Since finding out our daughter has Coeliac Disease, we've not had Chinese food as a family because it's so hard to find gluten free Chinese food. We went last night after finding out about Red Bamboo from an Instagram blog ( @howtocoeliac) about gluten free food in London. The service was great, very friendly, and the food delicious, with a whole menu of gluten free items. It was very reasonably priced too. We've taken the leftovers home, and a takeaway menu. We'll definitely order from there again, and go back for dinner again.

Hyped up on TikTok so I thought I’d try it. Food was 5/10, wasn’t bad and wasn’t good. Customer service was good and restaurant is fairly clean and tidy.

Gluten-free Chinese food is always a treat. Excellent food and friendly staff. Love the lemon chicken, crispy chilli beef and sweet and sour chicken.

Amazing food, buffet menu, and unique serving experience. The food had an amazing range of food and accepting to all food lifestyle choices, vegetarian, vegan, pescatarians, and halal. Would recommend prawn dishes and the spring rolls. The only thing I would have to say is that it does feel a bit cramped with the limited space and fairly large tables. Overall, it was a deliciously mnemonic experience.

Me and my husband have been coming here for many years and we have never been disappointed. The food is so tasty, we always go for the buffet option and the portions are big and you can order as much as you want. All of the staff are so friendly and always make you feel welcome. I highly recommend The red bamboo to everyone who enjoys a chinese.

Extensive and excellent gluten free menu, I have eaten takeaway from here (lots!) as a coeliac and never had an issue. Food is reasonably priced and the service is good. They do have a minimum spend for eating in (they said £14 per head to us).

Have been here a few times. Usually ok. But last visit was truly awful. The food was totally inedible. We ordered chicken and cashew and crispy duck. Chicken was bland and greasy, the duck was undercooked, flabby, and tasteless. So disappointing. And even though we had hardly touched either dish, they had zero interest in finding out why.

Great buffet, reasonably priced. About £30-40pp with drinks. Can order upto 6 dishes at a time (to help reduce wasteage) portions reasonable and tasty. Good selection of dishes. Hot and sour soup was not on the buffet menu but was available on request. Would both recommend and visit again.

We paid approximately £25 each for an all you can eat menu. You get a checklist and basically tick off items which are split into courses. The portions are small so don't worry if you think you're going to get served main-sized portions. Beware though that unfinished dishes will be charged at a la carte prices. Would not recommend the vegetarian Singapore noodles but the crispy duck was great.

Disappointing, seems to have gone downhill since moving premises. The food is fine but slightly worse quality than that of the take-aways close by, but 30% more expensive. They even illegally charge for tap water with the defence that "water is expensive". Sadly will not be returning.

Got a collection takeaway. Very prompt and friendly phone order, food was ready on time. Fairly small portions that did not fill the containers (apart from the rice). The chicken chow mein was excellent, sweet and sour chicken was good as were the spare ribs but the beef in black bean sauce was poor. The quality of beef was questionable as it had a very strange texture that I cannot describe and as a result we left it. It was our first experience of Red Bamboo, we will try it again and will be happy to change the review should our experience be improved.

It is ashame because all the reviews and photos looked good online,thought it would be good to give it a try as I don't have many local Chinese restaurants near me. I'm sorry to say this but I have never ate such bland noodles in my life.....chicken was literally like jelly I told the waiter and she said she will speak to the chef. Didn't hear nothing back from her she asked if we're finished and took away the plates . At this point I was waiting for someone to come back and offer a possible replacement to what I ordered...nothing. I asked for the bill after sitting for another 10mins which felt like she had just ignored me so I asked someone else for the bill. And unfortunately they tried to charge me £7.80 for a dish I did not touch....at this point I was not happy and just wanted to leave. I told her i do not want to pay for something I didn't touch.she decided to remove it from the bill but felt to inform me if I wish to return NOT to order her chicken as that is how the 'chicken' is served. Lastly to top it off on the way out I over heard a family saying their food wasn't really nice either. Give it a try at your own expense but I wouldn't personally recommend

Unfortunately will not return with children as we were asked to pay adult prices for them for the buffet due to their height. They only went on to eat 2 starters and 1 serving of crispy duck ...so nowhere close to value for the £21 plus each cost. The service was minimal but ok and the food just ok. All a bit no frills but the cost suggests more should be expected.

I haven’t had a Chinese in 8 years because getting it gluten free is near impossible even in London. It was amazing. Huge gluten free menu, all the favourites and more. It wasn’t too greasy or salty. The non gluten free options were also great. Worth travelling for.

Don’t ignore the poor reviews! If I could give no stars I really would. Ordered a delivery on a Monday night and what was delivered was absolutely disgraceful. The prawn toast and spring rolls were drenched in oil and burnt, the salt and pepper squid was microwaved and tasted like rubber again saturated in oil. The dishes were small portions even though we had paid for large, to add insult to injury the woman I spoke to on the phone was so rude and obnoxious and refused to give a full refund, but after numerous discussions and arguments eventually we got a refund. Serious concerns on their delivered food standards. We have packaged up all the remaining food which is around 60% and will be returning it to the restaurant.

Great place for groups with large variety of Dishes. Came he for the first time after a recommendation from my uncle, it's a new type of dinning experience for me. There are two types of evening menu the Al la cart (a normal dinner menu charged per dish) or a sit in three course selection menu of which you can ask for as much as you like. The idea here is that you choose a few starters (depending on number at the table) and if you finish them and want more you can ask for more or a different starter. The same applies to the middle soup or duck course and then same applies to mains (see my images for dishes and courses). Needless to say I would be surprised if you need to ask for more for any of the courses! The dishes are you classic British Chinese style dishes and a few others. All the dishes we ordered were great! Some dishes that I expected not to like (not a fan of squid) were also actually very tasty! The only issue with food is that I had the rare/occasional dry but of chicken in the sweet and sour chicken ball starter, but every single/all other dishes were top notch! Fresh tasty and super tender meat! I also recommend the crispy lamb! The service was excellent, very attentive and friendly waitresses willing to go the extra mile to ensure you are having a good meal. There is only on street parking and there may be parking restrictions (check street views for parking signs) there is also a car park at Waitrose but may be for customers only. TLD: different concept of evening dinning, fresh food and lots of it. Give it a go with a group of friends of family.

Been going to the Honeymoon since I was a child in the 70’s and have been a good customer over the years. Sadly, the food has now deteriorated to a point where I’ve just had my last ever meal there. Here was tonight’s experience: Crispy duck - dry, tough, with poorly prepared vegetables. Pancake roll and chicken balls - opaque and literally dripping in oil, and when I say dripping, I mean, dripping. Chicken curry - rubbery, water pumped, cheap chicken, reminiscent of the texture of mushroom, definitely not chicken breast. Everything else, including rice, utterly tasteless.
