Coming from a black person who loves spicy food and great flavors...this places lacks both. I honestly would not recommend it to anybody. It is not authentic at all. read more

Food was delicious and VERY WELL SERVED!!!!! Portions were definitely huge in my take out order. I couldn't finish my meal. I got the spicy ramen and the Thai noodle for my boyfriend. The BEST was the jalapeño cream cheese rangoons!!!! read more

First time trying this place. Online ordering was easy and order was ready on time. The cashier was polite. The food was hot and tasty. Will be back. read more

I read some pretty nice reviews so decided to try this place out. There are better places with better food. The one plus bamboo bistro has is that they have a drive thru, but on the three occasions I went through it, the service was EXTREMELY slow. Some places shouldn't have drive thrus simply bc it takes time to cook the food. If you fancy spicy foods, don't bother. Nothing I've ordered was actually spicy. I even ordered the spiciest thing on the menu (it had 4 peppers next to it on the menu), but it didn't even come close. The guy in the drive thru is nice. However he asked me multiple times if I wanted to add a Thai drink. I kept saying no. Kind of awkward. Not sure if he was just trying to make a sale or if he wasn't paying attention to the fact that he had already asked me twice before. read more

I really like Bamboo Bistro! The staff is always friendly and the food is ready fast. We typically order take-out online using Eat24 and it is ready in 10-15 minutes. Tons of vegetarian options, too! Some dishes are better than others, but I really like their pad thai with tofu. I always add either miso soup or spicy thai soup to my meal for an extra $1. With this addition, I have enough food for leftovers. :) read more

Bamboo Bistro - Thai spicy soup. Cheap, simple, spicy, and DELICIOUS! - Asian Fusion Near Me - Austin, Texas

It's been impossible to get decent Asian food takeout/delivery in south Austin so I'm so glad bamboo bistro opened a south location. Try their spicy basil wings.. Super tasty! Service can be pretty slow though so call ahead for pick up. Don't do the drive through unless you're willing to wait 15-20 minutes in your car. read more

Everyone is always so polite here. I've been here several times and never had a bad experience. The wait is a little long but I think that's pretty normal when they as busy as they always are. read more

So, so not good. Just very marginal. We expected typical American-ized "Chinese" food and yet were pretty shocked at the way-too-sweet-and-gluey quality of the dishes we received. Gosh. It was even a big step below Buffet Palace, and that's a pretty low bar. We won't go here again. read more

I have delivery order from this place for thai curry fried rice and crab wonton. The delivery was ordered in time and both dishes were so good. Recommended. read more

very mediocre food. i got the thai basil fried rice and it had no flavor. it was just spicy. the meat was also very dry. i would recommend finding another place if you're craving chinese food. read more

To be honest, I only ever get orange chicken/General Tso's from Panda Express because every other Chinese restaurant I go to, it's super fatty and kind of slimy. Bamboo Bistro actually does General Tso's right. White meat chicken with no fat (or so little that you can't taste it) and fantastic sauce with a bit of spiciness to it. The best I've ever had. A great place to stop by if you're in the South Austin area. read more

So I saw the Bamboo Bistro here and decided it was time for a round of potstickers. So I stopped came in very clean nice place small but lots of tables and I think I may be a little early as the dinner crowd is obviously not hit. The lady was very nice friendly even a bit humorous and I like that. I ordered up some potstickers sat down and promptly was served it was it was a good experience. Not every table had a bottle of rooster sauce on it which to me is Thai ketchup and I like that a lot the pot stickers were thin-skinned with lots of filling and quite flavorful then when I add the chili paste and a little bit of soy Yahoo I like it alot. So I'd say Bamboo Bistro did pretty good and I'd come back and try some full-on dinner another time. Tell me what you think enjoy read more

the tom kha soup had zero flavor. literally tasted like dishwater that was strained through a chicken. no salt no flavor. i asked for no spice but i didn't expect it to have no flavor as well. the chicken in the soup was so dry i don't know how it seriously sucks the moisture out of your mouth. i had to go to walmart to get ingredients to salvage this soup. the crab rangoons were pretty good tho. read more

