Bambusa continues to deliver tasty gluten free ( and regular) chinese dishes and its popularity is growing… judging by last night’s ‘no free tables’ crowd.

Never disappoints. The food was delicious like always & William’s recommendations were once again spot on. The pork xiao long bao was the highlight of the night. The fish cooked three ways was a close second. Can’t wait to go back!

The staff were friendly and helpful. The food was delicious as always. A few people close to us (at least 2) in the restaurant had the ringers on their phones turned on. This is intrusive and annoying. Not the restaurants fault. However it may be helpful to ask patrons to turn their phones to silent while in the restaurant.

We love Bambusa and the food is always good; the service tonight was ok, but mb because of it being a Sunday and long weekend, it was a bit lacking. The noise in the restaurant does get a tad bad some days but all of it made up for by the quality of food served, always.

Great food and good serving portions. Took a while for the drinks to arrive but then we had fun. We were reseated when one of our guests didn't arrive so we lost the comfortable seating and in a warmer location but ..... the food and company made up for it.

A little more effort in to the timing of dishes coming to the table (eg rice 10 mins after main meat dish came out and the prawns another 15 mins after that. Otherwise, no problems. The food is sensational! Service quite good. A very good experience overall.

Unbelievable dumplings, very fresh, great serving size meals. Fried rice a bit dry. Great service and atmosphere but dining tables are very close to one another. So much so, you can participate in another diner's conversation. A bit more space would be great.

First time dining there, food was deliciousness - value for money and great service. Everything was delightful, however was a little disappointed with the honey chicken and hot and sour soup dumplings - the dumplings were divine but the hot and sour soup - not so much; it could be just a preference of taste and texture. Lovely service from all staff. I will be going back. Thank you
