Bamboo Thai Bistro in Redondo Beach is absolutely amazing! The service is consistently incredible, and my server always remembers my love for extra heat—talk about personalized attention! My go-to dish is the Chicken Basil, which is always fresh and flavorful. I’ve also tried their red and yellow curries and the Papaya Salad—everything is absolutely delicious and packed with the perfect amount of spice. If you love authentic, bold, and spicy Thai food paired with top-notch service, this is the place to be. Highly recommend!

If I could I would give this place zero stars, I ordered to go but I wanted to eat in house I only asked for a plate and the server got mad telling me you're ordering it to go you are supposed to eat it outside what does that mean. I ignored it strike one, there were no utensils in the bag so I asked for utensils and she started shouting at me that you have utensils I showed her the bag and she just took it and ran with it. I've asked for a refund and without no apologies they just threw the money on my face which is cool too. Never coming back here again Don't come back here soggy food and bad attitude

Diner Review №7

Yellow chicken curry i recomend is very good spicy...

Diner Review №8

I got a salad and the Pad Thai and could not have been more pleased with the freshness and flavor. The restaurant was small, but not too crowded or loud. My wife and I could have an easy conversation and both agreed this was great food! This is a late review, as it was over a year ago when we were here. If we are back in the area, this will be a place we WILL stop to eat.

I don’t want to tell everyone about the mango sticky rice because it’s so damn good and then it’ll always be 86 when I come back. So I’ll decide not to say anything

Diner Review №12

The lemongrass soup with chicken is full flavored and very abundant in protein. Great local Thai food takeout.

Diner Review №13

Good service, good food, always have an open table, food comes out fast.

Diner Review №14

one of my favorite places to eat late lunch in the form of chicken wonton soup & pad see ew before heading to the Del Amo mall

Diner Review №15

Good local Thai restaurant, dishes are large shareable portions and affordable. Tasty, well priced, reliable place for eating satisfaction.

Diner Review №16

Bland Thai food for the uninitiated or those who have very narrow range of cultural food awareness in provincial Redondo Beach

Diner Review №17

Absolutely hands down my favorite Thai restaurant. The lunch specials are so good and at $14 you can't beat it. Super good.

Diner Review №18

Delicious quality food at a reasonable price and quantity, friendly service. Brown rice is 3 bucks extra, not too bad, reasonable portion. I’ll definitely be returning and am glad for the find.

Undefeated in the South Bay. This has been a staple because of its friendly staff and amazing food. Staff is great about knowing what is able to be made vegan so just ask!

Diner Review №25

Sehr leckeres Essen und nette Bedienung. Eine willkommene Abwechslung zu dem ganzen Fastfood hier. Ich kann es nur empfehlen.

Diner Review №26

You have to get the chicken satay, tom yum, crispy pork and pineapple curry. All of the food is good here!

Diner Review №27

Diner Review №28

We brought our dad here for lunch. The food was so delicious. Everything fresh and perfectly seasoned. We enjoyed it!

Diner Review №29

The staff was very nice and polite. The food was very good. I would highly recommend the coconut soup. The soup was exceptional!

Diner Review №30

Great service. The food was wonderful.
The curry was very tasty. If you love Pad Thai, highley recommend their dish.

Favorite Thai spot around! Awesome curries!

Diner Review №34

Extremely slow, called in to go order, they said 15 mins, took 45min!!!!!! Waited in the store for 25 mins after arriving. RIDICULOUS and no apology other than "we got busy". Then why you tell me 15 mins?!?!

Diner Review №35

Diner Review №36

Bamboo Thai Bistro is a terrific neighborhood Thai restaurant in North Redondo. Parking is easy as they have their own lot and there is street parking. Lots of vegetarian and vegan options. Just tell them make the sauce vegan, and it’s perfect everytime. My favorite is their spicy basil eggplant with extra eggplant instead of protein! And their Fresh Rolls are VERY good.

Great Tom Kha and Drunken Noodle! It's a solid "go to" spot for Thai.