Fast and friendly drive thru service, the food was amazing and reasonably priced. So grateful I live so close to this location! Will 100% be back. Fried rice was to die for. read more

We ordered food for delivery to hotel, which required a 15% tip but when the food arrived we were shortened food

This is definitely my go-to place in my neighborhood for Chinese food!! The food is great, very consistent and the sauces are great. They do a great job with the Thai food they offer as well. read more

Our go-to delivery place. Always timely, your basic menu with all the favorites and good Thai tea. Had one mishap, internet problem not their's, called and spoke with the manger, full refund and free app. Good customer service. read more

My wife and I get takeout from here fairly regularly. It's inexpensive, fast (they even have a drive thru)and has a large amount of vegetarian options. You can alter your protein and noodles on just about any dish. Most recently I had the Mongolian tofu with ramen noodles. It was full of flavor, the tofu was perfectly fried, the vegetables were bright and crisp, and it was sauced but not drowning in soy as you will often see. A great alternative for a quick dinner. One of our favorite quick and casual places in the slaughter lane area. read more

Love Bamboo Bistro! Always good food and great friendly staff. It doesn't get better than a drive thru Asian food restaurant!

So this place is actually surprisingly really good. They could do better with service though. We often ask for an extra side of meat with our meal bc my husband and I share and they have forgotten it multiple times. When we asked for it on the side so we could actually see what we are paying for they say they can't do that which doesn't make sense. It's cheap good Asian food though so we will be coming back... just don't expect good service. read more

This is a pretty solid option for satisfying your Chinese or Thai takeout needs. The orange chicken is an interesting option if you want something different from general tso or sesame chicken. The orange sauce has a tang to it that I'm not sure how I feel about, but also has some real orange zest in it that gives it great citrus which. Make sure to add an extra order of rice for this if you're doing take out Bc both times I've had the orange chicken I've eaten all of the rice with only half the chicken. Final note: it's really not hot. If you want heat, go for the Bangkok noodles. It's like pad Thai without the peanut flavor. read more

This is close to my house and with the drive-through it's convenient and safe. However, I got the spicy crispy shrimp to eat on the go, and they did not include utensils or napkins. So, I was unable to eat it without having to stop and go into a store to buy utensils and napkins anyway. The spicy crispy shrimp would have been better without the cream sauce. When I go for Chinese food, I just don't expect a cream sauce. The fried rice isn't what you would expect. It's just plain rice with soy sauce in it. There are no vegetables, no eggs, no seasoning except the soy sauce. So, the food is mediocre-good enough if you just want to drive through. However, I think it's worth driving to North Austin to get the more authentic Chinese food which is amazing, and no cream sauce! read more

The 1st choice for my South Austin family of four! Great tasting food and local attitude.

I do not eat Chinese food often but occasionally I have a craving. This place was great!! I stick to what I know I like - I had shrimp fried rice and crab rangoons. It was cooked fresh and delicious!! read more

I ordered from out of town for a relative in Austin. The owner could not have been nicer and more accommodating. Plus, I heard from my family that the food was delicious! read more

This place is terrible, the first time I ordered I thought it might be just a bad batch. Ordered again right off the bat the driver callers me and says "HEY MAN YOU HAVE MY FREAKING MONEY?" And I'm like..... I guess. Then proceeded to knock at my door so aggressively I almost told him there he could shove that food. But I was so hungry (the order took 30 mins longer than they said) I took it. They gave me the wrong food, and what ever I was holding tasted awful. I don't even want my money back. I just want to raise awareness read more

Had bamboo bistro for dinner tonight. It was about my 5th time eating here, as I usually like to eat somewhere a couple times before reviewing. I had the spicy ramen stir fry with crab wontons. I have to say bamboo never disappoints the spicy ramen had just the right amount of spice and a good ratio of veggies to chicken, I think it is my new favorite entree. (Although the general tso's chicken is also delicious!) The wontons were crispy and super tasty, I also really love their steamed pork pot stickers. Overall the speediness of the drive through and the reliably tasty food earns bamboo 5 stars in my book! read more

Bamboo Bistro - Spicy ramen stir fry with chicken, crab wontons, and sweet tea. Soooo tasty! - Asian Fusion Near Me - Austin, Texas

Love this place! Food is great and costumer service is fantastic. Tea selection is great!

