Read More On Citysearch Raylene55 4/2/2010 - Bar service extremly slowWe attended a a happy hour event with about 200 people. There were only 2 staff at the bar. The service was extremely slow. It took so long just to get a drink. Poor planning of the location not to have enough staff. They lost a lot of business because of this and the people in attendance were not very pleased.

There's a live band and Mega does a live broadcast as well. There is also a bottle service giveaway from the DJ! Good drinks and REALLY friendly staff. I don't know what that other post saying rude staff was all about because that was very far from our experience there.
Read More On Citysearch Rob1980 12/4/2009 - RUDEST STAFF EVERThis place has good music and its clean, but the service is awful. The bouncers are overgrown ignorant bullies who think they own the place. They should protect the safety ansecurity of the place, NOT harmcustomers who are trying to have a good ti me. I feel sorry for the owner who has these people giving the place a bad name. Those people have downgraded BAM BOU.

I really liked this place! We went for Latin night and they had a great Unplugged happy hour with good drink specials! Staff was awesome, all very nice, not stuck up like a lot of places. They have valet on the roof but you can park for free which is always a bonus.

Read More On Citysearch rebelcougar2005 9/27/2009 - Be ready to drop some changeI was looking to go to a nice upscale lounge (which it is), but was very disappointed to find out that the virtually all of their seating is bottle service only. Of course you only find this out after paying the cover charge. While bottle service might be great for a party of 10, it is a bit much for a couple to enjoy. By the way this is Houston, not NYC. Don't try to be pretentious. The onl...

We had a really awesome time until one of the couples arriving late was denied access... Then after speaking with the manager they let the couple in and soon after someone tried to pick a fight on the guy... so overall the crowd was great after 11.. bartenders were really nice didn't have to wait too long to order drinks like most places.... restrooms were cle...

Read More On Citysearch lo12345 12/29/2008 - WOWMy girls and I were looking for somewhere to go on saturday night that we had not been before. So we called a a couple of friends and they suggested Bam Bou, they said to make sure to go early since it was a busy night. We got there about 10 and was treated to live entertainment which was awesome. We decided to get some drinks, being indecisive as usual we told the bartender we didn't know what w...
Read More On Citysearch Catsmeow58 10/21/2008 - Great Atmosphere, Nice Crowd!On a night out with my girlfriends, we decided to go to BamBou on a Saturday Night. The night started off easy with an incredible acoustic presentation featuring a variety of rythms; then the DJ kicked off the party with a really cool tropical house mix. Having a reservation made our lives so much easier, because when we got to the club there was a big crowd waiting... best advice get there early...
Read More On Citysearch houstonsocialite 10/20/2008 - Every night a different partyI love bouncing around to different spots and was amazed in the variety of entertainment this place had on different nights. I first experienced this joint on a Saturday Night with my girlfriend who is Latin and wanted to do the Latin thing. For the first time in my partying career,...we arrived early..I mean real early...9:45ish. The night started off with a live acoustic set. Then it procee...
Read More On Citysearch clubhopa 10/16/2008 - Best Latin Nights on Saturdays!!!Ya, Bambou may be selective on its clientele at the door but once you are in the wait will be worth it , beautiful people !! ... amazing latin music to dance (dance floor a bit crowded but that's ok) .... the bar tenders are quite nice, especially one called Loni (don't know how it spells), always smiling always suggesting new drinks, LOVE HIM! ....
Read More On Citysearch elizf 10/16/2008 - Great place to chill on Fridays, two outside bars for smokers !!....Great place to get drinks after dinner in Rice Village .... nice music, not too crowded, friendly staff .... I've heard that Saturdays is packed but Fridays is full but enough space to sit and dance anywhere, not just the dance floor ... actually, the staff will encourage you to do so in your tables ... oh, and have two outside bars so you can smoke all you want and get drinks all night long!!
Read More On Citysearch marier 10/16/2008 - Got to know how to play....It seems that the negative comments about Bambou are from those who obviously do not know how to play the game or appreciate a real club that doesn't go by Houston's rules. I first went on a Friday when they where hosting the Barstool party and had a blast! i had my doubts about the place because it used to be the Gatsby which I hated. This new Gatsby of sorts is anything but. I called in for...
Read More On Citysearch Rockstar23 9/4/2008 - WORST CLUB EVER!!!After reading all the reviews, it made me feel better that I wasn't the only one who had a bad expereince. I had heard that the club was good on sat nights, so my friend and I decided to try it out. Needless to say, I never even got into the club at all that night. My friend was already inside and I was waiting in line. Just like the previous reviews said: unless your VIP, know someone there, y...
Read More On Citysearch laura200182 8/31/2008 - It's not worth it...Went to the club on a Friday night for a girls night out.. One of the girls new someone who was promoting or something.. Long story short we needed 10girls to get in VIP and no cover and a free bottle and reserve area.. We all arrived together half of the girls went in then the other half went in later.. Well b/c the first half all had their tatas hanging out got in no prob. the others who were ...

I was truly looking forward to going here for a friend's b-day party, but little did i know what i was going to get into. First, we waited in line for about 20-30 minutes. The theme at this lame place seemed to be unless you had a RESERVED table or slipped a $50 dollar bill to THE RUDEST BOUNCERS IN HOUSTON ( for lack of a better word), You are not getting into this place...
Read More On Citysearch ciclista 8/24/2008 - Waste of TimeMy girlfriend and I decided to go there on a Saturday night. We walked up to the door and they would not let us in which I don't understand. There were about 10-15 people waiting to get inside. Other than that the entire area including the parking lot was dead. I am the type who will not wait in line and play this game unless the club was truly busy. They were not busy at all. A few people ...
Read More On Citysearch max222 8/12/2008 - Selective crowdI had heard this place was really good on Saturday night(latin night), so I decided to check it out. I went with two of my girl friends and we never made it in. After waiting in line for about a good 25 minutes, we decided to leave. They either want you to buy a bottle, or wait in line. We were not impressed at all the selectiveness and discrimination that was going on while we were waiting in l...
