Absolutely raucous family dinner of about 25 people after I had told them that 20 would show up. Luckily we were the only party in there for a lot of the night. The space was already tight for 20 and our two tables were bursting at the seams with the extra people. We ordered what felt like one of everything on the menu, including the dinner menu and dim sum menu. The kung pao tofu was a surprise hit, and we got two extra orders of shrimp har gao after the first. Pepper beef, beef chow fun, szechuan chicken, sesame chicken, all hits. Nothing knocked our socks off, everything was pretty greasy/heavy, and there was some weird friction between some of our party and some of the staff, but I do have to give them an extra star for staying cool while we went bananas. read more

Got take out from here a few nights ago and can't wait to get back the dine in next time. We were really impressed with our items, and again this was takeout. We got the Hong Kong chow mein, combo fried rice, and orange chicken. The chow mein was unique and yummy and the rice was nice a flavorful. What was the most impressive was the orange chicken. It was fried to a crisp, and remained that way through the ride home. It was unbelieveably scrumptions, well balanced, and a joy to eat. They have an extensive menu that also includes dim sum as well! The restaurant reminds me the old school Chinese restaurants that I used to eat at as a child in CA. There are tables and booths and they all have the small tea cups on top of them. It is also clean and spacious inside. The service was quick, but the lady who helped me was really nice, cheerful, and I could tell appreciative of the business. Next time I will be dining in for some dim sum. Can't wait to get back! read more

Bamboo Village Restaurant - Dim Sum Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Server was great / very prompt. I ordered dim sum and a lunch special and it was delicious. The shui mai and har gow was very generous in size, and pricing seemed fair, since it hard to find good dim sum in Seattle. Congee was good, needed more duck eggs. read more

Went here with a few coworkers after a morning playing tennis as it was walking distance from the upper woodland courts. We came in on a saturday at 1130 am and seated ourselves and it was not super busy. There was booths along the side and circle tables in the middle of the restaurant. We decided to go dimsum style with around 6 dimsum platters and salt and pepper wings. The highlights were the siu mai and the har gow where the portions were really big and were flavorful. The less known dishes, vegetable spring rolls (super oily) and the lava buns (lukewarm) were not as great, but the classic dim sum dishes are super good. read more

Met a former co-worker here for dim sum. We got the usual items including siu mai, har gow, sticky rice and pork spring rolls. Pan fried chive dumplings and pork egg rolls were standouts for me. Not pictured are the soy sauce noodles, which came out a little oily for my taste. The curry chicken and BBQ pork pastries are reserved for weekend only. This is the type of place you order with the server and there are pictured menus. They do not have push carts. They also have a dedicated parking lot. Overall, good dim sum experience in the north end. read more

New to Seattle and asked a local (who's an east coast transplant) where in the area they go for good chinese and this is the place!! Great service and a nice dining space. I did a take out order and took notice to all of the people leaving who dined in and were praising the service staff on their way out. Pork fried rice was really good as well as the chicken & shrimp entrees. So looking forward to coming back! read more

New ownership. The food has gone downhill. Occasionally we get decent stuff. But sometimes it's awful. And tonight, it was borderline inedible. They are nice. And I want to support them. But the terrible experience tonight makes me speculate they are cutting corners. Maybe to cut costs. I don't know.. I got a tough chewy object in my beef tonight - had no idea what it was. read more

New owner, way way down hill. Inedible, told a friend and they said yeah, we have them three chances like idiots, it's awful now. Sadly won't be going back. read more

Every once in a while, you find one of these hidden gems. I just happened to be working across the street and I had to take a break and just so happen to try this place and what a wonderful find!! The restaurant was super clean! It's spacious and the service was great! and the food was just as I had hoped it would be by that I mean delicious and vegetables were very fresh! The price was reasonable, so I took some takeout with me home after sitting down and enjoying my lunch! read more

Bamboo Village Restaurant - Lunch special, Prawns and vegetables, egg roll and soup! - Dim Sum Near Me - Seattle, Washington

