What People Are Saying About Big Bowl

The Owner

Big Bowl

Owner

Big Bowl is a pioneering Asian restaurant, vibrant in design and cuisine, offering the latest in authentic Chinese and Thai food. Using market-fresh ingredients, Big Bowl's signatures include "dim-sum sized" appetizers, pad Thai, seafood, some truly hot and spicy food, and fresh made ginger ale. Big Bowl believes that the origin of your food says a lot about the quality and flavor, that's why Big Bowl buys seasonal produce from local framers and only serves heirloom pork and all natural, antibiotic free chicken that's raised on family farms. Don't forget Big Bowl when planning a festive occasion. Big Bowl brings both ingredients for any good party, great food and great surroundings. True Chinese and Thai food can be enjoyed at four Big Bowl Locations-one at Cedar and Rush, another at Ohio and State and one in Lincolnshire and Schaumburg. Big Bowl- For Fresh Chinese and Thai!

Intimate lighting and an open, casual atmosphere draw diners of all ages to this friendly Asian spot. Customers design their own stir-fry from a wide selection of veggies, meats and sauces, then wait while it's cooked and delivered to their table. The lengthy menu also offers a variety of Thai, Cantonese and Szechuan items, from shrimp rolls and teriyaki chicken to kung pao beef served with roasted peanuts.

I ate here the other day. I got this noodle with peanuts and chicken. It was spicy! I loved it. I also ordered their homemade ginger ale. That was good stuff. I recommend it. The service was a little slow but it was worth it.

Very Busy. Great food, huge servings. Kind of expensive for asian style food, but it is Chicago. It's very nice inside, and the staff is kind. I would say you have to experience Big Bowl at least once!
