Went there and had Mandarin chicken, egg fried rice, dynamite prawns, thai soup, beef chowmein. Food Portions were good sized in proportions, taste buds were highpalated in spices and bit more tangy than usually in chinese restaurants. More so garnered for Pakistani taste buds. Excellent food and quantity, clean enough, covid safety measures were good. Staff was excellent and knew the menu insideout. Recommend it highly because of moderate cost and good serving overall. The only yhing i didnt like it was the small space and limited people with lots of loud music that was too much.

Love the ambiance. Food was 4/5. Corn soup was good and the single serving is good for two people. Dynamite prawn and shezwan chicken was same old chinese taster no complaints there. Availed their 30% off on lunch deal so value for money was definitely 10/10. Total damage 3200 for 4 people

Visited here for the first time, with a rather large group, of senior citizens, the ambience was good, seating comfortable, and food was exquisite. We ordered from Chinese food, it was superb. Price is also not exuberant. So you can best economize and enjoy the food side by side. Recommend group strength 4 to 6 people for optimum gain. Please like if you found the write up useful. Thanks

Recently I visited Pakistan with my family and visited here. Though we have a prior booking but we waited more than 30 minutes, customer service was not good. However, food was yummy and delicious. We ordered Hot & Sour Soups (Red and White), 8 Treasure Soup, Chili Prawns, Chicken Chow Mein, Chicken Singaporean Noodle, Chicken Fried Rice, Egg Fried Rice etc and all food was good. Valet car parking is available.

This is a very good Chinese restaurant and is located in a peaceful area of Clifton where there are other premium restaurants. This is one of the premium chinese restaurants. There are many chinese dishes available. You are served with crackers as a start which is free of charge. We ordered the hot and sour white soup which was tasty and scrumptious. We then ordered beef chilli, chilli chicken with fried egg and chicken rice. The waiters are friendly and provide good service and the place is clean and tidy. The only negative point there was that the food was served a little later than usually served in other restaurants. Our food was served after we were almost waiting through out patience. The atmosphere was good, with music being played and the people attending here were of standard living. The parking was available outside the premises which is not owned by the restaurant. However free parking is available there and people can park their cars in front of the restaurant. During rush hours you will find it a bit difficult to park but you will get the parking nearby. All in all it was a good experience and I recommend to go if you are a chinese lover.

Got the chance to try hi-tea at Bambou E-street and i must say its worth every penny. I loved the variety of dishes that they had and each item tasted more delicious than the rest. I tried the Khaosey, Vege Lotus Noodles, Fried Rice, Canapes, Club Sandwiches, Gulab Jamun, Chaat, Crispy Prawn balls and prawn toast.The prawn toast, Khaosey, Chinese items and Lotus noodles were the best dishes I tried. Also for desserts they had Panna-Cottas and strawberry cheesecake which was so delicious. The guava lemonade for drinks was extremely refreshing as well. All this for Rs. 890+tax is a great deal. One thing that they should do is spread out their hi tea items as some of the dishes were kept in the back and were missed out on because It wasnt reachable but otherwise everything was great. The hi tea is available on Wednesdays and Thursdays so everyone should definitely check it out.

Went for lunch the ambience is nice and cosy the seats are also comfortable. We were served fish crackers straight away which was fresh and crunchy. The chicken corn soup was good and wonton noodle soup surprisingly was also a good try. We ordered their special fried rice with all three meats with Kung Pao Chicken which was really tasty. For drinks I went for sparkling lime cooler and my wife had her typical mint lemonade. The mint lemonade was okay but the lime cooler was not it had sort of sour flavour (which might be how it is made) although i did not like it. Over all the food was very good would definitely recommend it and would go their again.

Came here as I had been to Ginsoy and heard this is a sister chain. Ginsoy has great food and service so I assumed this would be similar, if not the same.We sat for 35 minutes to get a table, which would be fine as we went without a reservation but more importantly we were never communicated how long the wait would be.Once inside the restaurant besides being noisy (which they cant control to their credit) had such loud background music we gave up on any kind of conversation.The food wasnt great. The dynamite chicken wings are bland, and the Schezuan beef hardly had any flavour. The only good thing that manages to get this rating beyond one star is the dynamite prawns which were quite good.Our drinks were also forgotten and had to be promoted 25 minutes after ordering to get those.Definitely will not visit again.

I hv no idea y ppl hv given such bad reviews to this awesome Hi Tea... It was my first visit here, n apart from the quality n variety of food which included fries, mini pizza, mini burgers, prawn balls, fish tempura, amazing eclairs n a lot lot more... The service was great too... Just my coffee took more than 20 mins to be served, but it was worth the wait as u can see from the pic.Keep up the good work n the good price... Considering everyone else is over charging... U guys r going great... Yes everyone, the damages are 890 plus tax, thats approx 1100 per head!

An excellent place for Hi Tea. Celebrated my daughters birthday. Yummilicious buffet and a very sumptuous menu. Deserts were amazing and drinks were so freshening. Its a treat to be at Bam-Bou E Steet. Staff was too courteous and forthcoming to be at service. Keep it up Bam-Bou.

Review №48

Such a pathetic service I had ever before. This is one of the worst restaurant in delivering food. They deliver 50% of the order and rest may be taken away by their staff. They are just liars and keep on trailing you on 5 mins time which gets prolonged to 2.5 hours at the end. I think I have learned from this experience to avoid such Restaurants in future where customer has to suffer for its order and not a single response from their end. Highly unprofessional and such price where you have all options available. It happened not just once but consecutive two days in a row. Today 28th May and 27th Yesterday.

I have been a regular visitor to the SMCHS branch of Bambou but since this clifton one is near to my home, I decided to try it out.The place looked huge from the outside, but its small from the inside with just a single floor available for seating.The initial welcome from them was quite cold, which can be a turn off, but when we got seated, the management was courteous.The food was good, their quantity is really really good, but the biggest letdown was their Dynamite prawns. Absolutely pathetic. The meat was sour and damp, there was no crispiness and the batter seemed raw and too salty. Hands down, the worst dynamite prawns Ive ever had.Apart from this, we ordered Kung Pao chicken and Chop suey, which were tasted incredible. The taste is heavily Eastern and authentic so Kudos to Bambou for getting this right.The bill for 3 persons was around PKR 4800 so if you plan to go there, know that its an expensive place with a per head cost of around 1500-1800 PKR

The food was good, however the service was horrible. Lets see, after asking four different people, I had to go to the counter asking for someone to take the order, the order got mixed up. No one bothered to ask about anything during the meal. And water was served at the end of the meal after 3rd request. All of this definitely is not cover d by good food. I mean we didnt go to a dhaba just for good food. Its supposed to be a high Street restaurant.In food, we ordered their signature hot and sour soup, which was good. The crispy shanghai beef and dragon chicken were also good, though tasted similar to each other.
