In Williamsville, this is a small tucked away restaurant in the Tops Plaza on Main St. Bamboo China is worth looking for among the little shops at the western end. It has new owners, new cooks since I was last here, pre-covid. But food is even better, going by the pork lo mein I had. Lunch special was $7.95 and included soup. It would also have included rice if I had wanted it. I didn't. I ate in, always an option, but most of their business is take out. I live about 11 miles away but have appointments in Williamsville a few times a year. Bamboo China is my reward for the drive. read more

The sweet-and-sour chicken was the worst I've ever had anywhere. It was overcooked and had too much batter. Seems like there's only one person working there. Place was very messy on the inside and looked dirty. He got the order wrong too. read more

My go to place for steamed shrimp with broccoli. Healthy and delicious! I go back regularly and this is my go to dish. The shrimp are huge in the dinner portion. read more

Great but it's gone downhill. I think there's only one employee left. They quote you 20 minutes and you get there and you wait for over an hour on top of that 20 minutes if not more. They are constantly now messing up orders and not quoting people even close to the right time an hour and a half. It's too long to wait for two order of Chinese food. read more

I feel very lucky because I'm only 10 minutes away from the best tasting Chinese food around. When the chef whose name is David makes your food it is always very flavorful and heaping out of the container. Service is always very fast and I have always been greeted with a smile and very friendly employees. For takeout service this is five stars all day long. read more

Usually our go-to Chinese food for the past 5 years. We ordered 3 dishes on Saturday night and all 3 were were lackluster. Chicken fried rice was boiled rice with a few pieces of chicken and some frozen carrots; did not appear to have been fried and had no flavor. The beef dish and the chicken dishes had minimal meat. We usually rave about the good food here but this was terrible. We need up throwing 1/2 of it out. read more

The service was fast and friendly. Most importantly, the food was exceptional. The pork fried rice is prepared in stages and involves frying in a wok heated over 1,000 degrees. That heat changes the entire flavor and character of the dish. The other meals were equally flavorful and quantities easily covered the next day's meal too. Prices are more than reasonable. Definitely going to return and try other entrees. read more

Me and My husband want there last week Friday and we got sick throwing up I got the sweet-and-sour chicken with two eggrolls and it was bad. I didn't even eat. It took bites and that was my husband. He was worse than I was. He finally and also it wasn't even what we ordered is what we ordered, but it didn't taste like it and I've also seen other reviews that there was a fly inside a sweet sour sauce. It was reall think It wasn't. Sweet-and-sour sauce bad experience. Never going back there. read more

Food always great, always on time and friendly, never have had any issues and the go to place for us for Chinese

I have been craving Chinese food for 2 days now. Mondays apparently are the wrong days to decide to order Chinese food. My main place I go to and another place that has good reviews are both closed Monday. All a girl wants is some fried deliciousness and it was a big production. I selected Bamboo China. I haven't been here in years. I ordered the lunch portion of the sweet and sour chicken. It came with soup. I decided to go with hot and sour. I also ordered an egg roll. The sweet and sour sauce was thicker than I'm used to and more on the sour side, which was fine. It was just a different flavor. The sweet and sour chicken was good and crispy. The rice was ok. It wasn't as flavorful as my preferred Chinese takeout place that is closed Mondays. The egg roll was good too. Would I come back here? Certainly on a Monday I would, but I am sticking with my main places that I enjoy. And hope I don't crave Chinese food on a Monday ever again. read more

Service was decent, said they would change my white rice into pork fried rice free of charge but my main dish, the Szechuan Beef does not take like a Szechuan Beef at all. No peppers at all, not spicy, taste very watered down and not flavorful. read more

Bamboo China Restaurant - Never seen Szechuan beef look like this. 從來沒有看過四川牛長這樣的。 - Chinese Near Me - Williamsville, New York

This place used to be good. The food is ridiculously bland - we spent $40 and it was awful. The staff was friendly but almost almost in an overcompensating way. When we arrived to pick up our order, there was one light on in the restaurant. It's almost like they came to open to cook our food and never turned on any of the other lights. Yuck - not great. read more

