Bamboo Restaurant and Takeaway in Edinburgh, City of

The menu is out of date, up to date prices are not displayed. There is no takeaway menu. Whilst the food is reasonable there is need for an alternative within South Queensferry. Here is hoping.

Delicious take away food at a very decent price Staff pleasant and helpful

Great place for takeaway. Food is delicious and staff are polite. They are well organised. The inevitable and worthwhile wait when busy shows their popularity

Our only place for Chinese food, Wouldn't use any other, Food and staff fantastic.

Woman on the phone extremely un pleasant. Didn't listen food was wrong

Amazing food. Best Chinese I know of near Fife

Hit and miss. Last time delicious but this time not very nice and was over charged

First time here, food amazing, great atmosphere, we will definitely be back. Thank you for your hospitality.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Ordered chicken chow mein . It was tasteless and greasy

Been getting takeaways monthly for last three years. Only once was the food slightly below the constant high par - guess main chef was off that day. Recently enjoyed a sit in meal here too and look forward to doing so again soon. Staff nice and friendly.

Ever since I discovered this place through a friend I have been coming here once a week because that food is just amazing and for a very reasonal price.

Terrible, ordered a take away, arrived over an hour late, food ruined

Fantastic food , both eat in and takeaway. Service was a bit slow but they apologised for it and took a main off our bill.

Superb food great friendly staff and good prices 👍

fantastic food and service for sit in and take away just perfect it has always been my favourite chinese restuarant

Visited here while on holiday in the area. Service was wonderful and food was beautiful, the best Chinese I've ever had. Would highly recommend!

I just have take outs from here no bad I had a look around there alot of take out deliveries

Awful everything, they charge you whatever they want. Prices on leaflet different for what that lady charged me. Rubbish restaurant and expensive for that watery sauces food.

Amazing Chinese , fantastic food. A Large group of us visited here last week and the selection and quality of each dish was fantastic. Great value for money and friendly service . Would recommend

Very good take away. Nice food and reasonably priced.

just had delivered tonight the most amazing meal so fresh so hot and what a great portion thankyou so much

We've ordered from here many times and never been disappointed. Always quick delivery, hot food and fresh ingredients. Looking forward to our next meal, many thanks.

Consistently great food at a reasonable prices.

Have had a few times now, consistently good food, at good prices. Singapore style vermicelli is a favourite.

I ordered a take away on Monday I ordered bbq spare ribs and also beef chow mien I was so disappointed with the food I binned it all, the bbq sauce was lumpy and light in colour, and my chow mien had lots of veg in it carrots corn some other veg like turnip yuc with spongy beef no thanks I just binned it all never again it’s put me off ordering any take away at this time a waste of money

Really friendly waitress. Reasonable value.

Good food, excellent service and reasonable prices.

Tried a few different dishes and they are all very good definitely recommend a visit

Best Indian food I have ever had

Always consistently good - both dining in or takeaway. Staff friendly and efficient.

This was one of our favourite takeaways. Got a takeaway recently. Sadly the standard of food was not as good as it used to be. Maybe it was just an off day, hopefully that’s all it was. So disappointed!

Absolutely delicious! Ordered the chicken curry, egg fried rice and crispy chicken. Staff polite, friendly and only waited 15 minutes for takeaway. Could smell their delicious cooking wafting up the main high street!😋

Always amazing service, food is delicious and staff are always friendly and helpful

Lovely special curry and egg fried rice

Great selection of food and wine. Attentive staff. So glad to be back in the restaurant.

Great food, good selection and friendly staff.

We ordered our food at peak time on Boxing Day and it arrived within 15 mins. Such great, friendly service over the phone and from those delivering. Food was hot, crispy and delicious. Popular for a reason!

Once again excellent food and service. Good value.

Went in ordered a takeaway and was served and on my way inside 15 minutes . Excellent meal recommend the Bamboo to anyone . They also do sit in at the moment just Fri. Sat. Sun

Lovely restaurant with a pleasant atmosphere, a lovely selection of dishes, all of which we had were delicious, and some absolutely brilliant service. Can't recommend enough.

