Full description

BAO Noodle Shop specialises in Taiwanese bao and noodle dishes, and its packed dining room is treated by regulars as a good sign rather than a downside, with reviewers actively seeking out the buzz of a full house. It's also proven itself flexible for celebrations, with one reviewer hosting a 20-plus-person birthday dinner in a private dining room that came off without a hitch.

At 4.5 stars and mid-range pricing, it suits both a casual dinner for two and a larger group celebration, making it one of the more versatile bookings in this list. Its strong trendy score reflects a restaurant that's stayed genuinely popular rather than fading after its initial buzz.

Reviews

Very delicious food! The interior looks so nice so we gave a try. And it was fantastic. The price was okay, not that way expensive for a place in London. Only the chair and places was very small.
