    Came her for lunch and was not disappointed! We ordered the lunch specials for general chicken and mapo tofu. Delicious!!! The hot and sour soup was also perfect! Portions were great because we got so full we had to take the rest home. Service was fast and friendly. There are plenty of tables inside and ample parking outside. I would definitely come again!

    Egg drop soup , yummy

    Decor is very simple and we were waited on right away, restaurant was half full possibly during lunch hour. Only problem I had was all our dishes came out one at a time and took a while to get all four of us our meals. My co-worker was almost done, the time I got my food, maybe it's made nice , hot and fresh? I ordered honey walnut prawns, they were big and tasty, but I have had really delicious ones elsewhere, portions are on smaller side too, usually I can bring half of my food home, but at here, it was just enough to finish in one setting.

    A solid 4. This is my son's favorite Chinese to get take out. They make gluten free ordering easy for his wife. Mom and I dined in for lunch yesterday. It is big and quiet in there, so conversations are far from private. Service was friendly and prompt. Food was good. Not outstanding. A good experience.

    Mongolian Beef Yum!

    Small restaurant in a busy shopping center. We were a group of 13 and were the only people eating in. There was a lot of people coming in for their take away orders. We ordered a lot of different dishes! 2 types of pot stickers, 3 prawn dishes, chow mein, fried rice, hot & sour soup, 2 different beef dishes, chicken and fish! Everything I tried was good! You have to a have decent hot & sour soup if you serve chinese food! It wasn't the best I've had, but it was good! The dumplings with Szechuan sauce were tasty and not over the top spicy. Very Good! The Mongolian beef and Hot & Spicy Beef with garlic were very good. I'll order these everytime! The beef was tender and good quality. We ordered the Orange chicken without spicy. The orange flavor was there! This is another dish I'd order every time. The Salt & Pepper Prawns & fish were awesome! Fresh, fried prawns and fish well-seasoned! The service was excellent! The food was out quickly! I'll be back! Cheers - Eric

    Always a great experience. Good reusable takeout containers. My favorite was Mongolian 3 combo. Nice spice level without being overpowering.

    One of the better Chinese restaurants that I've been to in a while. All the dishes we ordered were very good. BBQ Fried Rice, HK style Chow Mein and Kung Pao Chicken were excellent. Maybe I was expecting more from the Kung Fu Fish but that was just ok. Portions here huge for the price. Servers were friendly. Will definitely be back to try some other dishes.

    Chow Mein & Chicken w.Mixed Vegetables

    The best chinese in town! My husband and I eat here once a week, mainly because the food is delicious, but also to see Albert!!! He's the best. So friendly, attentive, and always has us laughing. We only go on the days that he works which I believe is weekdays only! OUR FAVORITES: Appetizers: - Crab rangoons!!!!! - Szechwan dumplings Mains: - Chow mein - Chicken with Mixed Vegetables - Honey Walnut Shrimp - Tomato Beef Chow Mein (this is different but good! give it a try! it's sweet) - Hot and sour soup

    Mongolian beef but where's the beef?????  It's mostly all onions and sauce.  Never will I order this!!  Please the cheap us.
    Vina A.

    Wow! Where's the beef for my Mongolian Beef dish! It's all onions and green onions over sauce! Never will I order this dish again! I'm disappointed I got robbed of my beef!!!

    Scrambled Egg with Prawns

    I love Bamboo Garden! I used to go here for lunch when I worked nearby. The restaurant is located in Martinez in a shopping center filled with other small restaurants. But this one is definitely my go-to when I want good Chinese food for an affordable price. Parking is never an issue and the restaurant fits about 50 customers. The employees at this establishment are really friendly. They even get to know you to the point where they know what dishes you like if you come there a lot...like me. Sometimes it gets busy during lunch and sometimes you see one waiter on the floor. Despite their busy hours, they do find the time to make sure they get your order in and out as soon as possible. My favorite lunch dish is the scrambled eggs with prawns with brown rice. My secondary favorite dish is the Mongolian beef and fried rice. The hot and sour soup and egg flower soup taste amazing in my opinion. Unfortunately, I got promoted at a different department and I no longer work nearby. Luckily, they do DoorDash so now I'm able to order from Bamboo Garden through DoorDash. I still order the scrambled eggs with prawns lol. Even when I do order and if they run out of something, for example, brown rice, they take the time to call to let you know and offer other options. 5 stars for me. I might even go there for lunch today. Price range for lunch specials: $10-13 (DoorDash) It's probably cheaper when you dine in.

    This is my favorite Chinese spot to go to , when I go get Chinese this is my go to place, affordable prices, and hot , good, comfort food

    I tried the Numbing Spicy Minced Pork Noodles yesterday, and they were delicious. I went with…read moretheir widest noodle option, and the noodles were thick, chewy, and bouncy. The minced pork sauce clung onto them really really well. The minced pork had a nice balance of sweet and savory, although it leaned towards a little sweeter than I personally prefer. But it wasn't a problem at all, since I was able to adjust the flavor to make it more savory by using the Chicken Granules, Cumin, Chili Oil, and White Pepper condiments. Overall, it was a very satisfying dish! We also tried their new shaved ice dessert. It wasn't like the Hawaiian style shaved ice which is based on frozen water, but more like Korean style Bingsoo with a milky shaved ice base. The flavor and texture were both good, but I thought it was missing the toppings. It relied solely on syrup, and I think it would've been much better with fresh fruit or other toppings to add more flavor. It was $5.99 per order as of July 2026.

    My 2nd or 3rd time here. I found this last time via Yelp!…read more Same consistency this time: like how fresh the noodles tasted and felt. The dumplings and beef baos were good. What I liked about this place was the both was not too heavy or salty: just about right plain and simple. The ribs noodle was good. Amazingly the chicken wings were very good. Got Pig Ears and Cold noodles take out at the end: very good. Not too salty. Service was quick, accurate and finely. Very clean, simple store. Not overly decorated. Parking was easy. Will come again.
