| - For the most part, I agree with the recurring themes in the previous Bamboo Club reviews - the cool atmosphere (especially the balcony overlooking Mill Avenue), the good service, and yes, the good but not great food - but with a couple of exceptions. The Mandarin Orange Tofu is so delicious. It comes with spinach on the side, and I don't know what they do to it (is it fried?) but I can't get enough of it. It's called Mandarin Orange Chicken on the menu - Bamboo Club will substitute tofu for meat in any of their dishes (I recommend vegetarians still inquire about sauce ingredients). I also recommend the Asian Tofu with Vegetables. Quite tasty.
This is usually a lunch spot for me and a co-worker or two or three, but I've also been here with larger groups on several different occasions - much larger groups (20-30 people), and always received excellent service. In fact, the first time our "event organizer" failed to order any vegetarian dishes, the Bamboo Club staff - after apologizing (not their fault!) - responded quickly and efficiently, providing several meat-free options without question or extra charge.
The food I think deserves between 3 and 3 1/2 stars, but the good service and cool atmosphere push them up to 4.
