I love Bolay! Everything is fresh and gluten free. The food is not salty or over spiced. The price is good for the amount that's served and the employees are polite. I'm hoping that they will open a Bolay in Boynton Beach real soon! read more

We arrived at the tail end of the lunch rush. The staff were very pleasant and accommodating. However the food was lukewarm and quite bland. It appeared to be a healthy alternative to the typical American offerings but the presentation, temp, lack of flavor and ambiance have taken it off my future lunch stop. read more

This restaurant opened up in the Polo Shops Shopping Center and I'm certainly glad that it did! The food is healthy as well as tasty. You get lots of choices for your salad. The base , the veggies, the proteins, add-ons and toppings. There were four in our group and each of us had different and delicious choices! See my attached pictures. It is very casual...better than fast food because you eat with real plates as opposed to paper and silverware as opposed to plastic. Just the cups are not glass, but plastic. Straws are plastic as well for those of you who are eco-friendly. The eating area is nicely decorated. The music is contemporary and on the loud side, but at least you can hold a conversation. Serve was even faster than fast-food. I certainly will return. Great new concept! read more

The first time I went to Bolay it was at this location. Imagine a chicken wing, sushi & pizza guy coming in for some Moroccan Basmati Rice, Lemon Chicken with Watermelon Lemon infused water. It was actually my wife that put me onto this madness. I was hooked ever since... and then when they revamped their Ahi Poke Tuna to actually have true robust Poke/Pokke flavor, I was losing my mind. I was seeing what they were speaking and hearing what they saw... do you see what I mean? lol Anyway, Bolay has fresh, bold and healthy choices so you can make a choice of health for you! Don't just have a bowl... have a Bolay! read more

Great service in the restaurant and for take away! Handles out entire office with every meal labeled Great healthy lunch and we'll continue to be back again and again! read more

I have had this place bookmarked for a while, and I am happy I finally checked it out! These type of "build-your-own" bowl/salad restaurants are my favorite because I find they offer healthy choices and the meals are filling. I ordered a small bowl with the "Kale Yeah" base, Brussel sprouts, broccoli, and the steak. The kale base was delicious-- fresh and crunchy. The veggies were seasoned nicely, and I was pleasantly surprised that the steak was extremely tender! Definitely worth the up charge. I wish they would open up a Bolay in East Boca closer to where I live. In the meanwhile, I will definitely be back! read more

Bolay - New American Near Me - Boca Raton, Florida

I understand that when arriving an hour before closing you get the sub-par leftovers of the day... regardless, the food was disappointing - the noodles were half cooked, broccoli burnt and tofu soggy. The server had such an attitude as if our presence was making him have to make fresh food that came directly from his paycheck. HOWEVER, what would have been great would be NOT having to listen to the line servers talk about blowjobs and "Hawk Tuah" girl as I tried to pay for my family's meal. (The cashier had no part in the conversation and was very kind). at a loss for words and will never return to this location. read more

The veggies are delicious and the staff helpful. Go with the green sauce and always the noodles! But, does anyone care the air fresheners from the restrooms can be smelled in the dining area? It feels like I'm eating in a dirty disgusting gas station John. read more

Great bowls! I used to love going to chipotle but they been cheapy cheapy with my serving sizes. Bolay has good sizes and all the food seem with less condiments and more healthy. I suggest this restaurant if you want a healthy meal. read more

Well this was a first for me: First time at an UYE event, first time in Boca Raton, and first time at Bolay. Bolay is a casual restaurant that caters and offers a selection of healthy items of your choice. After you decided what size bowl you want, you work your way down the line telling the employees behind the counter your choice of bases, veggies, proteins, add-ons, and sauce; and watch them place the items into the bowl. Bolay also offers fountain drinks, fresh brewed teas & juices, bottled & sparkled water, beer & wine, and cookies. The prices are moderate, the menu is 100% gluten, and you have the option to order online. Being my first time here, I had a small bowl with Moroccan basmati rice (base), ginger broccoli and roasted Brussel sprouts (veggies), BBQ chicken (protein), parmesan cheese (add-on), and topped with carrot ginger (sauce). I was very skeptical about the combination at first, but after the first bite, I was very surprised on the flavor and how well each item complemented each other. Will definitely try this place again, but a little more closer to home read more

