Free catered lunch from work. S tier corporate slop bowl - Miso glazed salmon, sweet potato noodles, charred Brussels sprouts, sweet potatoes: 11/10, everything was SO GOOD and flavorful. Like I loved everything. The salmon was spectacular and packed w flavor, so juicy. The Brussels sprouts and sweet potatoes were insane too, esp the Brussels sprouts. Thought the noodles would lack flavor but somehow it had a ton of flavor?? Also SO filling, could def be two meals. Only con is it's a TAD bit too oily, but like barely. Would buy w/ my own money read more

I ordered delivery for lunch. They have several protein options for bowls and you can customize the sides. The crispy chili tofu bowl was great. I didn't taste any chili on the tofu, but it had nice firm, bouncy texture. For sides, I got the charred broccoli and roasted corn and edamame. The broccoli was tasty, but a little overcooked. The corn and edamame were very flavorful. For my base, I got the sweet potato noodles. These were delicious and you couldn't tell that they weren't made of wheat. Very satisfying overall, though it was a touch too oily. My husband got the chili koji chicken bowl and was pleased with it too. Great option for lunch! read more

Love the Brussel Sprouts and sweet potato noodles. Great service and they have the best take out bags!

Absolutely 10/10 spot for a quick healthy lunch. Love the options here and customizability, and the flavors are on point. Lemongrass chicken is the way to go; the steak I got once and it was super tough and disappointing. The chicken is often tender and juicy especially if you get it earlier in the day, though if you come at night you may find that it has run out for the day. The bok choy is a little oily but really tasty. The edamame salad is pretty solid, too. I just love that you can have a veggie forward meal on a weekday and still have it taste so good. Sign up for rewards, after like 10 you can get a bowl free, tied to your phone #. The black multigrain rice has a perfect texture to it, too. You can choose a variety of sauces to go with your meal. I work nearby so I find myself coming again and again. read more

Ordered from Som Bo the lemongrass chicken with corn, bok choy on a bed of noodles and an egg. I loved this bowl and the chicken was so juicy and absolutely delicious ! I would highly recommend getting this bowl. I can't wait to try this again! read more

Almost closing time, 945pm on a Sunday night and wanted a light snack in NYC. Came upon this nondescript place on a corner in Chelsea and was pleasantly surprised. Asian-ish, well prepared vegetable sides with very good grilled protein that may have been flank steak. Very flavorful, fresh, crisp vegetables, steak medium, not tough, but toothsome. All preparations were well seasoned. Carlos, behind the counter was professional and courteous, asking if we had any food allergies. Wow, the new New York City, this could work. read more

Som Bo - Steak bowl, fresh vegetables, kimchi - Asian Fusion Near Me - New York, New York

Maybe I got the wrong thing, but this one was hard to get down. I got noodles, chili chicken (they were out of lemongrass), broccoli, and brussel sprouts. The chicken was bland, and brussel sprouts too dry. $14 for a custom bowl. Service was fine, no crowd when I went in at 9pm on Tuesday. There are a few sitting tables inside read more

The service here was quick because it was Subway-style. My boyfriend had questions about the steak because he was just curious and liked the steak, and the staff was friendly and helpful talking to him about the steak. The space was clean, quiet, and it was the perfect place to grab a quick meal. They also played K-pop. The Grilled Lemongrass Chicken was slightly dry, but I liked the flavor. I liked the Sweet Potatoes, and while they were soggy, I got hints of the previous crispiness it had when it was fresher. The Cucumbers were good but nothing special. They didn't have much of a kick, but they did have flavor. The Fried Tofu tasted like it was coated with curry powder. While the flavor was unmatched when paired with the Scallion Chimichurri, I quickly got tired of the flavor, likely just because I was hoping the tofu would be Taiwanese salt and pepper style. The brown rice was okay, not that rice is typically the highlight of a meal. As a white or fried rice fan, my opinion is biased and I found it lacking. I also tried the Korean Chili Aioli, which I liked but didn't find that it paired that well with anything I ordered. read more

Som Bo - Grilled Organic Tofu Bowl - Asian Fusion Near Me - New York, New York

This has got to be one of my favorite take out places in New York. The exterior is noticeable and has a great location in Chelsea. The glass windows are very transparent and the store front isn't too big. Walking in, you walk through a line where you place your order and they put it in your bowl for you. This reminds me of Chipotle but Asian style dishes and ingredients used. Overall, everything moved very quickly and I was excited to assemble my bowl. The portions are definitely on the decent size and the juices on the food definitely flow. Protein wise I'm a big fan of the steak and the chicken - sauce wise would definitely recommend getting their signature soy based sauce and scallion oil. The cook on everything was good and the flavor profile was my favorite part. Definitely will be back for more! read more

No more stadium seating, still good, fresh ingredients, a relatively healthy meal in a fast manner.

