    Pad Thai with tofu
    Rey K.

    I ordered the food through doordash. I read the reviews and decided to order. This place had 9k reviews with 4.5. I'm thinking it's going to be great. I usually go to yelp and Google to read reviews and see the rating. It was late and I wanted Asian food. I got the pad Thai with tofu and my kid got chicken fried rice with no veggies. Of course on doordash the price for each dish was over $17. I get it, door dash have to make their cut. I would say overall, the food didn't have flavor and tasteless. I had to put Sriracha sauce on my noodles and my kid added soy sauce to her rice. I don't think I would return to this place. I wish the food tasted better. I love trying out new Asian restaurants when i can. My partner doesn't care for it too much.

    Mystery place looks like it's closed but when u enter it's so good the food is great here and my family I went here and when I tell u this has to be the best Chinese food I've ever had in my whole life of living we've always been passing by it in our time living here in Austin and its so life changing.

    Lo Mein + dumplings

    This place is by far the best hangover Chinese, night in, lunar new year, movie night, affordable takeout food. There are "fancier" Chinese places in the city to order from but they don't travel well whatsoever. Bamboo bistro travels incredibly well. The food is classic, comforting Chinese food. Generous portions. Great for large parties. Quality ingredients. I served this when I hosted my sex and the city season two watch party - and it was a hit. Don't sleep on the lo mein.

    Jalapeno Crab Wontons (6 pcs)
    Pax S.

    I had a barber appointment next door so I stopped in as I had been to the Bamboo Bistro near the Domain. There were zero prices on the menu, the dining area and exterior of the building were harrowing, and the view of the kitchen was rough. Still, the food was decent -- I highly recommend the jalapeño cream cheese wontons. The chicken is always the same...overcooked and quite flavorless. The fried rice was lacking flavor as well and was super oily. The staff was super nice but I won't be back...

    Consistent, good food, good proportions and inexpensive. This is my go-to Asian food spot. The jalapeño crab Rangoons and Thai soup are 2 of my favs. The soup is soooo good, I want it in my veins!! Perfectly spicy, citrusy, and salty. These are some of the best Rangoons too. I got general tso chicken for the first time, wasn't my fav it had a very slight burnt taste BUT it was still good.

    Based on the mixed reviews for Bamboo Bistro, I had low expectations, but they did not disappoint! What really impressed me was their customer service. I placed my order through the Grubhub app (sorry Yelp, I had credits!) and someone called to confirm my order and delivery time. Since they are drive-through only, I waited in line for a few minutes for the other cars ahead of me. When I got to the window, the attendant apologized for the wait (which really wasn't that long). He also acknowledged the notes in my order, which I really appreciated (I wanted a non dairy option for my Thai iced tea if they had it, but they don't). I love the level of detail they put into their takeout orders, especially how they beautifully packaged the crab rangoons. I'm not quite sold on the pad Thai but am willing to go back to give their other dishes another try!

    Everything tasted drab and sameish. I've tried it a few times because it's close to where I work. Just not worth it.

    I don't think I have ever had anything bad from here. I drive across town for their soup and Pad Thai. Fast and fresh.

I love the Loro in DFW, but the original location in Austin is where it all began. This is a must visit. My Overall Rating - 5 Stars (Atmosphere, Service, Food, Return) Atmosphere - The cuisine is creative and elegant, but Loro's genius is its ultra casual setting. Instead of white tablecloth and fancy silverware, there are wooden picnic tables that maximize seating while mimicking the comforts of your backyard. "Grab a beer from the cooler and sit at a picnic table" vibe. 1 Star. Service - There's no beer cooler, but there is an awesome staff that begins with taking your order at the bar. They'll give you a buzzer, and when your food is ready the Loro team will bring the dishes straight to your table. The service is so great and efficient and it's like "fine dining" fast casual. 1 Star. Food - The menu is very unique, mixing Texas smokehouse techniques with Asian underpinnings. The Pork Belly Char Siu is a must order. We ordered this (non-bowl version) because we wanted to focus on the hoisin sauce, super tender "melt in your mouth" pork belly with pickled cucumbers to help cut the richness. We also ordered their Texas Two Step lunch of a juicy onion burger and potatoes that reminded us that Loro can do fancy and comfort at the same time. Both dishes were satisfying and delicious. 2 Stars. Will I Return? - Yes. I live in Dallas and Loro has opened in North Texas, but the original location in Austin is a great rzeminder of how great restaurants are meant to be shared with others. 1 Star.

    I saw the sushi tacos on Instagram and honestly wasn't sure I believed the hype, but I thought they…read morewere worth trying. They absolutely were. I got an order delivered by Uber Eats and ordered the marinated yellowtail taco, carne asada taco, and a shrimp tempura roll. Everything was superb. The ingredients tasted incredibly fresh, and you could tell there was real thought and intention behind every item. I started with the yellowtail taco, and it was genuinely one of the best bites of food I've had in a really long time. The crispy nori shell gives you all the flavors you love in sushi but creates a completely different--and surprisingly easy--way to eat it. The carne asada taco was just as delicious, and even the shrimp tempura roll was beautifully done, with lightly battered shrimp and fresh, crisp ingredients. I shared the food with my 10 year-old who thoroughly enjoyed it as well! Everything was packaged well and the bag arrived securely stapled shut. I would order this combo again and again. Worth every bite.