We recently moved, and decided to try our first pass at Chinese takeout in our new neighborhood. Bamboo China is nearby, and conveniently located next to Tops. So I went there to order at the counter, and zipped over to Tops for a few things while our food was made. The restaurant itself seemed clean enough, and typical of a somewhat dive'y but somewhat charming Chinese takeout place. The gentleman who greeted me when I walked in was sweet and friendly, as was the woman with him, I was getting the sense they are perhaps the married owners of the restaurant. I ordered four pretty standard Chinese takeout dishes: General Tso's, Chicken Lo Mein, Sweet & Sour Chicken and Chicken & Broccoli. The bill came to $48. That's a bit steep. It took less than 15 minutes to prepare everything, and it was boxed up nicely to bring home. The food itself was good, definitely not bad, but no standouts either. It was typical Chinese takeout food. I had the Chicken & Broccoli, which I always ask to have done in garlic sauce. It was spicier than usual. And it seemed like the container was heavy on the rice, and somewhat skimpy on the main dish. My husband enjoyed his General Tso's, but did have a couple odd crunchy bites that were off-putting. The kids had no complaints about the other dishes, but nothing that knocked socks off either. So our first experience at Bamboo China was alright. Nothing to completely turn us off from getting Bamboo China again from time to time, nothing that will have us running back in either. Plus the bill was was too high. There are other Chinese takeout options nearby that we will eventually try too, but will probably be back into Bamboo China as well, primarily because of the convenient location for us. read more

New owners. No longer like food. Vegetable lo mein is mostly onions. Crab rangoon has barely any filling and always left in the fryer too long. You would think if they were taking over someone else's business and keeping the same name they would keep the same sauces and recipes . read more

We decided to get take out and try this place. We ordered the egg drop soup, beef curry, pork fried rice, and the pad Thai chicken. Firstly, this is the first time I have seen Pad Thai at a Chinese restaurant. I was impressed with its flavor and the quality of the chicken which was used! Unlike most Chinese restaurants, the chicken was diced thin and marinated well. The pork fried rice was good too and had sprouts, carrots, and a lot of flavor. The beef curry was awful and packaged in one of those takeout boxes and a mess to open. The egg drop soup was the worst I've had, as it was more egg whites and corn starch and missing the egg yellow/yolk. The prices were very reasonable. I would definitely go back for the pork fried rice and the pad Thai! The pork fried rice is exceptionally better than the their Chinese's restaurants I have tried in the vicinity. read more

Was looking for cheap and cheerful Chinese food and came across this place right beside the Williamsville Tops Market. The menu is typical of what I've seen around here - the saltiness is not! I ordered a combination plate to go - pork and veggies with a choice of rice. When I got home, I opened the box to find a giant serving but I soon realized that it was mostly rice. The pork was tender enough but very salty in fact the sauce covering the pork and vegetables was extremely salty I could only eat a couple mouthfuls before trying to dilute it with the rice. A little one eggroll sat in a little wax bag with no sauce included. I may try this place another time but this first time was very disappointing given that it had a decent review on yelp and given that it was so close and convenient to my supermarket. read more

Perhaps the best Chinese place in the Williamsville/Cheektowaga area! Where else can you go and at .99 cents a scoop from their steam table set up with items such as Pork Fried Rice, Egg Rolls, Beef and Broccoli and a few other Chinese delights all at .99 a scoop at lunch time!!. They also offer your typical lunch specials for $5.50 which include your main item, pork fried rice and choice of soup. Delicious! Why I love this place so much, is they actually have chunks of egg in their fried rice! My egg roll melted in my mouth as it was so fresh! I have never been let down whenever I get food from them. The husband is super friendly and always greets everyone who comes in as he prepares the food. Just tasty! Ohh did I say I love this place! It is a bit hard to get to. It's tucked back in the Tops grocery store plaza at Main and Union. Well worth the visit if you're in the area though and have a hankering for Chinese! Their food is simply YUM! read more

I was sitting in the Wendy's drive thur and spotted this place. I haven't had Chinese food since I've moved from Brooklyn. I googled the number and called the place and placed an order. Within 10 minutes it was done. I ordered a small chicken fried rice and two egg rolls. The guy was very friendly and I was on my way. The food didn't have much flavor but it wasn't nasty tasting. I put soy and duck sauce on my food and it tasted better. read more

One of my ongoing challenges is how to rate walk in walk out Chinese restaurants. The menu's are nearly identical and the seating space is almost always amongst the most limited of any eateries that serve food. So, how do you know where to go? What is the right place for you or more importantly for me. I was desperate for some hot Won Ton Soup since a dental procedure limited what I was able to enjoy for lunch and this little location right next to the Tops grocery, which I also had to visit, was perfect. The cold rain was pouring down ... the skies looked foreboding and my mouth was still numb from the time spent in the chair of the best dentist anywhere. As I walked in the door there smiling and enjoying his lunch was a friend who is also one of Western New York's top doc's. If a highly rated physician finds this little corner of Chinese food a good location that gave me great hope. I observed as the staff waited on my friend ... I observed the presentation that was top notch and the scent hit my nose turning on all those yummy switches. Clearly this kitchen knows what they are doing ... they make top notch fast moving Chinese food. Now, this is not a date dinning location nor a place to BYOB your most expensive Chardonnay and I still think heading out the door food in hand is a better choice if you like space when you eat. However, they treat customers like family ... the food selection matches other Chinese outlets and is lovingly prepared. My soup was perfect ... a broth more favorable than most take out's preparations and the morsels inside the won tons were very tasty. I will be back when I can order more than just soup .... read more

