About Bamboo Chinese Kitchen

Bamboo Chinese Kitchen is a hidden gem located inside a small casino. This no-frills eatery serves up delicious and affordable meals with generous portions. The menu boasts fresh and flavorful ingredients, with standout dishes like the Kung Pao chicken, stir-fried udons, and the best Hong Kong noodles some have ever had—cooked to perfection with silky, smooth gravy. The chef is accommodating and willing to customize meals, as seen with the vegetarian option. While the smoky environment may not be ideal, the restaurant's value and quality make it a must-visit destination.

The Hot and Sour Soup is a salty but satisfying favorite, while the Egg Flower Soup falls short for some. The Crab Rangoons are not very good, but the Egg Rolls are a better choice. The Pad Thai is tasty but comes in an overwhelming portion size. Chicken dishes can be dry, but the coconut chicken is deep-fried to perfection with a sweet and sour sauce. The owner is friendly and remembers regulars, though service can be slow at times. Cash is often required as the card reader is unreliable.

Despite its casino location and occasional cigarette smell, Bamboo Chinese Kitchen remains a guilty pleasure for many, offering authentic and flavorful dishes at unbeatable prices. It’s the only Chinese food option in town, and for some, it’s their favorite in Nevada.
