We had the honor of experiencing an omakase of a lifetime. We were astonished at the level of detail Chef Joey put into his artwork. Because that's what it truly was, artwork. He constantly plays with different flavors, textures, and combinations to ensure that he continuously expands what we believe sushi to be. Food is his passion, and you could feel how happy he is when he sees you enjoying his creations. Chef Joey is one of a kind, and he earnestly tries to put forth his best work with his customers in mind.

Ordered on internet this evening gave me a ready time of 5:07 pm
Arrived at5;13 pm they did not look at internet orders so it hadn't been prepared ,,,fair enough. No big deal.
they handed me my order at 5:42. Hey mistakes happen.
Took home. the crispy egg rolls were greasy and tough , could not cut through them . The potstickers were cold and doughy the wonton soup was good the tempura shrimp , almost ok.
This is my3rd time ordering from Oakdale. I was grateful they opened in Oakdale because Maplewood has been very good every time I visit.
To bad the only only thing these restaurants

Bambu is a pan-Asian spot in a stripmall in Oakdale. It labels all its vegetarian dishes (nearly all of which are vegan by default), but is too safe/generic in its recipes and didn't leave much of an impression. The Twin Cities is blessed with excellent Indian, Thai, Vietnamese and Chinese places; Bambu comes across as a tribute band playing the greatest hits. It's fine, but not the real thing.
The vegetable spring roll ($3) is utterly bland and forgettable, consisting of rice noodles stuffed inside a rice wrapper. get the Vietnamese crispy egg roll ($5 for two) instead, which is much

Safe to say I will never eat at this establishment again. Rude service. Rushed food/undercooked. Called to inform them of my experience and the lady in the kitchen. The (cook). Then starts yelling at me basically telling me I was lying. Long story short. Never again. 56$ worth of trash. Wish I had two more hands to give them 4 thumbs down.

We have not ordered from Bambu for years (not really sure why). Tom Yum for the spouse, lemongrass chicken for me, and orange chicken for the kids. This all went over incredibly well. I think the sticky rice was a little overdone, a bit gummy, but not a deal breaker for me. All our dishes tasted appropriate. Veggie egg rolls were delicious. The menu is pretty large so that gives me a little pause but I can't deny the quality of the food we had tonight. I think we'll be ordering from here again.

Awful experience ordering take out from Bambu after previously seeing it as a moderately high end eatery here in Haarlem, however when the order arrived things were missing and food was cold. Ordered duck and pancakes and came without hoisin sauce, and a "tikka masala" and naan. I can tell you that wasnt tikka masala by anyone's standards, more so a lot of chicken with a sad oily sauce, (if you can call it sauce)...
All in all a sad story in my experience. Not authentic asian food.

Found this little Gem when looking for a late night dinner (around 9 PM on a weekday)
The food was delicious, full of flavours/spices and presented beautifully.
Location is amazing on the Grote Market where you can enjoy the beauty of the city.
The best part though of our meal was the wonderful and friendly service from the staff and the owner. Kudos!!!

We wanted to support local businesses & opted to order from Bambu vs a chain. We order the orange chicken & Kung Pao chicken. Neither of us finished even half of our meal. The amount fish sauce used was really overwhelming in every bite. The Kung Pao didn't even have a hint of us spice & came swimming in the thinnest sauce that was the consistency of watered down soy sauce. Orange chicken had no orange flavor at all. We're glad to see they have good reviews & loyal customers, but this just didn't hit the mark for us.

Hungry for fresh spring rolls so I ventured to the newest location of Bambú in Oakdale. Its in a great place and it is so clean and pretty inside. There are 6 seats at the sushi bar and plenty of other seating in the well lit space. It was a quiet night-prob because of the snow but plenty of staff and they were all super friendly.
I ordered the regular fresh spring rolls that come with the house made peanut sauce. Main course was chicken Pho and hot tea. The biggest problem is everything is so delish you want to eat every last drop but the servings are plentiful!
This would be a great

Very good food - a bit slow. One table/ one meal at a time. Been to this location a couple times and they just don't seem to have enough help. I will go back, just plan in the time. I don't think they have the sushi bar finished yet? I do like their menu divided into Thai and Vietnamese.
FYI this is right next to Big thrill factory, the former Rainbow because it mapped on Google over to Hy-Vee but it's across 1from Hy-Vee
