I've been a fan of bamboo for a long time. I've always told people it's the best Chinese food in Pittsburg. But last night was pitiful. I ordered shrimp lo mein, while eating it I came across three shrimp that were not properly deveined. I took my food back to the restaurant to show them the mistake and to have the issue resolved. The lady behind the counter went to go get a manager. But rather than the manager come and address the problem she sent the cashier back to tell me the shrimp comes already deveined and there was nothing they could do. What an excuse, so you don't train your cooks to inspect the food? You're telling me that you'd be ok to get dirty shrimp in your meal? I was hoping they would have at least apologized for the mishap and possibly given me a voucher for another a meal or refunded my money. But nope. So I not be eating here anymore.

I have been a loyal customer to bamboo since they opened. You lost a very long term customer for a snotty little girl with a...
Read moreThe food is kind of pricey, but they supply HUGE servings. I once ordered the chicken lo mein and was set for lunch for four days. Bamboo's food is pretty basic Chinese-American cuisine. Satisfying, but nothing spectacular.
Tip: the crab rangoon may be pretty awful, but their spin rangoon is a great alternative.
I am usually very satisfied each time I pick up food from Bamboo, but if you're planning a quick delivery during a work break or after classes, don't count on it. They're delivery service has never been less than 45 minutes (for me at least). I usually call about an hour in advance in order to time my...
