Bamboo Basket - Brisbane

Hi Bamboo Basket Your food was pleasant tasting and portions were generous. We really liked your fried rice. However, the amount of salt in your food is not OK. Also, the noodles came in a big clump :

My place of choice for take out when staying around Southbank side of the city. The food is great. We usually just go in and order our take out. The staff are very nice and pleasant, they would ask us to sit at one of the tables while waiting for our food. You don't have to wait long at all. There's a lot to choose from the menu as well. We love the food here and will go back anytime.

We've been here several times and food is always good. Unfortunately our last dinner was disappointing as the food was brought out over 45 mins. Dishes that we ordered to complement each other we're eaten by the time the rest of the food came. And we only ordered 5 dishes so this was a let down. Affordable good food though.

Each dish I ordered had a distinct flavour and texture. While I generally find Chinese food to emphasise sweetness in its dominant flavour, this restaurant (perhaps because of a Taiwanese influence? , had some depth to the savoury flavours. The hand made noodles tasted fresh and the dishes were seasoned well. Furthermore, the BBQ pork was if excellent quality and generous serving size. The meat was BBQed carefully and lost none if it's moisture. Drink prices are reasonable and the wait staff are attentive and fast, if not always bubbly. I would suggest that the restaurant play some music at a low level to cut through the echo that is pervasive from the hard surfaces. Without music, it can feel like you're eating in a school hall. Good flavour, good servings, reasonable drink prices.

The family dined in on a Friday night with no booking. Staff service could have been better but did the job. Food was tasty and came out fast. Standard Chinese restaurant menu with dumpling menu as well.