A bit bummed after my last 3 visits. I noticed that their portions aren't worth the prices anymore. You get too little protein in the dishes (like their szechuan pepper beef) and way too much vegetables. The protein to vegetables ration is significant and I feel like it's not a great value coming here for dinner anymore. I would stick with coming here for dim sum for the best bang for your buck. read more

It's perfect for locals and families who enjoy Cantonese style food. My kids love Bamboo Village's porridge and all-the-time dim sum. It's one of the few places I can get them to eat their vegetables. It's not like places that specialized in spicy Szechuan food but for Chinese American style food, this place is good, fast and lots of seating for families and groups. read more

Stopped in late afternoon Sunday because it was chilly and soup and dim sum sounded like a good idea. It turned into an eat-in and take-out after the family called and asked us to bring dinner. We started with sizzling rice soup, which was hearty and delicious. Huge variety of proteins, soft mushrooms, crispy fresh vegetables. Then, the steaming hot chow mein and baby bok choi hit the table and were perfectly cooked and so good! Then, they brought us the parsley shrimp dumplings, steamed to perfection and bursting with fillings. The chive dumplings were fried and the tofu wrap with the subtle taste of mushrooms were superb. Take home was crispy salt and pepper wings, fried rice with fresh vegetables and plenty of leftovers from the table. Can't wait to try the other dishes on the menu, which is huge, by the way. AND there's weekday lunch specials for just $ 10. I feel like I stepped back in time to pre-tech-Seattle. If you want hearty, authentic Chinese, I definitely recommend Bamboo Village. read more

You can tell this restaurant is family owned and run. The dim sum is pretty good for the neighborhood. The service was a little slow, but we got everything we needed. There were some hits and misses for the dim sum, and they didn't have everything you'll traditionally see on dim sum menus. I would come to this place if you're not looking to drive into CID. read more

This is one of my go-to spots for Dim Sum. Their menu is small but does not lack in flavor. I can find all my favorite things here: chicken feet, ha gao, pork buns, spare ribs, porridge, and others to boot. I love coming here with a large group and getting just about everything on the menu. Pricing is good - usually comes out to be about $30/person and we are very satisfied and full at the end. Service is good and everyone is really friendly and accommodating. I have also come here for dinner and I've enjoyed their dinner combos too and their American Chinese food is quite tasty. read more

Quick, clean, friendly. Tuesday, Self choice in seating. Friendly server, asked if I had been before, I had not. Gave me a quick run down of the menu and brought out food in under 10 min from arrival. Rare to have personal conversation with people these days, and the server was able to work the tables and communicate at checkout. Thank you friend! read more

Dropped by since my husband loves Singapore noodles and they had it on their menu. Restaurant was fairly empty when we went at 6:30pm on a summer Sunday. Seemed clean Servers reminded me of my Chinese aunt and grandma; you can tell this is a family joint. They commented on what was good and knew the regular who came to pick up her take out by name. Joked when packing up our leftovers that of course no food could be wasted :) Service and food delivery was fast and portions were pretty large for the price; we could have fed 4 people for $60. Wonton soup -- enough for a family of four to each have a small bowl and then some, tasty broth with plenty of wontons and a decent selection of veg (snow peas, water chestnut, carrot, and bok choy). Singapore noodles -- husband asked for extra spicy which they delivered on (and he does not recommend haha). He said it was delicious. Included a decent amount of shrimp, pork, chicken, bean sprouts, etc. General Tso's chicken: chunks of white chicken in a tasty sweet sauce that wasn't very spicy, and quite a thick and crispy coating which amazingly stayed crispy for absolutely forever. Even my last bite 20 minutes after it was delivered was still nice and crunchy! Also came with broccoli that was a nice counterpoint and stayed crunchy and green. Will have to come back to try their dim sum! read more

Got dim sum there recently. Here is what I got. Turnip Cake 3/5. Texture was good. Crispy on the outside. Soft on the inside. Could have used more flavor. Pork and thousand year egg congee 1/5. Way too watery, no flavor, no ginger, no geeen onions. Barely any pork or egg. Probably the worst item on the menu. Very disappointing. Siu Mai 5/5. Very good and flavorful! Chicken Feet 5/5. Very good and flavorful! Beef Chow Fun 3/5. Beef was very flavorful but the noodles itself lacked any flavor. Overall so so place for dim sum. As a Hong Kong native, very disappointed about the porridge. One of the easiest dish to make right. read more

