Bamboo Leaf

Went here for the first time tonight. We have been wanting t to try for so long. Super cute inside but small so it would not be great for larger parties. All of the food was absolutely delicious! Got the pad see ew & pad Thai. Vegetables and all other ingredients were super fresh - you could just tell. I also got the cucumber salad which was amazing!! We went on a Friday night so I was expecting some sort of wait for food/seating but we were seated right away. However, our order was not taken until probably 25-30 minutes after we were seated. And the food probably took another 25-30 minutes to get. Note that you may have to wait a while for your food so it might not be best to go super hungry as they only have one person taking orders for the whole restaurant (at least when we were there). Everything is made from scratch so the food was definitely worth the wait though! We will probably just order takeout when we want it again.

Best Thai food in the area! This is an authentic, friendly, family run small business and they go out of their way to make their customers happy. Their food is phenomenal and we are always greeted and treated like old friends. So glad they reopened indoor dining and I hope this place sticks around for a long time to come!

Best Thai food around, hands down. In light of current events, and everything the restaurant industry has faced, Bamboo Leaf has done a great job of continuing to offer consistently delicious food at reasonable prices. Extremely friendly staff and a great atmosphere inside. Not to mention, a great location. We can't eat Thai food anywhere else, nothing compares. We will continue to support this local business for sure.

I can't begin to express the shining gem that is Bamboo Leaf. A family ran Thai restaurant with so much more to offer other than absolutely outstanding food. They have stood not only the test of time, but have made it though the pandemic with grace and now hurdling over the obstacle of indoor dining. The food speaks for itself, it's packed full of flavor, fresh seasonal vegetables are always used and you can always taste the love and labor put into each and every dish. From the crispy tofu, to the panang curry right down to the basil fried rice, each one is bound to knock your socks off. Every single dish is worth every last penny, and I'd pay double if they asked! Now that indoor dining is back in full swing, we can finally enjoy the colorful and electric decor, the wide full windows to bask in the beach kissed sun and the smell of the kitchen hard at work. The staff may very well be even better than the food. Everyone is incredibly knowledgeable about each and every menu item, as well as dietary restrictions such as vegan dishes, gluten free ect. It's beautiful to see such a close team working together to bring people the jersey shores best Thai food. Anyone that stops by should feel very lucky to get to try some of these outstanding dishes and be in the presence of such great staff and chefs.

Party of two dining in on a Friday night. The table we were given was wobbly and in the entryway of the restaurant. The servers hovered behind us and bumped into me as I ate. It was definitely the worst table in the house. The appetizer (Rings - $15 calamari) came out quickly and was tasty. Unfortunately just a few minutes later our entrees came out leaving us no time to enjoy the app. The restaurant faces west and has large windows. As the sun set it shined directly into our faces for the duration of the meal. There were no shades or curtains to shield us. We were hot and uncomfortable the whole time. The servers are all very young and inexperienced. No one checked on us until we were nearly done and it was a drive by check in at best. Also, their attire was strange and not appropriate for the venue. Finally the prices are absurd especially if the experience is going to be as awful as it was. $27 for noodle entrees while holding onto a wobbly table, getting bumped into, squinting into the sunlight, being ignored by awkward servers and feeling rushed just isn't the vibe. I couldn't wait to get out of there. I really can't emphasize enough how unpleasant this dining experience was. The food IS delicious and that's the only thing this place has going for it although we won't be back to try it again.