I am a Bolay fan, and this location does not disappoint! Tucked away on Military, it's easy to find with ample parking. Certainly not empty on a weeknight, there was still plenty of tables left for a group of friends to gather. Bolay's system makes ordering and selecting a bowl a breeze; signage and information is clear and easy to use. I made a delicious-as-always bowl that included sweet and savory flavors. I chose steak and tofu, a personal favorite combo for an ex-vegetarian. I love that the very nice person who ladled on the spicy Thai sauce asked if I wanted more, to which I answered an enthusiastic, "Yes!" I tried one of Bolay's cold pressed juices, the Hawaiian Healer: pineapple ginger. The entire time I sipped it, I kept thinking, "this tastes watered down." Lo and behold, the ingredients are Pineapple, Water, Ginger. I felt slightly cheated, as adding water isn't what I expect in a juicing experience. Watering down a juice seems like false advertising to me! I'll stick with the lovely selection of teas next time. It's lovely to leave Bolay with lunch for tomorrow (in a guilt-lessening paper bowl) and a free Yelp-check-in you-wouldn't-believe-it's-gluten-free chocolate-chip cookie for the road. read more

After I took care of business at Chase bank next door, even though it was only 11am, I decided to come here and grab lunch to take back to the office with me. I have not heard about this place before so I didn't know what to order. But the food all looked very delicious on the counter so I guess I can't really go wrong. This place reminds me of Chipotle where you would walk up to the counter and tell the staff what you wanted in your bowl. For my visit I ordered their small plate which the portion was perfect for my appetite. I started with white rice, then I picked two vegetables (my wife wold be very proud of me) follow by pork as my protein. Then I added some spicy Thai sauce on top to finish. The food was very tasty and fresh. I love the Thai spicy sauce because it has a very nice kick to it but does not burn your tongue. Pork was tender and delicious. It was a nice bite when I combined the pork, veges and rice together. Overall it was a very nice meal. The price was very reasonable and the food was super healthy and delicious. I'll definitely be back again for lunch. read more

Was pleasantly surprised. Food was fresh and delicious. Staff was very friendly. Will be back on my next trip to Boca

Fast casual and healthy! Yes, please! It's always a challenge to try to eat heathy when on vacay mode but cilantro noodles & sweet potatoe noodles? Yum! I tried the Baja Bowl instead of building my own. I wanted to see what their "pre-set" combos were like. I was not disappointed! It's made with Cilantro Noodles, Moroccan Basmati Rice, Ginger Broccoli, Lemon Chicken, Avocado and Cilantro Pesto Sauce. Each bite made my mouth smile. Then again, anything with avocado just makes me happy. The only thing I would have done differently is maybe switch out the rice base for the Golden Kale Salad. Coulda. Woulda. Shoulda. Oh well, next time! Can you open a location in Jacksonville, FL? read more

Ordered lunch here last week. Their online items seemed limited, so I called in to see what they really had available. Made my order over the phone and had someone pickup for me.

Fresh. Healthy. Good options. Gluten free awesome. Excellent quantity. Positive messages on containers.

Tasty food and reasonable portions. The staff has always been friendly and the indoor space is clean.

