It's located on the left hand side coming from the base right before you get to the Mall (Hall). Their decor is very simple Asian themed, along with funny signs that say something along the lines of don't wear too much perfume/cologne and don't come in wearing pajamas. LOL! Their food is pretty good! Their sweet and sour chicken is yummy especially since they put sauce on the side instead of drowning the chicken in sauce. Their rice portions are small though. Ask your waitress for more! The service is fast but the waitresses can come off as rude. I'm not sure they notice they do. "Do you want to leave ME a tip?" read more

When you request no msg they say "OK.....No MSG".......and then when you eat it......it tastes like msg anyway. They are allways super busy as they only have 1 person (could be the owner) doing the phone orders, running the take out and waitressing tables. I think they need some help but my guess is they dont wanna pay anyone or they would have had that taken care of a long time ago. Not going back anytime soon after reading the reviews and trying the food along with the bad service...... read more

Very nice food and people! Try the spicy chicken! Mr. Wong is a nice guy! He told us the history of this town!i read more

Bamboo Garden - Korean Near Me - Alamogordo, New Mexico

Flavorless food. Probably the worse Chinese food I've ever had. It was just lacking in flavor. The chicken in the sesame chicken tasted like paper and the chicken in the chicken chow mein tasted like it was old? Like it had be fermented??? Also there was a chicken bone in my "egg roll" that looked more like a spring roll. We won't be eating there ever again. read more

Sorta disappointed with this one. Arrived when they told me to, & my food was sitting on a table nearby, but they took another 10 minutes to wait on me. Then, the order was wrong & had to be corrected. When we got home, we discovered missing rice for one meal, & no sauce for the dumplings. They wouldn't accept my Discover card, although there was nothing on their website to warn of that. I know that restaurants are struggling, but we won't return here. read more

Would give zero stars if I could. I totally meant to order take out at Asian Garden but unfortunately ended up here. I took three bites and decided my shrimp fried rice tasted like the onset of food poisoning. The shrimp tasted freezer burned and boiled. The rice was dry and bland. Cardboard boiled shrimp fried rice. This was the ultimate struggle meal at filet mignon prices. This goes down as the worst restaurant I've ever been to in Alamogordo. $25 in the trash. I'm still confused how anyone could dare serve that with a smile. read more

On the positive side, the family that works and runs the restaurant seem like really nice and warm people, so I'd like to try to give them business, but... This was the worst Chinese food I have ever tasted.. even worse than those janky msg buffets. Being that I was insanely hungry, I ordered a Kung Pao Chicken dinner with fried rice, Hot and Sour Soup, and 2 egg rolls. The cost: $19.80. I had to pay an extra dollar just to get some crunchy noodles for the soup. That's low. Soup: It literally tasted like they made it with pond water or sewage runoff. Ever driven through a place where there's open sewage in the streets, like Mexico.. it tasted the way that smells. No joke. Neither hot, nor sour. It was extremely hard to choke down, even with the 1$ premium crunchy noodles. Dinner: The veggies and chicken seemed fresh, yet the taste was very bland. I prefer bolder flavors when it comes to Oriental food, so this could be preference, but the sauce was runny and nearly flavorless for a dish that is supposed to be spicy. Meh. Fried Rice: It's just heated up rice with a few miniscule specks of egg with a little soy sauce mixed in. No veggies or chicken or really egg to speak of. Devoid of flavor. Egg Rolls: Small, but not bad. Crunchy. If you really want to support local business and are willing to pay premium for bland Chinese food then this is your place, but unless you're up for a science experiment, beware of the hot and sour soup. It's offensively gross. read more

Having dinner with friends after visiting the White Sands Monument. The Hunan Chicken was so delicious!! We have a group of six people. The service was excellent!! We tried spicy chicken, hunan Chicken, tofu vegetables soup, broccoli beef and they all tasted good!! We asked for the Chili oil, it's the authentic Chinese chili oil, taste so good mix with the rice. Although it is not the best Chinese food, but we love the owner Mr. Wong and his wife. The owner told us this historic background about White Sands Monument. read more

