" With so many Chinese takeout places around, Bamboo Express managed to grab my attention due to their extensive menu. I had the shrimp fried rice and the kung pao chicken which had a good punch. The portion sizes were quite generous for a fair price, but I wish the shrimp could be fresh rather than pre-cooked. Watch out for busy timings since the wait can get longer. Overall, I’d recommend for takeout on a busy night! " (*Curated Review*)

" Bamboo Express has been my go-to spot after work. The sushi rolls are a must-try - fresh and bursting with flavor! I really appreciate the generous portion sizes that leave me satisfied. The staff is always friendly, though it can be a bit busy in the evenings. I don't mind the wait because the quality is usually solid. Highly recommend their crab rangoons as well! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve learned to love Bamboo Express but it wasn’t an instant decision. The first few times, I found the food to be okay—not particularly great or bad. However, over time they’ve gotten much better! Their teriyaki chicken is fantastic, particularly when paired with their fried rice. Portions have also expanded! I appreciate their service as well; I always feel welcomed. " (*Curated Review*)

" From the moment I walked in, I loved the welcoming atmosphere and the staff were super friendly. I ordered the honey chicken and it was delicious! The honey glaze was perfect. The crab rangoons were the best I've had anywhere. The only downside is that it took longer than expected to get my food, but everything was fresh when I got it. I’ll definitely recommend it to my friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" I decided to try Bamboo Express for the first time and honestly, it didn't live up to the hype. Some of the food was decent, but certainly not authentic. The chicken I had in my sweet and sour dish was rubbery, and the sauce lacked the punch I'd expect. Service was quite slow, which didn't help my experience. I might give it another shot for the crab rangoons, but that's about it. " (*Curated Review*)

" Bamboo Express is a decent place to satisfy your Chinese food cravings. While some items can be hit or miss, their crab rangoons are consistently praised. The seafood offerings might feel a bit lacking, but if you stick with the basics, you’re in good hands. The service tends to fluctuate, but more often than not, they get your food out quickly. Worth trying if you’re looking for takeout! " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing mixed reviews about Bamboo Express, I decided to try it for myself, and overall it was a decent experience. The staff was friendly and welcoming, which made a great first impression. I ordered the Mongolian beef, and while it was good, the quality of the meat raised concerns. Their crab rangoons, however, were delicious! If you're in the area, it's worth checking out, particularly for takeout. " (*Curated Review*)
