No surprise this place is amazing as it is affiliated with Brodard Château off of the 22 and Magnolia. Every dish we had was fantastic. The dipping sauces were even better. The service was prompt and helpful. This place was packed with locals OK midweek. The inside of the restaurant has a modern Asian vibe. If you want amazing Vietnamese plate food don't miss this place. Parking can be tricky. We parked down the street in the residential area and had a nice walk. read more

We came out to Bamboo Bistro to celebrate Father's Day and left feeling utterly disrespected. The service was terrible and we felt like we were being discriminated against and shoved into a corner to be ignored. It took us 30 minutes of sitting there to even get a server to take our food order. Understandably, the staff were busy due to the holiday, but we would actively see staff being far more attentive to the tables around us when we never even got water we ordered when we sat down. When we called for staff, it was as if they were actively avoiding us to be more attentive to the "white" tables. It took us calling for them 5 times before they finally had someone actually notice that we hadn't gotten any drinks and hadn't put in an order for food. Even when we finally got a waiter, he scrambled off before we were finished ordering our food. The food was good but no amount of good food is worth the disrespect my family felt. ESPECIALLY on a holiday dinner like this. I wouldn't come back. read more

This is a great spot in CDM. I've been here twice with family and the food is delicious! They have a variety of pho soups, noodle dishes, curries, as well as the classic pad thai and pad see ew. They also have lots of clean, gluten free, low carb, or vegetarian options. One of our favorites are the edamame dumplings. Very unique and tasty. The Shaken Beef in garlic sauce was so good. The silver (glass) noodles were also yummy. If you like pad thai and seafood, this is a good option to get to switch things up. It's has a fish sauce flavor to it and comes with lots of crabmeat and shrimp. The House vermicelli is a great option as well and you can't go wrong with any of the curries or soups. Service is friendly and attentive. They were very accommodating for parties of 6+. Decor is clean and modern. It's lively inside and welcoming. Highly recommend! read more

We've been coming to Bamboo Bistro for seven years, and we absolutely love it! The food is always fresh, delicious, and amazing quality. Our favorites are the pork spring rolls, seafood crêpes, and pork chops. They also have amazing desserts--especially the fruit Delight dessert, which we always take home! The staff and managers are so friendly and welcoming. We feel very lucky to have Bamboo Bistro in our neighborhood. Our whole family loves this place! read more

Went here with my girlfriend on a Saturday evening and we were seated quickly! Also this restaurant is very beautiful inside. The staff is also very friendly and helpful especially when it came to asking about food allergies which I appreciate very much. I ordered the "pho ga" chicken noodle soup and edamame dumplings. The Pho was good and the chicken broth was flavorful and the chicken was tender. Overall pretty standard for a pho. I've never had edamame dumplings before and was excited to try them and enjoyed them very much! They were tasty and they gave a good amount as well! read more

You know what, they had the Brodard spring rolls, which for me, worth the stopping in alone.

This is a beautiful restaurant with helpful staff and pretty good food! Our server continued to check on us and was helpful regarding food allergies! My boyfriend and I went on a Saturday evening around 5pm and we were able to be seated right away. It did get busier as the evening went on! We each got an order of pho, I got the veggie & tofu one with chicken broth (though vegetarian broth is available). But we actually started with an order of edamame dumplings. I didn't think I was going to like these as much as I did but they were flavorful and unique because of the edamame filling! The dipping sauce was a nice soy sauce with just the right amount of sweetness. The pho was pretty standard but I do appreciate they gave a fair amount of noodles and the veggies and herbs were fresh. I would've preferred a fried tofu over a silken tofu but I suppose this was healthier haha! read more

FOOD: The food here is soooo delicious! I've been here a few times and everything I've had here has been great! So fresh and flavorful! This time we got the Vegetable egg rolls, Vietnamese egg rolls, Crispy Noodles with Beef, Cashew Chicken, Tofu salad, and Vegetable Fried rice. For dessert, we tried the fruit salad and sesame balls. Everything was wonderful! SERVICE; The service was great! Our server was very nice and helpful. AMBIANCE/DECOR: It's really nice inside. They've actually extended the inside so it's bigger, which is great because they get so busy all the time. I'll definitely continue to come back here when I am craving Thai/Vietnamese food! read more

