Bánh Cuốn & Bánh Ướt are amazing…Bánh Mì too. Btw, Banh means dough. My last name has different accent :)

Delicious Mì Vịt Tiềm!! For the best result, we braise duck legs in duck fat similar to French #duckleg #confit.

👨‍🍳🔥 Chef Bành’s been making this steak for years — and the moment that smell fills the kitchen, everyone already knows what kind of night it is. Dry-aged ribeye. Thyme. Garlic. Olive oil. Butter-basted. The fat renders, the crust sets… and somehow, it gets better every time 🥩 #BaBarSeattle #ChefLife #SteakNight #dryagedsteak #seattleeats

Chef Bành’s homemade caramelized leeks — simple, quick, and honestly the side dish that stole the whole dinner. Sweet, buttery, savory. Our friends were impressed.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ #BaBarSeattle #ChefLife #CookingAtHome #SeattleEats #vietnamesefood

Fresh oil. Every single batch. It’s one of those things we just don’t compromise on. Chef Bành has been doing it this way for 15 years — and you can taste the difference. #BaBar #SeattleEats #VietnameseFood #FriedShallots #ChefLife SeattleRestaurants MadeFromScratch

Sweeten your Lunar New Year with a bowl of Double Happiness! 🧧✨ Our Chè Trôi Nước (Double Happiness Dumplings) are officially here for the season.

We top them off with creamy coconut sauce, toasted sesame, and crushed peanuts for the ultimate comfort in a bowl. 🥥🥜 📅 Available until Feb 19 (or until sold out!) Come celebrate Tết with us! Pair your dessert with: • Bánh Tét & Chả Quế: Traditional sticky rice cake & housemade Việt cinnamon pork sausage, pickles. • “Lì xì nhé” cocktail: French Agricole over-charred rum (think “fire” like “year of the fire horse”) with blanc vermouth, fresh blood orange juice, pomegranate, and cava. • Special #LiXi Giveaway: Join us on the first day of Tết (Feb 17) for a traditional lucky red envelope! 🧧The first three tables seated for lunch and dinner at each Ba Bar location will receive a $25 Ba Bar gift card, tucked into a lucky red envelope. #lunarnewyear2026 seattle restaurant that celebrate Lunar New Year #lunarnewyeartreats #giveaway Vietnamese restaurant in seattle offering traditional Tet dishes
