I've eaten at this restaurant for the past 5 years and today was the first time that I've been dissatisfied with the food. We ordered chicken pad thai, chicken fried rice, orange chicken, and shrimp spring rolls. The rice and the orange chicken were good but the pad thai was only okay (and definitely use to be better since I ordered it every time). But what upset me was the 'fresh' shrimp spring rolls. The bean sprouts were brown. I didn't notice until I went to eat the second piece. I googled 'bean sprouts turned brown' and learned that it means their starting to rot. Here's the kicker - I'm pregnant so this is really, really upsetting to me.Maybe this was a bad day for them, but regardless if it was, you should never sacrifice food quality for anything at a restaurantI'm giving 3 instead of 1 star because this is a first time offense and they offered me a free replacement next visit. But I won't be returning.
On3 of my favorite Thai restaurants here in SD. I traveled alot and this is the most authentic I can get for being in Cali. Everywhere else is always a disappointment, so I keep coming back here. I love me my duck Curry
Our go to take out spot, 1x a week is not unusual ?. Bamboo never disappoints!! Well priced, super yummy, we always order enough for leftovers. I especially love the tom yum, just the right amount of umami. Curry fried rice, spicy noodles and panang eggplant are our regulars. The spice level is serious so I’d recommend going 1-2 levels down from your normal number.
NEVER EVER come back to this place which has slowest service and worst food. We were waiting like more than 10 mins to get menu after we sat down. We don’t get any drinks until we asked for. Of course it takes forever to get our food. It’s horrible and I have no idea how come this restaurant rates 4.6. If I could, I’ll give zero star. Don’t waste your money and your time here.
Great service, great food. The waiter was very pleasant and attentive, we felt very comfortable and safe (covid protocols). The food was very tasty and the price seemed fair, our orange chicken even came with desert included.
There was a parking lot so don’t worry about parking! We spent about 60$ for the two of us but you can get really full with 10-20$ per person!This was our first visit but I’m telling you it is a really great place!! The whole atmosphere in the restaurant was great! The cute decorations and music were really relaxing! The staff is so friendly and they kept checking on us and brought us water frequently.The bamboo basket is really good! It was really crunchy, fresh and tasty, the two sauces that came with it were perfect to go with, I especially love that there were two little spoons by the sauce so you won’t get everywhere messy.We had the spicy level 4 green curry and it was really spicy for us but so goood! It’s really flavorful and you can taste the creamy coconut in it!I had a medium rare Tiger Cry Steak but it was too well done and too dry for me, but besides that the vegetables that came with it were fresh and well cooked, the mint sauce was really good too!We loved our dessert!!! The mango sticky rice is a little different than any other mango sticky rice I’ve had before, it’s a little salty and a little sweet, it’s a good balance and you gotta try it yourself!!
The noodles are good, but small portions for the price.. and the crab angel had absolutely no crab in it. I have ordered take out from here twice now and it’s never ready when they say to pick it up. Both times they didn’t even start making the food until I got there. They then tell me it’s going to be 10 minutes, but the food isn’t ready until 20 minutes later.
Just waited an hour for food (after being told 30 min), the lady says "congratulations! your wait is over" when I pick up the food..and then to top it off, I find a piece of wadded up plastic inyango chicken curry!I'm never returning to this place
My friend took me there for lunch. Great little place. Everything was fresh. Had lunch special#3.
Much thanks to you for giving me the best feasting experience! Food varieties are Amazing! You have a client forever!