Ordered Chicken Chow Mein and General Tso's. Absolutely horrible. The noodles in the Chow Mein were soggy, the sauce had no flavor and 3 slivers of carrot and a ton of onions. General Tso's was as if they refried left over chicken. Rubbery and burnt tasting! When I called the restaurant and notified them. The rude lady said she would not refund my money, and would make us new batch. When we arrived back to the restaurant she said we ate half the food; not even close. So she would give me a gift certificate for $12.00. The whole meal was $30. Bad food, bad service!! read more

By far the worst Chinese food I've ever had. I used to eat there years ago when my husband was alive, this place has really gone downhill. I ordered General Tso Chicken.expecting chicken in a sauce with vegetables. And, sesame chicken. Both dishes were the same red pieces of overcooked flavorless chicken, the one that was supposed to be sesame chicken just had some sesame seeds sprinkled on top. Ordered beef chow main and got GRAY sliced of beef with the fattest overcooked noodles ever!!! This food is disgusting. Egg rolls are mini frozen spring rolls fried in oil from before Covid I think. I have never been so dissapointed. I can get better tastiing Chinese food from the frozen section at the grocery store!!! And, when I called to complain, no answer, at 4pm in the afternoon! "fried rice" is rice with soy sauce and NOTHING ELSE!!! I can't believe I spent $43 on this slop!!!! If I wasn't already in Tularosa I would go demand my money back!!! read more

Bamboo Garden - Beef chow mein. - Korean Near Me - Alamogordo, New Mexico

A rarity in Alamogordo - this is a non-buffet asian restaurant. I went to dinner with a couple of friends after work. The restaurant is located in a retail center on the north side of Alamogordo, so there isn't a lot of external decoration options. The inside was bright and clean. The menu was varied, and and included some Korean dishes. My friends and I each had some egg drop soup and split orders of pot-stickers and egg rolls. The soup was quite satisfying, and I probably could have been happy with that and a couple of orders of appetizers. The pot-stickers were good and the egg rolls were delicious. I ordered the Mongolian Beef, and my friends ordered the General Tso's Chicken and Kung Pao Chicken. Evidently, you can order dishes to be extra spicy. Be careful what you wish for. While the Mongolian Beef was good, and the Kung Pao was spicy, the extra spicy General Tso's made my eyes water after the first small bite. The friend who ordered it loves extra spicy, so he was happy. Service was quick, and friendly. The server wasn't always asking us to refresh our water, but we didn't feel neglected either. When I return, I'm going to order the bulgogi Food: 8/10 Service: 8/10 Facility: 8/10 Value: 8/10 read more

Between my friends and I we ordered 3 dishes for take-out and had a few bites of each dish before we threw it out. I've had Chinese food all over the US and even in China and although this bore a striking resemblence to Chinese food it was completely flavorless. read more

I am a big fan of Korean food, so when I was driving past, I had to try it out. This place is mostly Chinese food with some Korean. I had the bulgogi. Not what I was hoping for. Of course, I shouldnt have high expectations here. The food was ok, nothing spectacular. Decent size. Havent tried the Chinese here, but would prob recommend not bothering with the Korean. read more

Same nice greeting and seating. Tried the Double Cook Pork on Day 2. Small portioning and even less rice today - although the rice was not over steamed this time. Dish was tasty. Check to a little longer to come since more people were dining in today. On checkout I was asked if I had cash and upon replying no was referred to their small sign taped to the register that they require a $10 minimum for credit cards. She did make an exception for me since I don't carry cash. I'll be back tomorrow! read more

Bamboo Garden - the front desk of a restaurant - Korean Near Me - Alamogordo, New Mexico

See all

This place is terrible. I can not believe that these people are selling this nasty food. The chicken was frost bitten, it had no flavor and the rice was old. I don't understand how a restaurant in a town this small could be so terrible. The price is way too high, the food is nasty, and I would not recommend this place to anyone. The food in the mall was alot better then this place. read more

Good home cooked Chinese food. Reasonably priced lunch. A bowl of soup to welcome you. A favorite spot in Alamogordo.

