I LOVE the hot and sour soup! In addition the other day I had a mixture of vegetables with chicken. Absolutely delicious also. Being a Vietnamese Restaurant it does a great job at meeting our needs with various food options. I highly recommend trying and have no doubt that you would not be disappointed.

The place was beautiful and small and cozy. I went in with my family and family friends for my birthday dinner. The menu is fairly priced and has chinese and thai dishes. They have a large menu and a variety of options. The drunken noodles was the only dish which threw us off but the waitress was sweet enough to substitute it for something else that we would like. The place is a must try for a small gathering or lunch or dinner. They do have parking, its small but substantial for 6 cars. You can also find street parking.

We just discovered this place. It’s now our favorite go-to Asian restaurant. Chinese, Thai and Japanese dishes. Good food, great service, awesome value. And they have free parking, albeit a small lot in front. Our favorite server is Joyce. She’s the best! Highly recommend!

Pretty good wonton soup and 3 sisters noodle dish with pork. A little sad to find roughly 1-2 square cm of egg shells in the dish, but it was extra nutrients for my body so I can’t complain. Five

The food tasted pretty good, but the portions were small. I know it’s gourmet but I’d hope the fried rice would be more than 4 mouthfuls for the price.

10/10 recommended!! I ordered the sesame tofu lunch bento box & it came with sesame tofu, sushi, salad, rice & miso soup .. Huge portions of everything, picture doesn’t do justice!! The sesame tofu was quite possibly the best thing I have ever eaten, the outside was so crunchy and perfect! Everything was absolutely delicious and so fresh. The restaurant was also super clean and the staff was super friendly!! Thank you Bambu!!
