMAZING. This just adds to the amazingness! I've always wanted to try Bao and could never find a vegetarian one - well they've got it! Wow it was so good I couldn't believe it! It tastes like bread which was surprising but it's so delicious. I did get their noodles which were not impressive at all (only reason I gave a 4 star) but I will be back for the Bao! I can't wait to go again!

We wanted to try this location and was sorely disappointed. First there isn't even a hostess to take our name and inform us of a wait time. ABSOLUTELY NO ONE! Instead they provide a notepad and a handwritten sign to put your name down. In the 15 minutes we stood around waiting for some shred of customer service we witnessed one guy walk in, grab a menu then was followed by his wife. When my wife confronted this guy and his wife she stated "they had reservations". THIS PLACE DOES NOT TAKE RESERVATIONS AND THERE WAS NO ONE TO STEP IN FOR THE 6 OTHER PARTIES BEFORE THIS COUPLE that had "RESERVATIONS". Clearly they don't give a shit about their customers and STRONGLY DO NOT RECOMMEND! I guess they feel they have enough business they don't need future customers but if they're so busy then why be so cheap as to not hire a host/hostess? Just bad business practice.

I always find that Asian food hits the spot when I'm really hungry, so I looked online for a place that "the locals" rated highly and I came across "Jade Dumpling and Noodles" on Willamette. Let me just say that the fine people of Eugene didn't steer me wrong! My oldest son loves dumplings and I love noodles (really any type of Asian food), so this place was a gem! We ordered 3 different kinds of dumplings, shrimp, pork and a spicy pork and they were All Delicious! These "soup dumplings" were small and bite sized but were packed with huge savory flavors! They are made right there and are amazing! I myself had the mixed noodles. House made noodles with beef, chicken, shrimp and vegetables, stir fried in a delicious lite sauce, that enhanced the flavors of the dish, without overpowering it. You could taste all the ingredients and they were fresh and delicious! I cleaned the plate and now I can't wait to return to Jade Dumplings and Noodles again and try their other dishes, that I know will be tasty! The staff is very friendly, helpful and attentive. The restaurant is very clean and comfortable, all in all, a Great dining experience! Try them out and you'll be hooked on them, just like I am now!!!

The staff member on the phone assured us it would be fine. However, when we arrived, we were seated and allowed to place our order. Only after we had already ordered did the same staff member inform us that the restaurant only allows service dogs and that we would need to remove our dog. This was extremely frustrating, as we had called in advance specifically to avoid this situation. If this was truly their policy, it should have been clearly communicated over the phone or at least before seating us--not after we had already committed to ordering food.

I asked if they had Xiao long bao--they didn't. I thought this was a bao place and only reason I'm giving it a 3 stars--really I would give 3.5 stars. The service was good and food came out pretty quick! I really like their chili oil. It's crispy and not spicy- I wish it were spicier. I pretty much add it to every bite with the wontons. I really liked the wonton soup. Veggies were a nice addition and the soup was clean and refreshing. Taiwanese pork was OK. Not sweet or salty, but came in large portions. I thought the rice was a little too soft/mushy. If you are craving some good Taiwanese food, it's worth trying.

I ordered Mapo, and it came with some steamed rice. I ordered it with Medium Heat, since this my first time here, and I have no idea what their spice levels are like. My Mapo had just the tiniest bit of spice... not much at all. I tried the chili oil that was on the table... and found it lacking in heat also, but flavor was ok. Mapo was decent... not very MA LA for those know the term... hardly any numbing Sichuan peppercorn in it that I could taste. So this is more of an Americanized version.... not the Chengdu version. Lots of sauce, and a good portion of tofu... enough that I brought over half home with me for later. Rice was ok... edges were kind of dry, so it was not super fresh. But I would eat here again... there are a lot of traditional Sichuanese dishes on the menu, and they even have meat skewers that I will have to try. Next time I will order HOT (extra Ma La)... and see if that does the job.
