Absolutely loved my bowl at The Bowl! The ingredients were super fresh and the portion size was bigger than I expected. The black rice had great texture, and the salmon + tuna tasted really clean and high quality. Great spot for a healthy and satisfying meal. I’ll definitely be coming back!

**Poke Bowl and Bubble Tea Review** I recently savored a poke bowl paired with bubble tea at a best spot in town. The poke bowl boasted fresh sushi-grade salmon with creamy avocado, crisp veggies, and a tangy marinade that balanced perfectly. Topped with sesame seeds and nori, it was a visual and culinary delight. The taro bubble tea was creamy yet not too sweet, with chewy tapioca pearls adding a fun texture. Served cold, it was a refreshing complement to the flavorful poke bowl. Overall, a satisfying and delicious experience that left me eager to return for more.

As soon as I’ve found this place, i crave poke bowl on the weekly!! Have been coming to close to a year, weekly or so, and they consistently deliver fresh high quality ingredients and it’s just so delicious every time. Olivia is mostly behind the counter making the bowls and she is so kind. Love the vibe, and most of all the food!!!

My coworkers and I LOVE ordering lunch from here! It’s a bit pricey but so worth it! I usually get three proteins and tons of toppings. My favorite part is that the fish is extremely fresh, and they have a variety of toppings! I also tried the ramen which was pretty good. 10/10 will definitely order again

We finally stopped to try their food! This is a small but homie place, owners are friendly, have it nicely organized. I loved the Pork Gyoza, the shrimp Shumai, my grilled chicken bowl was nice and filling. My husband had a Ramen soup, which he loved and I was not crazy about bubba tea, but my daughter gave me a sip of her coconut tea and it was really good! It is a quick service place, I saw people coming in and out with their teas and young kids sitting down and talking over ramen. We had a nice experience.

i try to go as much as humanly possible, i don’t know why there are reviews about the staff being rude, the staff are always super nice and super patient when i ask for extra extra cilantro. Best poke place and boba place i’ve ever been to highly recommend to everyone i come across- also a bit expensive what u pay for what you get and their fish are always super fresh and not hot like other places :)

We are always satisfied with our experience at the Bowl!! The food is so good, I really like the options, and they are always so kind and communicative. We usually order online for pickup, and they will call right away if they have any questions, so our order is always right. Also, the bubble tea is vegan and they use dairy-free creamer, which tastes great and has previously been hard for me to find at other places. We highly recommend it!

Poke was so good. The lady was mean but I deserved it. I walked out of there a better man with the poke of my life. Got a new lunch spot.

Amazing food and great service. The portion is are impressive, each dish is carefully prepared and of the highest quality. If you really hungry and in the mood for Ramen look no further. A hidden gem in Lynbrook.

Simple little place with some tables to sit should you choose to. Overall wasn't bad but, in my experience, the price isn't justified. Traditional Noodles, Tonkatsu Style: Noodles were OK. Weren't the best tasting Broth was thick and not oily. Overall flavorful Toppings was lacking for its price point: Bean Sprouts, 3 slices of chasu, corn, 2 pieces of bok choy The chasu was cooked to a good consistency (had a good firmness) but lacking in flavor Chili oil offered for spice but not the traditional spicy paste Portion itself wasn't a bad size Cost of bowl $14 pre-tax Tapioca Milk Tea: Good sweetness Tall serving Tapioca was well made Overall worth the price $5.50 pre-tax Combined total: $22 including tax Conclusion: Good place for a lunch but not worth the price. I've had similar ramen for $9 - $10 and for its current price point, Ni Ramen (just 3 blocks away) has more to offer. *Chopsticks are very cheap. Splintered and leaves small shreds thst get into the soup.

The flavor of everything is really good, my only issue is the portion of meat. And a heads up for anyone who wants to order the pork buns- don’t get it unless you want to be skimped. Way more bun than pork.

Mediocre and not worth the drive: the milk tea flavor was chalky; the tapioca pearls were a strange light brown; and the pork buns were decent but plain, no garnish or cucumber or anything. Also strange to have a sit down restaurant with no bathroom, but at least the seating is nice.

I walked in with my 2 brothers and we have ritual where we take turns at trying new restaurants and it just so happened to be my turn to order first. If portions were good they would’ve ordered too but unfortunately they weren’t. I’ll say that they skimped a little on the rice but it’s ok it’s rice. I asked her if a certain toppings “comes with the bowl” and she said that nothing comes with the bowl you have to choose yourself. I explained how what I meant is “is it extra” and she said ok. Finally when we got to the protein I asked for salmon for my first protein and I kid you not she put the smallest scoop you’ll ever see. I counted 4 pieces. I thought to myself “ok it’s alright I still have 2 more proteins.” I look back at my brothers and I see them trying their best not to bust out laughing. Eventually it got to me and I was also trying not to laugh but then I realized I’m the one paying for it and then it wasn’t so funny anymore. Then after I asked for spicy tuna and salmon and she pulled out her little bowl and put 12 pieces max of tuna and salmon combined and drowned them in spicy mayo. At that point I was considering walking out but I just paid my $20 and left. Also when I asked if Kani “comes with it” again, she came at me in a rude tone saying “I already said nothing comes with it” overall I think that I’m doing them a favor of spending my money there and being treated like garbage after being given 20 pieces of fish for $20. Would not recommend.

I didn’t even get the chance to order because of how rude the cashier was. My 12-year-old son opened the beverage fridge to look at his options and was immediately scolded with, “Just pick the drink you want and don’t play with the fridge doors.” When I explained that he was simply reading the labels on the Japanese drinks to decide what he wanted, the cashier responded with, “The glass is see-through.” There’s absolutely no need to talk to a customer—especially a child—in such a condescending way. We were just trying to decide on a drink, not “play” with anything. Needless to say, we left before ordering. I can’t speak to the food because we didn’t get that far, but I would strongly encourage the owner to provide better hospitality training for their staff. People come here to enjoy themselves and spend their hard-earned money—not to be treated rudely before even placing an order.
