"My husband and I were passing thru Richmond on our way to a family Christmas party in Raleigh & stopped by Bamboo Cafe as recommended by a friend. We did not know what to expect but were blown away by the cozy booths, delicious food & warm and prompt service. Carla was fantastic & although this place appears as a dive bar, the filet mignon was 10/10!!! Will be back next time we are in town :)"

"Such a unique and old bar/restaurant. The atmosphere is really great, the menu is simple, the food is great. Nothing to complain about with this place. All-around a solid choice."

"I have been going to this place since the '70's and it never dissapoints! A fun lively place, good vibe, and food is very good. A very popular small restaurant and bar in the fan district!"

"This is a really comfortable neighborhood corner bar. The glasses were frosty, the atmosphere is cozy, and there is a big TV for watching sports. There are only 3 taps so its not really a beer drinker's bar, and the appetizers were pretty good."

"You need to respect the regulars. They have their tables and they tip well so wait your turn. The food is great and so is the service. If you expect special treatment, go elsewhere. You earn that here."
