About the restaurant
Using the freshest and highest quality ingredients and starting from
scratch are the only ways to authentically prepare Asian cuisine.
At Big Bowl, we make our own curries and roast our own chilies
and spices, which are ground daily to prepare a variety of our
signature dishes. Our menu features Chinese favorites like Kung
Pao Chicken, Prime Beef & Broccoli, Sweet & Sour Pineapple
Shrimp, along with Thai specialties like Panang Curry Chicken, Vegetable & Tofu Pad
Thai and Red Hot Pepper Chicken Noodles. Whether its sweet or
spicy, rice or noodles, Chinese or Thai that you are craving, our
menu has it all.

Loved expanded menu options and wide range of gluten free entrees and appetizers. Service matched quality of food. Will travel back from downtown again as downtown location no longer offers gluten free options for diners with celiac.

The food was average. Actually, the honey crispy chicken was overcooked. The wait staff was attentive and friendly. Noise and ambiance was good.