Quick prep times and the staff were very nice when I went to pick up the order. Chips had seen better days but everything else was great. I enjoyed my chicken dish and the muscles. Cheers. Also they give you a big bag of free prawn crackers with your order if it's over 20 quid.

Excellent chinese restaurant near the Scotmid. Unfortunatley only doing take aways due to Covid. Still same quality food.

We were charged 10% more than price shown on Web menu. No warning. Generous portions, especially of lemon chicken. Dishes pretty sweet, though.

Had home delivery, which was very nice, just the job on a dull/wet night.

Excellent food. Lovely staff. Just check the final price before paying. Menus are not up to date... 😉

The service was great and friendly. The food was delicious and good sized portions. You will not leave hungry. I had the chicken in orange sauce and fried rice. It was moist and just enough tangy orange sauce.

We have been going here for around 18 months now and at first we loved it. Food was great and the service was good but never friendly from the older lady. Then an older gentleman arrived and started serving however he is rude and never friendly to anyone. Every thing to him is a problem. The food is not as good as it once was and the service is definitely lacking. The restaurant is always cold and could do with a freshen up. It’s a shame as it used to be so good. Oh and the beer is always like warm.

Me alegré de que llegáramos a las 7 p. M., Ya que logramos obtener una mesa sin reserva, algo que no habría sucedido si hubiéramos llegado un poco más tarde, y el hecho de que el restaurante estaba lleno en un jueves frío y húmedo por la noche habla bien de eso.El personal de servicio estaba ocupado y, aunque nunca sentimos que nos esperaban, sospecho que otro miembro del personal habría hecho que la atmósfera fuera un poco más relajada, particularmente si el tráfico para llevar se llenara. Sin embargo, fueron educados y serviciales.La comida y la presentación fueron excelentes, con nosotros probando costillas con 2 salsas diferentes seguidas por el pato Szechuan y el estilo cantonés de cerdo agridulce. Todos fueron servidos con vegetales bien decorados en un plato caliente con arroz y paños húmedos, y realmente disfrutamos todo lo que comimos.Este restaurante hace cosas que son un poco mejores que un restaurante chino estándar. Esto lo convierte en una experiencia gastronómica especial, y este lugar es una pequeña joya en South Queensferry.

Lo que sucedió solía ser un buen restaurante con comida muy sabrosa y un servicio amable. Creo que esto ha sido comprado por nuevos propietarios y la diferencia se nota. Visité una comida sentada un par de veces en los últimos seis meses y el servicio que notamos cada vez fue muy desagradable y grosero: nuestro servidor, un hombre mayor, hizo un comentario sobre, oh, ha terminado, fue rápido, lo cual fue muy rápido. grosero. Nuestra última visita se volvió a encontrar sin simpatía, sin charlas educadas, solo había recibido un pedido rápido y suave, y luego esperamos años para que nuestros platos principales fueran tan duros, la carne en nuestros platos se sentía dura e insípida y, para ser sinceros, más verduras que carne. El arroz frito era suave y una porción para dos era pequeña: la comida no vale la penaAntes de que la comida fuera tan sabrosa y con una buena relación calidad-precioNo hay servicio para bebidas adicionales y cuando recibimos nuestra factura ninguna de las mentas habituales o galletas de la fortuna que los antiguos propietarios proporcionaronEs una pena, ya que fue una pequeña joya de lugar, pero la comida y el horrible servicio desagradable realmente han decepcionado a este lugar

Great service, lovely staff, great food and they cater for coeliacs

Take away food very good and we're fussy. Food isn't bland like other local places and good quality.

A very tasty dinner, we bought 4 king prawn choi mein and 2 special satay (king prawn, chicken, Beef and char siu). Big portions, very kind and welcoming staff 😊. We would like to try the other dishes!

Lovely place and the food is very good.

