Wonderful Hidden Gem !!!! Was given a suggestion by a friend to give Bambu in Richardson a try if I enjoyed Thai food, which I do. Thought I would drop in for lunch today and found a Hidden Thai Gem in Richardson that everyone should put on their regular restaurant list. Met at the front door with a fantastic greeter in a young lady that continued as our waitstaff throughout the meal and we could not have asked for better service - it was fabulous ! Now to the most important - the food, two dishes were ordered at our table and both of them went above board on appearance and taste. The first one was Panang Curry - we decided to order this on a spice level 2. You can order on spice levels 1-3. Our decision was perfect for our taste. Very spicy but not over the top that it masked the tastes of the ingredients which included Chicken,coconut milk, bell pepper, zucchini, kaffir lime leaves, Thai basil all swimming in a broth that was incredible. Off to the side was a mound of Jasmine Rice - our decision was to combine the two into one dish and what an amazing combination we achieved. Our second dish was the Bambu Specialty Crab Fried Rice which came with just the right amount of ingredients of meat, egg, tomatoe, onion, and scallions. It came out as a fried rice dish that made a meal in itself with no need for any addition seasonings. The owners of the establishment came over and introduced themselves to us due to the fact that we had been referred to them and they were so gracious and had their space so well decorated in the era to note not only present time asian cultures but past time asian cultures as well. The interior was very well done. So if you have not found this Hidden Thai Gem in Richardson, venture off to the southeast corner of Coit/Campbell - trust me, you will not be disappointed !!

This is a post about management, not the food or service both of which are good. For context we ve been going to Bambu since it opened and during the pandemic we picked up at least once a week there because I wanted to see a local place make it. So tonight my daughter and I went and we both ordered pad see ewe with chicken, mild for her medium for me. Both came out super spicy, great for me, but impossible to eat for her. Mistakes happen and we asked that hers be remade mild as we ordered. When the waiter bright it back (perfectly mild this time) he admitted the kitchen messed up but also told us that the owners told him next time a dish comes out too spicy THEY WILL NOT REMAKE IT. I asked him to repeat that because I couldn t believe what he just told me. Sure enough, that s what they said. He even apologized. Hard to imagine a restaurant getting out of sorts about a $12 dish that THEY MESSED UP, and are willing to lose customers over it, but here we are. Too bad they make a fantastic pad see ewe, but I guess we ll go to Asian Mint from now on. Can t risk being forced to pay for and eat a dish we didn t order. Crazy.

I love hanging out with friends at Bambu. We had fresh conch larb (off menu special) ... so yummy! We also have oyster salad, creamy Pacific Coast oysters tossed in a spicy-citrus dressing with fried onions and garlic. The Pad Kee Mao Boran is always a go-to for me - fresh, thick rice noodles with its aromatic wok char. We also have a bottle of 2016 Twommey Merlot, always love exploring their wine menu - very extensive and diverse.

It is the worst food I have ever eaten among Thai food restaurants. I could taste stale meat. There were not enough vegetables. The food was too salty and too sweet. Some employees did not respond to my request. Only one employee served me. The others ignored me when I needed something.

Service was excellent. Atmosphere was quaint but mostly typical for a small strip shopping center location. Prices were reasonable, including for modifications which was a nice surprise. We got pad kee mao with tofu, yellow curry with chicken, and peanut chicken with chicken. The pad kee mao was good. About as good as pad {whatever} at other places. The yellow curry had a tiny bit of spice but otherwise very little flavor. The color was extremely pale; like it was almost entirely coconut milk and very little actual curry ingredients. If you dont like curry... you might like this. The carrots were giant chunks. Almost like sweet potatos... But they were carrots. Both the carrots and the potatoes were under cooked. The chicken had that slightly metallic flavor and chewy texture of over cooked chicken. While not great, we finished the dish. The peanut chicken we did not eat more than 2 bites of. Its false advertising to call that peanut sauce it was the consistency of water... It had very little flavor... Mostly salty like a garlic sauce or something you might get at a other Thai restaurants. Thats not what I think of when I think of peanut sauce and it isnt what we wanted, so we didnt eat it enough to say more than that.

