I think I've eaten Gongfu over a dozen times just this last year. Whether you're just passing through on a bike ride or dining in with friends - it's always great and delicious. During the warmer weather I'd recommend eating outdoors - inside can be a bit noisy. Amazing for vegetarians and meat eaters alike. Keep an eye on their Instagram for new temporary menu items to try throughout the year! Vegetarian options: Lots of deliciously marinated tofu!!!
So tender and delicious! I got the brisket and pork Bao and really enjoyed them. Tasted very fresh and high quality. Compared to other Bao I've had, I found the Bao bun itself a little bland and could use some more sugar/salt though. Also for the price for 2 Bao, I'd want it to leave me a bit fuller! Overall recommend and definitely want to try the other flavours!
Definitely doesn’t taste like it does in Taiwan but still very tasty! Pleasantly surprised at how thick the tofu was in the tofu bao. The staff is very friendly and I like how well they communicated with one another. Fast and efficient service! Would recommend and would go back next time I’m in town.
I’ve dined in and ordered online from this place and the food has always been good. Braised tofu bao is highly recommended and the fried chicken rice bowl! Very nice vibe, cute small spot, servers are very kind and welcoming.Recommended dishesFried Chicken Bao 2pc, HK French Toast, Fried Chicken Rice Bowl
Pleasantly surprised! I'm not from Ottawa, and having moved I've often been disappointed with the Asian foods I've tried here, but I was walking passed Gongfu and noticed the bao people were eating...it looked so fluffy and soft! I walked in and was greeted nicely. I took a leap and didn't check google reviews first I usually do and placed an order. I was at first a little surprised how small the box was having paid $17+ but even after a nearly 40 minute drive the bao was still super soft and fluffy and the fried chicken still crispy! I will for sure come back and try a couple other snacks! Will also definitely recommend to others, especially those visiting from out of town. Nice job Gongfu, keep it up!
Have been eagerly waiting to try this place out for a while and so glad that I finally did! We ordered the fried chicken & tofu belly bao each comes with 2 pieces of bao with a side of the toban slaw. The fried chicken bao & the toban slaw were amazing: the ingredients all complement each other so well & it’s an explosion of flavours! Also liked our sodas: honeydew melon & the blueberry lemonades. It’s a small shop but it’s very cosy and gives off the right kind of vibes. The servers were super friendly & it was quite crowded around dinner time. They also serve various sweet treats. Looking forward to trying those the next time!
Funky and relaxing vibe. The service is good and thoughtful. There was only 3 gluten free options on the menu… none were bao. I ended up getting the sweet and sour tofu with rice. My fiancé got the the steak bao. Both we’re good but left us wanting more. Overall we had a good experience but believe it could have been better if there were more gluten free options and if they had bigger portions or some kind of side with their dishes.
Stumbled upon this place while searching for a brunch spot. We had the beef brisket and fried chicken boa as well as the milk tea. The beef brisket was very flavourful and the tea was nice and sweet. Amazing place.
I first discovered Gongfu Bao after seeing their vegan Tofu Bowl appear in the Facebook Group Ottawa Vegans and Vegetarians. At the sight of it, I was mesmerized. I was overjoyed when I discovered that they were located just minutes from my house in Centretown. The first time I went to the check them out, I was devastated as they were closed. Fortunately, I persevered and came back another day. I have now eaten at Gongfu Bao three times, and I can not get away from their tofu Bao. It is divine. On one occasion I ordered the Tofu Bao and they accidentally packed me with a dessert instead. Upon calling them, without hesitation they offered me a free Tofu Bao to make up for the one they missed and an additional Tofu Bao for my troubles. Talk about customer service. I also love how they use sustainable compostable take out packaging. My final shoutout goes to their meal share program. They feed multiple vulnerable people in the community. Everytime I call them on the phone, the person who answers is loving their life. Clearly, Gongfu Bao is a place that cares about their food, cares about their customers, cares about the community, cares about their staff and cares about the planet. Final shoutout to Stephanie, who is lovely every time I interact with them.
Gonfu Bao is a little gem of a place located on Bank Street, Ottawa. Their steamed buns bao are so light and fluffy it’s like biting in a cloud. Pure heaven! The fried chicken bao is definitely our favorite followed by the spiced pork one. But any of them will not disappoint. They are all very tasty and delicious. The Toban slaw is a great side that brings the perfect amount of acidity, freshness and kick to balance the meal. Gonfu Bao pride themselves in selecting local seasonal produce and offering the freshest of ingredients which is greatly appreciated. The only downside is that we usually order too much food… And they do NOT offer delivery on the Quebec side. We will forgive them and continue to pickup and enjoy their delicious food. Well done to the entire Gonfu Bao team!