Antes de comer aquí, no estábamos seguros debido a las críticas mixtas. Nos fuimos con pensamientos encontrados también. El servicio fue rápido y amable, el plato mixto fue agradable, ella tenía chow mein de pollo pero no la servían como estaba acostumbrada. Tuve pollo agridulce al estilo cantonés. El pollo estaba delicioso pero le faltaba salsa y el arroz no era mi favorito. Parecía un poco caro para lo que obtuvimos. Sin embargo, era abundante y ninguno de nosotros pudimos terminar nuestras porciones.

The food here was first class I cant wait to get back .

It was great place, menu choice catering all needs. Plenty of space and staff was pleasant. Food was fresh Tasting authentic chinese cooking.

Nice food. Good service. Easy parking. (There is disabled parking available right next door in the carpark outside Scotmid.) The restaurant is wheelchair accessible, with no entrance steps.

La comida era bastante buena, pero mal servicio. Solo la cerveza Tennent en el draft. Si vas a tener una cerveza de barril, ¿realmente tiene que ser esa basura? La iluminación es dura, con muy poca atmósfera. Música verdaderamente terrible, la peor de los años ochenta. Y arregla esa señal. Por la noche dice Bamoo.

Authentic Cantonese food, I am from Hong Kong. Brilliant!!

Excellent restaurant. Will certainly revisit.

Tried several places and this is the best Chinese restaurant & take away in the area by far.

We have just had a takeaway from here. It was absolutely awful. We both had crispy chilli chicken. The chicken tasted and looked like it was cooked on Monday and reheated every day until Saturday.

After deciding where to eat one of us said "You should talk with a friend today", some responded with "he who makes mistakes never did anything worthy" so we went, thoroughly enjoyed it and made it to the end of the line. Turns out there's a good chance if a romantic encounter soon. Five star, nothing is gonna change my love for this restaurant

Great food and service , would highly recommend the Bamboo

Both of us really enjoyed the food. The sizzling beef with garlic, peppers and blck ben suace was amazing. The meat was so tender. Partner had the same dish but vegan version. There were several vegan options available. Great potion sizes, big :). Fried rice was yum. Would recommend this place.

La peor comida para siempre. Huevo de arroz frito aletargado y sin sabor. Fideos secos. Crispy Chilly Chicken soggy no es una pieza crujiente y tiene una salsa aceitosa y tiene un sabor agridulce. El pollo agridulce tenía un sabor horrible y la mezcla empapada. Si viviera más cerca les devolvería la comida. Sin embargo, ahora está en la papelera.

La primera vez que usamos este producto en South Queensferry, fue de primera clase. Todo desde el pedido hasta la entrega fue genial. El personal es muy educado y realista sobre la escala de tiempo. La comida era excelente, el pollo crujiente y platos de pato excelente. Recomiendo este restaurante altamente

Lucky dip restaurant. 5 starts ! The food we got was much better then the food we actually ordered !

No recuerdo una comida china mejor. Honestamente, fue absolutamente impresionante. Desde la sopa caliente y amarga, hasta el pato crujiente y el chow mein, no me puedo quejar. ¡2 días después y volvimos a tener ganas! : D Cometimos el error, ya que Bamboo estaba cerrado, para visitar otro establecimiento. ¡Ojalá hubiéramos esperado! No creo que nada se acerque ahora. ¡Absolutamente delicioso!

Had takeaway tonight from this place. Awful. More fat than meat (supposed to be Char Sui pork) and generally the dish was significantly over salted. Couldn’t eat it. Won’t order again.

Así que esta noche decidimos tener una deliciosa comida antes de terminar nuestro último viaje antes de regresar a casa. Estábamos pasando y pensamos que esto se veía genial. Entramos y fuimos recibidos por cálidas sonrisas. Nos pusieron servilletas y ordenamos comida. Después de comer nuestra comida rápida pero excelente, todo parecía ir cuesta abajo. Un grupo de amigos, y una familia que ya estaba allí, ordenaron, comieron y pagaron sus cuentas antes de que pudiéramos pedirle a alguien lo nuestro. Nos siguieron evitando, cada vez que intentábamos llamar su atención. Luego el lugar se llenó, más personas obtuvieron su comida y finalmente fueron a buscar la factura. El servicio era un desastre, ya que queríamos dividir la cuenta, y habríamos sabido antes si se hubieran escapado antes de que pudiéramos preguntar. Luego nos preguntó qué habíamos pedido, y luego la máquina de tarjetas no funcionaba. Obviamente se estaban poniendo nerviosos, pero terminamos saliendo casi 45 minutos después de haber terminado. No se lo recomendaré a nadie.