Probably the worst Chinese food I've eaten. I went with my family to lunch. Mybkother ordered MooGooGaiPan, I ordered Chow Mein. For some reason both of our dishes had the exact same sauce. When we received our orders mine had an overwhelming burned scent and taste. The oil they used to fry my extremely soft wrong textured noodles was burnt and so my entire dish tasted burn. BUT that wasn't necessarily a bad thing considering there was literally zero flavor in the rest of the dish. The sauce used was white and made with cornstarch, carrots, cabbage and mushrooms. Since when have you ever heard of that sauce going on Chow Mein? The chicken tasted sour as if it had gone bad. There was ZERO garlic or onions to season the meal. My mother recieved the exact same sauce on her moo goo gai pan, and a side of WHITE rice that had been drizzled with soy sauce and was called fried rice. My husband had no complaints. When we left the restaurant my mother got sick in the parking lot and vomited. I felt nauseated for the remainder of the day. Zero stars. Do not recommend. read more

Had a miserable experience. Ordered a dish and was allergic and they brought back a replacement resembling catfood. Sent it back and owner came out and chastised me in front of other diners. Horrible customer service!! Will NEVER dine here again!! read more

Excellent sweet and sour pork. Won tons were great. Friendly and fast service. My wife and I have been here several times and each time the food was great. read more

If I could give it half star I would. This use to be one of my favorite places to get beef fried rice. I returned a year later only to get bland fried rice, little meat and watered down egg drop soup. My rice was cold (I just called it in within ten minutes) and she had the nerve to tell me that it's about time I picked up my food! I usually give second chances but this place doesn't deserve it. I will never eat there again read more

This was a surprisingly delicious asian restaurant. Usually, I steer clear of all asian restaurants because of the low quality of food but this was a really good restaurant. My family and I got the steamed fish, chow mein noodles, vegetable sides and szechuan chicken. The steamed fish was by far the best dish out of all four that we ordered and I highly recommend it. The prices are fair and I really enjoyed the complimentary egg drop soup that came with the meal. The owners were also very attentive and even came over to chat with us for a while when dinner service had died down. read more

I didn't expect much from a Chinese place in this town and I'm glad I had low expectations because the food was just ok. My husband got the General Tso chicken and it was pretty decent along with egg rolls. I got Garlic Chicken and it was more bamboo & mushrooms than chicken. The hot & sour soup was very bland, but was spicy. Since my husband got two big cups of it I'll have to doctor it up, so I can eat the rest. read more

I have eaten here 100s of times, the service is fast and friendly for the most part. Hunan beef is what i like to order, which is really well done. The soup is bad, they should give options other than egg drop. Prices are fair, though the food should come with an egg roll. BTW love the egg rolls, possible best in town. read more

I walked in and waited at the front. No one ever greeted me so I left. I have no idea how the food taste but for an almost empty restaurant during lunch hour on a weekday, the customer service is horrible. read more

Used to like this place better, but it seems their quality has deteroirated. Even the Egg Flower Soup was watery last time. The food was never great, though always fresh, and some dishes quite good for the price. Didn't like the Korean dish I tried, even though they are Korean. And the Chow mein is the worst ever, not even similar to the real thing. Don't even think about it! read more

"To each his own" I guess, but I have to disagree with Al D.'s review. The egg drop soup is not as good as Taiwan Kitchen but everything else is really wonderful. The Korean dishes are excellent and anything in garlic sauce is super! Low prices and excellent service!* read more

