    Some of their menu pricing. 4/11/26.

    3.5 stars. We have always liked Bambu. We used to frequent the Pleasanton location a lot; but, their hours were extremely minimal and it was obvious they would not survive being open ~4 hours a day. Unfortunately they closed a few years ago so the closest Bambu to the tri valley is probably this location, believe it or not. The drinks are done very well. However, the interaction I had between the employees on two different occasions were very "robotic". I cannot think of a better term at the moment; but, it's very minimal and not friendly at all. I can understand being an introvert; but, I watch the exchange among other customers as I'm waiting for my drinks and yes; very dry and not friendly. My girls like the ambiance in the back of the restaurant where they remove their shoes or sandals and sit on the floor as they sip on their drinks. There is no tatami mat; but, it definitely reminds them of Japan. Since we like the drinks at Bambu; I know my girls will continue to ask to come here so I'll occasionally make the drive out here.

    It has been a while since I came to this branch. I got the fruit addict. It was okay. My complaint is that my coconut milk was kinda clumpy? Not sure how to describe it. I have gotten bambu at plenty of other locations and have not experienced that. However, I needed a sweet treat and it fulfilled that.

    My coworkers and I decided to have a Friday order to sweeten the last couple of hours. Bambu has so many choices. I decided to try the Hazelnut milk tea with boba. It was pretty good. We had fun doing a photo shoot with our drinks. lol Hazelnut milk tea Mangonada Thai milk tea Strawberry yogurt Coconut combo

    Was craving Bambu so we decided to swing by here for the second time. I remember the first time we came we were disappointed with the quality and flavor of our che. But we decided to give this location another chance. I love the new interior they have going on, it's super cute! However the drinks definitely got worse- not only is the flavor lacking but the coconut milk curdled upon mixing my dessert?? This has never happened to us before and when eating this dessert there's like grainy fibrous coconut curdles in our drink which was not pleasant. Look at the photo of my drink after mixing, the consistency is so weird, even before mixing the coconut milk looked curdled already. The fillings of our Che was also over cooked and bland :( we were so disappointed.

    Came here off the whim to try a new dessert spot and my friend recommended it to me! There are so many dessert options but I wasn't really sure what to order and what was good. I shortly realized that #2 was one of the more popular ones and all my friends got this and enjoyed it. It came with red beans, mung beans, taro, boba, pandan jelly, rainbow jellies and coconut milk. Had so much texture and was pretty good. What I personally got was their Bambu Special #1, I thought this was their signature drink but it was very unflavorful and not the best. I personally couldn't finish the drink. Side note that doesn't affect the review was that there decor was so random, it was a little bit of decor from all cultures in there lol.

    I came here at night, and here's my experience: I ordered the Bambu Special, which came with coconut water, basil seeds, longan, pandan jelly, and coconut meat. It was a refreshing drink, not too sweet and very fresh. One downside is that the longan was super sweet, which didn't quite match the light taste of the coconut water. When I arrived, the shop wasn't too crowded. It was clean and cozy, though the decoration looked a bit messy. Shout-out to the cashier who kindly helped me split my cup into two. I'll definitely come back to try other desserts and leave another review!

    I've been to a number of these bamboo restaurants, but never one down here in Sunnyvale. I always get their Pandan Waffle and usually #4 or #7, up in The City- but apparently here the number system is slightly different. Lol we got our Boba drinks rather quickly, which was great since we were thirsty, but the Pandan waffles took some time to make. The Pandan waffles were made fresh and literally so hot. They were burning my fingertips!! My friend got the strawberry bubble waffle and to her surprise her strawberries were frozen solid! Lol we joked how mine was so hot it literally burnt my fingertips and then hers was so frozen. It nearly cracked her tooth! As we enjoyed the warm climate on this Saturday evening, it was rather warm inside, but outside it was windy and cold. Sadly, my friend spilled her Taro Lover drink, and as we were finishing up, and both the employees that worked there couldn't figure out what to do to help us clean up. The majority of the drink spilled on my friend's shirt and dripped down to the ground. The employees didn't have any cleaning towels for us to use and clean up the mess or my friend's clothes and her sticky arm. The whole clean up situation was just awkward...... we ended up using a BUNCH of napkins and got napkins wet from the bathroom to clean up. Overall, I don't think I will get another Pandan waffle here again, but I'll probably get a drink as take out.

    Signature drink is sooo amazing!! I love the environment too. We came on a quiet Saturday afternoon and spent some zen time here.

    Avocado Smoothie and Thai Tea
    Kim T.

    Randomly stopped by this place while we were in the area. It looked like there was some street parking outside. Plenty of seats and tables inside as well. They made the drinks pretty fast even when mine was a smoothie. -avocado smoothie: 3/5, I wish they used more avocados or ones that were more ripe. It was good but the avocado flavor wasn't super strong. It tasted like they might've used a lot of sugar to help the sweetness. Thai tea: 3/5, My boyfriend said it was good. It wasn't too sweet at all. It just didn't stand out. If we are in the area, I would def come in to grab a drink. I would explore their menu a bit more because they are known more for their dessert drinks.

    Middle area of venue upon entering door

    I've patronized several Bambu locations and would share that the Sunnyvale location offers unique and cozy seating areas. On one end it felt like I was sitting under a pagoda. In the middle, there were counter top seating for individual experiences to work/study. On the opposite end was a sit-down gathering area that requests for shoe removal. The fun decor with lanterns, plants, neon light, and television playing calming new age music was inviting. I ordered the Bambu Special, Bambu Favorite and pandan waffle. All were delicious and delivers nostalgia of desserts I grew up with. I will definitely visit each time I'm back in the area again!

    Nice vibe

    5 stars interior vibe but one star removed due to the traditional coffee has too much ice in it, I finished the coffee within one sip. The #1 che with basil seed is great as always

    Cute store. It has been awhile since I have been back. They have a cute seating area in the back. I like it that the drinks are not too sweet. I tried the combo special, it was delicious and filling. I think that is my dinner for the night with the padan waffles. I come here from time to time when I want a Vietnamese snack or drink.

    They have a wide variety of drinks! The shop is colorful and cute, with seating available inside. #6 I tried chè for the first time. It had a high ratio of fruit and toppings compared to the liquid, so it felt more like a dessert than a drink. The drink has a lot of different textures! Mangonada My husband went for the large size. The mango chunks were soft and fresh, making it a super refreshing drink. I wasn't too hungry when I visited, so I personally preferred the Mangonada over #6. Next time, I'll try something other than chè and see what else they have!

Portions are also gigantic and perfect for sharing. They offer a points system via FiveStars to get free food after a certain dollar amount of spend. As of 6/10, cash and credit card are now the same price. Service by the uniformed staff was efficient. The vibes from the Gen Z cashier were lit.