Diner Review №40

Hmm one would think that la is pretty competitive but this is no Thai food I spend more time in Thailand than the US and you can get decent Thai most places but not here soz

One of the best Thai food places around. Great service and value.

Diner Review №49

We regularly order the crab fried rice and pad see ew with pork. Always taste great with a quick turnaround.
Easy parking available.

Diner Review №50

I tried the tom kha and the pad thai, they have good flavor, strong dishes and traditional flavors, very good service and fair price, highly recommended

Diner Review №51

Shrimp spring rolls and the peanut sauce were supreme. Love their soups 💓

Diner Review №52

This is one of the best Thai restaurants I have been to! The food came out very quickly and it was delicious!! I also got the Thai tea, which was a good amount and tasted very nice compared to other restaurants. 10/10 I recommend coming here, definitely worth it!!!

Diner Review №53

Diner Review №54

Diner Review №55

Worth going! Tasty!

Diner Review №56

Today I came for the 2nd time, excellent service, I ordered a Tom kha and steamed dumplings, both delicious but definitely the star of my night was the dessert!! Today I tried mango sticky rice for the first time and WOW!! It's my new favorite dessert ever!! I recommend it 100%!!

Diner Review №57

We loved this place! As a “soup lover” I have to say this is a great place to go for dinner, good prices, good sizes and good taste. The waitresses were very friendly and welcoming. We will definitely go back

Diner Review №58

Ordered Pad Thai w/chicken. No taste and very little chicken, I had to pay $2 extra for peanut sauce just so he had some taste to it. I won’t go back !

Diner Review №59

Diner Review №60

The food is great, they are the only Thai restaurant we know of around here with sticky rice so we keep coming back. A bit pricey though. I think the serving size is a little bigger eating in then if you takeout.. so we try to eat in more

Diner Review №61

This place is the best! If i could eat here every night i would in a heart beat.

Great food, great service, and the best food this side of Redondo!

Diner Review №62

Always fast and fresh, the best Thai food in town!

Diner Review №63

This small restaurant has a friendly staff, a good menu variety and well prepared food. A good neighborhood restaurant. It does close on the early side.

Diner Review №64

Diner Review №65

Love the food. The sound was a little sweet for my pallet, but then again, what can you expect from a "coconut" cream soup? I mean, it's in the name, basically. But the restaurant was very clean, the ambiance was quiet, and the people were friendly.

Diner Review №66

Purchased the orange chicken, online order. The orange sauce was quite good, fresh, and made from scratch. However, the chicken wasn't crispy. The entree doesn't come with rice. I'm not sure why that wasn't explicitly mentioned. Rice isn't that expensive to include in a dish that is $15.99

Diner Review №67

Great experience! The food was delicious my husband and I both got the Pad Thai. The portion size was great and had enough leftovers for another meal. The service was good and the atmosphere was nice as well. Would definitely go back!

Diner Review №68

Great place! Quick service and good food! Manager came and greeted everyone and asked how it was.
This was one of the best Tom KaH’s I have ever had! I like to order it at each Thai place. Some aren’t even worth the mention even though presentation looks nice at others.

Great amount of chicken and mushrooms! Served hot and stayed hot with the heater!

Fried rice and other entrees were great too!

Diner Review №69

Diner Review №75

A cute place with yummy food. Everything our party ordered was delicious and we received our food quickly. The atmosphere was comfortable and inviting.

It is a bit frustrating that rice isn’t included in any of the dishes.

Everyone at my table except me received generous portions. I paid $14 for a tofu stir fry that still left me hungry when I was finished.

Diner Review №76

Diner Review №77

I did take out, order was fresh spring rolls and wings . 9/10 !!!! I wasnt a big fan of the tangy orange flavored spicy sauce on the wing but it was still delish . It was just different to me. I loved that i got 6 spring rolls for 14$ and a good big portion of the peanut sauce.Delicious!!! I will most definitely be returning.

Diner Review №78

Yes, yes, yes!!! 1st time there. Crab fried rice was my choice....and they have me hooked. Cant wait to try there

Diner Review №79

We enjoyed all the food, garlic green bean stir-fry with beef, orange chicken, brown rice, yellow curry and the Thai tea. We didn't try the Pad Thai because of some negative reviews even though that's usually my first choice at Thai restaurants. Maybe next time.
The service was very nice too.
Only thing is, rice is a la carte and if you ask for no ice in non-refill drinks they charge 50c extra.