My family loves eating here and we have been able to reliably order gluten free; however, over the last several months, many Items that were GF are no longer GF so that our options are now pretty limited. Gluten free options are marked on the menu, but make sure to ask as lately things are no longer GF and the menu hasnt been updated. Dietary restrictions: There are some gluten free options but make sure to double check as sometimes they are no longer being served GF.

Everything about this place was amazing. The service and attention was exceptional and the food was amazing. Bambu was my first experience with Thai food, and I have to admit that I am grateful that it was, the bar is set really high now. The curry was delicious, the noodles were cooked to a perfect point and the complementary soup literally warmed my insides to the point I felt relief. I completely recommend this place, the food is amazing, but as a new person in town, it was the costumer service what I loved the most. Made me feel welcomed from the very beggining until we left.

Worst Thai food I have ever eaten, BAR NONE, coupled with stingy proportions and high prices. The po tak tastes like they didnt even bother to season it. It doesnt even have as much flavor as a basic tom yum. It is the worst I have ever had. The base tastes (I kid you not) like ocean water, like I went to an ocean and accidentally swallowed some of the water after I went for a dip. I know that taste anywhere. There was barely any protein for the escalated price (3 small shrimp, 3 little mystery fish pieces, 3 unfresh muscles, NO SCALLOPS!). I threw it away after about 8 spoonfuls. This costed about $20. Absolutely disgusting. The summer rolls are half as big as pictured and come with iceberg lettuce, not the nice quality salad pictured online. The TWO of them make up ONE roll from any other Vietnamese or Thai restaurant I have been to in the area. The shrimp tasted like ammonia almost, very unfresh. I gagged. The peanut butter dip tastes like straight up white vinegar. What were these people thinking with this? $7 worth of more trash. I also got the chicken green curry and added shrimp for $3 extra, for a total of $16 plus tax. It came with NO CHICKEN, half liquefied spoiled veggies, and exactly 3 SMALL shrimp. It tasted like spicy, watery cheese, not curry at all. Again, I gagged. The proportion was lunch sized (it came in a half-filled medium-sized tray, not a clear cylindrical container youd receive anywhere else). I tried to finish it but, again, I threw this out. Stay far away from this shabby, wannabe restaurant and save your coins for a place that has better cooks and ethics. This place is a cheating, nasty money-grab. Im seriously considering having my bank reverse this charge due to the blatant fraud, something I havent done in years and have never had to do with food. I spent $60 for trash.

I got the yellow curry to go. The packaging was bad because they put liquid curry in a shallow plastic container that was completely spilling outside the edges of the lid and in the bag. It probably shouldve been packaged in a soup container due to the volume of liquid. The portion size was crazy small for it being a regular $14 entree rather than a lunch special. Taste was good, but def not enough portion wise. It was busy, so maybe Ill try again another time.

Hefty price for the worst Thai food Ive ever had. Krapow fried rice was utterly bland on medium level spicy. Chicken was bland and very dry. Cherry on top is that the portion sizes are honestly quite small compared to what Im used to. Service isnt great, waiter actually made fun of one of my food preferences. Must be because tips are incorporated into your bill automatically. Overall a disappointing experience.

My husband and I love Thai food and have tried probably 10+ places in DFW. Bambu is always our go-to for Thai. Their pad thai in particular is amazing. It s not overly sauced (which I really can t stand), not too greasy, and has the perfect balance of flavors. We almost always get take out (parents of a toddler), and have never once been disappointed. I will say that the portions may be slightly smaller than some other restaurants, but I prefer smaller portions of great food than a huge portion of mediocre food.

Our new favorite Thai restaurant. The service is friendly and the waitress made some awesome recommendations so we try some new dishes. The cured sausage/meat was very good. The fried rice was a surprise. Didn t expect fried rice to be so tasty. LOL. The desserts were creative and more transitional ones were great. Check it out.

Food was good. The service was ok. He was nice but spilled the soup. The prices were a little high but the flavors compensated.

