I'm in town from Arizona and my son recommended this restaurant and WOW !
The best Asian food I've EVER had, by far.
The Teriyaki Salmon paired with the Sauvignon Blanc was outstanding with great flavors and a huge quantity. The sauce with scallions and onions was so good, and complimented the rice perfectly.
Server and Bartender Sal was incredible. Fantastic service and a nice person.
This restaurant is highly recommended !

My wife and I had a nice lunch at the Big Bowl! The restaurant feels upscale, yet it also is relaxed. There is a full bar, and the restaurant is deceivingly large! I will say, the restaurant lacks natural light so it feels like nighttime no matter what time you go (that isn't a big deal to me). It does make for a nice date night spot! The food was very good, and the portion for the lunch special was generous. I was very pleased with the experience and would definitely come back for dinner!
I haven’t been to Big Bowl in a long time. I must say this visit was a bit disappointing. Pros: food was hot, and there was a quick turn around time from the time we ordered until the time we received our food. The pomegranate ginger ale is still delicious. Very refreshing. If you like freshly made ginger ale, this drink is a must try. I have no complaints about service. Cons: They now charge a surcharge. It was completely unexpected. I don’t remember seeing any mention of it on the menu. I noticed it on the bill. Surcharges automatically applied to the bill is a red flag and a bad business practice. I understand rising costs, but customers bear the brunt of these costs. Transparency is key. At least apprise me ahead of time or leave space on the receipt to allow me to accept it or not. Charging it and expecting the customer to dispute it is just poor customer service. It’s not convenient for the customer. The convenience is for the restaurant, especially when people don’t bother to dispute it or ask to have it removed. Another con is the selection for the kid’s menu. My son is pescatarian. He could only order the buttered noodles. Trust me, this dish sounds better than it tastes. Literally, wet noodles no sauce. Lastly, my pad Thai was NOT good. I couldn’t taste the pasta only beansprouts. Lacking in flavor. Appetizers were decent. I went during happy hour and paid 50 bucks for one adult, 1 kid’s meal, and two appetizers. I appreciate the happy hour menu and would recommend ordering from that menu. The appetizers were better than our meals.
I have always been a fan of Lettuce Entertain You restaurants. Big Bowl was consistent with my expectations for this chain of eating establishments. The food is good and the service is attentive. I will definitely be a repeat customer.
Been a while since I was at Big Bowl since our last experience was not too good. We decided to give them another try. Went on a Sunday for a late lunch. It was not too crowded and we were seated immediately.
Last time we did the Stir Fry "Do it Yourself" Bowl so this time we decided to order off the menu. We would totally recommend doing this. Their menu is huge plus they have a Gluten Free menu!
Started with a Sapporo Draft Beer and a Pomegranate Sangria. Tasty drinks but prices are a little high in my opinion.
My wife had the Gluten Free Beef and Broccoli and I had the Teriyaki Shrimp Fried Rice. Portions are huge and the meals came out hot and both were very flavorful.
Plenty of parking available.

Call them butter because this restraunt is on a roll! Food, tasty, drinks, tasty, appetizers, tasty, that moist warm supple tuna, tasty. Actually the potstickers were only okay, the ahi tuna bowl was also touch too spicy. Overall a wonderful spread, good job guys.
It was really crowded when I arrived one evening after 6 pm. But the 2 of us were lucky enough to get a set at the bar. The drinks were great and nicely portioned. I'd never tried Thai food, but the chicken potstickers were great!
I really enjoyed the atmosphere of this restaurant keeping it calm and quietly suspenseful for your food to come. I got the Cashew Chicken which I thought was astonishly amazing. My favorite item on this menu is the spicy peanut noodles. It’s a great appetizer to have before your big meal.
