    Round 1

    I've came to this location on two different occasions and I loved every bit of it. The food is well seasoned and has so many options from seafood to chicken beef egg being added with the fried rice and noodles. I love getting the sushi and bulgogi! Service is great and fast , sometimes there is a wait when it gets busy. The Bar is open and i haven't tried any drinks yet but one of my newer favorite all you can eat spots

    One of my life long BFF's just so happens to be Asian and when she said, Spence, let's meet up at the new Asian all-you-can eat spot Hungry Bowl, you know I said yes. She raved about her two prior experiences so this was a no brainer. Formally TGIFridays, the owners did a remarkable renovation job to where you'd never believe this used to be a Friday's! Unlike your typical Korean BBQ, Hungry Bowl does it a bit different. Similar to your normal Korean BBQ you order on a IPad, however, they cook your selections for you and serve them hot and ready to eat. If you like the traditional way of cooking the food yourself, this place may not be for you. My friend may be small in stature but man she can eat.. Lol! She ordered a little bit of everything. We had several sushi selections, Ahi Tuna, grilled shrimp, calamari, shrimp tempora, BBQ salmon and she had a noodle entrée. I'm sure I'm leaving something out but I know I left fat and happy. Everything was delicious! I especially loved sushi and the Korean BBQ. The (short ribs and beef Bolognese) were finger licking good! PS.. You get this elaborate experience for only $30pp. Very hard to believe but it's true! Soon, alcohol will be served which will make fun times even funner!!

    We went early on a Saturday afternoon. We tried going in the past but the wait was over an hour and I'm not that pressed to wait for food especially when I was hangry at the time. Food was fresh Place was clean Servers visited often to refill drinks and to check in on you. You order extra food items on the iPad that's at your table. Pay close attention to note on the table. There is a charge for leftovers/take out AND even if you don't want to take the leftovers there might be a charge for excessive food waste. We took our leftovers and was charged a little over $8. That's cool because it was a whole meal once I combined my food with my husband's in the container. The young lady mentioned the additional fee: 8.99 per pound. Lucky for me I read the note beforehand so I wasn't surprised. Security was posted up inside the restaurant at the front door. I believe that security is there because people must get rowdy when the fee is mentioned. I have never seen security in a restaurant at 12pm. Needless to say, I came. I ate. It was delicious BUT I never hafta come back here again. Ever.

    We came to Hungry Bowl in Bowie for my wife's birthday dinner, and I'll say this right away, the Mongolian grill is the star of this place. There are a lot of options when building your bowl. Beef, chicken, shrimp, pork belly, onions, green onions, green peppers, mushrooms, and plenty more. You choose your base like lo mein, udon, rice noodles, white rice, brown rice, or fried rice and build it exactly how you want it. If you like customizing your food, this is definitely your type of spot. It's $29.99 for all you can eat and everything is included. We definitely left satisfied. If you come hungry and plan to try a little of everything, it feels worth it. Be prepared to wait. We had about a 1.5 hour wait and the place was packed. Luckily, it slowed down around the time we were seated, so it felt more manageable once we got inside. The atmosphere is loud and fun. It works for a date night, but it's also perfect for a big group. It's more lively than intimate. For sushi, we ordered the Naruto roll and it was really good. It tasted fresh and clean. The short ribs were decent, and the garlic chicken was solid, but I could have done without them. The Mongolian grill easily carried the experience for me. One thing I was not a fan of is how you leave your bowl on the counter after building it. You just set it there and walk away for the staff to grab. With limited counter space and several trays sitting there, it felt crowded. Even after it slowed down, there were still five or six trays waiting. People behind you end up shifting things around, and I am just not a big fan of walking away from my food while others are standing over it. I can see that area getting backed up quickly during peak hours. The restaurant was pretty clean. We came near the end of the dinner rush, and for that time of night it was still in solid shape. Our waitress was great, very thorough and attentive, and made sure we were taken care of the whole time. Overall, this is a great spot for people who like variety. Between Mongolian grill, Korean BBQ, and sushi, even a picky eater should be able to find something that works.