Food is good for a quick meal and some decent fusion options. The bowl is mainly a lot of rice on the bottom with two sides and a protein on top. Don't be fooled by the size of the bowl since it's most likely 60-70% rice and 30-40% everything else. Regardless it's a good portion size if you're not looking to stuff yourself. Service was fast and easy at the time we went and the ambiance was pretty casual. It's a good spot to go to after a workout or run. read more

We very much enjoyed our recent delivery order from Som Bo. The food was fresh and tasty and arrived well packaged and ready to eat! We had a variety of selections: salmon, beef, chicken and tofu and all were delicious! read more

Just ok. The hot sides were barely lukewarm. The multigrain rice didn't taste great and the mixed greens weren't very fresh. The brussel sprouts were incredibly salty but I appreciated that they were crispy. The baked tofu was ok. The one amazing thing was the chimichurri sauce. Service was fine. They were quick. Not sure why the floors were so sticky? Good price but could be better quality overall. read more

My Pickleball team just buried the alleged 1 seed "Its Kosher" 6 feet under Chelsea Piers. The Fermented Cucumbers are now 1-4 on the year, and we have our eyes set on the playoffs. We came into Som Bo post game as we needed a high protein meal to keep this train rolling. Sleep on a win and you'll wake up with a loss. I would categorize this place as an Americanized-Asian fusion chipotle like establishment. Me and my allstar teammate, Andrew Zhou, both opted for double chicken bowls. I got a base of half black rice and half sweet potato noodle, and for my two toppings I went with kale and corn. I'm an elite athlete. From the food to the staff to the interior of this place, it was a bit uninspired. IG @jnov_ Tiktok @jnov__ read more

Chili lime chicken was really dry. Staff was pretty not friendly and really not clear about only 2 sides and not getting any sauce. I only ate about a third of my food before I couldn't really take it anymore. Chipotle or Fle Fle Grill or some other proper Asian fusion establishment would be much better and worth the money. read more

Food was great. Staff were friendly. Only issues was both times I ordered online I went to pick it up and my order was wrong. I got a confirmation email when I placed the order and showed staff what I ordered they seemed annoyed and the second time the guy working kinda of refused to remake it at first but when I asked for a refund he came around and remade it. read more

Chicken was dry & the noodles were so oily. Definitely don't order the noodles if you're trying to be healthy. Nothing was awful but nothing was good. read more

Great for a quick meal - lots of options. I especially like salmon and glass noodles. Clean interiors.

Stopped by to grab dinner to go. I got half black rice/half sweet potato noodles, beets, cucumbers and grilled lemongrass chicken. The warm sides didn't look that fresh or appetizing so decided to get two cold sides. I also got the edamame hummus with wonton chips. But everything just tasted greasy and lacked flavor (aside from the chicken), even the two sauces that you can pick were so oily. read more

One of the better Asian fusion establishments. Their meals are fresh, light, healthy and very filling. They have limited seating. read more

This Yelp review is incorrect. Som Bo, offering a promising version of the "Chipotle of..." genre, is impressive in its delivery time. But this speed also perhaps caused the multiple errors in the order. Is it awful of me to complain during these tough times? I do hopefully speak favorably about the 99% of places who provide the stated items. And a review is a snapshot in time, maybe it was a one-time thing. The pork bowl, closer to the actual Chipotle than you might expect, had a decent array of vegetables and sauce. More broadly, I don't like the fake branding of "Izakaya Bo," but delivery pseudonyms are not rare these days in the shady world of Uber Eats. read more

