    Combo 3, Hot & Sour Soup, Vegetable Egg Roll (2 pcs)
    Bella T.

    Food was good! Similar to a Panda Express. Inside was very clean and after I ordered there was a huge line. Generous and large portions for the plate. I got the chow mein, orange chicken, kung pao chicken, and spicy garlic chicken. Nothing was spicy besides eating the pepper from the kung Pao chicken. It was a great stop for a quick and yummy bite. The hot and sour soup was my favorite.

    Stopped here after work. I would say they are a good solid place to have a quick take out for dinner. The food is hot and has flavor, they don't skip on the portion size. The service is quick and friendly. Plenty of seating inside and lots of parking.

    Bamboo cafe!

    Great food at a great price. Family business with great customer service! Nice place to eat or to grab and go! Feels homey like an old Asian food restaurant from the 80's great decor for a strip mall food joint.

    From the last time I went here it seem like there more seating. But I can't go wrong with this place for a quick bite to eat when you're not feeling the other fast food spot near you. The staff is very friendly and there always someone in line ordering something to go or to sit down. But this my spot for the butter shrimp it reminds me of that panda palace back in the day down Oak St.

    Combo 1 Orange Chicken

    Tried Bamboo cafe for the first time and got a 1 item combo. Although I liked the flavor of the orange chicken, the texture of the chicken was inconsistent. Some pieces were chewy and some though. I did like their chow mein and rice. The service was fast and friendly and the portion was a decent size.

    When you pull up their windows are covered with their advertising and you can't really see inside. Please don't let that stop you though, the smells that smack you in the face the moment you open the door is insane. They were putting out fresh food as we were walking in and it looked very appetizing. We went for my husband and I had no plans on getting anything, but the smells got me. The service was amazing and the restaurant was immaculate. I got the orange chicken, beef and broccoli and the mushroom chicken. The cuts of meat were huge and just covered in sauce, husband got black pepper beef, BBQ chicken, and the kung Pao chicken. He said it was delicious and enjoyed all of it. Now the chow mein noodles are thicker than I like but the flavor was nice. It was so much food that we will have dinner, lunch and dinner again for the next day. Best fast food Chinese food I've had recently. When we are in the area we will definitely go back. It was so good I forgot to take pictures of the food, next time for sure.

    If you're looking for a spot with the friendliest customer service where you're treated like family, this is the place to go! They offer a huge selection of dishes, and everything is incredibly fresh. Plus, they pack your plate generously! I ordered the BBQ pork, shrimp with vegetables, and beef with green beans--each dish was flavorful and perfectly cooked. My husband got the BBQ pork, black pepper beef, and garlic chicken. We couldn't help but share bites from each other's plates because everything was so good! I'm already eyeing the wings for next time since they looked absolutely scrumptious. They even have soup to complete your meal! With savory, satisfying food, great prices, and large portions, you definitely won't regret stopping by. Best of all, if you can't make it in person, they're available on Uber Eats and DoorDash. Delicious food brought straight to your door--what more could you ask for? Highly recommend!

    Worst Chinese food I've ever had. Old Oil taste, Chow Mein tasted like fish and noodles were doughy! Every single piece of chicken in Kung Pao & Orange Chicken was wobbly, greasy, grissely and tendons! More celery and dried hot peppers in Kung Pao than chicken! Like a whole stalk of celery! Horrible...Horrible...Horrible food! I've never written a review on here before, but this experience warranted for an honest review to warn people!

    Always very fast and super friendly staff. Food is great and made fresh to order like the potstickers or spring rolls. It's always busy, so that's how you know it's really good.

    I ordered the Chili Verde Burrito. Had the toppings I wanted. The Burrito was great…read more The guy who made it was very nice, very talkative, and very happy. No ambiance at all. The place is inside a gas station mini-market. HOWEVER, the Burrito was not worth the $12 price tag that went with it. The Chili Verde had great flavor, but cost $12. The pork in the Chili Verde was very tender, but cost $12. The ingredients added to the Burrito were fresh, but cost $12. The Burrito was half the size of other ones I have paid the same price for and they were worth the $12. This one was not. I have paid $150 for a meal, and not complained, but I want what I pay for. When my mind continues to think of the price I pay for something, it must not be worth it. I do not know whether or not to recommended this place. The food is good. The prices are not.

    I've been coming to this location since it opened. Conveniently just done the street from my house…read moreand always pleasant staff and food. I have had breakfast burritos, Chile Verde burritos, Tortas and TACOS!!!! Some of the best Al Pastor tacos in the city! EVERY SINGLE TIME I've eaten here I've very much enjoyed my food! They always get it exactly right and they are SUPER fast about getting the orders out. Staff are always nice and attentive, even if it's only for 1 taco...Haha, yeah right, I didn't get 1 taco ever! These are SO good!!! Building is always clean, kitchen usually looks spotless, even during food prep hours and food bar ingredients always look fresh! If you haven't been here for the food, YOU ARE MISSION OUT!!! Please give it a try... Pro tip...Remember to ask for avocado on those tacos, it's life changing! Lol, sometimes they have to steal the avocado from the Subway person, that's next store...lol, they always get the stink eye while they're carrying that avocado away!!!
