Bambusa

A busy restaurant on a cold Tuesday night is a good sign! The deep fried duck and the slow cooked beef ribs are delicious!

Great food and service. We are regulars when we visit Canberra

Very enjoyable. Service was good. Restaurant was full but It was not too noisy.

Very good food. Good service. Nice ambiance. Good value. You

Took a while to get someone to take our order.

Lovely food and good, attentive service. Good ambience and we will be back.

Amazing food and wonderful staff! We love Bambusa! Thanks again

Bambusa is one of my favourite restaurant in Canberra - good food and good service

Excellent food, lots of choice. Restaurant has good vibe and lovely staff and in handy location. Will go back and get friends to go too.

Food was fresh and very tasty!! Would recommend. There was 6 o us and we all left feeling very happy. Even happy to split bills

This was my second time going to Bambusa and the experience wasn't great. We arrived on a Friday night before it got busy but waited for at least 30 minutes after ordering to get our entrees, waited for another 40 minutes before the first main started serving. We were starving and disappointed. In the meantime we saw many takeaways getting ordered and ready before anything came to our table. A table was getting priority services because one of the restaurant owners was sitting there. When we requested the waitress to check with the kitchen, she walked passed us many times but didn't come back with any responses. The table next to us also waited for too long that they went to get chips from somewhere else for the kids. Both of our table and their table had more than 8 people. I was surprised that none of the floor staff didn't think of checking with the kitchen. The same waitress also was supposed to refilled our tea but she walked away with the pot, put it at the counter and forgot about it. It was an embarrassing experience as we were there to celebrate Lunar New Year. The first time I went to Bambusa was very good and the food was amazing so we were very excited to go there again, but this time was very disappointing we would not go there again.

Amazing food and hospitality! Had an interstate visitor with us and they loved it too. We all had a great time so we’ll be back for sure!

We had booked a table for 5. The food was excellent and the service was very quick, efficient and unobtrusive. I can highly recommend this venue.

Good quality, traditional (western) Chinese food. Good service. Quick and tasty. Have been here 4-5 times over the last couple of years and is always consistently good.

Food, as always, was excellent but the A/C was not working too well on this hot day. Beef hot pot and steamed whole Barramundi were the highlights. We will be returning.

Great, fresh food and wonderful personal service from William our host and chef. Beautifully balanced meal of vegetables, crispy duck pancakes, chili beef, and Shantung chicken. Well be back many more times to introduce family and friends to this special restuarant.

Fantastic dumplings and Chinese dishes as always! Service is excellent and staff are friendly. Great atmosphere for dining. Will definitely keep coming back here for more!

I had salted fish, minced chicken and tofu hotpot which tasted nice, fragrant with ginger. The duck, mushroom and tofu soup and the hot and sour soup are ok. Service is good. Nice atmosphere. Convenient location in Manuka which is just across the road from the cinema and next to the famous Manuka shopping center. I am disappointed that I was charged $2 for chilli and soy sauce that I wanted to accompany my soup.

Good food (soup, dumplings and duck noodles) and good service. I dined on Sunday (early evening) and there were very few other customers. Will visit again.

Amazing Chinese food. Dumplings are flavourful. Probably one of the best in Canberra! Excellent service and friendly staff. Would definitely recommend people to try this place!

Excellent Chinese food. One of the best in Canberra! Service is great, staff are friendly and gives good advice on food selection and volume for big groups.

Last Thursday we had a small family gathering at Bambusa for dinner. It was our first visit to this restaurant and it turned out to be the perfect place for us. We were given a lovely quiet corner, the service was excellent, the food amazingly tasty and the portions extremely generous. We will certainly go back again.

Always welcoming. Attentive and brisk service. Great selection of iconic chinese/malay dishes. Excellent value for money. One of our fave go to places when we hanker for a quick asian bite

The restaurant was kid friendly - awe had 8 of them. The food was Great - they catered for gluten free without an issue. The service was , fantastic! The staff were friendly .

I always enjoy the food at Bambusa and the staff are very polite. My friends and I have been often and will certainly be see you all again. Eileen Bryan.

We are regular visitors to Bambusa and last night didn’t disappoint. The food was up to the standard we’ve come to expect and the service very friendly.

Fantastic atmosphere & great food. The food was so fresh & delicious. The staff were very attentive. We will definitely go back again very soon.

As usual great food and service. Only niggle was the door letting in a blast of cold air every time someone entered. duck pancakes and fried dumplings were the standout.

The food was absolutely delicious. I found that the price point was reasonable. It was really busy when we were there, so a bit slow, but service was still very good.

Always great food, always lovely service, AND good gluten free options! Try the salt and pepper prawns and squid together with the special fried rice... tasty.

Food is always good at Bambusa. William looked after us very well and the Service was good. Highly recommended. Will definitely go back again soon.

Food beautiful service great and affordable. We had the lemon chicken chilli beef and Shan Tung lamb. Bottle of wine and good friends how could you go wrong

We always have a great time at Bambusa, good service and great food at a reasonable price, what else can you ask for. I would recommend giving them a try.

Indifferent service. Poor communication about dishes. We asked what the neighbouring person was eating told it was roast duck noodles. When food came it had thin yellow noodles instead of the thick rice noodles our neighbour had. Explanation was that she had asked for gluten free. That was not explained when we ordered. Food was fairly tasteless. Disappointing as I had eaten really delicious food when invited to a meal there.

Bambusa has an interesting menu with some dishes we've not encountered anywhere else. Fluffy Duck is one example. Among or favourites are Salt and pepper squid and Shantung Lamb - both excellently done. Tables are well spaced and well sized so that it is a very comfortable restaurant in all respects.

The dumplings were awesome! Pan fried is the way we like them and Gran was converted as she has was not a fan before this evening.

The food was great as always, never disappointed in the food. Their pork buns are to die for!! The service was a bit slow but they were fairly busy so was to be expected.all in all it was a good night and will continue to go there

This is one of the best Chinese restaurants I've been to. Excellent service, fresh, tasty food and a tasteful fit-out including a private function room and outdoor seating. Can't fault it.

I love this restaurant - the service can be a little bit touch and go but the food is fantastic and I'll definitely keep coming back! If I lived closer this would also be my favourite take away option.

Pleasant and enthusiastic staff. We were well looked after staff always seemed to be there when required without being intrusive. Food was sensational and very price competitive.
