    Really glad I came across this place. I love a good restaurant where add all the toppings and fixings I want! It's very a build your own bowl type of restaurant. I ordered a bowl and added what felt like everything. The base was chicken and steak as well as some chickpeas , peppers , pita chips and spicy garlic. It was all very flavorful and good and I'll definitely revisit, plus I love the name of the restaurant too!

    Love to stumble on great new finds in the neighbourhood. We just finished grocery shopping and spotted this. It's very clean, like a newer place. It's got a comfortable, inviting vibe and the staff here are fast as well as friendly. My Big Fat bowl (Steak & Chicken) was huge. Definitely a healthy portion, but very pricey and very tasty. I also sampled the Falafel bowl which was also flavourful, but much less expensive. You can use fries as your base and I understand it's quite popular. Maybe we're old school or unwilling to try new things, we stuck with the rice. On our next visit, I fully intend to order the same thing as a tortilla or pita wrap (haven't decided). The fresh ingredients and the great flavour are what's bringing us back. Location is also a plus, for us. 10/25

    I ordered online and overall it was very easy. I will say they gave us a lot of sauce but they weren't labeled so it was difficult to tell which sauce was which as I ordered more than 1 item. I got a bowl with half rice and lettuce and the portion was large and generous. Since it was delivery it was a little pricier but that is expected. My only main complaint is that there were very large chunks of lettuce that were not chopped up in the bowl. Like they were at least like a 2x2 cube of lettuce that was exactly chewable.

    1/3/26 we decided on this place for lunch having never been here. OMG what a nice surprise. We were greeted and promptly waited on within seconds of walking in. Everything looked so yummy it was hard to decide so I just picked the crunchy chicken bowl as pictured on the front window, yes I'm a visual guy. My husband chose the salad type bowl, not sure of the name. The way it works is they grab an empty bowl and you choose what you want in it. Word of caution , 2 people can share a bowl it's that big. The restaurant was spotless, the staff was friendly and our lunch was out of this world , seriously it was that good. They only have 3 restaurants in the area and may expand later. Please stop in here for your next lunch date. BTW, they cater too.

    A good new spot in west bloomfield. We came here after a walk on the WB Trail. I wasn't all that hungry so I ended up just getting a side of the steak, which I believe they said is a tenderloin cut. It was moist and flavorful. The actual bowls are gigantic. My friends each got one and had leftovers. They really liked what they got. Overall, it's a fast casual situation, with a clean and bright atmosphere. You build your bowl or wrap and pick what you want in it. And the service was quick and friendly and I would come back. I only wish they had different size bowl options so I could've gotten a small bowl.

    This is as fresh & healthy as it gets in fast food and I'm so happy to have this place close to home Choose your base: salad, rice or wrap Choose your protein: I'm a veg so I went with falafel And then toppings galore I'm a little picky about my falafel so I didn't have high hopes but it's better than average here- and they have beets, turshi & chickpeas on their toppings bar so I'm all set I didn't choose any of the sauces or hummus, just the garlic sauce, which was surprisingly mild (if my family makes garlic sauce, it'll be with you for days ) Everything's so fresh, it doesn't need a lot of sauces weighing it down but you be you

    Yea so the West Bloomfield location is clean and neat with attentive service. Reminded me of a Subway shop but more modern decor. Located in the CrossWinds mall on the northeast corner of Orchard Lk Road and Lone Pine. Ok so the main issue here are the prices which ain't cheap BUT the portions are not. I ordered the chicken bowl and a bowl of chicken tortilla cheese soup which together cost $15 and $8, respectively. Tax and 15% tip brought total to $27.83. Here is the BUT. My entire order could easily feed 2 people and possibly three light eaters. Not a bad deal when you look at it that way. Now to the most important part, the food. The soup was thoroughly cheesy with small bits of chicken breast and jalapeño. Very tasty with just the right amount of spicy and salty. My chicken bowl had about 15 items in it and was HUGE. It easily gave me three servings. All items were fresh and very tasty. The bowl's ingredients were a bit cold so I found heating them up to improve the taste. The chicken in the bowl was plentiful and extremely well spiced and tender. Overall I would go back again but with a bigger appetite ...and if you go with someone I recommend sharing one bowl and see how that goes. Happy eating!

    Clean modern and nice

    Stopped in during lunch and it was the best decision, food was excellent and service was exceptional. The staff were continuously cleaning and the place is spotless. I've never seen a cleaner food establishment in the area. I'll be sure to come back again!

    MBFS is an awesome fast Mediterranean spot to satisfy that kind of craving ... which I have a lot! I've eaten all 4 proteins and the steak is my favorite, which they boast as filet and it shows. I usually build a lighter bowl of 1/2 rice 1/2 salad because the servings are heavy handed. I also opt for fattoush dressing because it's a lighter option but when I want to indulge I get a side of spicy fat sauce!!! My daughter loves the crispy chicken, I usually make her a simple bowl of that, rice and cucumbers. Can't forget the cookies !!! Dubai choc chunk is our favorite but all 3 are good. The place is clean and neat, a huge factor in where we decide to

    I drove in from out of town and was looking forward all day for dinner at Ashlan. Unfortunately,…read morethe exhaust fan in their kitchen stopped working, so cooking smoke was backing up into the dining room. As I was walking in, they were closing the restaurant. The woman at the cash register was so apologetic. We had a wonderful conversation about my disappointment, but I completely understood the situation. Unfortunately, my trip itinerary being what it was, I wasn't able to come back the next night to try their food. But I think my experience still qualifies for a review. The customer service during an adverse event and the ambience of the dining room were top drawer. I can't speak for the food, although I'd like to, but it isn't going to withhold me from giving them a great review. There's never a good time for mechanical problems. I hope they were quickly resolved.

    It's newly opened. I was here once when it was a Thai restaurant. They have been open for two…read moremonths. Inside looks bright and clean and fresh, should after only being open for 2 months. Interior decor looks much better than it's Thai days. We were told to sit down at a back table. They are separating tables with reserved signs for tables between. Waitress or owner said there's a price war on chicken and some prices are higher as a result. Ordered a large Fattoush salad sans pita, shawarma plate with hummus and lentil soup and a chicken kabob with hummus and lentil soup. They have square pita, not fresh oven pita here. Their pickled veggies are good. Torchi-e are the pickled cabbage, along with pickled turnip, cucumbers, tomatoes and olives too. There seems to be rice in the lentil. Not a big fan, filler I would rather not have in my lentil. Asked for some garlic paste, not made with butter. Nicer The chicken shawarma meat tastes decent, although it's a bit dry. The chicken kabob meat is tender, juicy and flavorful too. It's good on it's own and even better with their garlic paste and hummus too. Attentive and friendly service, good food, good portions and good prices too.