El personal del restaurante era muy limpio y amigable, fabuloso y muy fresco, tenía paquetes de pato y pollo satay para comenzar simplemente fabuloso, luego carne de res con jengibre, pimientos verdes y salsa negra y pollo. El estilo cantonés fue agradable, pero se encontró que un pequeño hueso en el pollo poco costo era bueno con bebidas irá atrás

Absolutely the most disgusting takeaway ever had. I've eaten here before and had takeaway's before and never had a problem. Tonight my partner asked for a chicken curry and I have no idea what he got but certainly not curry, he had to bin it as looked and tasted awful. I asked for chef's Special Crispy Shredded Chicken in a Sweet & Chilli Sauce . It was swimming in something I can only describe as dirty oil and tasted like it was cooked in an old fryer, the small amount I had left a film of grease in my mouth and mine too went in the bin. Both meals and delivery were £16.40. Money down the drain and left hungry.

We regularly use bamboo for a Saturday night takeaway. It’s worth the trip across the bridge as it’s head and shoulders above our locals in the nearby town.

This restaurant is just up off the main st. The menu is huge with something for everyone The portions are large and the service efficient Prices are very reasonable and would return

Tuve cóctel de gambas para empezar, sin embargo no fue el mejor cóctel de gambas que he tenido. Probablemente más que ver con el tipo de salsa más que cualquier otra cosa, ya que hay muchas versiones que pueden ser realizados. Para el plato principal que tenía el crujiente pollo frito con arroz frito, que viene con una salsa de chili dulce. Este plato era excelente y estaba muy bien presentado. Inusualmente para mí, yo diría que el ayudando era demasiado grande. Yo podría haber hecho con un poco menos en el plato. Recomiendo la cerveza Tsingtao. En general, una buena comida y lo recomiendo para otras personas a probarlo. El personal era educado y atendió a mis necesidades sin dudarlo. Yo no lo podía tener, ya que tenía otro evento para asistir y apresurar un poco.

Visited here on a Saturday evening for a nice meal. The food was very good but it was a very rushed affair. In and out in 40 minutes for two courses and drinks. The food was excellent but service no so. Plates banged on table by short sharp service.waitress rushing everything. Even saw her grab a napkin from a child’s head at another table.

Brilliant restaurant great food and the staff are so friendly and welcoming highly recommended different worth a visit

Easily accessible restaurant with carpark nearby. Large comprehensive menu, friendly staff, very clean. The mixed starter platter was excellent. So were the sizzling dishes. Would definitely go back again.

Whether we've sat in or taken away we have never been disappointed. Food is always amazing and staff are forever wanting to help. I understand that others may have had a bad experience, but I truly believe it's how the staff handle the situation that proves they may be just having an off day. If they couldn't care and charged you full whack, then they do this daily. When they apologise and refund it clearly isn't a normal day, after all how could you reduce bills and still be in business.

Bamboo Chinese restaurant is situated next to the Scotmid supermarket ( plenty of parking space ) in South Queensferry. Wishing you to have a meal in, or take it away, you will not be disappointed. The food is fresh, excellent cooked, tasty, well presented and in big portions. The restaurant is nicely decorated, clean and the service very good and attentive. We were a party of six, we ordered starters and mains, all dishes arrived on time served with a smile. Full stocked bar and a good wine list, we had a great meal. Highly recommented.

From start to finish I loved this Chinese. The service was extremely friendly and welcoming and the food was fantastic.

