Reviews for Bambou are mixed, with some diners praising the egg roll, the rice, the chow mein and the garlic shrimp, and noting a varied menu that works well for takeout, while the dining room is closed and ambiance gets no stars for an all takeout experience.

Other items such as the peanut butter dumplings or raviolis are called delicious, yet there is a strong note of disappointment for a dish that seems to be noodles similar to wonton soup served with a very bland peanut sauce, diluted with water. Overall the reflections show dependable staples that can shine, alongside inconsistent results and a clear emphasis on takeout rather than dine in.View restaurant profile
