    Nice, cozy ambience with spacious area for dinning. Table and chairs were comfortable. Ordered Burmese Chicken Khausay, beef strips with fried rice and fried ice-cream. Icecream was great (9/10) Khausay with extra curry (8/10) Beef sweet flavor with thick crispy coating (4/10) It was a wonderful experience

    Not much of a fan of Chinese food but this box was pretty good. Rice and Shashlik and that chicken Jalfrezi was tasty but those noodles did'nt have that much taste. Some unique sauce with those would be very good.

    A good place to dine out with someone special. A small birthday treat. Lovely Ambiance, a table reserved next to gravel and retro environment. Warmly welcomed by servers with greetings. We ordered Thai Soup, Garlic beef sizzler and egg fried rice. Crackers were complementary and it comes with sauces (which I think it was unnecessary). Crackers were tasting neutral to me, upon asking server revealed it was shrimp but I can’t taste anything like shrimp or prawns. Soup was hot and tasted good. Suggestion: please don’t add anything and make a good stir before having soup. Sizzler does not come with fried rice so while ordering we had to order separately, I think Restaurant should serve with one complementary rice. Rice was tasting good and quantity was filling. One thing I didn’t like as I made card payment, server went to the counter and charged himself, instead Customer should be putting the card onto bank machine and processing. It can lead to any kind of forged transaction. Its a Good place to visit.

    I've been on the lookout for a good sushi place and I've finally found it. Though their sushi options are extremely limited (only 4 options), quality wins over quantity. It is the closest in terms of taste to what I'm used to in Canada. Other Chinese dishes were good too. Just for reference: the one topped with orange sauce is Dynamite Maki roll and the brown one is California Maki roll. Edit: their sushi was warm which tastes fresher and better than the cold sushi i':÷ always had in karachi.

    Value for money due to covid seating is an issue at sindhi muslim Bambou, so pre booking is recommended to avoid waiting outside as the upper floor is closed, rest quality of food is good. And value for money.

    Staff is nice and receive their guests in a good fashion. Waiting area is pleasant enough to let you comfortably spend your queue time. Atmosphere can be rated good but volume of music should be brought down to decent level as it may become noise for many. Order taking, guiding is above par while serving time is just ok. Cleanliness, presentation, quality, quantity and taste of food, all get 5 stars. Overall a very good experience.

  • 4/5 wardah u. 9 months ago on Google • 22 reviews
    I had their hot and sour soup (red) and the chicken tacos. The soup was really nice and filling whereas the tacos were dry. The tortilla was floury but the chicken on it was nice. It lacked that kick of flavor. Overall, not bad.

    Very pathetic service......the way they served the order was really disappointing......fish crackers served were not hot.....no proper crockery was provided by them on table....even upon asking 3 to 4 times they did not even bother to bring the required crockery....food taste was ok not so good.

  • 4/5 M M. 1 year ago on Google
    Food quality is still good not like the other chinese chain, there Dynamite prawns, Fish n chips is yumm n must try items. Main course quantity is good even if you order small portion and that is good for 2. They always listen to special requests like i always go for extra veggies and gravy sauce. Totally recommended. Seating is bit congested due to which 4 points.

    Went to this place on a working day, after 9pm the place was jam packed and there were a lot of people in the waiting area. We have 7 people, we arrived early and we got the best seats. We ordered soup , fried rice , schezwan chicken and crispy beef. The soup took around 15 mins and the main course took around 45-50mins. The food was delicious. We had kids and they gave us high chairs, the place was a little bit congested. But all in all the experience was good. They have valet parking and It's a good thing ,because the location of this establishment is on narrow streets and roads, so it is very difficult to find parking on your own.

    Okayish experience. Dumplings had hard and rubbery covering, chop suey had nimco sticks upon complaining I was told how their chef makes it then they changed it with actual fried noodles but still had those nimco sticks beneath the stack of that.

    This place is famous for the best Chinese food. The ambience was amazing with friendly staff. They even help you decide the menu after knowing your expectations. The prices are a bit on a higher sider, but the food quantity does justice. Highly recommended for family dinners and gathering, etc.

    It was our very first experience at bam-bou(smchs)..Extreme bad service..we waited for whole 1 hour and then they served us only dumplings...they said to wait for another 30 minutes for our remaining order.. dumplings were okay in taste..rice and noodles were good..sizzling fajita chicken was a typical spicy pakistani curry..nothing else..a total disappointment !! Will not go there again.

