If you enjoy sh*tting yourself into oblivion you’ll enjoy the fine cuisine of Pho Bambu. The night started out as a series of dominoes, each event getting worse and worse. We order simple items. Spring Rolls. Chow Mein. Shrimp Pad Thai. How could you go wrong? Well... I tried to order a coconut milk drink, they didn’t coconut milk... maybe that my mistake I should of paid more attention to the menu. I ordered the green tea boba. I usually ask places if they put milk in their boba teas and the answer is usually no, so this was my mistake but this plays a prominent role in the story. I took a few sips and started feeling ill, I realized there was milk in the drink. The waiter took it back and offered something else but I stuck to water. The spring rolls were pretty good and the peanut sauce was yummy. Bold of me to assume the food would continue to consist of quality. When the chowmein came out my tongue was introduced to crusty undercooked noodles slathered in Housion sauce, I only took two bites before realizing the battle of convincing my self this sorry excuse of chow mein was edible enough to continue my excursion. Finally the Pad Thai arrives. The protagonist of the story. How could you go so wrong with something so simple? I usually have a high tolerance for spicy, I even Like to add hot sauce to my meals, but when I tell You this pad Thai was manufactured in the absolute pits of hell and spat by Hade’s two headed dog onto my plate with a side of Cilantro, I tell you this plate was H O T. No where in the menu was there any indication the pad Thai was soaked in Jalapeño piss. When we asked for them to take it back, They literally had rinsed the noodles in hot water and just mixed in powered chicken bullion. I know this because of how quick the noodles came back to us and the excess powder residue. I proceeded to spend my next 20 mins in the restroom blacking in and out of consciousness. I had both seen the face of God in the bathroom and had the Pad Thai of the devil. I’m guessing milk + spicy noodles don’t mix. Our waiter was nice enough to leave us a leaky pen to sign our check, which left us with another 5 minutes in the bathroom to wash...
Read moreI had a bad experience at Pho BamBu. Last night I went there and the owner took my order. I asked him what kind of beef was in the beef pho combo and he said it’s brisket, rare steak and beef meatballs. So I ordered it and when I got home I saw that the pho was in one container and the beef was in another container. I put everything in a pan to heat it up and I started eating it but was completely grossed out because there was tripe, tendon, gristle and other gross things in the soup. I actually felt nauseated when I saw it in the soup. It totally ruined my dinner. I went back today and spoke to the owner and I asked him why he told me that the beef combo had beef brisket, rare steak and meatballs and he didn’t say anything about the tripe, tendons and other ingredients. I said I would have never ordered it because I don’t eat tripe and those other things. It was not on their menu that the other gross things would be in the soup. I thought he would apologize or offer me another dish for free or give me a refund. This is what other normal restaurants do that have good customer service. He got offended and was argumentative and he wouldn’t do anything to resolve the issue. I asked him if it’s worth it to get a bad review because of his unwillingness to resolve it. He said “I don’t care, go ahead and give me a bad review.” So I left and I will not ever go back there again. I do not recommend this place unless you love tripe, tendons, gristle and other gross things that you may find...