Best decision I made today regarding lunch. I got the build your own bowl. The food was fresh and you had an array of ingredients to choose from. I went with the Black rice, roasted Brussels sprouts, cabbage and roasted chicken which was flavorful and delicious. The portion size was decent and the service was fast. Staff was friendly and took time to answer my questions regarding my allergy. Will definitely be adding to my go to lunch spot. read more

Insanely delicious to the point that I was second-guessing their published calorie counts - could a piece of tofu so flavorful really only be 75 calories? For my maiden voyage with Som Bo, I accompanied said tofu with the charred Brussels and broccoli, as well as the spicy cucumbers, all over a bed of yam noodles. The Brussels and broccoli were very flavorful, and heavily infused with soy sauce marinade. The cucumbers were not my absolute favorite, but helpful as a slightly lighter counterbalancing flavor if you're getting some of the other rich ingredients in a bowl. Will be back soon! read more

Straight out of the subway, spacious, clean looking, smells yummy, prompt and polite staff and knowledgeable about the options. I took the order to go. It is served in recyclable containers (+!!). The food portion is quite consistent. I would split it in 1/2 but for bigger hunger, go for it ! A little salty for my taste, though full of flavors ! Really nice mix of healthy ingredients ! Whatever the spices are, really different ! Good spot in this neighborhood. read more

Som Bo - Pork + brown rice Pretty good portion! - Asian Fusion Near Me - New York, New York

I came in during the peak of Omicron in the city to grab a quick bowl to eat in the sanitized sanctuary that was my sister's living room and I was pleasantly surprised by the food! There was only one other customer in the store at the time, picking up an order, because all the chairs were flipped up due to Covid safety precautions. The staff who helped me were incredibly patient and kind when I said I needed to take a moment to parse the menu. Maybe it was due to our shared trauma of enduring sub-freezing temperatures that whole week (in January). With that said, the food was good but nothing I would go out of my way for. I wish I were able to select at least one more side to go with my bowl. If I'm in the area again and hankering for some fast casual Asian fusion, Som Bo is on the list! read more

I used to like this place. In fact I walked 20 blocks to come here and have lunch and to my surprise the service was awful and the portions are smaller, less food!. The whole place was so smoky cloudy from the cooking I had to open the door myself. I smelled as if I was cooking all day . This place charges the same amount $$ but now serving less food? Why? Ripping their customers off? That's NOT tight. The food is not bad for fast food but the service and the size are smaller the it was few days ago. The whole experience was mediocre. read more

Wow! Pricey, but worth it. For me, it is on the really high end of my lunch budget, but the food quality is able to match the price. I like the selection because I was able to get this: Chili Lime Chicken - $11.02: (Purple Rice, Sweet Potato Noodles with Carrots and Scallions (Contains Soy) (Vegan), Curry lentils (Vegan), Miso Kale & Kimchi Salad (Contains Soy) (Vegan)(Cold), Korean Chili Aioli). I love the mix as well as the flavor. I also got a Matcha Oatmilk Latte ($3.95?) which was also super flavorful yet subtle. Will come back occasionally for lunch. The service was really nice and the workers were friendly. read more

This place is such a gem! Their Lychee Hibiscus Tea is the greatest thing I've ever tried. It was refreshing. Each bowl, you get to choose what you put in. It's almost like a Chipotle but for Asian fusion. I put fried tofu and sweet potato noodles topped with bokchoy and edamame slaw! I paired it with the Korean chili aioli. The flavor of the aioli was hardly noticeable, but I was also expecting something spicier. I do want to try their other sauces next time. The service was quick. We were able to order our food and receive it immediately. The staff was really nice. read more

Great spot for fusion food. Picked up a too good to go bag and they were friendly and helpful. I will definitely be back.

I feel bad giving a lower rating during COVID but this was just really not worth the money. I got a bowl with black rice, brussels sprouts, sweet potato, and lemongrass chicken. The brussels sprouts were very salty and didn't have much flavor beyond the saltiness, and the sweet potatoes and chicken were also quite bland. I got a side of scallion chimichurri sauce which was essentially some parsley in oil. read more

Really disappointed - they've cut their best dish, the Korean short ribs, off the menu! This was the dish I got every weekend. It was incredible and the reason I used up my entire punch card so quickly. Why are the Korean short ribs no longer available? I've tried the chicken and it's okay, but not worth getting too often. Sad! read more
