Bamboo Villa — Restaurant in Cotswold District

One stars is too much for this place now. We have eaten here too many times as a local with limited opportunities for other food types within the village. However the last two occasions the food has been terrible. Some dishes - Kung Po is “ok”, Crispy Beef again fine if you like batter and chilli however they have serious issues with their chicken supplier, please don’t go for any chicken not in a batter. Chicken balls, chicken satay and chicken in pineapple - they use process meat with a very low meat content. The texture is like raw chicken however having complained and got a new batch it was the same when we got it home - slimy jelly like substance. To test this we even cooked it at home in a frying pan and after 5 mins the texture had not changed! I am gutted to say this but this place needs to be shut down for public safety. I will be contacted trading standards after our NYE 2020 meal - probably sums up 2020 - sh@t meal to end...

Just stopped by around 8pm 22/08/25

The lady that served me was ever so lovely and welcoming, and the menu has amazing options! Today was my first time, I ordered the crispy shredded chicken with chilli sauce and the large fried spring roll. The whole meal, start to finish was gorgeous, as well as the packagaing that kept it all crispy till I wanted to dip the chicken. So so soooo flavourful, saucy, crispy, hot ans goregous. Genuinely one of my best takeaway experiences. Smelt amazingly ans tasted even better! I cannot wait to try more options in future when I'm in the area. Thank yku so much,...

Bamboo Village - Chowmein was ok but could of done with more seasoning, Rice also a bit low on seasoning.

Chips, Satay sauce, Salt and chilli Prawns and prawn toast were great.

But the Chicken balls? They were gloopy, gelatinous, translucent meat and did not feel or taste like any chicken ball I have ever had. More Dough / Batter than meat and tasted more like a donut.

The Jury is out on whether I will be back , but if i am it wont be for the "Chicken"...