Holy Bolay!!! I finally found a spot for lunch that let me choose everything I could possibly want for lunch and eat totally guilt free!!! Although most days I try to bring my lunch to work to eat healthy, I would love to have the opportunity to find a place that is quick, healthy and most of all had variety and flavor of the foods I love to eat. Well, Bolay has the answer and i'm coming back. When I entered, I saw a fairly large line of people waiting to put their "Bols" together and thought that I may have a pretty long wait. I was wrong as I got in line and started flashing my camera for pics, before I knew it I was at the counter and wasn't even ready to get the concept yet, but learned pretty quickly what to do. Protein is the key to any good diet and weight loss and what I loved is that you can choose between several healthy and tasty proteins; Lemon Chicken, BBQ Chicken, Pork Tenderloin, Steak, Tuna and for Vegans, Miso Glazed Tofu. There are two sizes of Bols, a Small Bol which you can pick a protein of your choice and add a Base such as Kale, Quinoa, Black Rice and others, then add a Veggie, a Topping and a Sauce. If you want a large bowl, you can chose 2 portions of each. There are also recommended Bols by the Chef that keeps the brain resting and they do it for you. Today I decided I wanted a SMALL BOWL, but wanted an extra protein portion, no problem for an extra $3.00 over the $7.99 price. I saw those portions being served in line in front of me and by the time I was done with a Quinoa Base, Lemon Chicken, BBQ Chicken as my second protein, Ginger Broccoli and Fresh Avocado as my topping, just looking at it made me hungry. I ordered a drink which is an assortment of "help yourself" healthy tea drinks, and I was on my way. OH!!! There's more!!! When I checked in on YELP, I had an offer for a free Immunity Spark, so I picked up a Pineapple and Ginger Spark, to boost my immune system. Bolay definitely added FLAVOR to HEALTHY because my meal was delicious. Being an avid Avocado lover, the Avocado topping gave this Bol what I needed on top of the flavorful chicken dishes and semi charred tasting Broccoli. The Broccoli was NOT your boring old steamed broccoli. and I do not know if it was even charred, but it had that charred taste to it. Chef's secret? Was it the Ginger? Aaahhh, that's it. So, all this and healthy, I walked out for &13.37 plus tip minus the guilt. So happy I can get here quick, in and out quick and now that I know the concept, mix it up a bit next time I come. Yes, there is a Chef that creates all this and he hit it right on the head for a healthy flavorful meal of my choice. There is an option to take out by ordering on line in advance as they have a SEPARATE pick up cashier to speed things up, just order your Bol and go immediately there and get your lunch. Also, plenty of outdoor seating. For those not near Boca, there are 4 other locations in South Florida: Wellington, P.B. Gardens, Pembroke Pines and WPB. See you soon Bolay!!! read more

Highlight: This a fusion place with a rice bowl like line that reminded me of Chipotle (proteins, veggies, base, sauce) that strives for a clean and healthy vibe. The food is fresh, well flavored and the interior feels bright, tropical, and healthy. For 7.50$ one can get the small (one protein, one veggie, one base) and for 9.75$ one can get the large (two proteins, two veggies,and 2 bases). For those who want flavors that are at once rich, fresh, and yet fulfilling- this is a great place to go if your taste buds are slightly dulled by unilateral cuisine places (think pei Wei meets chipotle meets upscale healthy). Bases- I have always gotten the quinoa, forbidden rice, and basmati rice since I like the foods to be uniform in warmth. There is the option of cold cilantro noodles which I have not tried yet but that does sound refreshing. The quinoa adds a nice nutty crunch to your meal for those who want more fibers and more crunch to their dish. There is also the forbidden rice, a black rice that has the texture of brown rice but has the rich black color that screams antioxidants and color to your dish. The basmati rice is not as fluffy as the traditional stuff found in Indian restaurants- it reminded me of American rice that one usually finds in Tex Mex Places. I highly recommend the quinoa and forbidden rice for those who want the highest concentration in nutrients, flavor, and texture. There is also salad base and I think the sweet potato mash. Proteins- The ones that are included in the 9.99 option include the tofu, lemon chicken, bbq chicken, and the pork tenderloin. I have tried all but the pork tenderloin- personally i think two kinds of meats are alittle too heavy for one dish and mixing of meats was a strange concept to me, so I've always gotten the tofu with one other meat. I think the barbecue chicken has a richer flavor but my guess is that the lemon chicken is healthier due to less calories and sauce. The tofu is lightly fried- adds a nice silken protein texture to the dish if you like a more balanced taste in my opinion. Vegetables- You have the options of ginger brussel sprouts, ginger broccoli, the cauliflower, the mushrooms, and the sweet potatoes. I like the cauliflower and the Brussels sprouts for their robust flavors and texture to the dish. I have yet to have the mushrooms and the broccoli but brussel sprouts cooked in ginger always adds a nice spice edge to any dish and cauliflower is a soothing flavor that adds a nice springy crunch to any dish. Toppings- There is mint tomatoes and the asian herbs- I always went with the asian herbs since I like the color and don't like the juicy burst of tomatoes in my dish since it is harder to make the tomatoes more uniform in a dish. Your sauces include basil pesto, thai, and something else. I personally think the thai is a more flavorful sauce that goes better with this asian edged overall cuisine but the basil pesto does give a nice tang to your dish if you want something that is more Western based. read more