Used to be great food but not for the price anymore. It is mostly all vegetable filler with little scraps of meat. Half of it was broccoli!

Delicious food. Freshly made and great prices! Highly recommend! The orange chicken is superb!

Bamboo China has been my go-to Chinese joint for a while. The owners are very nice, the prices good and it's close to my house. I do have to say that over the past few months the quality of the food has really gone down. It used to be a pretty good take out place. Lately the food is a C- rather than the previous solid B. I have to find a new place for Chinese take out now. I do hope they get it together. They're really nice folks. read more

Decent food. The 2 times I've ordered Hot & Sour soup it disappointed. In 2020 it had no flavor and wasn't even brown in color, but was whitish. Spring 2022 it had too much vinegar, but at least tasted like H&S soup. I do like their fortune cookie messages, though. read more

Still one of the best Chinese restaurants around! Where else can you get 2 lunches including soup and pork fried rice for $12? I had pork egg foo yong and my husband had sesame chicken. Both were yummy as was the egg drop soup. It may not be fancy but makes up for it in good food! read more

I have been to Bamboo China twice in the last few weeks. There have been some great changes to many of their menu items. The Fried Rice is spectacular. I would say as far as Fried Rice goes they now have the best in the area. I've recently had their Lo Mein , General Tso, Garlic Chicken, and Fried Dumplings. Everything was great. If you have not been to Bamboo China in a while, it's time to give them a try. Their prices are still very reasonable. read more

Bested only by Peking quick one. We ate lunch here sesame chicken and pork egg Foo young . Clean quick hot food. We will be regulars

This tiny little place is nothing to look at. It's in a strip plaza next to a Super-Cuts and a Tops Market. It has 4 tables, and one of them is covered with a television and old newspapers for customers to look at while they wait for their food. It's mostly a takeout place, I would guess. And, for lunch they have several items to choose from at $.99 a scoop. I would imagine the choices change frequently, but not being a Chinese buffet kind of gal, I opted to order off the menu and get my food freshly prepared. That freshly prepared food was mighty tasty.... as good as the food in pricier places. I had a combination plate. Not being the most adventurous sort, I opted for chicken chow mein and fried rice. And, you know what...it was DELICIOUS! Not too greasy...not too salty. The fried rice had nice little pieces of (not fatty) meat and eggs and veggies. The chow mein had wonderful WHITE meat chicken, crunchy veggies (even crunchy fresh broccoli...you don't usually see that in those fancy-schmancy Chinese restaurants). And, the portion size was HUGE! More than worth the $4.55. And, oh yeah..... that even included a free bowl of (very good) won ton soup.... with crunchy noodles on the side. I'll definitely be back! read more

Ordered the chicken pad Thai it was pink noodles and tasted disgusting ... I would not recommend order this from the menu

Pleasantly surprised! Made to order, fresh and hot. General Tso chicken and beef w/broccoli is very tasty. The fried rice is also great. Customer service also great!! Thanks for the tasty options :) read more

Darn good Chinese food. This was my first visit and chose it based on other Yelp reviews. I had General Tso and the hubs had Garlic Chicken and wanton soup. Both meals were very good. Ample sauce on the chicken and veggies were crisp. Fried rice was cooked perfectly (I hate when rice is crunchy and vegetables soggy). We will be back. read more

Ok, so.... For fast food Chinese, this place is great! You can order a combo plate for around $8 which comes with an egg roll and superb pork fried rice. So far I've tried the following from here: 1. General Tso's - Delicious 2. Wanton Soup - Good 3. Pork Fried Rice - Bomb 4. Garlic Chicken - Tasty 5. Orange Chicken - Great (This comes with little pieces of orange in it (-: ) 6. Spring Roll - Flavorful and crispy 7. Moo Shu Shrimp - Awesome Honestly, I eat a lot of Americanized Oriental food. From Chinese to Vietnamese and most everything in between. I don't think you're going to find a better deal in the Williamsville / Amherst area based on the quality vs price ratio. This place is off the chain! read more
