Seeing the Bamboo Room open again,great surprise.Husband & I just went there 4 the Halloween bash on Fri,Oct. 27th.Had a great time in spite of a missing cocktail waitress w/our credit card.Bartenter was apologetic & weren't charged 4 1st round of drinks & rec'd card back at the end of the night.Went 2 another bartenter who made the drinks better & serviced us well.Prices are a bit higher than they use to be,not 2 excited about that.Missing alot of tables & chairs in downstairs section which is now set up w/couches 4 reserved people buying expensive bottle service only which they also already have those booths around the dance floor 4 those people.Have only a few tables left in that section,but in desperate need of more table & chairs 4 singles or just couples who go there not needing bottle service but would like 2 sit down after dancing.Asked 4 owners/manager of club & he did come 2 table we sat at which we felt was considerate & Good PR.Have 2 come early,between 8-10pm 2 get a table & not be overcharged 4 getting into the club. Owner gave us a rarely given I'm sure,reserved card 4 our table because we've been long time Bamboo Room attenders in Lombard & Schamburg in past years w/yr passes.BUT beware of those people who ignore RESERVED signs,& sit at your table & take it over while you're gone dancing.How RUDE! If U were 1of them people,try being more considerate & think of how U would have felt if it had been done to U! Missed the restaurant but Loved the Pizza booth set up just inside the door.Good combination of crowd aging from the 21-30 hot girls & guys mostly,also some 30-40yrs & us along w/a few others between the 40-50yrs old who still like 2 dance along w/any crowd regardless of age.(by the way I don't look my age so I fit in) Love Marge who attends the bathroom downstairs,known her for years.Would have loved 2 give it 5 but needs a little more tweeking! Will try it again and see how it improves as it progresses.
Pros: Dancing, music
Cons: Service, pricing, seating
