    We saw on Instagram that they had a $25 Double Meal Set deal going on so we decided to come try it out. It's essentially 2 entrees + 1 appetizer and you get to pick which ones you want. I've attached an image of the different options available. We came in on a week day and honestly it was quite dead. They do have fantastic Bruce Lee art on the walls. The seating wasn't exactly too comfortable and the washroom was not very clean. Service can be slow at times because there was only 1 waiter. We choose the Classic Beef Noodle, Chicken & Mushroom Clay pot rice and the Cold Spiced Chicken. It also came with a Seaweed egg drop soup. The Classic beef noodle was very average. The beef wasn't seasoned very well and the noodles were a bit too soft. Honestly it was quite disappointing. However, the Cold Spiced Chicken and the Chicken & Mushroom Clay pot rice saved the meal! They were both so delicious especially the clay pot rice. The Cold Spiced Chicken was tender and spicy. It was really good but just a tad bit too oily for my liking. The seaweed soup was a bit bland but it was great to cut out the oiliness of the cold spiced chicken and clay pot rice. The clay pot rice on the other hand was seriously a 5/5 for me. I haven't had clay pot rice in a while so I may be bias but I can't think of a single thing I didn't like about it. The rice was cooked perfectly. The chicken was so tender and soft. And the layer of crispy rice at the bottom was so delicious and crunchy. The vegetables and mushroom were there... but I mean you can't really screw those up. The portion sizes were really good as well. For a place that has "Hand-pulled noodle" in their name, I am quite surprised that their clay pot rice is better than their noodles haha. I would definitely come back for their clay pot rice and I think this $25 double meal set is still a really fantastic deal. Also they only take cash or debit.

    Came here for a weekday breakfast, they have breakfast deals until 11:30am on weekdays. It is a great deal with combos of congee and a side for $7.75! There was a wide variety of items to choose from, congee, rice rolls, and a variety of snacks. We got a couple of congee and snack combos and also a couple of side orders of other things. The congee portions were gigantic, more than enough for two people to share and have their full. The fried dough was good too and big. Overall a great deal and good food, lots of options to choose from. Will need to come back to try their hand pulled noodles.

    Came on a Saturday night around 8 pm for dinner. We saw lots of posts about this restaurant on social media so wanted to try. Their $25 special for 2 is only available M-T until 8 pm. We wanted to order the rice clay pot but because it takes 20 minutes to make they stop serving the rice earlier. We ordered the meat sauce dry noodles, the spicy chicken, congee with fish slices and the Shanghai pan fried buns. The meat sauce noodles was decent with the noodle texture really good but the flavour was a bit lacking and needed to add their chili sauce which was also lacking flavour. The congee texture was very watery but the fish slices was very fresh and good. The spicy chicken was very tender but also lacked flavour. The pan fry buns was ok and juicy but the wrapper thickness was inconsistent although the flavour was decent. Gave 3 stars only for the price as taste would be 2 stars.

    First time at Big Beef Bowl in Markham! I finally got to try their famous noodles and ordered the large Beef Offal with rice noodles--so flavorful and packed with meat. Great portions, great price. Can't wait to go back and explore more, especially their breakfast combo!

    Got shrimp 肠粉。 it was pretty good. Wrapper was not too thin or too thick. There were bite sized shrimp present. Service was standard and nothing to complain about. The sauce paired nicely and wasnt too salty or sweet. The place was pretty packed around 8pm. I would come back to try their beef noodle soup.

    Had a GREAT experience for my first visit here! Big Beef Bowl has their own menu PLUS a few pop-ups within their shop! It's really great that there are so many options inside one space. It is large and feels a bit like a food hall. Food is super tasty, and staff are very personable and helpful. I am a huge fan of soup noodles, and was eager to try! I loved the lamb soup boodle with extra thick noodles. Ask for scissors to help with the noodles. And the pan-fried soup dumplings are great too. HIGHLY recommend trying the Laksa, and Satay Skewers from Little Jakarta, too. Definitely will return to try more from all the different menus!