    Finally got a chance to head to hungry bowl and it was worth it! Heads up, they do take reservations but I overheard the hostess telling someone over the phone that they need to come in person to make their reservation and place a deposit. Otherwise, if you're willing to wait, you can come and put your name on the waitlist for that day. We came here on a Saturday pretty close to the time they opened and overall the average wait time was anywhere between 45 minutes to an hour and a half depending on your size of your party. Food wise, they offer a huge variety between the Mongolian Grill, sushi, and Korean barbecue. My personal favorite was the surf and turf sushi, and the bulgogi. They were very generous with the size of the fish. They served in the sushi rolls, and I also think the garlic shrimp was really good too. I was not too impressed with their appetizers compared to their other offerings. Despite ordering from the tablet, the service was amazing. Shout out to our server, David! He was constantly checking on us, making sure we were taken care of, but not overbearing. The food came out very quick and I would say on average we waited no more than 5 to 7 minutes after placing the order through the tablet. I would highly recommend hungry bowl if you're in the area or if you're with a large party of picky eaters or people who just like different things.

    *Tiktok convinced me* I have frequented the surrounding area - being raised close and was more familiar when this establishment was Fridays but I am LOVING Hungry Bowl. There was a 2-hour table limit and it was perfect timing for my cousin and I. The concept of this restaurant is great, where you have the option to either order your meats, sushi, and appetizers a la carte and/or enter the 'grab & go' section of the establishment to grab your meats, sauces and sides. If all of this makes sense... anywayyyy what's important is that the TASTE is present in either choice that you make. I would love to go here again. On the way out you have the option to take your food to go for $7.99/lb which in the grand scheme of things is not a bad price. For two people our total with to-go weighed.. was roughly $70. So!...5 stars from me!

    TLDR: Hungry Bowl is Bowie's go to spot for all you can eat sushi, Korean BBQ, and Mongolian stir fry under one roof. Expect a wait, but the system is efficient and the food is worth it. If you want to see where Bowie comes alive on a weekend, head to Hungry Bowl around lunchtime. We showed up at noon on a Saturday and the place was absolutely packed. Full capacity, buzzing energy, and a quoted 30 minute wait. Thankfully, their system is dialed in. They take your name and number and send you a virtual waitlist link that shows your place in line and estimated time. Our wait ended up being closer to 20 minutes, which felt very reasonable given how busy it was. Once seated, our waiter immediately came over and explained how everything works. Each table gets a tablet to order sushi, Korean BBQ, soups, salads, and apps. You also get a physical table card for the Mongolian grill station. That is where you walk up to a buffet line, load a bowl with raw ingredients, hand it off, and they stir fry it fresh and bring it straight to your table. The tablet menu is extensive. Specialty sushi rolls, bulgogi, Korean short ribs, fried apps, you name it. The Mongolian line is just as impressive with everything from fresh veggies to marinated steak, scallops, and shrimp. The sauce selection alone means no two bowls have to taste the same. We ordered about half a dozen sushi rolls, Korean short rib, bulgogi, and a few fried appetizers before heading to build our Mongolian bowls. By the time we finished at the grill station, our tablet order was already waiting at the table. Wicked fast service, especially for how slammed they were. The fried apps like calamari, shrimp, and katsu were solid but not something I would double up on. The real surprise was the sushi. Generous cuts of fish and some genuinely creative rolls. The surf and turf roll with torched steak over a spicy lobster roll was a standout and something you do not see everywhere. The Korean BBQ was also excellent. The bulgogi in particular was well marinated and delivered tender, savory bites with great umami flavor. When our Mongolian bowls arrived, they were piping hot and perfectly cooked. After finishing an 11 mile run at the gym earlier, this absolutely hit the spot. Overall, Hungry Bowl delivers variety, speed, and quality in a fun, high energy setting. It is a great choice for groups who cannot decide on one cuisine and an even better choice if you are looking to refuel after a serious workout. Definitely one of the hottest spots in Bowie.

    Quick and easy ordering and fast service! Second time coming since they've had their liquor license so we've enjoyed coming more.