Something special about this place. I venture out and try most all the local spots. I m mad at myself as I ve lived in Richardson as long as Bambu Thai has been open and even though I knew of its existence I never came until tonight. Its kind of funny in hind sight how my wife and I were so indecisive on picking a place to eat tonight as we wasted too much time brainstorming where to go because we spoke of wanting something great/enjoyable and we were tired of frequenting the convenient usuals and feeling stuck in a rut however due to lack of time and unable to make up our minds we pulled over at Coit and Campbell and Thai sounded ok. Best decision I never made!!!! We left there feeling WOW d. I love the restaurants that don t cut corners. There is knowledge and passion behind this food. No bases but raw ingredients that make the food. Execution/flavor was on point. I could go on and on and they deserve it but I guess to sum it up, this is the food that instantly turns your previous local favorites into just ok. I can t wait to try what else they have. We will definitely be frequenting this place and won t be so indecisive as this is a clear choice with no regrets! Great job and thank you for doing what y all do. I know it s not the easiest way to cook/run a restaurant but I am truly appreciative. Extra stars if it was an option

Umm yes please! Grabbed lunch here with my partner and it was just scrumptious! We got the Pad See Eew and the Krapow Fried Rice as well as fried spring rolls to start. If you go at lunch many of the entrees are only $8!

Server need more training! She asked to take the soup bowl before I could finish it. Reached across our table to get the empty sauce dish. After giving us the ticket - she stood by the table while my husband pulled up his cash to count. Food was good but server lack training.

Very very good. Issam style thai food. Very different from your traditional Thai food you find around dfw. My fiance and I loved it. We first saw it on asian grub dfdub fb page. We ordered 5 items from the menu on the wall next to the bar.

Bambu has got to be the best thai place in America. I have always had more than a satisfactory experience. Staff is incredibly nice and everything you order whether it is a special, appetizer or dessert tastes amazing, evidently made with love. They are also so receptive to feedback and are willing to adjust their dishes to cater all customers. I recommend Bambu to anyone and everyone.

Vibe is good, drinks are strong enough, food tastes rather good, but... curry was watery, skimpy with meat, portion sizes are tiny, seasoning is good but flavors not particularly deep or complex, so overall poor value for price + presentation can be better. Customer service is good. I would take a date here if they were a heavy drinker and light eater, but I recommend Noodle Wave over this.

BEST Thai food I have ever found in Dallas, very authentic. The food is made to order, and comes out very hot and fresh. I ve had the yellow curry, cashew chicken, and pad Thai and all were fantastic. Great satay appetizers and the edamame was very fresh. Highly recommend! Haven t had Thai food like this since living in Los Angeles.

This place is special! Truly a jewel of a restaurant in the far west Richardson area. This place sustained my wife and I through the pandemic with excellent take out. We developed a great rhythm having a weekly home date night that included kids to bed early, Netflix, wine and cashew chicken from Bambu! Dining-in has a true date night feel with great service, relaxed vibe, awesome nightly specials, and a fun drink/wine list to choose from. Speaking of specials, last night I had the frog legs and.....wow! That was definitely a step out of my comfort zone but It was highly recommended and did not disappoint! Cant recommend it enough! Go there! Soon!!!

Never been before & never will go back. My all time favorite is Cashew Chicken. This was the worst. No sauce all watery liquid. Had to use the whole container of rice or get a spoon & eat like soup. Chicken dried out. Big chunks of green peppers & onions that tasted raw. Couldnt find the cashews. Worst of all... served in a container the size of a Lean Cuisine. Waste of money. So sorry I went.

Good food and clean, comfortable dining area. Good for a quick sit down dinner or take out. We like to order extra and make it a sit-down dinner AND takeout at the same time :)

Tried it out bc this place has so many good reviews. Picked up dinner to go last night. The pad Thai came out in the shape of the tray. A solid brick. So old and disgusting. Got chicken and beef fried rice and it was so over seasoned it was inedible. I don t live near here so it was pointless to drive back. $30 down the drain.
