I was so skeptical to cheat on my old Chinese place. I am so glad I did because the food is top their and so is the service. Bamboo House will be my spot from now on.

Not sure which one of these food caused it but my kids got sick. Ordered yesterday 3 of my kids are now having stomach ache and have been throwing up. I myself am starting to feel sick as well. We all ate the orange chicken and the sesame chicken. I’m pretty sure we have food poisoning.

I wanted to love this place because it’s close to our house, but we weren’t really impressed by any of it. We did a take out order. It took them a little longer than expected, but they were very friendly. It all just needed a little more flavor.

This location is newer, so we will given them a second try when they’re a little more settled. I will be interested in trying some of the teriyaki or Vietnamese items to see if that’s any better.

Seemed like a clean place and service was ok but my food was horrible. Save your money.

We ate here for the first time and loved it!! We had the beef bulgogi bowl and kimchi Jjigae soup. Both were hot and delicious! The service was attentive and quick. We can’t wait to come back and try more of the menu.

Very glad to see a new place in the community with delicious food! Great experience on our first visit and we will definitely be back.

Carried out but inside looked new and clean when picking up. Very friendly service over the phone when placing my order and during pickup.

All of the food was wonderful. Spring rolls were big and delicious — typically fried spring rolls are very small but these were much larger and freshly fried. I loved the fried shrimp shumai and often I only see pork shumai on the menu at other restaurants in the area. The chicken wings were fresh, crispy and the soy garlic sauce was really good. My favorite part was the pho, which was packed with so much care for my to-go order and tasted fantastic. My husband tried the beef bulgogi and really enjoyed it. Everything was classic and what you expect when ordering but very well done and tasty.

And the best part was we could try so many menu items on our first visit and it was still so affordable. I was surprised at our total for so much food — I think many similar restaurants would’ve have cost $25+ more than what we spent in total.

I had the steamed dumplings for an appetizer, Lo Mein Chicken for the main course and the iced coffee. It was all very delicious and there was a large serving of the Lo Mein so you definitely get your money’s worth. The waitress was very friendly and attentive. I would highly recommend this to others and look forward to going there again in the near future!

Really good Chicken and Beef Teriyaki. I got it for carry-out and it was fresh, hot, and super tasty. The mix of meat and veggies felt balanced and healthy, not heavy or greasy like a lot of takeout can be. The chicken especially was awesome.
Staff were friendly and the place looked nice and clean inside. Definitely going back here.

We ate here for the first time today and it is fantastic. Our 4 year old loved his lo mein, my husband's Beijing beef was perfection and I absolutely loved the hunan chicken. We also had the fried rice and crab Rangoon, both if which were delicious. We will definitely be back. This place is well worth a visit.
