The beef bahn mi sandwich and crispy egg rolls are both amazing!! Can't wait to try other items on the menu!

Great food and good prompt service. It is worth the drive from Woodland Hills. Our friends and family in Simi always love to meet at Bamboo Cafe Rudy B read more

Bamboo cafe is a great spot to come to! The service is friendly, plenty options, it's always clean, and the food is always served promptly. The times I have come here is to try the pho and it never disappoints. What I like about the pho here is the noodles that are used and the different flavors and aromas you get from the broth itself. I got then S2 which is a spicy beef noodle (no spicy imo). The mint and herbs are very forward in this option, which I like. Next time I'll have to try another option to expand, but in the meantime you should come try yourself. read more

Bamboo cafe does not disappoint. The food is made so well here. They have many different Vietnamese dishes. We got the beef combination Pho, pork belly Bahn mi, sizzling skillet with bread, and a grilled beef kids meal. Everything they had was really good and the service was top notch. They make their bread fresh every day! Definitely one of the best Vietnamese restaurants I've been to in Ventura county. The restaurant is also very well kept and clean. We will definitely be back! read more

I placed an online order with a scheduled pickup time of 3:30 PM. When I arrived, there were only about two customers seated and eating, and around four employees just standing around--so it clearly wasn't busy. I went up to the register, gave my name, and mentioned I was there to pick up my order. The employee checked and said it was ready, but it obviously wasn't. It seemed like they hadn't even looked at their online orders until I arrived. I ended up waiting an additional 15 minutes for food that was supposed to be ready at pickup time. That's unacceptable service, especially when the staff wasn't occupied. I've been a long-time customer, and I immediately knew something was off when I didn't see my order on the counter like it usually is. This experience was disappointing, and I hope the manager addresses this with the staff because this level of service isn't okay. read more

Bamboo Cafe - They did not work on my order till I got there at 3:32pm and I waited 15 minutes for them to make it. Terrible service! - Vietnamese Near Me - Simi Valley, California

This is such a great place ! People need to give this location a chance I know there's a huge competitor across the street but I do believe this place is extremely comparable. You are served so quickly and they make sure your drinks and food are up to par. Get the brown sugar matcha with shrimp pho. You leave feeling good. read more

This is my second time at this café and the servers were fast. The food came out fast too. Last time I came I had a banh mi and it was pretty affordable and tasty. The small combination beef I ate was super flavorful. There was a plate of bean sprouts, Thai basil and lime, and jalapeño to add with the fur, which is a classic edition. I was ravenous after a late night study session and pho filled me back up. read more

Still love this place. Chicken Pho added veggies was amazing. Will definitely get it with the added veggies next time. Also tried their bahn mi. They have different options but I had the pork. It was amazing too. I had half and saved half for later. Thai milk tea was good but standard. Service was quick. They had many TVs all with food shows. read more

Decided to try a new Pho place and this place didn't disappoint! I really enjoyed everything here! I got the House Special Pho which came with Beef, Shrimp & Beef Balls! It was a huge bowl! The Egg Rolls were very good as well! They forgot to make my Mango Slushy with Crystal Boba but they apologized and made it right away and after taking a sip, it was very refreshing! Amazing service and clean restaurant! I definitely want to come back and try other things on the menu because everything tasted delicious! read more

One of my favorite Thai restaurants in the outskirts of the valley. Their pho and banh mi's are delicious and very affordable. I also had a blended matcha boba drink which was really good, the matcha tasted fresh and it was blended perfectly. The waiters were welcoming and the service was very prompt, we were extremely satisfied!!! read more

Bamboo Cafe has been renovated and it's really better than it was before. The typical iconic Vietnamese Pho is a little classier than ordinary nearby restaurants, their presentation seems a little better. The soup itself is about similar, I'd say a little tastier than usual, I dine at many other Vietnamese Pho restaurants and compare them often. The servers seem polite but can do better, actually. Perhaps, a little training in customer service would elevate their services, and compete with other similar restaurants in the area. They have improved their outside, COVID-19 extension tables with renewed tables and chairs and a covering towards the outside of the seating areas. The landscape inside seems similar from the last time although it's been upgraded. To me, this restaurant is a better Vietnamese diner than others in the Simi Area because it has a better dining landscape and more presentable than others. The dishes are typically the same from the previous menu but a little better curated than others. So, if you're feeling Pho or classic pork-choppy, Bamboo Cafe would certainly be a great place to enjoy the soupy and porky and more other delicate dishes during your lunches and dinners. Parking is abundant, Simi Valley is one of the most peaceful American cities for many years and still is. Simians are chatty people, friendly and welcoming, too. If passing by 118, you can take Sycamore straight toward the small strip malls or Siri can also guide you to stop directly. Enjoy! read more

Bamboo Cafe - Orderd S2.../ Shrimp Spring rolls - Vietnamese Near Me - Simi Valley, California

The atmosphere was very nice and got sat right away. The problem was the food was too dry and hard and pricey. They did have a good amount of options and drinks but I wouldn't come here again,maybe if family or friends wanted to come I would. Staff was a bit serious. But at least the service was fast. I think the prices are too high for the quality of the meat I will say its presentable read more

It's been a while since we've had Bamboo Cafe but on a cold rainy Saturday night it sounded like a good idea and it was! We did take out and the broth was still hot when we got home. I ordered the Filet Pho and my wife the chicken and the flavor was amazing and probably the best I've ever had. It was filling and a perfect choice for a night like tonight! read more

I love their food. Everything on their menu is the bomb. They're courteous, polite, and quick. The establishment is clean. They remodeled the place. It looks modern and they have an enclosed patio if you want to find al fresco!! read more

