Bamboo Palace delivers a dining experience that balances value with consistency, and it deserves acknowledgment for both its strengths and opportunities for improvement. Upon arrival, the staff were polite, attentive, and quick to greet. Service throughout the meal was efficient. Water refills came without needing to ask, and our server checked in at appropriate intervals without hovering. That level of attention shows care in hospitality, which many restaurants overlook. The dining room, while modest, was clean and organized. Tables were cleared promptly, and there was noticeable effort in maintaining the environment for guests. The menu offers a wide selection of traditional Chinese and Asian-inspired dishes. Portions are generous, making pricing fair for the amount served. Dishes arrived hot, fresh, and within a reasonable timeframe, even during a busy dining period. The quality of ingredients—especially vegetables and proteins—was solid, cooked properly, and presented well. There are areas where enhancement would elevate the experience further. Some dishes lacked the depth of flavor one would expect from classic recipes. Seasoning and sauces felt mild at times, as if tailored too cautiously to broad preferences. A slight increase in aromatics—garlic, ginger, and spices—would bring far more character and authenticity to the flavors. Additionally, small service details such as offering chopsticks or checking on dietary preferences could add to the overall cultural and personal experience. Despite those notes, the value remains strong. Guests seeking hearty portions, friendly service, and budget-conscious dining will appreciate what Bamboo Palace provides. It is the kind of local establishment that thrives when customers offer clear feedback, and the team seems willing to listen and improve. I will return to try other dishes and look forward to experiencing the restaurant’s continued growth. With a bit more focus on flavor refinement, Bamboo Palace has the potential to shift from a dependable option to a standout favorite in the area. The foundations are here—generous servings, pleasant service, and a clean environment. Continued attention to seasoning and presentation could elevate everything to the next level. Overall, I appreciate the effort and hospitality from the team, and I am optimistic about what’s ahead for this restaurant.

Food was good, but not great. Service was okay. The interior still looks like the Italian place that used to be there. The decorations help the atmosphere a little bit. Prices are decent. We spent $80 on a meal for 5 and everyone was satisfied. Overall a 4/5.

This has always been my favourite Chinese food place in Abbotsford. I have been eating here since the 1970’s. Hadn’t been here for a long time as I’d moved away but I was very happy to see the food was as good as I remembered.

I ordered wonton soup for take out. It was delicious! the size of the wontons were perfectly bite sized. I highly recommend. I’ll be back at least once a week for this dish.

Ordered takeout quite a few times and went in on Sunday for my birthday dinner. My whole family was so impressed and agreed that it’s some of the best Chinese food. The honey garlic boneless pork is my favourite!
