Like Chairman Bao Truck in SF but with 4x the menu size - even dessert bao and friend bao buns . Very good bottled beer selection . Staff is super helpful and friendly and into the beers .
Got their pork belly bao and the Korean Bulgoggi Bao with fried avocado and onion rings . Pork belly was awesome! Bulgoggi was meh but I am Korean, so it's biased. Decent fusion place in the south.
The super crunchy soft-shell crab bao is nestled into a bed of Asian-inspired slaw and smothered with a kicked-up spicy mayo before being stuffed into the soft, yeasty bun ! Yum. Read more
Thre soft shell crab was really good! I came during lunch so I did the lunch special , two baos , fries , and a drink for under ten dollars.
They only have ramen on Monday and Tuesday nights! But still should go any other time because other options are also delicious. Super large portions of edamame .
First time here! I had the bulgogi bao , crab daddy bao and avocado chips . AHHH so delishhh! I'm excited to come back and try more!
The Crabdaddy is great. The crunchy fried softshell crab is rich and warm on the inside. Paired with the bed of cool crisp slaw .
Great Ramen if you’re here on days they serve it. The New Yorker and Crab Daddy can’t be beat. So good.
Great korean-vietnamese, add if you must american, fusion fast food . Must do it! The best healthy fastfood ever.
Big Byrd and Duck bao are great, especially with the Eastciders Texas Honey hard cider
I've been to Bao Haus in NYC and these prices are high. Soft shell crab was my fav. Pork belly was kinda thin and I wish they julienned the cucumber instead of slices. Texture makes a difference.
Amazing Peking duck baos ! Not too pricey if you're the type who feels like every Houston restaurant serves way too much food. This is just right!
Ramen Monday is legit, grab some avocado chips you won't be disappointed. Also try a bao it's hands done amazing.
Their bulgogi bao is one of my favorites. I usually get 3 to make a meal out of them.
Yummy & not gummy ! The yeasty dough at Fat Bao never gets gummy , but stays fine and fluffy to the last bite. SO good.
Best ramen I've had so far in Houston. Make it your Monday or Tuesday dinner plan.
Crab daddy was the best thing there.... Fat fries with bulgogi was good too. Fair place to eat, over rated if you ask me tho
go there during the week for the lunch special ...2/3 baos , side and a drink! Better value then ordering individually. ????
This was a place I stumbled upon, but boy did it not disappoint. Delicious food! :) Would definitely go back again!
Got the spicy Thai , crab daddy taco and fat fries . Was super good and filling!
Come Monday and Tues nights for pretty good ramen
The Katsu Bao was perfect (breaded pork shoulder with avocados and cabbage slaw ).
I can't stop getting the big bird. Crispy basil bits are delicious.
Kimchi Fries with chicken are delicious! Mango Wit beer is good also!
Pork belly bao and the yummy fries
The homemade habanero sauce is bomb for people who love spicy . Try it with the yummy fries !
Ramen is only served Monday and Tuesday nights after 5.
I've tried pretty much all their baos , fries and ramen . Good food!!!!
Pork Katsu , and of course the Crabby Daddy. Homemade chips instead of fries .
Fat Bao specializes in a food not found elsewhere in Upper Kirby: the Taiwanese pancakes called bao , typically only found in Chinatown. Read more
Get the pork belly bao or the beef bulgogi !
Monday-Friday lunch special from 11am-3pm!
Amazing food, great salad dressing , nice prices!
Really good. Great prices. Fun multi ethnic crowd. GO!!
The ramen is the best in town !,
This is a great place to stuff your face without paying too much.
Soft shell crab bao is fucking insane. And the parm rosemary cheesy fried chicken bao . Peking duck had no skin and was disappointingly bland.
BaoMadness! & French Fries !
Houston Press 2013 Favorite Dishes - Crab Daddy Bao
Bulgogi , pork belly and curry beef baos
The fat fries are a meal on their own.
Not impressed with the food. The only things I recommend are the fat fries , avocado chips and bulgogi bao . They should've just made this place a food truck .
Zagat Houston 8 Best Sandwiches : Crab Daddy Bao
They are good but not that good. Ingredients aren't that sophisticated. Prices are way too high - makes me wonder if they are just there to keep up with the higher rent on Kirby.
Order the bulgogi beef !
Crab daddy bao for the win!
Come Monday for the ramen

Bao and ramen
Try the salt-toasted squid, veggie dumplings, and spare ribs. You can't go wrong with any of the pork dishes. I tried the orange beef peel twice and it's too chewy. - Jenn
This place is amazing, good food, inexpensive and good service - Eloy Juarez
Serving cakes, pies, and tarts, Oui’s real shining star are their macarons. The raspberry, lemon, and coffee macarons are my fav! - Blair Allen
Tres leches and tiramisu are great here. Pair them with a flat white and enjoy the boardgames in the back. - Mazanin F
Very nice movie theater with Valet Parking. The place was extremely clean and all lines moved fast. - Bon Bon