    Visited this place for the first time for Lunch as me and my friends decided to have Chinese. We ordered Thai Soup and Chicken dumplings for appetisers, Dragon Chicken and Beef chilli dry for main course with Vegetable and egg fried rice. Loved their food. Everything was delicious and I personally loved their currys. Will visit again soon to try other things. A good place to go if you are in Karachi and a Chinese food lover.

    Bamboo restaurant is awesome! The food and service are great, and the place looks nice. The music was too loud, and prices are going up. Luckily, I get a good discount every Thursday with my bank card, so it's still worth it.

  • 3/5 Fahad M. 1 year ago on Google
    Had an iftar here and it was OK. Their taste and and service is better in normal days as compared to Ramadan. AC was also not working. Tried special soup, dynamite chicken and crispy fish in starters. Chicken was good but fish had bad smell. Bambou special soup had same great taste. Chicken chow mein, fried rice, beef chili dry, sizzling chicken Manchurian were good.

    Went there in my sister’s birthday. The place is super congested. They have this wierd round stairs system to go up. Also very dangerous for elderly. Coming to the food. Food is super Aberage considering the area and the price. I thi k it was below average. The only thing i liked here is the service. Even the place was congested. Their service is super fast.

    Enjoyed my love of chinese...we ordered hot and sour soup,American chopsuey and chicken shashlik with rice.....the soup was spicy and was missing the main ingredient (chicken) immensely so we asked the waiter,he immediately replaced it....very happy with their service...American chopsuey was a little sweet to me and the chicken shashlik stick was okay....overall enjoyed their food and service....will visit again InshAllah

  • 5/5 Faria K. 9 months ago on Google
    We have tried several Chinese restaurants in Karachi, and this is one of the best restaurants in terms of food, ambiance, and service. We had a small dinner get-together for about 18 people. We made reservations ahead, and by the time we got there, everything was ready. Our server, Mubarak Ali, did a great job of taking our orders and serving us. The food was delicious, and the service was absolutely perfect. We were too excited for food and forgot to take pictures. 😀 We ordered hot and sour white soup, dynamite chicken, chicken fried rice, beef chow mein, sizzling beef, and black pepper chicken. They offer valet parking for their guests.

    Chinese are always expensive in Karachi. Same case here in bam bou. Bam-bou is better than ginsoy. Their food taste good. Momos were utterly disappointment.

  • 1/5 zunair k. 2 years ago on Google
    Had the worst experience ever at bambou Sindhi Muslim branch. They tried to sit us next to the toilets and it stank like the washrooms have never been cleaned. Requested to change our seats and they sat us on broken chairs. About the food- the prawn crackers were saggy and not properly cooked. The oil hadn’t been rinsed. Got my chow mien after 20 minutes of finishing my soup after enquiring with the staff. When it finally received it, it was cold and tasted as if it had been sat on the counter for some time. Never coming back here

  • 1/5 Misbah F. 2 years ago on Google
    Such a bad first experience! I didn't like the food! My friends and I ordered the Chicken Manchurian and their "Special" Rice that was very smelly because of the prawns. The taste was like the odour spilled over the rice. They changed the "Special" rice with the vegetable fried rice. But seriously, the smell wasn't good enough! I am not going to try this again! I am giving 1 star just because of their cooperative management and ambiance!

  • 2/5 Gaurav k. 2 years ago on Google
    So I ordered chowmein from Bam-Bou and this is the quantity I got for 900 rupees. Secondly I ordered with a discount through a debit card, the rider didn't bring the machine to swipe the card and when I called Bam-Bou they were like "aap next time use kar lijiyega discount, abhi aap full payment kardein" like man what is this behavior. And the time before that when I ordered from Bam-Bou they took so long to deliver the order that when I received it the noodles were cold and soggy. For the money they are charging their services are mind numingly steep.

  • 2/5 Zareesha S. 3 years ago on Google
    Bam-Bou -SMCHS Worst customer service! Waiters were standing so near that I could smell them. The soup was bland, and the main course took nearly 30 minutes to come. The music was loud, we asked 3 times to lower it down, then they took action. While we were eating, the waitress showed up and asked that she could remove the plates. Seriously? The food was bad and the service was poor. There are so many places around, please don't bother to go there. Over crowded decoration and seating arrangement. And there was an uncle in uniform who might be the manager. He should learn to respect the personal space and not to shout at their staff in front of the customer. And yes, they have heater instead of AC 🤣 Place not worth to visit second time. Staff was trying really hard to work.. Slow service.. Bland food.. Waste of money.. Manager was standing on our head and staring us.. Might be not my day..
