Invaluable asset to FOODIES and vegetarians

by GretchenVonLudendorff at Citysearch

Stayed in Seattle for a day en-route to Alaska cruise and was suggested this by a pharmacist at a local Walgreens. Being Jewish we wanted kosher food and this place was perfect.

Food is vegetarian and tastes fantastic, and family was more than overjoyed.

Price was modest and think we shall visit Seattle once again , just to sample the food here and the beer at Hale's Ale!

Cheers!

Not just for vegans & vegetarians

by JWallis at Citysearch

After years of having 1-2 options on a menu I was seriously overwhelmed by the multiple pages of delicious, fully vegan dishes I had to choose from. When my Mom & I went we each ordered 2 dishes, both because we couldn't pick just 1 & because the dishes weren't much $. After my (extremely carnivous) husband tried my left overs he agreed to give it a try and was also impressed. He likes the kung pao chicken and says it reminds him of chicken mcnuggets (texture). Since then I've gone back many times and got many friends and family members, most not vegetarians, hooked on the simply but extremely tasy dishes.

The service is almost always fantastic too. Usually we've received our meal (4 dishes, at least) within 10 minutes of sitting down. But I will say that sometimes we've had slow service and 1 or 2 times out waiter/ress seemed like they weren't too into serving us, thats a pretty rare occurence though and everyone has an off night.

I highly reccomend going, even if you're not vegan/ vegetarian!

Heaven?

When I moved to Seattle almost 6 years ago I decided to go vegan and this was the first place I ate at. Hold on my mouth is watering just thinking about it. (Ok, regaining composure.) The staff is so sweet and will recognize you as a regular by welcoming you back! The menu has A LOT to offer. It is based off of the seven weeks of vegetarianism that the emperor was required to practice before making the annual prayer for the kingdom's prosperity. From "chicken" to "beef" to "seafood," add noodles and rice or just enjoy a delicious all veggie dish! Warning! This place can get busy so its a good idea to make a reservation. Another fabulous thing to tell you! They are open until 10p and they offer take out. Oh and corn chowder. Oh me, oh my....the corn chowder.

• Pros: everything is vegan but the cookie at the end!
• Cons: No one goes for the decor!

Don't be a jerk...this place is great! It's definitely not 5 star dinning but is chinese food ever! If you had a few to many drinks the night before you have to go to bamboo Garden! It's a real treat for us vegetarians to enjoy some delicious fried chicken that actually taste good! I'm no fan of fake meat but there's is special...try the sweet and sour chicken oh and also the almond chicken. Yum.

• Pros: Amazing service and inexpensive
• Cons: Maybe not the greatest decor

I can order anything on the menu!

This is an exciting statement to make if you are vegetarian or vegan. The food is delicious, we always try something new and have yet to be dissapointed.

I don't know what another post said about paying to park in their lot - we always park in their lot and have never had a problem and have never been asked to pay. The service is always friendly; sure sometimes there is a language barrier - but I don't think we have ever received the wrong dish.

The decor could be updated a smidge, but other than that I love Bamboo Garden.

• Pros: All vegetarian, fun, tasty
