The food was delicious and tasted fresh. It was very hot when served, and service was good. You pick your meal and pay before seating. The dining area wasn't too good of an atmosphere it looked more like a storage area. The place was stacked with boxes .

I absolutely love this place! First time going today. The best crab rangoon Don't even get me started on the beef lo mein You get WAY more then what you pay for. Finally, I found an AFFORDABLE and AMAZING Chinese food. Very hard to come by now a days. The service is top notch! The lady up front was so sweet and helpful. The atmosphere was peaceful. I really like how the dining room is separate from the waiting/order area. I have no complaints. This place is amazing and deserves 30 stars

The owners are a husband and wife. I moved from NY where they make top notch Chinese food. After trying many places and being disappointed, I found Bamboo House. This place has the best tasting Chinese food. Towards the end of the night I see them cleaning the whole place. They’re very kind and always smiling. Other Chinese takeout places seem rude and dismissive. A

Finally found good Chinese around. Egg-drop and fried noodles (not the factory bagged ones, the good made in-house fresh).

Some of the best sesame chicken I’ve ever had from one of these kind of local Chinese restaurants. I’ve included a photo in my review however it doesn’t do the food justice I’m afraid. Their Crab Rangoon is also top notch and actually has bits of artificial crab in it instead of simply being a ball of fried cream cheese. The egg rolls earn their keep as well! The lady behind the counter is friendly as well.

I love, love, LOVEEEE Bamboo House. The customer service is PHENOMENAL- every single time. The food is always fresh and delicious, and the owner always works to accommodate any requests if applicable. I can't recommend them enough! I don't eat any Chinese anywhere else anymore, lol.
