    Duck Noodle Soup
    Alana K.

    My friend and I came here for dinner on a Saturday night. The menu is huge and everything looked delicious, so it was difficult to decide what to order. I finally settled on the duck noodle soup with vermicelli noodles. Is there anything more perfect than a big bowl of noodle soup in the fall or winter? No, no there is not. Just thinking about it makes me want to go back and order another bowl. Affordable price, cute interior, and great food. I'd definitely recommend!

    House Pad Thai
    Salma S.

    I had an enjoyable dinner at Bamboo Thai Restaurant. The Chive Dumplings were unexpectedly good; when they came out, I didn't know what to expect, but I was pleasantly surprised. My main course, the House Pad Thai, was delicious - it was very flavorful and fresh. The restaurant is decently priced and the menu has so many options to choose from - it took me so long to decide what to take because everything looked so good! The restaurant itself has such a cute vibe, and it feels very cozy. I would suggest this place for a yummy, well priced Thai meal!

    Pad Thai with tofu and extra vegetables
    Aya R.

    Item(s) ordered: Tofu Pad Thai (with extra veggies and no fish sauce) and Thai tea with boba Speed: arrived via DoorDash within 30 minutes Freshness: hella fresh Value: It makes sense to pay for something this good. The review: This experience ordering delivery from Bamboo Thai was more than I could ask for. The perfectly-fried tofu triangles mingled with rice noodles, crunch peanut topping, and crunchy stir-fried vegetables. The Thai tea was quite creamy but equally delicious, with perfectly cooked boba. Cannot comment on the ambiance because I ordered delivery, but the meal was heavenly. Also great portion size, and it tasted very good despite not having fish sauce, which is hard to find in the vegetarian Thai food sphere.

    Crab Rangoons

    Finding parking is tough. Thai tea was no good and the tapioca pearls inside were hard and wrinkly. Crab Rangoons were delish but rice was a little spicy for my liking. Also there is a hispanic man cooking the food so Im not sure how authentic this is.

    Pad See Ew Noodles -- huge tofu pieces!

    listen, we all want a go-to thai place that doesn't disappoint. i wanted bamboo thai to be mine, but i am not entirely convinced. first, some pros. bamboo thai is a gorgeous little building that's easily accessible by the green b line. their menu is huge with plenty of options and customization opportunities to find something for everyone in your party. i ordered for pickup and our food was ready exactly (and i mean EXACTLY) when we asked it for it to be. portions were good and filling. the taste of everything was solid! now for the areas for improvement. first, the crispy noodles were not crispy. they were a little soggy and paired with some yellowing broccoli which made a very interestingly textured meal. taste was good, but i was missing that crispness that i love in crispy noodles. i also ordered it with extra vegetables and i dont feel like that was what i received. perhaps because there is limited space with the take out container, maybe they could have put it to the side like other restaurants? i can't speak about if you ordered dine-in, but it is something to be aware of. next, the spring rolls (vegetarian style) were a little bare for the additional 7$ they were. if you're offering a vegetarian spring roll, perhaps there would have been tofu or another replacement for the shrimp. i am a believer of second chances and we did enjoy the flavors of everything. maybe the old vegetables and portioning was a fluke! personally, i would try other thai restaurants in the area before giving bamboo thai another chance for delivery. they have the potential for a 4/5 at least. i hope to update this review again with more thoughts on the second try (:

    Amazing food, i loved, definitely will try come back soon.

    Inside of resturant: super clean and plenty of seating. They have an amazing fish aquarium in the center and are quick to serve. Service: our server was very friendly, consistently making sure we had water and were satisfied with our meal. Food: Reasonably priced- you get a protein, rice and veggies for about $15 not half bad! I got the sesame beef with rice and veggies, for appetizer we ordered calamari which were crispy and a bit of a kick but delicious! Then as a desert highly recommend the fried banana its wrapped in like dumpling paper of sorts and drizzled in honey a perfectly not too sweet and light desert!

    Pad Thai

    i got pad thai with tofu and extra veg to-go and it was still hot by the time i got home, very good takeout food! also they made great tofu. i enjoyed id get again

    Pineapple Fried Rice with Tofu
    Marvin B.

