Another great Osaka option

A really warm greeting from the staff. Seating is outdoors with a weather cover, heaters and blankets. Food was awesome with a large selection of Bao. You could definitely go more than once

Boa with a bite! :D

This place is exceptional. The food is delicious, well priced and so tasty. I would really recommend this place for lunch, the portion sizes are very generous & the quality of the food is exceptionally high.

This cute Cafe is tucked away & should be a must see for vegan foodies.

Pros: Food quality , Affordability , Hospitality of Staff

Really tasty vegan bao’s!

The bao buns were really tasty! The bread was fresh and soft, and the filling was well-seasoned. There were many delicious vegan options to choose from. The staff is also very friendly!
Location; It feels like you’re on a camping site. A unique, but fun setting!

Simply Great Baos!

Beautiful, tasty, baos with excellent variety including tofu, falafal and protein based meat alternatives. Absolutely yummy! 😋 Plus a vegan ice cream vending machine and oat milk lattes, heavenly.

Oh, and donuts too, hot and freshly made when you order.

Vegan icecream vending machine

We got unlucky as it was closed due to personal health reasons, but the place has a vegan icecream vending machine at the front and it is 100% worth it!

Fully vegan, amazing food, great staff!

Had a lovely experience. The staff is super friendly and confirmed that everything is vegan. Even the sauces are homemade by them. Big recommendation!

Great

My hotel was right outside Kuromon Market about 5-8 minutes from here, and also I was hanging around Den Den town a lot. As such, I was incredibly grateful to have Luu's Bao in the area.

I ate here multiple time and came away satisfied each time. The service was fast, the price was fair, and the food was tasty.

Extra notes:

The strawberry donut was too sweet, but the plain was pretty good.

The place plays pop-ish radio.

must stop if you're in the area!

I finally made it out to try Luu's Bao this summer, and it was so worth the trek! So many options, it was hard to choose (but you def can't go wrong no matter what you select). Portions were bigger than I expected, staff was kind, and the lemonade was great. I highly recommend stopping here if you're close by!

Best food we’ve tried so far

Hands down the best vegan food we’ve tried in Japan. The baos were extremely soft, fluffy and perfectly warm. The whole experience was even more enhanced with the charming little patio seating and very charming and polite staff.

We ordered kakiage tempura and maitake fritters baos with a side of fries, and strawberry and chocolate donuts for dessert. Donuts were perfectly crispy and flavorful, but baos were so good we’ve decided to take two more for dinner as a take out (tofu tsukune and plant based meat burger). Even though several hours have passed before we tried the take out ones, they very still perfect and tasty.

Pure 5/5, could not recommed more!

Pros: Incredible food, All vegan, A lot of options, Charming staff, Fast service

A must visit in Osaka!!

This place is so fabulous! I had the freeze-dried beancurd cutlet bao and it was incredible - it was like a chicken kiev! 🤤🤤🤤 They clearly know their way around vegan cuisine and have created a unique and delicious offering. Definitely try!!

Cozy place, bun delicious, but very fast food

The bun is delicious, but the filling is very fast food, the cutlets are fried in oil or deep-fried, this is terribly harmful and should not be eaten at all. I recommend that the cafe staff make healthier products, with more greens, vegetables, cutlets can be steamed, but don’t poison vegans with deep fat and oil, please🙏🏼 The place is very cozy, the service is excellent💕

Pros: Bao, Smoothie

Cons: Cutlet fried in oil and deep fried

Good vibes

The bao was really big and super soft, they serve it in a bamboo tray and the prices are good.
