Bambú Tapas y Brasas

The staff were great. The food was phenomenal. The atmosphere was very relaxing. It was me and my bf's first Michelin star dining experience and one of the waitress was kind to take a photo of me and bf. I love the flan and the meat was cooked with perfect tenderness. It was a lovely experience!

We are on an escorted tour with Collette Tours and our tour manager Philip suggested this place. We arrived for dinner but the place was full with reservation, so I made reservations for the next night. We were seated right next to the kitchen. It was fun watching the chefs prepare the dishes. We felt like we were watching Top Chef. Great atmosphere. We had a variety of tapas, all excellent. We had the Pork skewer marinade Moorish style, the smoked Iberian top shoulder pastrami bun, grilled pork belly roll, the lamb "pincho" oaxaca, and white wine. The most interesting item was the lamb "pincho". We were told to eat it from the bottom. The top had a chocolate syrup. It was a combination of savory and sweet. We really liked it! I really wanted to try the braised scallop, but was pretty full by then. In fact, we gave some of the pork skewer to our friends who were at the next table. For tapas, it's on the pricey side, but the taste, quality, culinary experience and presentation outweighed the prices. The staff was friendly and helpful when we were looking through the menu. If we ever get back to Salamanca, I would definitely dine here again.

This was truly excellent. A diverse menu with dishes for all dietary requirements, each perfected to an incredibly high standard. The atmosphere was brilliant, not too loud, just the right volume. The staff were all lovely, and I was very grateful for them accommodating us by speaking to me and my family in both English and Spanish (however I must say I was pleased I was able to speak a good amount of Spanish and come up with some decent replies!). The food is very quick to come out. There wasn’t a single empty table in the place and they still manage to keep on top of things really well. Highlights for me were the Pork Belly, sirloin, and The truffled duck egg. We also had pretty much everything pork and it was all truly incredible. I think my favourite dishes were the pork dishes. Really highly recommend.

Bambu Tapas y Brasas is one of those places you remember long after the dinner is over. From the first bite, the food stands out for its quality, balance, and bold flavors. Everything we tried felt carefully thought through — perfectly cooked meats from the grill, creative tapas with great texture contrasts, and sauces that elevate each dish without overpowering it. The ingredients are fresh, the execution precise, and the presentation stylish yet unpretentious. The atmosphere is warm and relaxed, making it easy to enjoy the meal at a slow, comfortable pace. Service is attentive and professional, adding to the overall feeling of a well-run, confident restaurant that knows exactly what it’s doing. Bambu Tapas y Brasas delivers genuinely great food — modern, flavorful, and satisfying. A place we would gladly return to and confidently recommend to anyone who appreciates high-quality dining with character.

Excellent restaurant in Salamanca, everything I tried was nothing less than espectacular. A MUST try is the prawn & octopus chupito, the cod buñuelo, the pork chops, everything here is guaranteed to be out of this world. The service is top notch as well. Definitely one of the best restaurants I have been to. Keep it up!

Really wonderful meal here. Some really unique flavours mixed in with some classics Spanish dishes. The ibérico pork was the standout - genuinely sensational

What a treat! We tried the chef's tasting menu, and every course was a taste sensation. The staff were wonderful, making sure everything was well presented, making excellent recommendations, and working hard while keeping a relaxing atmosphere. Congratulations on an excellent menu and service. Our favourites were the mussels and the iberico pork. The house wines are well chosen to balance the flavours. It was one of the best meals we've ever had. Thank you, and we wish you a very successful 2025.

Had a delicious dinner here last night. Every member of the team there was fantastic. They were all very kind, attentive, and lovely and took time to explain the vegetarian options on the menu as well as to tell me about the desserts. I had the scallops (10/10, citrusy and the oil was delicious as well, dip your bread in it), patatas bravas (9/10, quite good, hugeee portion), the avocados (20/10, out of this world, would go back only to have this, so flavorful and fresh), tinto de verano (10/10 lovely), and for dessert, the cheesecake (10/10, one of the best cheesecakes I’ve ever had, so creamy and loved the flaky crust as well). Can highly recommend to vegetarians (but not vegans). Oh, and whoever was in charge of music last night, loved it! It was all 90s and 2000s hits and your girl enjoyed that thoroughly. Remember to reserve in advance. Thank you team 😊