    I was initially planning on going to La Catrina, which is next to it, but it was closed, so I ended up going here. l was a little disappointed at the quality of the food here, especially compared to other Thai places in the Boston/Cambridge area and due to its four star rating on Yelp. I ordered the pineapple fried rice with tofu made vegan. Overall, it was very bland and lacked seasoning. It definitely needed more sodium and curry flavoring. By the looks of the picture, you can also see that there wasn't that much tofu or pineapple, so the proportions to rice weren't right, and I ended up with a bunch of rice leftover. The service was good, though, and the food came relatively quickly. Because there's so many other amazing Thai places in the Boston/Cambridge area, I probably won't be returning.

    To me, whenever I think about Boston, all I know is its strong seafood presence. However being in…read morethe suburbs of Boston, it gave me the opportunity to try other cuisines, and I was excited to see this authentic Turkish restaurant not far from my hotel. Ironically, I found this place when I was looking up ice cream. They serve authentic Turkish ice cream, and it's been something I've been wanting to try. In addition to the ice cream, I ordered Manti (Turkish dumplings) and Uludag soda (which they say is a Turkish ginger ale). I loooooooooved the Manti. While the dumplings were filled with meat, the dish overall felt light since each dumpling is like the size of a quarter. The dumplings had a nice chew, and the sauces made the dish rich yet creamy. The Uludag soda was definitely much lighter than a ginger ale. Tasted like a light citrusy drink, and it's less sweet than American sodas. The ice cream had a nice pull and chew, although it didn't look as stretchy as Turkish ice creams I've seen. Nice amount of pistachio flavor throughout. I came on a weekday lunch, so there was ample seating inside. Ordering is done via a QR code on your table or on a tablet stand in the middle of the restaurant. Service was quick and friendly, making it a great experience overall.

    The food was delicious, authentic and fresh. We had several cold appetizers, manti (veg and beef),…read moredoner with bulgur, baklava and ice cream. Simple, but pleasant interior. Friendly and helpful staff. I rate 4.5, but will give 5 as no intermediate option. Improvements would mainly be timing of different courses delivered at table (was fast, but more time between mezzo and mains would be better). I believe that this small business has even greater potential.

    I've only been here twice and both times it was unsatisfactory. The second time was not just…read moreunsatisfactory but actually very bad. The first time, I submitted my order on the kiosk. While I was waiting for my food, one of the cooks (Latino gentleman I think, didn't get his name) called me over from across the room and asked me if I wanted greens in my bowl. I couldn't understand if he meant in addition to the quinoa that I ordered or instead of the quinoa so I just said ok. I was surprised later to find that my bowl did not have the quinoa that I ordered. Why would he ask if I want greens instead of just reading my order? I called to report the issue and dismissed it as a miscommunication. The second time, I submitted my order online. It was about a $45 order (two bowls). While waiting for my food, I asked one of the girls (Latino girl, kind of big with curly hair I think) if my order was ready. She said no and asked me if I wanted chicken in my bowl. I said that all of the information was already in the order that I submitted online and paid for. By the time I got home, I noticed the protein in one of the bowls was missing: teriyaki seitan. I went all the way back to the restaurant and asked to speak with the manager. She seemed to already know that the food was missing and asked, "chicken"? And she said that I could not speak to the manager. She offered me a free dessert but I declined. Again, I asked her to read my order instead of confirming with me what I wanted in my order. She said ok and handed me a container of food. On my way to the car, I checked the container and it was buffalo chicken, not seitan. I told her that it was seitan missing, not chicken, and she apologized. She handed me the seitan and I went home. When I got home to eat my bowl, I noticed not only was the seitan missing but the chicken was missing. So both bowls were missing protein. Fortunately, I still had the chicken she incorrectly handed me the first time. To recap, I paid $45 for two bowls. Both were missing the proteins (the most expensive and substantial part of the meal). I went back and she failed to fix my order and refused to put me in contact with the manager. Overall, there seems to be a major communication gap and maybe an English comprehension gap in the staff where they are unable to understand what's being ordered, causing major inconvenience and incorrectly making what is priced as a premium meal.
