Quick info
About BAMBOO INN
On Tollcross Rd in Glasgow, Bamboo Inn is a Chinese takeaway serving the neighbourhood for collection and delivery. The menu runs from bbq ribs, prawn toast, and chicken wings to chicken satay skewers and spring rolls, with chow mein and curry among the recurring orders and a salt and pepper munchie box also on offer. Chicken and cheese rolls sit alongside a special chow mein for those after something beyond the standard list. Orders are placed on a walk-in basis, with no reservations taken. It opens evenings only, and is closed on Tuesdays. Delivery reaches the surrounding streets for those eating off site. Portions run large, with a single curry or chow mein enough to share between two, and containers are filled to the brim.

Customer Review Summary
Generous portions are the draw reviewers raise most, with several noting a single curry or a special chow mein would feed two and containers come full to the brim. Close behind are the homemade spring rolls, which one reviewer cannot stop thinking about, and a mixed starter spread of ribs, prawn toast, chicken wings and satay skewers. Others single out the chicken and cheese rolls and a tofu meal. Reviewers also describe friendly, polite staff, including when arriving shortly before closing, and a shop kept clean, with fast service. The complaints are specific. One reviewer found the chicken curry too salty. Another says a salt and pepper munch box was mostly chips and did not taste fresh, and a third had chicken balls missing from theirs. One reviewer called the prices restaurant-level after chicken satay arrived as a starter with no boiled rice, and one first-time order came with a box of free spring rolls.

“At the present moment in time this is about the only Chinese takeaway in the eastend of Glasgow that's any good as, they have all went down hill to the point people have stopped going so finding this place was a pleasant surprise because it's actually okay not saying it's amazing but it is actually okay”