Ordered from Grub Hub. Food was on time. Early actually. But it was cafeteria aweful. I feel sorry for you people that think the food is good from this place. read more

I just moved close to Bamboo Bistro so I decided to try it out since it had good reviews on here. General Tso Chicken is what I always order at all Chinese restaurants and at Bamboo Bistro it looked the right color and texture, but it tasted like burnt soy sauce and was also not spicy whatsoever. The fried rice was dry, the steamed potstickers were just ok, the egg roll was good, and the cream cheese wontons had a little too much green onion. I feel like it was a waste of my money and will definitely just keep ordering from Hunan Lion and China Dynasty. read more

It's pretty good!! I am giving a 5 star review because they are open later than anyone around on a Monday. I ordered the Orange chicken and it did not disappoint. It's a 25.00 min for delivery, for 2 people that's not bad at all. Plus I'll have some for leftovers tomorrow. Pretty happy right now read more

Hands down the most delicious Asian-style food I have ever had. The best egg drop, general tso's, everything is fantastic. You can't go wrong when ordering. Speedy service with wonderful workers. I will be a life long customer. read more

Decided to try some Thai takeout from this restaurant for the first time and it did not disappoint!! I ordered chicken pad Thai with a special note of Medium spice and some chicken eggrolls and it was so good!! Food was kinda spicy but I still added some Cayenne pepper to give it a kick. I actually appreciate them going slightly under then over on the spice and making it hard to eat. I would definitely recommend! read more

This place is great first, the are fast, they deliver at a reasonable price and my favorite dish is the jalapeño fried rice with added pineapple. The veggie egg rolls are delish too! You must try it! read more

Yum, yum! I do wish the serving sizes were a tad bigger for the price; but my husband and I have ordered from here multiple times and it never disappoints! read more

I would rather starve than eat their General Tso chicken and "fried rice" ever again. It was basically breading covered in old tasting soy sauce and the rice doesn't have any veg or egg (huh?). By far the worst Chinese food I've ever eaten. Took two bites and threw it in the trash where it belongs. read more

Anyone who actually likes this place obviously has never had good Chinese before. I am highly pissed off and will never ever order from this place again. Originally from CA and have lived in numerous other states, and by far TX has the worst Chinese food I have ever tasted. Giving each place I try the benefit of the doubt, I try this place and low and behold ...awful! The only good thing was the prompt delivery service. Mind you Chinese food is one of the cheapest food to make and usually you get your money's worth. But this place straight jips you! My go to is Kung Pao which should be pretty straightforward no matter where you get it from and should always be the same. I took one bite and was pissed off. Disgusting and no where near what Kung Pao should taste like! Just even looking at the portion size made me mad. They charged 8.95 for a half portion of Kung Pao in the same container with the rice!!! WTF!!! What did I pay for? 6 pieces of shrimp and some rice. I am so tired of restaurants cutting corners to make a buck! If you made legit fresh, delicious tasting food then maybe you would have more return customers and wouldn't have to be so chintzy! I say this to all of the crappy restaurants. This place just happens to be the straw that broke the camel's back. And I'm only referring to my meal although my BF's was no better. Do yourself a favor and go elsewhere! read more

I want this to be more than drive through food, but it's just not. I wish my fried rice had some veggies or egg in it. Convenient though

I've eaten here twice, it's right down the street from my house. I love that I can order on Eat24 and pick up by drive thru. The first time I ordered the Pad Thai; it was good, nothing special. The second time I ordered the chicken lettuce wrap. I thought it was going to be something small so I almost ordered 2 but am I glad I didn't. It was absolutely delicious and a big portion for lettuce wraps. I was very impressed. I am also obsessed with their Thai tea. It is a generous cup size for the price and very nice flavor. It is a regular stop for me when I'm thirsty. read more
