Bambara Cambridge offers a comfortable dining experience with pleasant and attentive wait staff. The seafood dishes, including oysters, scallops on top of farro risotto with butter squash, and salmon with crispy Brussels sprouts on a tahini sauce, are highlights of the menu. The oysters, especially Wellfleet oysters, are fresh and flavorful, and the clam chowder receives praise for its quality. Guests enjoy the fresh salads, such as the beet salad with a light, yogurt-based dressing, and the delicious seafood options. The restaurant is located in the Galleria mall, providing free parking, though some find the parking fee to be high. The bar area creates a cozy ambiance, perfect for winding down, with well-crafted drinks and a good selection of IPAs. The restaurant also features a well-curated menu with standout dishes and an overall pleasant atmosphere. The staff, including servers like Athena, are attentive and kind, making the overall experience memorable. Many guests appreciate the fresh salads and generous servings of fruit, along with the seafood dishes like salmon lattkes and swordfish, which are cooked to perfection. Guests have praised the setting, food, and service, although some note that the timing of side dishes and salads could be better coordinated. Overall, Bambara Cambridge remains a favorite spot for a satisfying meal.
