    This place was great. We were able to grab seats at the bar without having to wait in the long line. They give hefty portions so you can definitely share meals. The price for the dishes are reasonable as well! Awesome waitress at the bar. She was able to keep moving even after witnessing horrible customers being rude to her. Please be nicer to the staff they are trying their best! This lady complained for a round take-out container instead of a square one. Really?!

    We come to eat here whenever we stay. The food is so good. The line can get long at times but it's definitely worth it. Pictures are of some of the duck items. They are super flavorful and very filling. Make sure you are good and hungry before coming here because it's a lot of food! If you want more of a calmer atmosphere to sit and chat, this is not the place for you. Expect to get your food fast and plan to stuff your face fast so you can help others get in to eat this amazing food as it's a small venue with limited seats. We will be back again the next time we visit. :)

    I was delightfully surprised by the fear Great flavors and how delicious the food was there both nights we came. After the first night, we were craving it, so we HAD to go back. The line is always long there but well worth the wait. The appetizers are on point we had fried rice for meals both nights, and the portions are large we could have shared, but I'm glad we didn't so we had left overs to take with us. The servers were very nice and attentive and can make great recommendations for your tastes. I will definitely return when we come back to Tampa. And it is a family-friendly restaurant even though it's on the casino floor. I definitely recommend stopping by. The Thai tea was amazing.

    You ever pass a restaurant that no matter what time of day it is, it always has a line, and you wanted to know what the big deal is? JUBAO Palace Noodle Bar is that restaurant. It is worth the wait. There are so many options, and you will want to try them all. The fried dumplings are a great starter. The Singapore Mei Fun is a delight for the tongue, and the pork belly Pho heals whatever ails you.

    2nd time here food was very good. Started off with spicy cucumber. Just the right amount of spice & still a little bit of crunch left in the cucumber🥒 over all good. Next West Spring rolls. Had nice crunch to them But almost no vegetables inside so that was a little bit of a ⭐️ down for that But overall ok Next was the combination Plate 3 items spare ribs duck and barbecue pork Everything was good. Ribs were tender and soft and juicy barbecue Pork was. Same way very good duck was Good moist only one little thing that I would say was the skin was not crispy which it should be.........................((((( one complaint ))))) 2nd time. I've been here and they have not had chili paste..... get it together. People.

    Fast service. No wait. Crab Rangoon came out in less than 3 minutes; the Rangoon’s were mostly cream cheese not much crab, still tasty. The crispy pork belly was delectably crispy and delicious.

    Walked past this place the first day since it was packed and the line outside was long. So we left and decided to call to make reservations the next day! Unfortunately they don’t accept or make reservations so we had to go stand on line and wait, will say the line moves fairly fast. Didn’t think anything about it. The place was small but it worked and the food portion make up for it. The food was delicious and very tasteful. And coming from NY where we have a lot of good Chinese restaurants this is up there. I will say I will definitely be back when I’m back down there to try out other dishes! I would definitely recommend if your around the area and not in a rush!

    This is a great place to eat noodles and if you are craving a past midnight pork belly or roasted duck! A decent place at a decent price for the food! I love the soup and especially the pork belly! I love the crunchiness of the skin and the tenderness of the meat! Soup is very flavorful!

    Food is excellent. It would be nice to have different flavours for the soup broth and maybe something spicy. Also to make a better soup allow the customers to choose their own ingredients and offer a broader range of meats. Regardless, the soup tasted terrific. Customer service is very friendly and quick service. Very competent staff. It’s just too bad it’s off the casino floor that allows smoking.

    Long wait, but it's worth it. Fast service, good waitress. Pho and other soups were great and tasty. Good portions. Amazing pork belly. Didn't care about ribs appetizer.

    This place deserves 5 stars and then some! I absolutely love stopping by Jubao for lunch or dinner during my casino visits. Be prepared to wait in line, but trust me, the wait is worth it! I typically order the oxtail noodle soup and it never disappoints! The regular portion is large enough and most times I can’t finish the whole bowl. Usually there are 4-5 oxtails and they are cooked to perfection and taste so yummy! I’ve had the shrimp and chicken fried rice before which is also tasty - always a huge portion too! The crab rangoon are a great appetizer as well. Jubao is always crowded and occasionally you may be seated at a long table with other guests or at the bar. It’s a fast paced restaurant and it can get a bit noisy in there. Waitstaff is always prompt and kind. Price range is a bit on the higher end but in my opinion the food is worth it.

    Absolutely amazing food and service!! Everything was fresh and delicious! Pork belly, spicy garlic cucumbers! Only 63 people allowed so get there early!

    Food was amazing. Service was great, and food came out really quick. Vietnamese coffee was delicious, lost some if it since they don't give it to you in a to go cup.

  • 5/5 Danny G. 9 months ago on Google
    Love this place. The only problem you might have is trying to figure out what dish to pick out since they're all good! Been here a dozen times and never left disappointed. Prompt service, clean, and nice people working the booths.

  • 5/5 Brandon R. 2 years ago on Google
    This place is great. I was always fooled by the line that was always out the door but that shouldn’t steer you away. The line goes really fast and it’s totally worth it. The service is really good inside and the food is cooked really fast. The rice platter is so damn good. It’s def worth the price. The fried wontons are great. The soy sauce chicken was super delicious and portions were generous. Give this place a try.

    I was just curious if the food was good because they have a long line. The soup was amazing, tasted like pho

  • 5/5 Sheila R. 1 year ago on Google
    The best place to eat rice noodles!! So freaking delicious I recommend 100 percent!! I had the Singapore rice noodles and my husband had the roasted duck ugh we both loved it! Might be a little pricey but I would go here again a million times and the services was so amazing the waitress who helped us was the kindest ❤️ Thank you

  • 5/5 Jonathan B. 2 years ago on Google
    This place was such a surprise. The portions are huge and they had the best egg rolls I ever had. They also had some great dumplings and possibly tied for the best crab Rangoon as well. The dumplings were really good as I normally don’t like deep fried dumplings. They weren’t overly crispy and they had a unique seasoning sprinkled on top that made it taste great. Everything was so good I went twice. Great Ho Fun noodle soup and also had the soy chicken and bbq pork rice plate. As well as some Chinese beer and viet coffee. Everything was reasonably priced considering the portions can easily feed two people.

    I went for the greens and stayed for the pho! Snow pea leafy greens lightly seasoned and sautéed with oxtail pho accompanied with a veggie plate of sprouts, lime, jalapeños, and basil leaves DELICIOUS! The broth is clean and not oily, the meat is tender and the noodles are perfect!!! The table setting has everything you need Sriracha, hoisin, soy sauce etc.. the only thing missing was a pinch of salt, just to wake up the flavor but it was still very good! 4/5 stars!

    The noodles were especially delicious, a very hearty serving. Small seating room and bar area which explains the line of people at the hostess stand. That is why I gave them a two for the atmosphere. No privacy, I had to sit at a six table top with two sets of strangers. Maybe because they weren't friendly but it felt awkward. Everyone just ate their food and looked at the gambling tables across the room. This dining experience needs more space to truly be enjoyed. I used my Unity rewards points and got a free meal. They charge for bottled water 5 bucks crazy 😧. I had Singapore noddles with four types of meat (chicken, shrimp, bbq pork)

    Located inside Hard Rock Casino in Tampa, FL. Very Long Line but worth the Wait. Service was fast and friendly. Food was Delicious. Enjoyed the Experience. Definitely will be back to try other options.

The burger was cooked perfectly but personally would prefer roman lettuce on a burger instead of shredded lettuce which made it a bit soggy, but the milkshake was...