I called to make reservations for tonight and the kid tells me I dont need them. I say really, on Christmas Eve, then he asks how many people. I answer, 3. Then I tell him I have a service dog with all the papers and a card (I flew up from San Diego with her in cabin. I have the paperwork. ) He said Nope ,no dogs even service dogs. I told him ,Well thats illegal but I don't want to deal with it so Iwill call and order take out. He's all okay after 7:00 it will be totally open. Well I called and the guy who answered was rude and said I don't know what to tell you it's going to be after 9:00. They shouldn't have people who are ill informed about ADA laws and unaware of the timing of the restaurant answering the phone. read more

I had lunch with my partner today after passing by and seeing the sign 'Free Wi-Fi' and made fun that the food/ service must be bad enough that this complementary offer restores it to acceptability. The first two times gave us hope we found a place to eat with good taste. IT was hardly busy at all then. But this time, it went so south that this review will almost make me seem like a liar. Summary: If you want to be treated rudely, be told that by pointing out you're not getting service is not their fault, be told that by intervening from approaching them at the cashier for restoring service violates their boundaries, and then get into a clash with the problematic server which I later found out the owner said 'Good for you' to support him, this is the perfect place for you. This place will make you feel you are bothering them, with any sane remedies you attempt to make as insults that fuels their dressing down you, with greasy, oily food to boot. Let's start with the straightforward part. The food was quite tasty as we had the Egg Plant and Mix Vegetable tofu lunch special. However, the egg rolls were burnt and greasy. The Egg plant was swimming in oil, though tasty. Now for the more troublesome issue. The restaurant was more busy than it normally has been. I asked what was the cause, and the only server there (white guy) said it was the weekend. I thought that was odd, but accepted that answer and off he went with our order. The restaurant was half full, but the server was more interested in busing dirty tables than checking in with us (and others). After sometime seeing he would not look towards our table, I approached him and asked him if we can start with our soups first. No response. Later, I saw him talk to the owner (Crystal, I was told later by him), and she brought it out. I asked if there were any fried wonton strips or noodle bits, which she said 'No' brusquely and hurried away. We got our dishes apart, far apart that we almost finished the first dish by the time the second one came around. After that dish, I went up and asked if we can get their steamed custard buns to go. Server took off without a word. I then remembered our table had long been neglected, that our teapot had gotten cold. So, thinking I was going to help the server, I brought the teapot back to the cash register for a fresh brew. Instead, I got a dress down from the server saying that I should have flagged him down at my table, which I responded we tried but he never looked our way, which then pushed to him to start jumping up and down waving hands like we are stopping a bus that would need desperate body language as a demonstration it was our fault for not being pedantic enough as demonstrated. And that we were working against ourselves by such action (huh, it can't get worse than no service, thus our vain attempts for a minimum of service here) It gets better. We both went to the cash register and paid. This is when I said my bringing up the teapot was not meant to make him look bad if this was his interpretation, but a sign we are not getting any return service beyond taking order, bringing dishes, and then the check. The server went on to lecture us for violating his boundaries, and he refused to acknowledge the lack of service even when I pointed out the service was negligent. I also asked him what about the boundaries of the paying customer, which then he said he doesn't know why he has to argue with me. I was running errands later and stopped by to see if I can talk to Crystal. The same server greet me and I asked if I could speak to his boss. He tried to deflect by saying he was his own boss. I then asked to talk to the owner, which he said she was not there. He became vague after I asked what time she will be back, eventually telling me at 6pm. I told him I will be back. He asked me what was I planning to accomplish by talking to her. I said I want to speak to her in the hope she can be open to hear what went down than with him. Just as I was stepping out, he said 'You know what my boss said after our argument? She said "Good for you" (as a praise to him). I said that is sad to see an establishment work against their own livelihood with such an attitude. I told him I will confirm this independently at 6pm. This is when he shooed me out of the restaurant with 'please leave' and his hands flapping in a dismissive way. I saw this rudeness, blindness, and pride was not just with me after going online just before making this review. I made the decision not to go back and talk to Crystal seeing that she is part of the problem from the other reviews. I saw a quote that said that our hurt is less from what others do to us than from our failure to accept their disability early enough to walk away from them. My walking away from the 6pm chance to talk with Crystal is that acceptance of their disability. read more