    The place was definitely busy on a Saturday evening. Not great, but not the worst. Some things I enjoyed more than others. The place definitely gives the feel that they just opened and that they are still working on a few things. A definite plus was the variety of options for the buffet. On the more negative side, some of the sushi didn't taste fresh. In particular, the spider roll. It didn't taste or look like it contained real crab. Pro Tip: Check it out when it's cheaper for lunch and then go back if you enjoy it.

    Parking: There is plenty of parking in the lot outside. Wait time: We had to wait a hour to be seated. They gave us link to see where we were in the waitlist. There was some shopping places across very close by, so we were able to go browse there to spend time while watching where we were in line. Food: it was unlimited for sushi, korean bbq and mongolian bbq. We were able to order sushi and korean BBQ from a little ipad looking thing. They had specialty sushi as well but it was included in the price; there was no up charge. I liked that the food came in small quantities, so we could try a lot of dishes. My favorite the korean short rib and shrimp tempura sushi. They also had some interesting sushi choices for those of us that like cooked sushi, like a lobster and steak roll. For the mongolian bbq bowl we went to an another section, where you could build a bowl to put your starch, vegetables, and meats. There were a lot of options, shrimp, squid, fish, zucchini, broccoli, different types of noodles (lots of options). We were able to out our table number down and go back to our table. Everything was brought to us cooked. Everything we tried was really flavorful. And our bill for 2 was around $63. We did want to take some food home and that was an additional $8.99 pound. It was a fun experience and we will definitely go back.

    5 stars 5 stars 5 stars!!! This is AYCE and the pricing is extremely reasonable. We went on a Sunday and it was $29.99. On the weekdays I believe you can it for lunch time for $22.99. A steal these days! The selection across the board has something for everyone and also includes desserts. I unfortunately can't remember our waitresses name but she was absolutely top tier! It starts with understanding the process if you've been before, if not they will explain. To help you before you go, you get to order most sushi and apps from the iPad and the server for the rest. You then receive a card which you will place on your tray that gets handed to the cooks after you load up your bowl. This card is reusable to go for seconds. It allows you to check if you want rice/starch options or if you have allergies. You order your apps/sushi and go load up your bowl with all the goods. Noodles, vegetables, meat and poultry. One thing that threw me off which is now understandable but at the end they have seasoning for you to add to your bowl. Salt and pepper, Badia Complete, Badia Cajun, and Badia Lemon Pepper. We went with a mixture of complete and Cajun. After the sauces were also a lot of options, chili sauce, teriyaki, yum yum, soy, spicy chili, and more. It didnt take long for it to come back to the table. The only comment Ill make is with one line for self serve, you can run into people who are indecisive and take forever to add to their bowl. If there was a way to have two lines that met in the middle that might improve some of the slowness during peak hours. All in all, we'll absolutely make the drive back from DC to dine here again! += !!!

    If you love Asian food, Hungry Bowl must be on your foodie list. They have Mongolian Grill, Sushi, and Korean BBQ. My husband and I stopped in last night and it was buzzing. They opened less than a week ago and a great addition to the Bowie area. It's basically all you can eat. You pay a price (lunch , dinner or kids price) and can throw down! You order appetizers through their menu and certain things like soups you order with your server. You then go to the grill to pick out your base like rice, noodles , veggies, then meat and sauces. Then you had it to the grill master who takes your order and server brings to your table. They don't serve alcohol yet. So, we ordered Pepsi products. I had Dr. Pepper. This is great for date night, groups, or a casual meal.

    A welcomed addition to the growing Bowie food scene and pretty good for Day #2 of being open. Our sever was quick to greet us and give us an overview of the menu, and was very attentive throughout our meal. The sound track seemed to be almost the same as it was when TGI Friday's occupied the building and was a mix of early 2000's R&B. The self serve bar for creating your own Mongolian bowl was well stocked with a variety of fresh vegetables, and meats with a full spice and sauce bar. Each bowl came out perfectly cooked, although they took a while. The BBQ was cooked in the back and brought out to table by our server. The Karaage Chicken was more of a Chicken Katsu rather than what is traditionally referred to as Karaage Chicken. The sushi was okay but was covered in sauce which took away from the flavor. Looking forward to giving Hungry Bowl another chance in the near future; hopefully the new owners will keep the parking lot clean (there was a lot of broken glass on the side closest to the entrance).

    See all
