Bowl Express Chinese Food

This location is new as of 02/15/26 I use to go to the old location but now it got a big upgrade, food better, more modern, it’s self served, I think it cheaper too got a good amount of food for $15 and they gave a complimentary boba. Very friendly will definitely be my new spot for Chinese food

A great heaping portion of food and great service. One of the better fast food Chinese options in the area. The chicken egg rolls and chow mein were delicious!

Great food and service. You get in and get out. Lady serving is efficient and speedy. I can see how some people might be offended but if you are NOT READY TO ORDER DON'T GET IN LINE. I hate waiting behind someone who is uncertain about what to eat. But anyhow, great food.

I think the bad reviews about the service here are misunderstanding Chinese/Fujianese culture. In America restaurants are very open and talkative. Most Chinese restaurants aren't and it's purely from a Cultural standpoint. It's not that they are being rude, it's that they want to serve you as quick and efficiently as possible. The language barrier also makes it seem like they might be "rude" or "short" with you. This is a great place for good food in BIG portions. This place was a go to for my college meals on a budget!

I like this Chinatown cooking, it's not too greasy. The portions are good. I recommend the rost chicken with spicy chicken no rice just noddles.

I was pretty hungry so this place was good enough.. pretty good selection of food, decent price, and huge portions 🍲🥘🍚🍛the lady was pretty stern and lacks "some" hospitality and doesn't look like she smiles much BUT I feel like it contributed to the authentic chinese atmosphere.. plus she reminds me of my Siamese Cat who rarely shows me affection so I felt right at home..lmao.. overall a pretty decent place.

Lady was rude and didn't even look at me, like she wanted me out of her restaurant... Food was decent but I have a suspicion that the beef was a non meat substitute

Stopped here for a quick bite. Food wasn't that good. Worst wor wonton soup. Chicken teriyaki was just ok. Needs cleaning. Pretty dirty. Won't return.

The food was great. The attitude from the lady running the front was not needed. Sorry your having a bad day but don’t take it out on customers.

Food was ok..could of been way better..pepper chicken was only thing that taste good...the rest could be way better..place needs to clean up way more! And there Not very friendly..

Sorry but the food looked alittle weird. The meat was dark.. looked old.. did not taste good at all..

The lady was really ruth. The place dirty. First and last time that I go there. Brought the food to work and nobody liked, I had to trow it away. I don’t recommend this place.

This food got me and my wife sick, we were up all night vomiting, we will not go back.

Horrible service the lady attending us was rude and rushed me literally to decide on my items. The food is ok I won’t be coming back.

The food has the flavor and texture of food that has been previously frozen . Inexpensive low quality cuisine. I wouldn't recommend this cuisine.

I stopped by yesterday first time visiting this place. Customer service is very bad. The person behind the counter is very rude. Food is not fresh. Not recommended

The server had a very bad attitude, very rude. Horrible customer service skills. We asked for extra soy sauce and sweet & sour. She grabbed both items aggressively and threw it in to the bag. We will Never come back here!

HORRIBLE!!!!! THE LADY WAS SO SO VERY RUDE AND DISGUSTING TOWARDS ME AND MY FRIEND( WHO IS A COMBAT VETERAN). FOOD IS ALSO NO GOOD!!!!!!🤮

I hate rating restaurants badly, but I feel like people should know about this place. The doors were wide open and there were a lot of flies. The "Family Deal" that offers 3 entrees and 3 egg rolls is actually three Styrofoam containers with a ton of fried rice or lo mein and a spoonful of entree. The rice was completely undercooked and The lo mein noodles were spaghetti noodles, like literally spaghetti noodles, they didnt even spring for Angel hair. The egg rolls, which are pictured on the large colorful ad for the deal at the entrance, are in fact veggie spring rolls easily 1/3 of the size. The woman who served us was rude, and then just went outside to the wide open entrance where another man who worked there sat smoking. I won't be coming back.

Worst experience! We asked how spicy something was and the lady flipped out yelling at us. We went to a small mom and pops place to help support during Covid but they can shut down for all we care. Not a good place to go. Mean and ok food.

I went in ordered my food, she told me the price, I gave her my credit card, she had a attitude and said something under her breath, I asked for hot and soy sauce she threw it me. Literally, Plus THE FOOD IS HORRIBLE WISHED I'D GOT A REFUND

Gross food and terribly rude will not go here again the lady hates when you use a debit card and she will also tell you she is out of the other food that is not already made. Had bad stomach problems after eating

When I go in this a place, it looked so dirty and dusty over counter. The window need to cleaned. When I got my foods so it taste not good Bec the foods are cold. Otherwise health inspection need to check this a place. I recommend one star .

It was absolutely the worse experience I had at a Chinese fast food restaurant. The food was stale and tasted really bad. The service was horrible too. I would never go back here again.

the food was bad the teriyaki chicken was burnt and hard and the chow mein was very dry and tasteless, the worst is the attitude of the lady, she is rude and has very bad attitude. I do not recommend it

The food is lousy, the lady in front is rude and might cheat you, and the place is dirty. I will not be coming back here again.