Diner Review №84

Food is so good, the mango dessert is wonderful. Service is helpful and fast

Diner Review №85

Cute little place. Spinach with peanut sauce, which I had never had before, was excellent. Egg rolls were good. However the Pad Thai, which is a favorite of mine, was disappointingly bland.

Diner Review №86

Good food,ample serving size, clean friendly...

Diner Review №87

I have been ordering the Thai coconut soup here a few times. I have to say that I am disappointed. There isn't much flavor to the soup, and the chicken comes out so overcooked it's dry. In the past, I've really enjoyed their Thai food here, but recently, it seems the quality has gone down.

Diner Review №88

Diner Review №89

Food is always so good and their service is excellent, special shout out to may ❤️

Diner Review №90

I went to this place after seeing multiple positive reviews. I ordered Drunken Noodles with shrimp and requested it spicy. The noodles were really bland. The shrimp were completely undercooked. I had to request them to recook the shrimp. I also tasted dirt in my food. Very disappointing food.

Diner Review №91

Diner Review №92

3 words ... mango sticky rice

Diner Review №93

1st time here and our waiter was very helpful in recommendations, which I appreciated a lot. He brought us water right away and was attentive. We ordered the appetizer chicken wing . It was not spicy, it was sooo good, my 12 yr old daughter was able to eat some. We ordered the pad Thai mixed and vegetables mixed, glass noodles soup, also white rice. Everything was tasty!

Diner Review №94

Our "go to" favorite when in the mood for Thai food. Always enjoy their coconut soup, curries, orange chicken, and of course their mango and sticky rice for dessert!

Diner Review №95

Absolutely killer coconut shrimp soup!!

Diner Review №100

We had spicy basil eggplant and pad ke mao, both with impressively little flavor. Cheap but very bland. Go elsewhere.

Diner Review №101

Got take out. Both mine and my partners food was incredibly bland and the egg rolls were very overpriced for what we received. We will not be returning

Diner Review №102

Diner Review №103

Thai food is a spiritual part in my life. Key ingredients and preparation is important. Bamboo Thai brings all of this together. When I finish. My soul feels complete and my heart is full of joy. Best Thai food in South Bay.

Diner Review №104

Delicious always! Perfect spice, fresh, it never disappoints it’s my favorite Thai place! Red and green curry both fantastic

Diner Review №105

Diner Review №106

Service was friendly and the place was busy on Saturday evening for dinner. We had the vegetarian pad Thai. It was Ok. A little steep for the quality . We’ve had pad Thais in Thailand and all over the world , this was a large portion but the taste was so so .

Diner Review №107

Diner Review №108

Really good

Diner Review №109

Hands down the best Thai restaurant in all of LA. Their curry fries are an amazing idea and so, so delicious.

Diner Review №110

Diner Review №111

This is the best Thai cuisine I’ve had in a long time. Their pineapple curry was absolutely delicious! We also go the mango sticky rice, which was also supremely scrumptious! I recommend anyone who likes Thai food to go here. The staff is very polite and accommodating. The prices are a little high but I feel it’s totally worth it!

Diner Review №112

Excellent pad thai

Diner Review №113

Diner Review №114

Sad to see this place go downhill. Pad Thai was wet and soggy with hardly any taste. Chinese broccoli with roast pork was disappointing. The broccoli was old and tough. The pork was hard and dry. Green curry was lacking curry taste. I don’t know what happened as this place was decent before.

Diner Review №115

Diner Review №116

Love the cucumber salad! Everything is good! I eat here often

Diner Review №117

Loved the pineapple yellow curry. Food was great and nice staff, the place itself is a little tired. I'm definitely going back.

Diner Review №118

Diner Review №119

I really like this place, especially the lunch specials. The curries are my favorite.

Diner Review №121

Diner Review №122

Love this place

Diner Review №123

Top Quality Thai food. Never had a bad experience.

