Our favorite Colombian place. Staff is amazing , love them. And food is always on point !

What a shameful experience at Bamboo!!. To add insult to already high prices, Bamboo has started piling on unnecessary fees. I used to frequent this restaurant because the food was consistently good. While the food is still decent, the pricing practices have become unacceptable. I was charged a 3.5% "processing fee." When I asked what it was for, I was told it was for paying with a credit card. The problem? I had never even told them I was paying with a credit card at that point. Then I noticed they charged 8% sales tax. Since when is sales tax in Miami 8%? That immediately raised another red flag. To top it all off, when the payment screen came up, the suggested gratuity options went as high as 24%. By the time you add the inflated tax, the processing fee, and a tip, you're looking at paying well over 36% on top of your meal. Restaurants deserve to make a fair profit, but customers also deserve transparency and honest pricing. Hidden fees and excessive add-ons leave a bad taste, regardless of how good the food is. Unfortunately, Bamboo has lost a longtime customer. I hope management rethinks these practices before they drive away more loyal patrons. Very sad! Then they wonder why the restaurant is empty. read more

The food here tastes like homemade. I have tried a few things from the menu... the whole fish, the arroz con pollo, the bandeja paisa, the ajiaco.. everything is delicious. The service is amazing too. Very attentive and friendly. read more

Love this place for lunch. They have great specials for $11.99 where you get a lot of bang for your buck: a main dish with rice and plantains plus soup and salad. Everything is authentic and home made. My favorite is their Thursday special which is fish with coconut sauce. Their churrasco is cooked to perfection. Their arroz con leche is super delicious as well. The staff is always very friendly when I call them and when I pick up my food. The place itself is low-key and casual in a shopping plaza with free parking. Definitely recommend when you're in the area read more

Don't recommend, came here excited with a group of 8 and was turned down because of our puppy. He is a service dog but the owner does not carry the paper. Instead we went to Millys empanada read more

Don't come if you're African-American because waitress's was rude and they just point and laugh at you. When we were eating they took the sauce off the table . We looked around and every Hispanic person had the sauce on the table . They kept hovering over our table and not going to anyone else table . Then they would go behind the counter and giggle . My mom was trying to use there tablet to pay and the lady basically forced my mom to tip her. We felt uncomfortable as a family . I repeat do not go if you are African American. read more

Went here for Mother's Day and I can say they definitely make good Colombian food! They were super accommodating with a table of 6 and all of our orders and special request (no cheese, no milk, etc). I went bright and early and service was fast, was in and out in less than an hour. I enjoyed huevos revueltos con todo and an arepa (without cheese), I picked off some carne asada from someone and it was grilled perfectly! Also enjoyed the arepa de chocolo, which was nice and freshly made! My favorite part was my freshly made jugo de maracuya (passion fruit), which I requested be made with water instead of milk, so refreshing and tasty! I found this place to be inexpensive, everyone at the table had an entree/drink plus a couple extras and I paid around $100 for the six of us. read more

Ordene unas dos sopas para mi esposa que estaba enferma a las 5:20 pm me dijeron que en 15 minutos estaba listo, llegue al restaurante a las 5:50 pm me cobraron me hicieron sentar y esperar como 15 minutos más cuando me paro a preguntar donde estaba mi comida? Simplemente a las chicas que me cobraron y me cogieron la orden nunca la pasaron a la Cosina,simplemente así ya los costumer ya no importamos , no recomiendo este lugar no por la comida porque nunca pude probarla si no por lo poca atención a las órdenes y a la actitud de no importa read more

*this review is bias and will be corrected after further attendance* Where's the Mondongo? So I specifically came here for two reasons: It's close to home and I wanted Mondongo. Also, Monserate Express Kendall (the previous restaurant I went to) had just run out. But anyway... Close to home it was, so naturally, is there Mondongo? According to their menu they have Mondongo only on the weekends, the stars aligned, it's Saturday. It's the first question I ask before I even sit down at the restaurant "hay Mondongo?" I get a nod, they get a smile and I sit down. A menu is flashed my way and I wave back for that Mondongo. I order a 'Jugo de Maracuya en agua' or passion fruit juice for my gringos and begin my solo dining experience. Low and behold... the waitress turns around and utters the three words I heard from the previous restaurant I had just come from "we ran out". I was disappointed and the dissatisfaction in my face was evident as I ordered a CESAR SALAD. Despite slight disappointment, the service was everything. The passion fruit juice was absolutely delicious. The cesar salad, was a cesar salad (dry on the dressing, but delicious grilled chicken) and I must come back EARLIER for this now infamous Mondongo. Long story short, don't go to a Colombian restaurant after 8pm with hopes of finding Mondongo, because it's clearly incredibly slim. read more

Food was plenty and delicious. We ordered the traditional Bandeja Paisa Super; just cause it has two eggs and chorizo. I didn't like the chorizo that much. It was good, but not of my preference taste; it's the kind that it's a bit dry. The Beef soup was good, didn't bring avocado. Overall, delicious read more

Great pargo frito. Fried fish was great also the juice is really good. Small restaurant but great food

Bamboo de la 40 is the best. Awesome service great food. Highly recommend. Great prices.

