    As always, our dining experience at the big bowl was stellar. Service was fast, friendly and efficient. The food was cooked and served quickly. Ingredients were fresh and delicious. Dinner was amazing. The one downside is the kitchen had the back door open and it was cold and every time they open the kitchen door the entire dining room became cold. Even after several requests, it was not fixed. Dinner was enjoyed in jacket and hat
