Bamboo Inn Restaurant

Great Chinese food, good selection. Both the menu and buffet are good. Owner, waiter, waitresses all pleasant. Price is good for amount of food on plate. Easy parking, nice view.

Nice traditional Chinese restaurant with good buffet. good place for dinner with family and friends. Big space

While the food is pretty good. Save your money and skip the buffet. It’s so poorly stocked even at supper time you’d be lucky if you can serve 4 people before its empty.
They keep the buffet items low stocked so there is never anything to take. If they bring 2 – 3 cups of something you’d be lucky.
Management doesn’t care if you complain. It was like this with the old owners as well.
When a person is paying $ 16+ don’t be getting cheap. Plenty of other places a person can eat at and not be waiting for them to bring out something anything!
Well as an update May ²⁷⁄₂₀₁₆
Buffet is still poorly filled. Literally everything was empty or a spoon full of this and that. They come out a check what’s empty which is pretty much everything and maybe 10 min later came out with 2 spring rolls and maybe a cup of ginger beef. Meanwhile 80% of the buffet is empty.
I had to laugh when the staff is mixing near empty items in the warmers. I don’t get it with this place. Either FILL the pans in the warmer FULL or don’t bother. Rice and noodles isn’t buffet! A person feels bad and don’t take enough to possibly leave a spoon or two for the next sucker that ordered buffet.
I will not being going back here every again. Apparently to save money they keep buffet stocked to the bare minimum, and take forever to restock it with barely anything when they do.
Goto the driftwood toward Campbell River if you want to see how a real buffet operates. It’s like a 3^rd world country begging for them to bring something anything.
I’m not the first not the last person that complained about the always empty warmers.
Management obviously couldn’t care less. Point being 80% or more is empty or a spoon or two left. Only thing stocked is wonton soup, rice and noodles.

The Comox relation to the Bamboo Garden in Courtenay, this restaurant features a nice buffet style selection, comfortable setting, overlooking the estuary.
Service was very attentive, and the experience was reasonably priced.
