Bamboo House The

Favorite lunch buffet and great price! I love the crab Rangoon. My favorite is when they have the walnut shrimp on the buffet. Also the spicy crunchy roll is awesome. My favorite place around for a buffet. You get a lot of choices for the price.

We wanted to try the sushi… not a fan. It was very bland! To top it off it was on the pricey side. Don’t think we will be back. Service was good.

The food was not good. The Tom Yum sauce was a chicken gravy type sauce with little flavor. Not like sauce I’ve had at better restaurants, light and flavorful elsewhere, this was something like what a hack chef would make. Service very slow, with only 4 tables in the place and 2 wait staff, could have done better.

After working hard all day we were looking forward to a good meal at the Bamboo House.
We have eaten there for years and have always had good food up to about 6 months ago it started to go down hill. Tonight’s meal was not good. The Sambol shrimp was tasteless and lately the sauce has been very watery like they just add water when running low. The walnut chicken was also tasteless the sauce being watered down and runny again like the just add water so they don’t have to make more. The walnuts used to be heated and sweet and the sauce thick and a great taste. Not anymore. This time it wasn’t even warm. When the waiter asked how everything was he was told the problems. He said sorry I’ll mention it. End of story. I didn’t even bring it home to reheat cause it still wouldn’t taste good. No manager saying sorry for your crappy meals or «can we get you a complimentary drink or desert or can we take something off your bill because it was bad. Nothing. There are plenty of Chinese restaurants in the area so we won’t be going back there I’m sure.

I had some sushi and a couple of rolls. I also had the tamest wasabi ever. It had absolutely no heat. The rolls tasted great, though, as did the sushi. I would come back but bring my own wasabi!

The bamboo house has an excellent Friday evening buffet I had a wonderful meal glad we went always happy with the food at the bamboo house

I absolutely love the tempura shrimp and fried rice! Whenever I am in town on business, I always visit Bamboo House

Websie says food made from scratch every day, reality is most of the buffet items tasted stale as if they were salvaged from previous day buffet. I didn’t come to asian bistro to eat chicken nuggets, garlic bread and meat balls. Sushi was below average. Except for egg drop soup and noodles rest was bad. I really dont know how these guys are still in business with such low standard food.
On the other side the ambiance, location and service was good.
Would never return.

I stayed at a hotel close by and looked to grab some carry out. Ordered the sesame chicken and crab rangoon. The chicken didn’t taste very good and had a very soft texture. Crab rangoon was ok but nothing spectacular. Maybe eating in the restaurant is better but wouldn’t recommend the carry out

What happened to you, Bamboo house?
I used to live in Stevens Point, and as a vegan, I went out to eat at the Bamboo house at least once a week. They even had a weekly vegetarian buffet. Now the «house» has moved to a beautiful location, but everything else about the place paid for the new décor. I went with my family, and although I was disappointed to see that there were no vegetarian items on the kids menu, I was told they could put tofu in the lo mein instead. Sure, sounds great. I got the curried vegetables with tofu (it was, meh, not bad, but not good like it used to be, passable). I was willing to overlook the mediocre food since my kids liked it, and how many restaurants can you get vegan food at?
So I was out and about with only one of my kids, and no husband, and we decide to have a lunch date. Our new favorite Chinese place, Green Tea, was closed on Sunday, so we went back to Bamboo house. Mistake!!! I asked for the lo mein with tofu again, and I am told it will be an additional $ 1.60, because only protein comes with the noodle dish… Ummm, tofu is protein, apparently they forgot. So I pay an additional $ 1.60, and he gets a plate of oily, simple carb noodles (no veggie, nothing) with 3 pieces of tofu that all together wouldn’t even weigh an ounce. And this was after it took 40 minutes for our food, even though the restaurant was not even close to half full.
I am so sad to see what has happened to my formerly favorite restaurant, new management or something, not sure. Hugely disappointed, and never going back.
Bottom line, Green Tea downtown has fantastic food at a way better price, and better attitudes. Lor’s Market on Church st. has the nicest service, and really excellent food also, a way better option. I wouldn’t waste my time on what was once a great restaurant, but is now just sad, as evidenced by their plentiful empty tables. If it is Sunday and you can’t go to Green Tea, I would even go to Noodles and Co. before returning to this establishment!

Is this the best Asian Fusion food I’ve ever had, no, but considering that I am in the middle of nowhere Wisconsin my expectations were not set very high.
Expecting it to be a small little hole in the wall, I was surprised by the size of the restaurant. There was a nice size bar in the front separated for the main restaurant. The place was very clean and well laid out for how many tables there were.
The staff was very prompt and friendly. They were very helpful in assisting in determining which items that were gluten free or what they could modify to be. I was very appreciative that there was communication between the front of the house and the kitchen to verify ingredients.
The food looked like the menu pictures, which rarely happens in my experience. I opted for the Fresh Thai Basil Shrimp. The veggies were fresh, but the meal wasn’t the most flavorful. All I can say was that the prices were pretty reasonable for the portions you get. If bubble tea is your thing, they have it. Sadly it isn’t GF.

Wasn’t too sure at first but ended up being a great meal, huge servings, and one of the best servings of orange chicken I’ve ever had.

I used to love the food and service.
The food and service is no longer good. I’ve tried several different menu items over that past few months hoping to find the food I used to love, unsuccessfully.
Tonight I gave it one last try. The artichoke curry wasn’t spicy as promised, didn’t have much flavor.
The vegetarian gyoza was soggy and lacked any flavor, it did not come with the usual gyoza sauce.
My advice is to try one of the other Asian restaurants in town. Simones is right across the street, chef chus is at the next exit, or try tempora house. Matsu-​Ya is probably the best in town for sushi, Tokyo Steak house is decent as well.
I will not be going back.
They are expensive for what you get, there are better options in the vicinity.
Please don’t waste your money on an establishment that has stopped trying.

I think this is the place for sushi around town. Not a big fan of those chinese /​japanese places because menu is often average but the sushi here was good and the décor worth the price of admission. Bar area could have been a little more integrated with the dining area.

I wanted to eat Chinese one night.
So I stopped into this place on a whim and ordered take out.
What I got was VERY GOOD, I have been back there a number of times and will continue to go back.

Ambiance-​wise, this place nailed it. Food-​wise, it’s very mediocre.
I stopped going because the food wasn’t up to par. Everytime I went, they changed the items in their box tray. I asked for the yucky Vermicelli noodles to be removed and replace with something edible. They told me that it came with the box tray and for me not to eat it if I don’t like it.
They really try to lure people in with their decors. I’m not foolish enough to return.

Ordered from here again – got the same thing, because I’m a creature of habit. This time? Not so good. The chicken was soggy and didn’t have much flavor. The pork fried rice was okay, but the «pork» in it was more like pork jerky. Ick. It might be a while before I eat at Bamboo House again. Especially since this very mediocre meal cost $ 17, and I had to throw the rest of it away since I couldn’t face the thought of eating gross leftovers.