Diner Review №124

Ordered the panang curry and paid $19 for a 3/4 full bowl. Shrimp came with shells still on it. Picture on DoorDash shows rice and other sides but only received the curry. Will never order from here again.

Diner Review №125

The food is delicious, fresh, tasty and not oily! Our favorite Thai restaurant in North Redondo Beach

Good food at a decent price. Went for their lunch hour meal.

Diner Review №131

If you want bad attitude and horrible service, you can go to this restaurant. Waited 1 and half hour for one fried rice and curry. That is ridiculously bad service. Never will go back!

Diner Review №132

Very Tasty Thai Food, friendly service, highly recommend you to check out. We will be back for sure.

Diner Review №133

Diner Review №134

I love the Spicy Basil eggplant. One of my favorite all time food in the world. It's savory, Spice and sweet, amazing with shrimp the Orange chicken. Is so good here, my husband favorite food. I also reccomend any of the curries!! Quality and taste! Great service too, shoutout to May-really nice guy, really loves people and working there. Good experience.

Diner Review №135

I get food here all the time, though this last time I ordered veggie soup and wonton’s, I have to say I was disappointed because this time around my soup had yellow gunk at the bottom… and the wontons were over fried. I do have to say this was one bad experience over all the other good ones I have had so I will still say you have to try this place out. Staff is very friendly!

Diner Review №136

Shrimp fresh rolls are my normal snack to go from here. The sauce is out of this world and the rolls are always fresh. Everything on the menu is great; my other go-tos for meals include the coconut soup with shrimp, pumpkin curry, pad see ew... oh my gosh and the mango sticky rice is DELICIOUSSSSSSS.

Diner Review №137

Great food, and very friendly service. Gets busy weekend nights.

I was very glad to remember the place after waiting for a tow truck early afternoon to replace a flat rear tire on the car rental at a strip mall along Hawthorne Blvd. next to the south exit ramp from the 405 freeway. Anyway, my late lunch was composed of steamed dumplings (gyoza), wonton broth (large in a vat, yet charged as small), ginger chicken without bell pepper & steamed rice.

I haven't been to this place in 10++ years due to Deplpoyments . Good to see that the food is 5 star service 5 star cleanliness 5 star. I would recommend this place certainly.

Diner Review №149

First timer! I’m new to the area, I was craving pad Thai Noddles & Bamboo bistro came through with the lunch special for $10. Came with egg roll and salad. Loved it ! Can’t wait to try other items on the menu, thank you !!!

Diner Review №151

Pretty good Thai food with great service

Diner Review №152

Best Thai food in the South Bay!

Diner Review №153

Generous portions and delicious food! Take your time to savor the flavors

Diner Review №154

Good food, not super expensive. Mango and sticky rice! Garlic rice! Wontons are only good with the sauce, which is too high on it's own for Ms. No Spicy, but fine in tiny amounts, Glass noodle soup was yummy without cilantro, banana thingies were definitely prepared earlier and whatever wasn't fried was cold. Overall yummy!

Diner Review №155

Diner Review №156

The food tasted as expected and the quantities are as expected, I ordered the pineapple curry, pineapple rice, and the coconut soup. All was good, I wish the soup was a bit stronger in flavor but all in all good. The drink selection is lacking but not enough for me to take a star off.

Diner Review №157

Diner Review №158

I've only eaten at this restaurant once so far, but it's the best Thai food I've had in a long time. Excellent preparation, and the food is terrific! Very highly recommended.

Diner Review №159

The chicken and steak were burned and old meat. Seafood over cooked. Very disappointed.

Diner Review №160

I went there for the first time in a few years.
The food we ordered was not spicy at all.
I was wondering if we could ask them to add some spices. Food was good though.

The Tom kah is too salty!!

Diner Review №167

It has been a few year's since we have been here....kind of forgot about it.But I'm so glad we went back!! Everything was delicious and it will be our regular spot for Thai!! We usually get sticky mango rice for dessert but couldn't even budge with all the great courses

Diner Review №168

Best Thai food in the south bay. We love going here. The staff is very nice and accommodating.