I'd give this more of a 4.5 just because the service was lacking but honestly the food made up for it. It was a busy night so the slow service was somewhat understandable. It does need to be worked on. The restaurant is very nice and modern. Prices are extremely reasonable for the area and the flavors are exquisite. I'd personally recommend the nem spring rolls, caramelized fish clay pot, and egg rolls. The shaken beef had good flavor but was a little overcooked and was cut in too small of pieces in my opinion. Overall, a place I'd come back to. Tons of options to choose from! read more

Yesterday 6/26/26 my mom and I came in here for an early lunch at 11:00 am. We had a bit of a mix up with the vegetable broth, but that was soon fixed. The chicken lettuce cups and the broth were phenomenal as always. Our server I believe his name is Long he was there at 11:00 am, not the one with the glasses on. He was spectacular and made sure we were happy and that everything was good. Plus we were celebrating my birthday and he made it so special. This is just another reason why we keep coming back and getting food to go as well. I just wanted our server to get full recognition for his amazing service. read more

Everything went well! The food was good and the service was good! It has a nice ambiance! Very modern style! The pad thai was good specially on rainy days which when we went there it was cloudy! The soup base isn't as authentic or maybe it was just me I don't like my broth to be too sweet and this was the case. The pad see ew was excellent! I wish there was more bok choy. Last but not least the Traditional Vietnamese eggroll! It was delicious! It is my favorite eggroll and the dip sauce was great too! I will be back for these and the pad see ew and the eggrolls! I would highly recommend this restaurant it is a comfortable place and you'll enjoy your food even when you go and eat by yourself! Just the hardest part was the parking... other than that IT SURELY IS WORTH THE DRIVE! read more

Woah - who knew Newport Beach area would have such a good asian spot! Everything here was very flavorful and the fish sauce was superb. The best part is the fact that they allow dogs in their outdoor seating. There are two tables outside, one is shaded by the awning connected to the building and the other outdoor table is shaded by umbrellas. Back to the food. I came with three other people and we ordered quite a bit of food: Grilled pork spring rolls - so good! I love grilled pork so this was one of my favorite dishes. I saw a bag that said brodard so I'm wondering if that owner is part owner of this restaurant too. If that's the case, then we definitely know what it's so good! Shrimp spring rolls - my cousins favorite. It's good but I am generally not a huge fan of the shrimp. My preference is the grilled pork. Chicken wings - It's good but I would probably pass on this next time. They give lots of onion which tastes great with some rice. Green curry - one of my other favorites. So tasty! Can't complain. Another plus is that it has eggplant in there (which I love). Perfectly cooked and well made. Eggplant and shrimp with rice - one of my cousins favorite dish but I just like it because again, there's eggplant! You are supposed to pour fish sauce over the dish but for me it's a bit too salty if I do that. Overall also a good dish if you want to try something new. Vermicelli with eggrolls - pretty good! Fish sauce and eggrolls are everything for this dish and it did not disappoint. Mango sticky rice - we order two of these so each two people can share one plate. It was sooooo good! Please don't skip this during your meal. I was only able to eat one bite of it because I was so full but that one bite was everything. The sticky rice was so well made and it was still warm. The coconut sauce wasn't super sweet and complemented the dish. The mangoes were also perfect and fresh. Overall, so good. I don't think you can go wrong with anything on the menu. I would definitely come back here again. There is street parking around the area and it was easy for us to find parking around 6pm. Lots of people coming in and out. read more

If you are looking some authentic Asian Thai and Viet fusion delights then Bamboo Bistro is a great location. Fancy decor with a bar and plenty of seating. Their staff is super friendly. We ordered items to share and they brought us extra bowls and utensils for it. Was a real delight to see a nicely decorated Asian restaurant with reasonable pricing. I heard they had excellent desserts too. The table beside me was really raving about it so I'll have to come back and try that along with some coffee. read more

Came here with a friend and had such a great experience. Aside from the parking (there's no dedicated lot, so you'll need to park on the street or in the surrounding residential area), everything else was really enjoyable. We sat at the bar, which was actually a really nice setup cozy, inviting, and perfect for a casual dinner or drinks. The atmosphere was warm and stylish, and the restaurant itself is beautifully decorated with a relaxed but polished vibe. For food, we ordered the fried rice, which was so good flavorful, well-balanced, and clearly made with quality ingredients. We also tried the garlic noodles, fresh spring rolls, and a few shared plates, and everything was delicious. The menu has a great variety, and it's hard to go wrong. Overall, yummy food, great ambiance, and a lovely place to catch up with a friend. Definitely coming back just plan ahead for parking! read more