Great food, very cozy place with clean fast service. Open on Sundays. Great experience with my family.. nice serving size read more

Bamboo Restaurant - Great food, open on Sundays. Personal service, clean and fast. Highly recommend them for Latin cuisine. - Latin American Near Me - Miami, Florida

Delicious Colombian food! You would not believe it from the outside since it is located in the corner of a plaza. It is fairly small inside. However, the food and service is amazing. The portions are large and can be shared. Overall, it was a great experience and my young children loved it too. Needless to say, my family will be returning customers. read more

The food is amazing! I come regularly for the baby churasco with rice and beans and it truly feels like home food. 10/10 recommend

I came about this place thru word of mouth but it definitely delivers. They have this amazing dessert which I always tell everyone to get called Capprichio, Im not sure if thats the correct spelling but ask for it if your looking for an amazing coconut dessert. It is the lightest dessert I have eaten and it tastes phenomenal. Its my main reason for going here. Being that this is also a Columbian restaurant I got the Super Bandeja Paisa, enough for 2 people! Very delicious and cooked to perfection. Definitely recommend those two items and for a dinner for two it is perfect. read more

My mom asked me to right a nice review of Bamboo restaurant. The service staff was polite and were able to anticipate all their needs before they asked for it. Food was spectacular and filled with flavor. I will accompany her here next time :) thank you Bamboo read more

Went the other day with my husband and daughter to try a new restaurant . The place was empty, we wanted to sit by the back and they said it was for a family of 5 which they didn't have any reservations or anyone else coming in. They sat us right In front of the door. Nobody came over to get our drink order and looking at the menu it's was extremely overpriced. Husband and I looked at each other and didn't feel welcomed. Got up and left after waiting 15 for someone to take our order. read more

Food was ok the colombia soup was great but the chicken steak was to cook and dry rice was good and plantain were very greasy read more

Definitely recommend this place ! Monica is great , super friendly & the food is AMAZING!!!!!!!!!

By far the best Colombian food in Miami, the best Bandeja Paísa, order the super and you get extras that are yummy, the avocado salad (turco)was delicious and plenty for all 4 of us. You will not go wrong with anything you order , los jugo de mora y el maracuya exquisito. read more

I have been coming to this place for the last two months! The food is amazing each week I order something different. It's located in a hole in the wall however once you walk in you realize the owner has big dreams! Very clean and comfy. Food is off the chain yummy! Their avocado salad is the best I've had. Now the service is the other part that keeps me coming back. These people cater to you. They truly make you feel special during your dining experience! A must try! read more

Solid Colombian grub in West Dade Whether you've come across this particular cuisine or grew up eating this stuff once you try this place you'll know it's pretty authentic. From warm welcome walking in to the traditional tile roof decor this place has the look and feel. We know you didn't just walk in here for just looks and feel but for some real good Colombian home cooking. Colombian home cooking is what you'll get! Delicious homestyle cuisine as if abuelita back in the kitchen whippin up all that good stuff. Some favorites are the bandeja paisa, mojarra frita,carne asada but for starters the sampler is a must. This place has one of the biggest TV screens I've seen in a small spot. Great for sporting events. Do pass by if you're in the area cause you won't be disappointed. =) read more

I've never had Colombian food and this was a pleasant surprise. My food was deliciously seasoned and cooked to perfection. I had the bistec a caballo. The meat was so tender and it was beautifully presented. The mariquitas were some of the best I have ever had and the white rice needed no alterations. My boyfriend had the super bandeja paisa and he said it was delicious as well. I recommend this place. Fast service and great food for an equally great price. Oh and it doesn't hurt that their house vino tinto was pretty perfect. read more

Bamboo Restaurant - Bistec a caballo - Latin American Near Me - Miami, Florida

Very disappointed. 18% tip was added to the bill. We were only 3 people. Plus no where on the menu dies it show that the 18% gratuity is automatic. The online menu and the actual menu are different. The pictures on the menu are not what is presented. The waitress verified that the $10 bucket was for any beer. The bill showed $19.99 a bucket of corona. Their EXCUSE was the waitress was new and she didn't know what she was talking about. NO excuses. Overpaid Never again read more

The best real Colombian food!! You will not be disappointed. The sancocho soup is the best in Miami!!!

Was just there, had the grilled chicken w/ 2 sides. Salad was very good, the baked potatoes side was literally three (3) slices of a potato, very small. The chicken was also a small portion, very very thin. Was not a lunch special meal so I expected at least good quantity. Service was good, place looks nice. For the price/portions I would probably not come back for lunch break since many other Colombian places have cheaper lunch specials with way way more food. read more

For many years, close to this restaurant, was another Colombian restaurant called "La Cabaña Paisa" which I remained pretty loyal to. It disappointedly, and suddenly, closed it's doors, and so while on the lookout for a new replacement to mend my broken heart, I decided to stop by this establishment. My husband and I ordered "la bandeja paisa" and it was satisfying, no complaints. The staff is also pleasant and the place is nicely decorated. On a second encounter I decided to try their "sancocho de costilla" and I was immediately hooked! Delicious. Needless to say, I've been back many times since and will continue to do so. read more

The bandeja paisa will bring you to Colombia, the seasoning will bring memories as if you were in Antioquia. The seafood cream was made in coconut milk... to die for!!! With some tostones and you'll feel as if you were in Barranquilla, listening to old and new vallenatos, definitely the food will bring nack good memories, and if you have never been in those places in Colombia this food will make you feel like you want to go read more

Poor service. Had to ask for a glass of water refill 3 times before the glass was filled. 20 minutes to get our mojitos. Medium well steaks completely bloody. Then an 18% tip automatically added to the bill... for a party of 5. Had to have it removed. Beans were bland, tostones dry. Just horrible experience overall read more

Good food and service. The place is always clean Good to watch soccer games if you request them. read more

Great food and good service! Except for one thing that I disliked very much. They automatically added a tip of 18% and then tried to trick you by adding another tip section in the final bill which is optional but If you aren't cautious they can trick you so be careful read more
