Reviews for Bamboo Garden Thai Cuisine in Chula Vista, CA

The food was good and above average. The service was fast and friendly. Many vegan choices- be sure to tell the server your... limitations. My woon sen noodles were good however a bit more oil than I prefer. Read more

I heard that the workers here are Chinese so not sure if it's owned by Thai people are not. Based on their pad Thai recipe it... was not authentic. I can see why people would still enjoy their food if they never grew up eating real Thai food... This is thefirst time I had it with thin pho noodles. The cuts of meats were not uniformly chopped up and was chewy. It looked and tastedlike it was precooked. The flavors were too tart and the noodles were soggy plus the sauce was watery. Noodles easily brokeapart. I asked for a level 6 spicy and it was not even a level 1. It even smelled like lemons. The flavor was okay but Iwouldn't call it pad Thai. The fried rice was also soggy and bland. This is more like Asian fusion food but they tried I guess. Read more

I am here at Bamboo Garden Thai Cuisine, enjoying lunch. Today I ordered A Tomkha Soup, it has coconut milk base soup with... mushrooms, galangal, cilantro, & lime juice. Choice of seafood combination. It is very deliciously tasty. I also ordered PadThai, it consists of stir-fried egg noodles in tamarind sauce with egg, green onions and bean sprouts, crushed peanuts. It is myfirst time tasting this meal courses & I am happily satisfied. Thank you Nick for taking my meal order you are very generousand humble. Thank you to all the staff in the kitchen as well for preparing the meals. Thank you so much & God Bless! Read more

Pros: nice service, really good egg roll appetizer with sauce Cons: glass goblets and paper plates and plastic forks? The... flavors aren't as developed as other Thai restaurants we frequent. It's sad, I'm not even looking forward to eating myleftovers, which is usually such a fun thing about eating Thai food. Another thing is there is no bathroom. Read more

Nice, clean, small restaurant in Chula Vista's Otay Ranch area. The woman behind the counter/waiting tables was friendly and... helpful. I had the spicy noodles and larb salad and both were good. However... I asked for an 8 out of 10 on the spicy scale andI felt it was more like a 4. I guess it's better to err that way than to have it too hot. Maybe next time I'll ask for a 10. Read more

Very pleasant place, close to the medical center, nice atmosphere, OK service. The food was passable 3/5. The spring rolls... were kind of bland and very loosely packed, the Pad Thai noodles appeared to be overcooked angle hair pasta swimming in a sicklysweet red sauce. The rest of the meal was otherwise OK. I likely would not go back to this resteraunt. Read more

I like the place, the food is great and the ambience is nice, the only thing is that sometimes there's a few flies flying around... and it just becomes a nuisance. If they had ceiling fans or fans in general, that would definitely get rid of the flies. Read more
