★★★☆☆ 3.0 Monika Rajnala · Oct 2025

It was an okay experience here not particularly great. Perhaps we just didn’t know the best dishes to order. The wonton soup was quite good, but the rest of the food was just average.

★★★★★ 5.0 Marcello L. · Jan 2026

I decided to give Bamboo Bistro a try, and I’m really glad I did. The food was absolutely amazing—fresh and flavorful. The staff were polite, friendly, and made the whole experience feel welcoming from the moment I walked in for my pick up order. Great service, great food, a place I’ll definitely be coming back to.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 breathingplanet · Dec 2025

We asked for no sauce and they put mayo on the sushi. Mayo on sushi is disgusting. I realize some people think that's ok, but if you specifically ask for no sauce... then hold the grossness! Please. Now we know. :( most food was good but mayo ruined the experience (as it will do!).

★★★★★ 5.0 Armin Fernando · May 2018

The food is excellent but our server Nikki is beyond awesome. She was on point with care. The ambience is explicit. Not crowded and the whole restaurant is clean. Groupon is not acceptable for lunch special. We ordere fried rice special, taco sashimi, Japanese sushi be sashimi, shrimp dumplings and blanched bokchoy on the side. We will be back.

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Skiz Wald · Jul 2025

Didn't like a single thing. The chicken was soggy and mushy. Seemed like it was precooked and microwaved. The scallion pancake, while crispy, was extremely greasy. Spring rolls soggy and extremely greasy on the inside. Brown sauce was bland. Even the fortune cookies were stale. Would not recommend and will not order from here again.
