My friend and I drove from San Francisco to Los Angeles for a long weekend getaway. We searched and looked for a breakfast AYCE Pinoy restaurant. Stumbled upon this, and I must say, it's worth it!Upon entering the restaurant, we were greeted with a warm and jolly welcome. My friend and I were actually their first customers on this day, and then after 30-45 mins, people started coming in. My craving Filipino tummy got satisfied from their pancit bihon, to longganisa and tocino, to fried dried fish down to their fried and scrambled eggs, name it!No wonder a lot of Filipino Celebrities and known personalities visited this place. A must-try for your visit in the city of angels!

The food was good, it was buffet with good selections. The food could use a little more heat (it was borderline cold)Service was also good the empty plates were constantly picked up and food trays filled.Ambiance was fine primarily Filipino guests.ConsThere was hair in the food (not just one dish). Because it's buffet it could be from the customers or the people that are filling the trays with food. I think it would help if there was a glass that somewhat shields the food from flying hair.

Go to their weekend buffet! Lots of selection and menu. Lots of Filipino favorites are there. Desserts are bountiful and tasty. Service is excellent so it is busy and karaoke is popular. Outside appease is deceiving. Once you are inside, ambiance is cozy, comfortable and homey. I love their wall decoration. Cultural theme and classy.

We dropped by this Filipino Weekend Buffet by Panorama City to see their food selections and enjoy what they offered.The restaurant was packed with a line of people scooping out an array of Filipino dishes from meat to stew selections, soups and desserts. The owner Dan showcased the resto's nightly Karaoke or Sing Along, a Filipino invention way back in the early days of this musical icon.Their dishes are perfectly cooked and everything seems to lend with the rice choices available. I just hope they also had veggie choices and options and more fruit desserts for folks like us. It's a very loud place to be so if you're looking for sake thing quiet, this is not your place. It's really a bar type environment and the prices are very affordable and such attracts many folks who wanted to enjoy Filipino dishes. Parking is free and it's also accessible for disabled folks.

Great place to unwind with different entertainment daily from comedian, singers and bands. It tends to be packed on the weekends. Owner and staff are friendly and always caters to your needs. They also offer breakfast buffet on the weekends. Prices are affordable for the food that they offer. Must try in San fernando valley. I recommend this place. We come here from time to tome and it never disappoints. We always have fun and go home with our bellies full.

It's only appropriate that for AAPI Heritage Month, I highlight one of the best Filipino breakfast and lunch buffets in LA -- Bamboo Bistro. Each time I have eaten there, Kuya Dan and his team are always so welcoming. He is known to go out of his way to make sure the food is always fresh and your dining needs are met. If you're not familiar, this restaurant/karaoke bar is located inside Plaza Del Valle at the intersection of Chase/Van Nuys Blvd in Panorama City. The plaza is a decent size outdoor shopping mall with plenty of free parking. Bamboo Bistro happens to be a large restaurant space that also has a DJ booth and stage for karaoke and comedy acts in the evening.I've only gone for the weekend breakfast/lunch buffet and they always have the best variety of Filipino dishes. During this time, the food is served cafeteria style and debating what to get next is standard practice. My personal favorite is the adobo fried rice paired with either Kare Kare or Corn Beep (lol).It may not be the Philippines but dining at Bamboo Bistro sure does make you feel like you're taking a break living the island life to eat at your favorite food hall.

If you're craving Filipino food and looking for a place to indulge, Bamboo Bistro is a great spot to satisfy your cravings! This all-you-can-eat Filipino buffet offers a wide selection of classic dishes, and the food is fresh, flavorful, and authentic.The buffet spread is impressive, with all the favorites like adobo, pancit, crispy lechon, and longanisa, along with a variety of other delicious options. Everything was well-prepared, and the dishes were regularly replenished, so nothing ever felt like it had been sitting out for too long. I particularly enjoyed the kare-kare which were perfectly seasoned and reminded me of home-cooked meals.The staff was friendly and kept everything clean and organized. It's a casual, no-frills kind of place, but the focus is definitely on the food. It's also a great value for the price, considering it's all-you-can-eat!Overall, Bamboo Bistro is a solid choice for anyone wanting to dive into some good Filipino comfort food. I'll definitely be back to try more dishes!

I've been wanting to try the weekend brunch here after seeing a few youtubers I follow eat here. Finally got to try it out today and I am soooo stuffed! We arrived at 11am and they still had the breakfast spread with the addition of fried chicken and lechon kawali. As we were eating they slowly started replacing the breakfast items with lunch items. I was so stuffed but I wanted to keep eating as they brought more food out. The service was really friendly and the drinks were included in the price. Cost was about $23.50 per adult and $15.75 for kids before tax. You pay before you get seated after running my card the tip option came up and a I was looking at it the gentleman said don't worry about it and selected no tip and handed me the receipt. I thought that was pretty cool of them. The food was really good specially the garlic fried rice. I've been doing keto no carb for a while but today I had 4 feelings of the Garlic fried rice. The fried shrimp was also really good. This is the only Filipino place I know in the area that does all you can eat. I was really impressed and highly recommend if you like Filipino food.