First time at this wonderful bistro, it came highly recommended by our friends who are frequent diners. The food is so flavorful and delicious and I must say you gotta love the service our waiter , Lam took such great care of us. I could not decide if I wanted to have the delicious smelling curries that kept coming to the different tables or the chicken pad Thai I chose the chicken pad Thai we also had the edamame dumplings which were divine as well as some of the shrimp wraps. Everything was so yummy. The garlic noodles were just a little bit shy on the garlic, but everything else was just delicious if you have an opportunity to have their lychee Jasmine tea it is perfection and not too sweet. Can't wait to come back with a group of friends. read more

After watching a Pop Warner football game, an early evening Saturday dinner place is difficult to find because this area is full of people and reservations is mandatory if you want to eat at a popular restaurant. We went ahead and chanced this popular eatery in CDM - Corona Del Mar. Luckily, we got there ahead of the crowd and were able to get a reservation. We waited for a good 30 minutes before we got seated. Before that though we were told to move to a "waiting area" - just a small space away from the front door. It is kind of small restaurant but oh, so busy and the food is outstanding. So, after we got seated, service was lightning fast and they want your order quick as well. The garlic noodles that I ordered were perfectly cooked and delicious! The giant prawns were overcooked and a bit dry but I forgave them for that because of how the garlic noodles were prepared. It was flavorful and not as garlicky like others. Eating out in CDM is always great. I've never had a bad meal anywhere here. One caveat about this place though. They don't do refills for soda or tea Refill - it's another charge. They can refill water for free when asked for it. So weird! Overall, the garlic noodles were a great draw and some of their menu items were intriguing and even interesting. If we come this way in the next few months, we might come back here. However, there are so many great restaurants here, we will probably try the others. read more

A plate of Traditional Vietnamese Egg Rolls with fresh Daikon & Mint wrapped up in crispy crunchy lettuce & dipped in savory fish sauce is, definitely, one of my husband's weaknesses! Shrimp Rolls are a fave for me & my mother couldn't get over the fresh coconut juice from the coconut! Their Sticky Rice desert topped with chilled Mango makes this an all time favorite place for sure! Find them in a Corner Pocket location on PCH in Corona Del Mar & look forward to their Wonderful Customer Service! Say Yes to Bamboo Bistro!!! read more

Amazing food always good Pad Thai (Beef) The beef Pad Thai was fantastic -- perfectly cooked noodles with tender, flavorful beef and a well-balanced sauce that hit the right notes of sweet, savory, and tangy. Not overly saucy or dry, just classic Pad Thai done right. Pad See Ew (Beef) The beef Pad See Ew was equally impressive. The wide noodles had a nice char, the beef was tender, and the savory soy-based sauce paired perfectly with the Chinese broccoli. Rich, comforting, and full of flavor without being greasy. read more

Newport Beach, Ca. My wife brought me here for my birthday. The experience was good. Nothing really to rave about or anything, just above the average somewhat. The ambiance was kind of a too close together crowded feel. They are currently in the process of doubling the space so this situation is probably going to go away. We didn't option for the outside table because of a construction project going on across the street that was operating at maximum volume. We liked everything served, the food tasted very good. I had the filet that came cut up into dice sized cubes soaking in a creamy sauce. The meat was tender with no fat or objectionable chewy gristle like animal product. My wife enjoyed her rolls and she is very picky about them. The service was prompt and efficient, very business like, not exactly welcoming or friendly. read more

We're actually on the waiting list that Cher first but the lead time was one hour to an hour and a half. He went to bamboo bistro and they told us it was a 445 minute wait. They saw we were tired of waiting in lines for the night and they made accommodations for us. They found a way to see us outside And we were so grateful. I'm also so glad that we went here instead of sugar fish because the food was amazing. The best pad Thai I ever had. read more

Let me start with the good: the food at Bamboo Bistro is genuinely excellent. Every dish that came to our table was flavorful, well-presented, and clearly made with care. I'd come back for the food alone. Unfortunately, the experience was overshadowed by an incident I can't overlook. Our waiter spilled an entire drink on me -- soaking my clothes -- and while the staff were apologetic, no one offered to comp my meal or even the drink itself. Understand that mistakes happen as i have done the same thing in the past as a server in college but surprised. A simple gesture like that would have gone a long way toward turning a frustrating moment into a forgettable one. read more

My friend, Mercy recommended this establishment yesterday, while she was in town. She seems to come here regularly. I ordered the garlic chicken, but was torn between that vs the au lac beef.