Employee in front on 11/6/2024 (around Noon) was VERY RUDE & VERY UNPROFESSIONAL! A bigger purchase and future purchases were not even worth it because of the HORRIBLE experience from this employee. Asked how long store had been open and/or in this location. Explained I was a REGULAR customer 20 years ago. I was hoping they were the same considering many places closed due to COVID…therefore my inquiry regarding length of time. Employee response didn’t occur until asked multiple times…the response…IDK (with much attitude. Said THANK YOU to same employee at register…again had to ask multiple times…no response…AT ALL. Lastly, informed her that her service level was sub-par, rude, and unprofessional…NO RESPONSE…AGAIN! Perhaps service level is unimportant since they seemed to not care after informed. No recognizable hearing problem(s). Please note food/egg-rolls only were VERY tasty and reminded me of my experience from the past 😁 Nonetheless, limited purchase due to service level being horrible.

Food was so cold. The walls were disgustingly dirty. The lady employee was extremely rude. When we told her we would share a plate she didn't seem happy. I asked for 2 extra plates and she handed me only 1. I said I need 1 more she said "i gave you 1" yeah but its 3 of us. The 3rd is my small child. She wasn't happy. Then i asked for a cup of water. She pointed to the refrigerator and said "water there" pointing to a bottle of water. I said no a cup of water, my son and I cannot drink cold water. She went to the back and brought a dirty cup with water. As we sat there to eat we noticed that they re used the same spoons with different food and they re used dirty spoons in their hot sauce which is usually bottled (sriracha). She was so rude. When we left she started to scream to whoever was working there with her In the back and she even came outside to scream at us, we didn't understand because she was speaking in her language. Horrible service

If I can give this place zero stars I would. I went in there today for the first time. And let me tell you that 1. This place smelt really bad. And 2. The lady working there was rude! I went in there and saw that there was no more broccoli beef and asked if they were going to make more and she rudely said “yeah coming”. After that I was looking to see what they had since it was my first time there; and she was so impatient and rudely said “go,go”! That’s when I got upset and told her “can’t you wait, it’s my first time here so I’m looking to see what you guys have!” And I left! Never coming back to this place ever. Worse customer service ever!

Be aware that the food there is NOT fresh and if you ask for fresh the owner gets irate. The women got even more angry when I asked for a paper plate she threw it at me and said we charge you. I wanted to get my money back but didn't have time on my lunch break. I paid for this food in the bathroom later that night. I will NEVER return.

The lady is very rude, just throws the food in the plate. She touched the food without gloves. The noodles were mushy very soft, food was just warm and old looking. Horrible all around, would never go back, ever.

I can deal with a rude server, but this place is filthy! Behind the counter is a mess, and you can see dust collecting on the decorations that are on the counter. The server lady was not wearing gloves (or mask) and didn't wash her hands between serving the food to customers. The food is practically cheep buffet food, it's cold, and made me feel sick after. I'm surprised this place is still open.

Lady was rude and when asked for a taste sample, she said No. She was too lazy to provide a sample of an item I wanted to try. So I had to resort to orange chicken. It was bland at best. I WON'T BE COMING BACK HERE AGAIN. Poor Service and Bland Food.

The food was so horrible and the customer service was the worst I have ever experience. They keep telling me the opposite of what i wanted. They dont take the time to listen to their customers at all. I left this place feeling unsatisfied with my food and for the price i paid it was a joke. I will tell everyone not to wast your time or money on this dump. The owner is rude and a jerk.

My parents came here yesterday and we used to like this place, but haven’t been here in 10+ years. The food was absolutely disgusting. The teriyaki chicken was still raw. The chow mein smelled spoiled. The food was also cold. It ended up getting thrown away. Save your money. There’s better choices than this place

I was not feeling good so I ordered ahead some war wonton soup when I got there it wasn’t fixed because she said people don’t pay, but I understand why the place looks closed when you walk up and this Wonton soup has absolutely no taste. I will not be going back. First and last. Maybe the years have just taken its toll on the business and the owners and it might be time to either revamp or close

This is very nasty place to eat. Do not eat here. The lady is very rude, unprofessional and seems like she talk shit about you in her language. I didn’t even eat. I left all the food untouched. Such a horrible place.

Knowing this place for more than 20 years and today I had the biggest disappointment when I arrived with my family and told them that this place's quality was very good. Sadly, the person who attended us around three in the afternoon was not very professional at all. rudethe broccoli with meat was not in good condition it was about to go bad and showed an unprofessional attitude it seems that apparently over the years it has hurt them to keep this place in good condition who knows who the owner is but I won't go again a very big disappointment I do not recommend it

This place has good food but I had two orders and the lady in the front didn't want to give me two sweet and sour sauces, one for each plate, which makes sense. Even when I offered to buy it. My mom said that she would do without it, but I was about to tell them that they can have this food back and give me a refund. She was very rude, even though I usually have a decent experience at this place, I will not be coming back anytime soon. I am highly disappointed

I usually do not post bad reviews, but I really felt the need to post something. I was visiting Corona for one day and when I arrived, I noticed there was a small Chinese restaurant, so I decided to get dinner there. The woman server was absolutely rude and progressively got worse as she kept serving. I actually wish now that I would have gotten my money back and left the food before leaving! I will never return there again, and do not recommend anyone go there if this is how customers are to be treated!

Very rude server, have not even had a bite to eat yet but I will never return. It was hard communicating with her in the first place but she was rushing me and the person with me. No one was in the place waiting, she also took food out of the container after she put it in. About a tablespoon full, Because they won’t throw that away tonight.
