The Bamboo Club is a one-of-a-kind neighborhood restaurant & Tiki bar located in Long Beach, CA. The Bamboo Club serves a mix of both modern and classic century-old Tiki cocktails, alongside the weekend brunch, daily lunch and dinner, and late night menus featuring Polynesian-inspired and Asian-style dishes. With an interior designed by award-winning Bamboo Ben Bassham, The Bamboo Club reflects the laid-back sensibilities of tropical Tiki culture while welcoming one and all with extensive booth and bar seating, outdoor tented seating, and a private patio to escape from the everyday. While the concept maintains the Tiki culture at heart, it turns into a lively watering hole for Long Beach music fans after dinner hours, when local live musical performers and vinyl DJs take the stage and the crowd jams out to everything the local music scene has to offer. A Tiki bar reflecting the heart of and soul of Long Beach, The Bamboo Club is located at 3522 East Anaheim St. in Long Beach.

Fun atmosphere, good food & drinks, sticky tables. There was a big gap between when food arrived. People who ordered sandwiches got their food quickly, entrees arrived about 20 minutes later.

This was a very nice restaurant but we had a reservation at 7 pm and we got there earlier to go to the bar so they could start setting up a table there but they didn’t have us seated until 0730 but overall there’s a nice vibe and the bar area was amazing

First time our drinks were not consistent. Missing key ingredients like cinnamon on the Dr Bamboo and on the Zombie it was missing a key ingredient…. Maybe absinthe. Second round was like the drinks were made from a different bartender. Disappointing.

Booked almost a month ahead and requested a booth. When I arrived at the location, they couldn't find a reservation and ended seating me outside because their were no both available. The drinks were good, so there is that.

The drinks and food are amazing. Sometimes the drinks take a while, but on a packed Friday night, with complicated cocktail recipes, that only makes sense. I personally hate servers taking your order from a screen device, so that lack of personal connection was felt. Highly recommend the Slap and Tickle, Doctor Bamboo, and the Piña Verde. Watch out- the wings are spicy!

The service here was absolutely terrible. Our server did not check in once with us, I had to ask to put in our food order. When we ordered our appetizer with drinks it did not come out until we were done eating our meal. They forgot one of our appetizers and gave us the wrong drink.

This was not our first time here, but it always gets better and better! Made reservations for a party of 10 for my wife’s birthday, and they put us all at a great table on the patio! Service was fantastic (as usual), and the food and drinks were amazing! Our waitress was rad, and even bought my wife a birthday shot! Highly recommend, for date nights, parties, or just grabbing a great drink and food!

We requested a table indoors, and we were seated inside. However, the area was very odd, almost like an employee break room. We requested to move, so we had to go outside on the make shift patio. There were MANY flies and I was eaten alive by mosquitoes. Our food was fine, but not great. One person in our party did not care for his food. The egg on the Loco Moco was overcooked. Drinks were great—the Dr Bamboo was very strong and large. Almost like ordering 2 drinks for the price of one. The music got progressively louder, to the point that we were basically yelling at each other. This place would have been great for just a drink and/or only two of us, so we could have had a booth inside.

Nice decor great drinks , did not eat here so I can’t say how good the food is . No special affects go off on any of the drinks sort of a let down and the music vibe is not tiki , no need to hear anything other then tiki music . The only other music could be some surf style music let the none tiki people go to other places and get their groove on !

Steak and shrimp were not very good was cold and chewy, wings were cover in a thick gravy like wing sauce was also cold skinny margarita was good and honey blonde beer was good but it’s really hard to mess those up if I come back here it will be to eat fries and drink alcohol🫶

Great cocktails, food, and service. The decor and ambiance were good. The rap music was a mood killer and completely clashed with the whole tiki vibe. Apparently they have a juke box. Could change the selections available.

What a pleasant surprise! My wife, friends & I loved all the amazing cocktail options! They were a bit pricey but I know many of them take some work to make. My mother in law who doesn’t drink much had 3 cocktails, which is unheard of but that’s how much she enjoyed them. We loved that there were vegan options of classic “tiki” like dishes as well. We will definitely be back. We loved sitting in the patio area. Great for our large group!

Place was dirty. Tables and floors were sticky. Live band next door was very loud. Food was just ok. Inside was very dark. There was a ramp to the bathroom and several people tripped walking down the ramp. They should have better lighting on a walkway.

I should have heeded another review I read before going. The food was okay but the service was really bad. It took awhile to come out and both orders did not come together. Mine came first and the other came out about six minutes later. The excuse was there were only two cooks working!

Absolutely love to visit Tiki Bars and was excited to try this one. Drinks and food were great! Well done tiki decor. It was not super busy when we were in there, but the waitress was painfully slow and would disappear for long stretches and we had to flag down someone else at one point. We would have tried another round of drinks if not for that.

A tropical getaway in the middle of an urban city. Bamboo and carved tiki heads line the booths inside. There is a patio to dine out on, as well. All the wait staff don hawaiian style shirts and the drinks generous on the rum! Polynesian chicken and fish dishes and Hawaiian style mac for the cuisine. Very cool spot! Go for the strong mixed drinks and cool atmosphere!

The food takes me back to Hawaii. We took our moms to have some island food for Mother’s Day; all of our moms were blissfully filled with the breakfast sandwich, Loco Moco, or their Yogurt Parfait. However, the restaurant could have listed on OpenTable that their menu would be limited to a few items for their Mother’s Day brunch. We must return to sample other things like their wings or Thai tea-brined sandwiches on a different day.

Happy hour on a Monday is chill and when my drink order got lost in a shift change, they immediately comped it (despite me saying it wasn’t necessary). The burger was excellent and a great price. The tiki drinks are creative and aren’t all disgustingly sweet. I wish I could have tried more, but I was exhausted and needed to drive back to the hotel.