I love love love bamboo garden. Every time I'm in town, I have to stop by and have lunch there! I feel the Chinese food served there is probably the best I've had and absolutely love that there's a bit of Korean food on the menu. The owners themselves are so nice and you can tell they are out to please their customers. I've read the other reviews and some were complaining about the signs the owners put up about people not wearing to much perfume, which I actually am thankful for since I usually have allergy reactions with perfumes. Another sign saying something about not wearing pajamas, sorry, but I agree with them. It's their business, I feel like they can do what they want. All in all, I tell everyone I know to stop there and have lunch or dinner when in town! Love it and will keep going when I'm in town! read more

This is a good Chinese food place. However, compared to some of the places I'm used to back home in New York, it left a lot to be desired. Overall, the food was decent and good taste, just not my top pick for dinner. read more

11/19/2014 This USED to be our favorite place to go in Alamogordo for Chinese/Asian food. It's homey and the staff is friendly However, after today we won't be going back!! We ordered off the new menu from the lunch specials. I got chicken chow main and my husband got sweet & sour chicken. I was told that chow mien now comes without any crispy noodles served underneath. The chicken and veggies were completely tasteless. The veggies were a mix of carrots, celery, cabbage and mushrooms!! Never had chow mein with mushrooms! There were NO bean sprouts and no texture to this soggy dish. Soy sauce and salt couldn't save this meal. Perhaps they have a new chef (????) or new management but we were very disappointed. Not worth the drive. M read more

I like this place and I've gone twice. Their pot-stickers are the best I've had anywhere, and I like the free soup. I've gotten the cashew chicken both times and really enjoyed it. There is always enough to take home left overs, but they are very stingy on the rice (that's kind of weird). The set up is just tables in a room, but it gets full quickly for dinner near the weekend. The signs about clothing and perfume are off-putting. read more

We eat here often. Can become crowded at times. Food is good, and plenty on a plate. Recommend, sharing orders to get a great meal.

I was going to order chicken and broccoli and get it spicy but they suggested the Szechuan chicken instead. So I ordered the Szechuan chicken and it has absolutely no flavor and the fried rice was basically white rice. I will not be returning to this establishment. read more

Not the place to take someone to show Korean cuisine in New Mexico....the food they serve is average. Service made me feel like a bother when I asked for some traditional Korean cuisine. They knew of the dishes but seemed disappointed themselves when responding with not having dish after dish. And was totally referred to El Paso when I asked of any Kimchi in the area.... read more

Their Wanton Soup is the freshest and best tasting of any that I have ever had. Real talk - I ordered this dish 3 days in a row. They are also quite fast and the pricing is reasonable. read more

The food and service is always reliable and this I say is because the owners are always there. I have never eaten anything that was not good. The portions are always very nice, I always have enough for lunch leftovers the next day. read more

It was mediocre. Egg drop soup was good. General Tsos was good. Sweet & Sour and Beef with Broccoli were just kind of bland. Fried rice was... weird. It was like brown rice with maybe some soy sauce? Odd. read more

Very fresh delicious food. Service is excellent. The waitress is very courteous and friendly. I asked her for a spicy Thai chili since to my taste the hot oil is not hot enough, she brought it out and the chef came out to make sure it met my expectations he even brought a very spicy chili in the bottle so that I can taste. That's what I call excellent service! Prices are reasonable. And the atmosphere is calm and warming. I recommend this place and will be coming back. Ps. I am a very critical picky person. read more

American Chinese is always iffy, and can be a risk for taste and quality. While this location isn't amazing, it's pretty good. There is supposedly better in town, but I haven't braved any other places, since this is good enough. read more

Great food. Great people. Clean bathrooms and restaurant. Can see inside the kitchen and it looks nice and clean. The chef came out and checked to see if our meal was good. And it was. Free egg drop soup for appetizer. read more

Very clean restaurant. Staff members are friendly and accommodating. Great food...Kung Pao Chicken is my fave...spicy, but not at the expense of flavor. Generous portions, even at lunch I have to ask for a box! I go here for business lunches, and also for personal outings. One of the best, consistently tasty restaurants in Alamogordo! read more