I had been fortunate enough to try the Bolay in Pembroke prior to opening, but never got up to the Boca location until recently. Fortunately, I was able to make it happen. Right off the bat I'm going to say I love this place, I have some criticisms for it, but overall I really do like it here. I just wanted to get that out of the way and clear my conscious. Bolay is a fast casual "healthy" alternative those places like Chipotle. The concept is simple: pick a base (or two) , some veggies, protein, and any cheese or sauce. Super simple, and I will say, delicious too- especially the steak (which is an add on of $2). So part of my issue is. When I came here I was doing Whole30 which is a super strict paleo diet. Now, my struggle here was (as opposed to Beehive) is that a lot of their protein was tossed in some type of sauce. Now, I'm not saying it's bad that it's tossed in sauce, but it is. To me, coming to a place to eat healthier I guess I would prefer to put the sauce on myself that what I can manage it where as move items at Beehive come as is and have no sauce in them. I got the grilled steak and I did end up with the lemon chicken which was good. I just took as risk assuming it would be ok for my diet. And for their beverages they only have iced tea. I wish they had more unsweetened flavors. There is only one (the pineapple) which is unsweetened the rest are sweetened or sweetened with Stevia. Again, I'm looking at this as a health alternative so I want it to be as healthy as possible. Like I said I really do like it here and will definitely come back. The portions are a great size especially for the price you pay for meal. Don't forget to check in for the free juice shot which is pineapple and ginger when I was there. I just get picky when places are healthy alternatives only because I want them to be as healthy as possible. read more

I love bolay the food is fresh as you'll find in a "fast food" type of place and the choices are original and healthy-ish. This location has crappy parking, with or without the construction that's happening. Bolay is pricey for fast food, but it's worth the extra couple of bucks not to feel like falling asleep in sweatpants afterwards. The cookies are fire. You're eating a healthier choice, so treat yourself. Pick one that's still mushy, those are the best ones. Thanks to the staff for getting me in and out fast on my lunch break read more

Bolay has steadily fallen from grace over the years. I used to eat here 3 or 4 times a week, now I scamper by every month or so to find they continue to find a way to disappoint. The lack of quality controls is what stands out most: the veggies and bases (rice) tend to be undercooked often and lacking flavor, as does the tofu protein option. The prices keep going up and they have recently restructured the bowl options to diminish consumer value. Staff used to appear thrilled to work, now they appear to be frustrated. Very sad downfall for a once great chipotle-styled, healthy bowl alternative. read more

Healthy and tasty options for lunch and dinner. A clean facility with fresh, well made ingredients. It's a quick line service style restaurant. They use recycled materials which is great. The staff is super friendly and helpful. As it was my first time in, I needed to process all the items I could choose from and the girl was very patient. She offered samples of the things I wasn't sure about. The small bowls are $7.95 and you chose 1 base 1 veggie and 1 protein. But the large is $9.95 for 2 bases 2 veggies and 2 proteins. For $2 more you get double the food! And you can make a whole other meal out of it cause it's a gigantic bowl. I opted for the large. The bases I chose were black forbidden rice and Peruvian quinoa. I wasn't too keen on the cold and slightly sour tasting quinoa but the black rice was delicious and fragrant. For veggies I got the Cajun sweet potatoes and Balsamic mushrooms. Don't worry about the Cajun, it wasn't spicy at all even for someone who can't take spice at all. For proteins I got BBQ chicken and the ahi tuna for $2 extra. The chicken was tender. The tuna was a bit bland and dull for me. I've had better marinated tuna at other places. Overall it was very good and all the ingredients were fresh and kept hot. They were out of juice shots for the check in offer but they offered me a dessert instead. It was very accommodating. read more

I'm really torn about Bolay. It's ok, overall, for a quick bite. Definitely better than most fast food options. You can find options here if you're vegetarian which is nice. I just feel this is one of those fake healthy places. Probably better than McDonald's, but honestly, who knows? There could be a ton of fat or sodium in this, I just don't know. There's no nutritional info available at all. Also, it's ridiculously overpriced for what it is. I never leave thinking "yum". Not really a fan of these " throw a bunch of things in a bowl" places. read more

Some AMAZING food! A friend recommended this place for an office lunch. I was apprehensive at first as some of the pictures looked like mostly raw sushi. Glad I stepped outside ny comfort zone. The set up is very similar to Chipotle, but with entirely different options.
