Restaurant
Mian & Bao
Mian & Bao is one of the best asian restaurants in Austin for date night, especially if you want a strong option in West Campus.
Mian & Bao sits in the Triangle just north of campus, and it wears its casualness on its sleeve — green tiled tables, wicker chairs that nod to Texas, paper lanterns overhead doing the atmospheric heavy lifting.
