BAMBUU Asian Eatery Expanding to Gainesville

BAMBUU Asian Eatery, a delicious Chinese restaurant in Vero Beach, is getting ready to expand with a new location in Gainesville at 3606 SW Archer Rd.

The company is looking to open a new location in the former home of T-Mobile and, most recently, Hot Birdie’s Chicken, according to a recent plan review application submitted to the Florida Department of Business & Professional Regulation. A spokesperson from the company wasn’t able to provide an exact opening date but notes that the original location has been open for over one year and is a community favorite. The application is still processing.

Once approved, MDP Restaurant Group will expand the restaurant into a perfect location in the middle of Butler Plaza Central, Archer Square Center, and Butler Enterprises, three shopping centers in Southwest Gainesville. BAMBUU Asian Eatery blends old traditions from stand-out Chinese, Korean, and Japanese recipes and offers a new twist with healthier ingredients. The restaurant features a range of delicious meals, including vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options. Customers can expect delicious options, such as BAMBUU Bourbon Chicken, Kimchi Brussel Sprouts, Chinese New York-style BBQ Pork, and more.

“We combine fresh, quality ingredients to bring healthy, unique Asian Cuisine to our valued customers,” according to the company’s website. “Bamboo is a plant that always remains green, and just like the plant, we, too, keep up with the evolving culinary landscape to provide a unique dining experience. During a storm, bamboo bends but does not break. We also adapt to new challenges and demands. Once its roots are buried in the most difficult of soils, bamboo grows rapidly toward the sky. We, too, planted deep roots and are growing upwards.”
