Bambu is very accommodating to the vegan diet. There are many options on the menu and the food is fantastic. We have been eating here for years. The menu is labeled clearly and the staff are knowledgeable to answer questions.

Always fresh ingredients, thoughtfully prepared and presented. Great service and fair prices for all entrees.

This location is closed. It has been closed for a month. Although they tried to tell me when I ordered over the phone the connection was bad and I did not understand. Now my food is cold.

Living in the suburbs there are not vegan options around so this was my only option really other than chipotle.
The food is never the same. Sometimes it was good others no flavor. Some staff don’t understand what vegan is. Most of the time when we ordered vegan fried rice at least 5 or more times and got home (or had it delivered) and there was egg in it. (Fried rice always tasted like plastic to me, but my mom always got it, no flavor ever).
The food does not match the prices either. So expensive. And to make anything GF is an up charge on their already $17+ meal prices for just a bowl of rice noodles and veggies.
The egg rolls are really good wish they had just a veggie option as I personally don’t eat tofu.
The best thing and the only thing I will order from there now is the mango spring rolls. They are amazing. And bc you really can’t mess up raw ingredients, that’s consistent.
I used to love it here. But the owner whenever we would have an issue with their using eggs in the food, would always give us grief like it was our fault. My mom had to order it vegan and say no eggs and egg would still show up.

Really liked the lettuce wraps which is not something you often find made vegan. The mushrooms in the lettuce wraps were a nice options and had excellent texture. Sticky rice with mango was very flavorful and the yellow Curry had exactly the right amount of spice. Beware the rice paper rolls because they come with meat by default.

The food was super watery the rice was waaaay over cooked. And the customer service was atrocious. Worst Asian food I’ve ever had. Stay away!

Bambú Restaurant provides a taste of Thai, Chinese, Vietnamese and Japanese Dishes. The food was freshly made and loaded with so much flavor. The waiter was respectful and made the dining experience great.I’d give the restaurant a ten if it was possible. I recommend ?

Was in the Maplewood Mall area, decided to pickup some takeout. MISTAKE. Spending over 40 dollars at the Bambu gets 2 thin egg rolls, 6 dumplings the size of my thumb. The best was digging into the Chow Fun and thinking I had gotten a tough piece of beef.....no a piece of plastic wrap, that had been nuked. Was a nice size of plastic hidden in the flat noodles. The dogs loved the remaining Chow Fun, but I've seen them on occasion smack their lips at cat p**** so maybe that explains their palate.......and the care the chef takes in prep.
This food was very tasty. And they can make sesame chicken very spicy when requested, which has been a struggle to find. The calamari was way different and very delicious. Fried and sauced. The mango spring rolls with peanut sauce was also excellent.

Many vegan options! Kung Pao, General Tso, Orange Tofu, Curries, Pad Thai and appetizers. Food is fresh and cooked with love. All your Asian favorites in one place! You feel great after eating here not heavy and gross.

Good food. Quick time for pickup. Everything was correct, and the temperature was fine.Unfortunately, their website wouldn't work for ordering, so we had to call in our order over the phone, which gets complex and tedious when you're ordering for multiple people who each have special requests and add-ons, etc. Hopefully they get their website issues fixed soon.

i got the 1/2 order of orange chicken, a spicy salmon roll, 3 or 4 puffs? and an eggroll. i ordered pick up through their site, and included a tip, all for like $37. seems to be the normal price unless you go to some place like leeann chins lolthe "half" order of chicken was plenty, I have enough for lunch tomorrow still. the eggroll was huge! the puffs were a good size too. i hope this place sticks around.cute lil orchid bloom was nice too :)

Food is delicious, staff is kind and friendly - if you pay with a card, no matter how much your meal is the restaurant charges you a 2.75% transaction fee (usually a set amount). The business is making money on transaction fees - and that feels shady. Bring cash if you don’t want to pay the trans fee.
