Inchin’s Bamboo Garden

It was a 2 hr drive from TO to get to Irvine to eat at Inchin Bamboo. Well worth the drive as the indo Chinese food was yummy . Tried the lat mai paneer, Hakka noodles , burnt garlic friend rice and spicy mango chicken 😁

I don't know why this place doesn't have more stars for the rating. Food and portion size are both really good! All the food comes piping hot and the portion sizes are massive! Definitely recommend the place. All the entries come with rice on the side (good amount of rice) so think about that when ordering. Veg Hakka noodles was so light and flavorful and had a really nice taste of its own without any side dish needed! Chili Vegetables were actually VERY spicy! Don't get me wrong, I actually love spicy food and found the chili chicken (which was supposed to be spicy) a good dish. But this dish was actually hella spicy! Definitely take the rice on the side or some fried rice or haka noodles to neutralize the taste. Vegetables were cooked perfectly tender and the sauce was nice as well. Just very spicy. Loved the Chili Chicken (dry). Chicken is cooked well, not too much batter coating outside the actual pieces or anything like that. Spice level was perfect and reminded me of Chili Chicken I had at an Indo-Chinese restaurant in India. Only downside is that there were a lot of onions in the plate to fill up space. I would have appreciated more chicken in there. Chicken Manchurian was also very nice. Not super sweet, not salty, not tangy. Just a very good flavor. Good amount of gravy in there as well, and went nicely with the Hakka noodles. Husband got the Mango Lassi and it was very thick and strong mango flavor and actually super nice. I had a hard time stopping myself from finishing it up.

As a South Asian who has traveled to India o can vouch that this place is authentic! My favorite food is Indo-Chinese and outside of India it is difficult to find good places. My favorite food is Cauliflower Manchurian and this place did not disappoint! I felt like I was 12 eating in India, the flavors were on point. My daughter lived the authentic Hakka Noodles. This is now her favorite place, no more Panda Express. Plus she ate all of the vegetables in the noodles 😃 My son wouldn’t try anything new so he had the chicken nuggets with fries which were also delicious. I ordered my husband the Chicken Butter Masala which was different then expected. Full of flavor but not as thick as we would expect. I am going to order him the Thai Red Curry next go. We were so bummed there weren’t any leftovers 😔 This will be our go to for eating out. Also everything was so fresh like we made it at home😁

Great food with a upscale atmosphere at a quick service price. This national chain feels like a locally owned diamond in the rough. You will not be disappointed, especially if you are looking for a variety of apps, salads, entres, and desserts. There's a touch of spice throughtout the menu. Full service bar, great decor, attentive service. The food will bring you back time and time again. Irvine needed this place!

Excellent Indian/Chinese food. Been to the one in Dallas and Austin. The location is best one. Ordered the spring salt and pepper and the spicy shrimp. Both of them cooked to perfection. The spicy shrimp was a bit spicy but enjoyable. Will be going back.

Their lunch combo deal is good for the price. However, I wouldn’t call it authentic indo-Chinese food. If you’re looking to explore new cuisines you should check it out but don’t go there with an expectation that you’d get the indo-Chinese flavors that North India has.

One word to describe this spot; LEGIT! The only REAL IndoChinese restaurant in SoCal. They offer a variety of dishes beyond just indo Chinese. A must visit spot. Drinks are very creative. Servers are GREAT! Outside patio sitting is also available. SouthernSpice is next to them. They serve southindian and north Indian food. Looks like they share a passage and may have the same owner.
