    Simple menu. Good food. Good price. Belly feel full. Fast service. Great place for lunch.

    Big Bowl
    Sahitya M.

    Loved the caption- it's like tasting a hug . First I thought the quantity was less but once I had it, I am so full! The coriander, avocado and the cream combination tasted so yum!! The tali sauce has an interesting taste! Overall the whole experience was good! The only thing I felt was the menu was pretty limited! Would have been great if there were more options to choose from! The place is really small. They have a small window for ordering and I didn't see any outdoor or indoor seating . Overall I would definitely come back.

    Great food wonderful staff!! The lady I spoke to over the phone was very kind answered all the question thoroughly.

    Quick & delicious! So glad this place has come to Beaverton. It is located right next to Big's! There's no seating, just an order window. You don't need to spend much energy thinking about what you want to order here as there is only one choice! I usual get a big bowl but today for kicks, I tried the bambino size and I feel satisfied. I order without beans & sour cream and I'm never given attitude about it. Some places do! Not here, they usually ask me if I want extra rice instead. Why yes, that's ok? Encouraged even. Gosh, thanks for always being nice people at the window. Welcome to Beaverton! I'll be back for many week day lunches.

    I was very disappointed today with how little they filled the bowl with. I ordered big bowl and got the amount of the bambino which is the smaller size. Barely any avocados Whole bowl, you can do better than this!

    Big Bowl - good but expensive
    Vic P.

    Tasty and well prepared but overpriced, especially considering there's no meat. Better than yum bowl. Get it if you don't mind the price.

    Outside, menu, hours

    Indecisive? No worries, here because one thing on the menu that is customizable and delicious! Order at the window and get a meal that is healthy and hearty. Add chips if you want and a variety of hot sauces too. With non-plastic lids, bowls, and silverware this window is the way. The service is fast and efficient. Friendly too For first timers, there is a small sample that you can try and dog treats available for the furry friends! Although it was raining when I went, there was a few customers before me and after me. A quick snack or entree that keeps you full. Definitely glad to see this as an addition to the growing downtown Beaverton community

The chicken curry was flavorful, but there wasn't much chicken--mostly sauce. Unfortunately, the dish was also quite salty. The lamb butter rice had a similar issue: very salty, with only a small amount of lamb and a relatively small portion of rice. The server was very nice and friendly and did a great job taking care of us. The atmosphere is probably the biggest draw. The restaurant has a beautiful, almost jungle-like vibe, with plants hanging throughout the space, making it a fun and stylish place to relax and enjoy some drinks. Overall, we spent about $70 for two entrées and two drinks, which felt a bit pricey considering the portions and the saltiness of the food. The food wasn't bad, but this isn't the place I'd choose if you're looking purely for great food. It feels more like a place to enjoy the atmosphere, have some creative drinks, and hang out.

    We were in Portland visiting my cousin for the weekend and we wanted to grab a quick light dinner…read moresince we had a super heavy lunch around 3pm. My cousin mentioned this place and we were hesitant to try it. He said they had great reviews and was in New York Times, but we were still hesitant to try it because we didn't care much for Pizza- nor were we craving it. It was me, my 15-year-old daughter, my brother, my sister in-law and my cousin. We were greeted but the most friendliest staff I've ever encountered IN MY LIFE. You order and pay at the counter and find a seat. They have an area where you can get your own waters as well. We ordered the Pho Pizza, Banh Mi Pizza, and the Chicken Satay Pizza. I wanted to order the Pandamn ice cream but they ran out as well as their tiramisu desserts. In my head I wanted to take away 1 star but then I tried the pizza. Pho - 10/10 First bite and I could NOT stop smiling. It was SOOO good! This was the groups favorite. My brother doesn't even like sprouts but it worked very well with the pizza. It was like eating pho but on bread. OMG my mouth is salivating just thinking about it and I can't even get it now because I'm in the Bay Area. Banh Mi - 100/10 This was my personal favorite. It was basically like an open Banh Mi with a hint of pizza. The flavors were amazing and I loved the pickled daikon and carrots on top! I'm not sure if refreshing would be the right world, but I know amazing would be another way I would describe this. I live in San Jose and I go to San Francisco often so I'm actually pretty disappointed in the Bay Area for not having anything like this. Satay Pizza - 9/10 To be honest, we were already getting full but because it tasted so good, we finished this one too. The sauce was a creamy curry sauce (I think with a hint of coconut) and had some peanuts sprinkled on top which gave it more flavor and a nice texture. Lastly, the pizza crust tasted AMAZING. It had a slight crisp to it but it was fluffy in the inside, kind of like Mochi bread. We literally left no crumbs! 1000/10 would recommend this place!

Since I'm from SE, I will definitely be coming here when I find myself at the Reser!