Tried bamboo village for the first time and was not disappointed. Best Chinese I've had in seattle. Everything we ordered was very fresh. The host was very nice and made sure we were well taken care of and enjoying our meal. Food highlights: - orange chicken. Typically when I order this dish I feel that the chicken is dry, but the meat was delicious and the coating was nice and crispy - green onion pancake. The BEST I've ever had. So fluffy and flavorful. - vegetable dishes (string beans and eggplant) were both very fresh and enjoyable! Overall, I recommend! read more

I decided to give this place a 2nd shot. We order from grub hub and it was actually really good. Glad we gave it another try. Wish they did their own delivery and then I would order more often. -The almond chicken is yummy had an interesting sauce which we loved. -BBQ pork was amazing. -Veggie eggrolls were odd, I couldn't figure out what was in them and we threw them out, not good at all. Prob the worst I have ever had honestly. -Sweet and Sour chicken was good. -Chow mein was good but nothing special. read more

Bamboo Village Restaurant - Orange chicken - Dim Sum Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Back again to our favorite dim sum in Seattle. Sorry Harbor City - the food is better here!! The chicken feet are amazing - cooked long enough to be tender, sauce is amazing with enough spice contrasted with sweet. Two orders... Xiao long bao we're perfect - like Shanghai. Braised pork ribs perfect mix of pork, black beans, and jalapeño. White tripe also perfectly cooked and tender. Congee with Yu tiao (Chinese doughnuts - much like a long popover) finished the meal with some sesame balls. Full and happy! Weekday dim sum doesn't have baked goods due to lower turnout of customers, which I understand completely. I hope some folks will read this and start coming here as well, I've enjoyed this restaurant for many years now. Crystal always provides excellent service, hope you come visit here soon. read more

DIM SUM. DIM SUM. DIM SUM. I cannot give enough love to this place. The service, food, and convenience are truly spectacular. As a Chinese person living in Wallingford, this is the spot to go. I LOVE THIS PLACE. Do not judge the building. Service- the woman who runs the to go over the phone is through. She always repeats the order and checks your order with you there to make sure it is correct. I have NEVER had my order incorrect. Food- I love the dim sum. So good and sometimes you do not want to go to the ID. This place is a strong substitute. I think that the food is quality and fresh. GET THE DIMSUM!!!!! read more

What a freaking gem! I had no idea they had such an extensive dim sum menu, and it bums me out to think I've been driving past it for years. BF and I ordered the following for takeout on the 4th of July--ha gow, siu mai, shrimp & chive dumplings, sticky rice, and eggplant stuffed w/ shrimp. They were out of the eggplant stuffed w/ shrimp, but offered a substitute called garlic eggplant. This dish was SUCH a pleasant surprise! The sauce was perfection and super unique--I had never tasted anything like it. The dim sum dishes were fantastic as well, and are definitely on par with those from the ID. BF & I were both extremely happy with our meal, and are super happy to have a great dim sum option nearby. We're also planning on a return visit to try their regular menu--their menu is enormous! read more

i've tried a lot of chinese restaurants in the seattle, south and east side area and this is my FAV spot to get dim sum. i've been coming here for years, and let me tell ya... the food and service never disappoints. unlike other dim sum restaurants in seattle, parking is easy and the wait time is short to none to getting seated. some of my favorite dishes here include the bamboo village dumplings, crispy shrimp balls, chicken feet, sui mai, calamari, tripe, but the MUST TRY's are: ha gow - the best shrimp dumplings i've ever had. they're steamed to perfection and has delicious ginger bits massaged in the shrimp fillings shrimp & chive dumplings - so crispy on the outside and so juicy on the inside with immaculate flavor all around read more