Diner Review №169

Diner Review №170

Came to visit and stopped here to eat. Big fan of curry, and I gotta say..it was amazing. Food didn't take long and tasted really good. If you are/arent a fan spicy food you can tell them what lvl of spice u like (this goes for any and all meals--convienient, right?)

Diner Review №171

Bamboo Thai Bistro has become my go-to for Thai so much so that I ate here three times in the past 18 days but they've been around for many years. I've done delivery, take-out and I've dined in many times. No complaints about the service although last night they did get my order wrong. I ordered the Pineapple curry and they gave me the Pumpkin curry instead. They tried to correct it but it was so delicious that it was a blessing.

It's a decent place for kids because they have booster seats and high chairs. My daughter likes anything noodles. As for food, we've had the drunken noodles, pad see ew, the wonton soup, Tom Kah, spare ribs, spinach with peanut sauce and many curries. I look forward to trying the Pineapple curry.

Diner Review №172

Food is Excellent

Diner Review №173

Diner Review №174

had the coconut curry soup and? lettuce wraps very tasty

Diner Review №175

Excelente.

Diner Review №176

$7 for 4 veggie egg rolls. Prices on their website are different. Food was ok but very overpriced..

Diner Review №177

Amazing curry and great food. Would recommend!

Diner Review №178

Diner Review №179

On a scale of 1-10 Bamboo Thai Bistro would be rated 2 @ best, for the price the portion is a bit small, the orange chicken was dry and tasteless, I personally would not recommend. Try Trader Joe's

Diner Review №180

Diner Review №181

Love those fish cakes! First time here. Service was friendly and patient as we tried to decide what to order. Bathroom available and clean.

Diner Review №182

We found several hairs in several dishes from this place. I called to let them know and they were very rude, would not give a refund, and told me I was wrong.

Diner Review №183

Pick up only. Super friendly staff and fantastic food!

Diner Review №184

Pass on the mochi, coconut soup was good, drunken noodles were no where near spicy to be a level 3/4. After a long day without eating, and a google search later for something yummy, we could have saved our hunger a little longer

Diner Review №185

I love this place! The pumpkin curry is outstanding, and I love that they will do it with steamed tofu which soaks up all the delicious flavors. The pad kee mao is excellent, as is the edamame, and portions are generous. I was super impressed with the fresh rolls, which they’ll do with tofu (steamed) even though it isn’t on the menu. It’s a massive portion and the peanut sauce is outstanding! I haven’t tried anything else because these Things are so good I keep going back for them. I also like that they do their own delivery which is pretty rare these days. The only downside is that they charge extra for rice with your curry, but that isn’t atypical in Redondo. Give them a try and you won’t be disappointed!

Diner Review №186

Food very tasty, fresh, friendly staff. Take out only.

Food is great but the forced tip during a pandemic is shaming... My bill was 76.83 look at bank statement. It 107. 83

That's $31.00 hiked price... If it's mistake I will take post down. But if u see it .. means THIA BISTRO LOST ANOTHER FAMILY AS CLIENTS

Diner Review №193

One of my favorite Thai spots! If I'm in the area, I stop in. I ordered food tonight then sat in my car while waiting for my order. 10 minutes later, they graciously walked my food out to my car! Love the yellow curry and pad thai. Lunch special is the BEST!

Diner Review №194

Diner Review №195

Diner Review №196

I wish there were more vegan/ vegetarian options, especially with traditional dishes. As a person of Thai descent- I know this really isn’t difficult by any means due to the nature of how Thai food is prepared. Many noodle, stir fry and curry dishes are easily modified with mushroom sauce, and veggie broth. Its even less expensive in most cases and saves resources indefinitely. Your company has such a perfect location and beautiful atmosphere, I’d probably go there once a week if there were more veggie friendly options.

Diner Review №197

Diner Review №198

Diner Review №199

Diner Review №200

Food was junk-chicken satay is very dry and lacks flavor. Also got the drunken noodle (which says spicy), and they weren't spicy at all, and the portion was just a few bites-a little small. Won't be trying this place again.
