Michael HardingJune 3, 2018Try the Pho, it’s legit. We had dumplings, Rangoon’s, tofu soup and the one of the sizzling plates. All good but a little confused, I think the main influence is Vietnamese.
My go-to (aside from the lunch buffet), is the shaking steak, with Cantonese fried rice, and an order of fried tofu with peanut sauce. The best!
I'm not usually a big fan of buffet's as they just don't have fresh food. This place is the exception. They seem to keep food fresh and replenished.- Go! MagazineOctober 14, 2011Craving quality Chinese food in a hurry? Bamboo Bistro to the rescue. This downtown spot also is open later than most Chinese places — including weekends — and has a buffet.
Rachel LeeDecember 10, 2011The caramel chicken was amazing! I was skeptical but definitely great! Great service too
Micah HerstandApril 9, 2012Always order from the menu, the buffet is oily and flavorless, but the menu has some real gems (like this curry tofu)
Rai PerazaDecember 20, 2011If the price is indicative of the area that is one thing but otherwise the buffet has little in the way of choices for the price paid.
- Henderson Smith IIIJanuary 21, 2012Try the Curry Seafood....but away from the small red pepper......so good!
The only decent entrees are the fried rice dishes. The spring rolls are good. Otherwise, don't bother.

"The best Chinese food I've had in a long time. The General Tso's is exactly the way it sould be, thick, brown sauce, both sweet and spicy. The chicken is freshly breaded and fried so it stays crunchy."
