I had the Treasure Duck, it was delicious but a very large portion. I also had the calamari rings. The menu is very large and there are numerous vegetarian options, as well as beef, pork, duck, lamb, and chicken. There is a children’s menu as well.

I love Bambu! While it is a little pricier than some other sit-down restaurants in our area, it is totally worth it! The whole place has a very upscale feel to it, a pleasant surprise for our small town. There are some great booths with tall backs that offer a fantastic private dining experience and the atmosphere is always calm and cozy. The menu has a great variety of dishes sure to please even the pickiest of eaters. Definitely one of my favorite unique restaurants in our small area!

I usually do not like Asian food, but my family loves it. When it comes to Bambu I actually agree with them. I have been to Bambu five times now and I am very satisfied every time. Their lunch specials are a great deal and taste amazing! And the servicer are attentive without over doing it. I highly recommend the Bambu!

Service is very professional but, at the same time, warm & inviting. The different entrees we have tried are delicious; portions more than ample. Their wine selections are sufficient and my husband truly enjoyed their warn Saki. We totally enjoy “date” nights at Bambu.

The service was terrible. I sat in there for a good 15-20 minutes before drink orders were taken and a total of 45 minutes waiting for some $13 sesame in lackluster portions and flavor like that of the stuff you buy in the frozen isle at the supermarket. On top of that, you don’t even get soup or rangoons with your dinner. I may try the lunch special to see if that’s worth it, but I’m skeptical at best.
*UPDATE* From 1 star to 4 stars
This restaurant has made marked improvement since opening and I now visit them more frequently. The service is much better and the portion size that I received during my first visit was likely a mistake. I never go to Bambu during dinner hours, as you WILL spend $10.00 on a plate for lunch. Someone will probably argue, and I will say, “What, you don’t tip? Shame on you.” But I digress.
Bambu has definitely made up for the past bad experience I’ve had there, and earned a solid 4-star review.

I love this place. Everything I have gotten I have liked. It is a more expensive place to eat in the area, but it is also a lot nicer than most other places. They also have a “Chinese menu” which is actually written in Chinese and is true authentic Chinese food. My roommate who is from China took me here and ordered food for our group off this menu and it was so amazingly delicious. My favorite was something they called Chinese pork off that menu. Off the regular menu I love the mu shoo pork.

Fine dining Asian restaurant within the city. Great prices and decent quantity for one. They are a mix of Thai and Chinese cuisine. The beer selection is also from all over those countries and also Japan. I had the Sesame Chicken with fried rice. The chicken was great and so was the beer. I had a friend take me there during my visit to Houghton. I can definitely say I would have done the same if I had a guest from out of town visit.

The food was bad. Service was bad. We ordered Kung Po chicken, it was marked spicy on the menu and it had absolutely no flavor. When we asked the server she pointed to the two small hot peppers on the plate for decoration. Sweet and Sour chicken sauce was all vinegar and no sweet. Our server was fast but did not engage us in any way. We did order dumplings and they were alright but we could have gotten these at any Chinese buffet. Sorry to say this place has great atmosphere and was highly recommended but it is not a place we would recommend at all.

Authentic Asian food. Very classy place to enjoy something different. Prices are good for the amount of food you get. The sesame chicken is amazing! The staff are friendly and I have never had a bad experience dinning there.

I have always loved Bambu and been super excited to run there when I visit Houghton, but the last three or four times my oriental waitress has been terrible. Very under spoken and takes my order incorrectly. When I try to explain anything to her she does not admit she has made a mistake.
I’m sure I will return because I love their food, but I will be specifically asking for a different waitress.
Prices also seem to be increasing while service is dealing. Doesn’t exactly make sense.