It was an absolute surprises for my wife and I after a long day in South Queen Ferry. The resturant staffs were very helpful and the food arrived very quickly. The size of the food were so big that we almost couldn't finish them. The food were just brilliant and well presented. The staff were always in sight and they always helpful. We will definitely be back if we go back to South queen ferry. Highly recommended!!

Visited yesterday with family visiting from England. Live through in Fife and have been looking for a really good Chinese restaurant a manageable distance from home and came across Bamboo on trip advisor. Menu had everything you would want. Food was very fresh and tasty. Service was great and attentive. We'll definitely be back!

I visited with my 8 month old daughter and family last week and was blown away by the service received. The staff were lovely and the food tasted so fresh it was fantastic. Nothing was too much trouble. Restaurant looked warm and inviting. Would deffenatly recommend and I will be returning with my husband for my birthday in December.

Went in for my family's monthly tea. Friendly and cheerful staff. Food was up to its usual high standards. 10/10

Cuatro de nosotros disfrutamos de las comidas en el restaurante bambú en la tarde del lunes, y pensamos que el servicio era muy bueno. Sin duda volveremos para más basada en esta experiencia. El único inconveniente era basura fuera del restaurante, que no dar a nuestros amigos una gran impresión a la llegada.

Visitng here on sunday, nothing worse than looking forward to a meal and it is a disaster. A lot of mixed reviews on here, more bad than good !

Went tonite with family as we have raved about this place to our shame tonite it was so bad ,...

Absolutamente encantadora comida y bien de precio, el servicio era bueno! Tuvimos una comida con un amigo un viernes por la noche, y nos lo pasamos de maravilla, este es un lugar para comer y recomendaría comer aquí reservar una mesa.

Tome siempre es excelente y tan bueno como es posible.

Have used this restaurant many times, but tonight was the worst I have ever had. Ordered the 2 Roast had it before wonderful, tonight I got very dry meat sure it was cooked yesterday, if they had served it up to me sitting in it would have gone back immediately, however on a delivery not easy to do, so in the bin it went

Had a few take ways from here food always really nice and hot fast delivery friendly staff would recommend this restaurant to family and friends

Unless you have just won the lottery don't buy a drink, service is ok and have been several times now as the food is good always but the price of drinks puts you off, we just paid £8 for two pints of soda & lime !!!!! Then every now and again their card machine is broken and can only take cash !!!!!!

This is the best chinese restaurant i have ever eaten in can no praise it enough have eaten there several times they have a great menu the food is excellant the staff are so lovely would highly recommend

Waited several minutes for a table despite the restaurant being less than half empty.Seated and ordered a drink (nothing for children other than fresh orange juice) and asked if it was possible to get a smaller or child's portion of a main meal.Was told rather abruptly that they did not and all meals were in the menu.I then asked for a main meal for me and ordered 3 side dishes for my son and was told that they would not do that. I could order a main meal to share or a separate main meal for him but they would not serve a main meal with various side dishes and if that was what we wanted we could order a takeaway.Absolutely disgusted at the manner in which we were dealt with. Obviously these people make so much money they don't want passing business or have any desire to serve families or anyone with a child.We just travelled over 100 miles, checked in at the local Premier Inn and my son wanted to go to a Chinese restaurant. Disgraceful!!

I have been here a few times and have to say the restaurant is waaaaay better than their takeaway. Always seems relaxed, friendly and the staff happy to help. Food lives up to expectations, tasty, fresh and portions enough for me to just about squeeze out the door afterwards. Prices are reasonable and no complaints for their food or service.Will be back soon.

Came here all the way from stirling and would definitely come back, food was amazing, staff were friendly and restaurant was very clean and relaxing!

Good portions , freshly cooked and very tasty .The restaurant is very clean organized, and in good location.I recommend it for special dinners.Thanks.

8 of us arrived having booked only 2 hours earlier. Friendly greeting and straight to well set out table. From ordering food arrived very quickly for so big a party yet every dish from pancake rolles to satey looked and tasted freshly cooked. Main courses all excellent and huge portions. Staff friendly and attentive and prices very reasonable. Will go again.