Oh man, this place is my new favorite here in Simi. The Bo Ne Skillet with their fresh bread (baked in house!) was perfect, as well as their Creme Brulee boba. The service was stellar as well. We had a large group of 15, and everything came out just about perfect considering how many different things we got! Our server, whose name I believe is Hao, was absolutely amazing- I do hope he's recognized for his contribution to the restaurant! He helped us out so much. The interior is also quite nice and natural, and there is some outdoor seating that I'd recommend during the cool evening. Definitely try this place out! read more

Service is great - they're fast, friendly and nice enough to recommend a drink based on my preferences. Food is on point! Everything tastes fresh and cooked perfectly. Ambiance is chill, casual, and they have outdoor patio area with a big tv. I went to lunch with a friend and we shared the pho3 without tripe and tendon, the filet mignon and rice, and an order of egg rolls. The drink menu is really nice- lots of variety. Our waiter recommended the lychee green tea and was right on with the light sweet fruity flavor I was looking for - recommend this if you're a tea fan. This place impressed me so I will be back and bring more people to try it out. read more

Came today with my daughter. First time back since the remodel. Sat outside at 10:30 am. We ordered filet pho for her and veggie pho for me. She also got an order of friend egg rolls. Food is still good, but prices sure went up. 56.00 including tip. We had to go inside to pay as no one ever checked on us after we got our food. Also, one of the employees was outside smoking which came right over to us. Don't want to smell cigarette smoke while eating. Oh well! read more

Been coming here a while since they remodeled and i love this place. Love their bun bo hue (s2). I personally think it's better than pho so 1, but pho so 1 is still really good. It comes with meatballs which is not traditional but I prefer that than the traditional pig feet. I love that they give so much meat in it too. Next favorite is the shrimp paste vermicelli bowl (v2). I like to sub the grilled beef for the eggrolls. I have been recently trying Hủ tiếu menu items such as the banh canh dac viet noodle soup (h2). It has great flavor, comes with shrimp, shrimp paste, and char siu pork. the noodles are similar to udon noodles but don't quite taste the same. I liked how different but simple the Nam Vang style rice noodle soup was (n2). simple broth flavor I added chili paste to give it a kick. Husband likes the Bo ne sizzling skillet (b1)! Overall, great place for Vietnamese food in simi! read more

This clean and bright restaurant has a great covered patio and spacious interior. The menu had a good variety of Vietnamese food and other speciality dishes like garlic noodle dishes. Service was fine. However they don't check on how you're doing and many customers had to continually call for take home bags or a check. Food is delivered and I had to walk up to the register when I was done. The rice vermicelli dish was good and a generous portion. They could give more sauce on the side for these large dishes. Their Pho was good but had a heavy clove flavor. Overall a great restaurant here that just need a couple minor adjustments. I would return to eat here. read more

Bamboo Cafe - Vermicelli with beef, egg roll and shrimp - Vietnamese Near Me - Simi Valley, California

Food was good as before. They still have the best egg rolls and the best soup for Pho. The remodeling made more dining space and they did not overcrowd with more tables, even restrooms were clean and spacious. This ratio of space to occupancy is much better than typical Asian restaurants, such as a similar Vietnamese restaurant down the block from them. Therefore choose this restaurant if spacing is important to you. There is a slight price premium for more space, but you can tell the customers who come knowing this. The dining experience is slightly more upscale. read more

First time eating Vietnamese food and it was excellent. Fast service, clean restaurant, cool outdoor patio, what more can you ask for?

This place in one word is amazing. I used to come here with my family as a young child and the great service never changed! I got a chicken pho bowl and they give you the traditional limes, mint, and sprouts and you can ask for any add ons to your particular taste. One of my all time favorite things about Bamboo Cafe is their Boba Milk Tea!! I got the taro flavor and it is by far the best milk tea I've ever had!! Highly recommend this lovely little cafe for all your pho and boba needs!! read more

It was lunch time, I had an intense taste for a Banh Mi with grilled beef, albeit at a new restaurant location. It was going to be a carry out. So I journeyed across the mountain to Simi Valley and Cochran Avenue to arrive at Bamboo Cafe. To my surprise, it is a branch of Saigon Brothers, a much closer destination for me. The menu, I was told was almost identical. Therefore, it was not a surprise that the Banh Mi, as expected, was very well assembled and prepared. All the textures and tastes were in place. The distinct flavor and taste were also present. Service was commendable. read more

Bamboo Cafe - Pho 8 - Vietnamese Near Me - Simi Valley, California

We came in Monday around 7 pm. It was crowded. The place looks nice but not clean. The table was super sticky. Service was quick but not very friendly. It's always like this. A crowded restaurant always have unpleasant service. The young, angry waitress looks annoying or unwilling to work, when I asked for more paper napkins, she came back with 1 napkins. Pho soups are adequately made, good amount of meat and rice noodle. The chicken with rice, chicken lack of taste. Not marinade long enuf, but still pretty good. Crispy skin is yummy Egg roll, wrapped with egg roll wrappers not "rice paper" just crispy and lack of chewiness. The experience is confusing. The food is good enough to make me comeback but the lack of service is putting a dent on my experience. Well hopefully when I go back, I get a friendlier waiter/waitress. read more

Came here 11/27/24 with friend...still feeling under the weather. Ordered shrimp Pho. Served with fresh basil & bean sprouts. So soothing and good and helped my poor little body to continue healing. Kind of nice to find a place serving broth that actually has taste & flavor. The only down side was that even though there were quite a few empty tables, I could see and feel the eyes of the staff anxious and coming over to our table. Seemed like staff was anxious to get rid of us. Won't come back for this reason. I like to feel welcomed not "eat and get out". read more