    Filled with lots of Pork meat, good portions

    Came to visit in the morning as it was leading into lunch time and noticed every table was having congee and rice rolls rather than their hand pulled noodle soup. I was intrigued and looked deeper into their menu and realized they open pretty early for breakfast. So you have the breakfast menu of cheap congee (porridge) and rice rolls if you're into that but also can get lunch during lunch hours of 11:30AM onwards if you're here for their hand pulled noodles. It gets quite busy here so it's a pretty quick meal. Not really a place for having deep conversations in. The servers seem to be always on the go since they're so busy. I always go for their meat sauce noodle which is dry without soup. I also enjoy the flat fat noodles the most since it gets all the sauce onto the noodles. Another must get for me is the san ji bao, since it's pan fried on the bottom, but has a juicy exterior with the meat. A great spot for some comfort food!

    The beef, greens and the noodles without the broth. Size "small".

    This is your quintessential bring your kids here Chinese restaurant! The decibel level is enough to blow your eardrums. LOL. Happy sounds. The food here is predictable: good quality beef, not too much fat, not salty, silky smooth hand pulled noodles enjoyed in a family environment. Prices are reasonable for this day and age. The shredded potatoes in chili oil and sesame oil were exceptional. The lamb skewers (not pictured) are a waste of time TBH.

    Located conveniently at Hwy 7 and Kennedy, the restaurant offers lots of yummy food from hand-pulled noodle to clay pot rice and snacks. The interior has a feel of the west, very casual and unique. The Shanghai Pan Fried Bun is dying for, the bottom is crispy, a mouth full of soup when having a bite. The hand-pulled noodles are made in house. The service is very prompt. Love the food here and will be back again.

    Even though this restaurant has quite a bit of seating, it was very busy during lunchtime. Also, this plaza is basically all restaurants, so parking may be hard to come by. We ordered Shanghai pan-fried bao, Chinese cured meat and sausage claypot rice. The table next to us had also ordered sang ji bao, and it turned out that the meat wasn't fully cooked. The server apologized, took back the dish, assured the customers that a new one was being made for them, and let them know that the manager was giving them a discount. That's really good customer service! Luckily, our bao was fully cooked. Perhaps a little overcooked, as the bottom of the bao was quite hard. I guess it's better to be safe than sorry. The bao was quite a bit smaller than we expected, though. For the claypot rice, we prefer it from the other restaurant in the plaza.

    We came at off peak time (4pm on a weekend) and was seated immediately. Overall, friendly service and quick food preparation. Impressed with the variety offered on the menu. It looks like two restaurants is combined in one space - Big Beef Bowl that offers Lanzhou style noodle and grills, and West Gate canton restaurant that offers congee, rice rolls, clay pot rice, dumplings etc. This makes it perfect for family groups when everyone has different cravings :) We tried the ox tail beef noodle. The broth is flavourful, noodles has a nice chew, and the meat is tender and falls off the bone. Skewers of wings, pork belly, and lamb were tasty. Cantonese cheung fan was filled with ample amount of meat and veggie. Dumplings and san ji bao were scrumptious and juicy.

    I had a very high expectation for this place. I recently am intrigued by Chinese noodle soups. I love the delicacy of the noodles' - in terms of variety of styles, the springy & chewy but soft noodle texture, and the depth/flavor of the soup. I heard this place makes fresh hand stretched noodles with a variety of options (thin, regular thick, round, flat etc). Excited to try this place! It was on Saturday close to 2pm but this place was FULL . There were a few groups waiting for table. Seated fairly quickly and servers came to our table quickly to serve hot tea and take orders. Service was attentive and super efficient. We had # Classic Beef Noodle (Size L, with flat thick noodles) : Served with a pair of scissors, because the noodles are too thick to cut with a pair of chopsticks. (It was like a lasagna!) Yes, the noodles were really thick and chewy. I kind of regretted that I should have chosen regular noodles. A bit too tricky to eat by chopsticks. Because of the thickness, it did not integrate the flavor of soup (very simple - nice - flavor) very well. The soup was good. I wished there were more meat - it is far less compared to the amount of noodles. # Fried San ji Bao : Great, crispy and juicy. Next time, I want to try different noodle thickness, with stronger soup options. :)

The service was pretty good, lots of staff, they were all fast and friendly. I got the hot and sour (one spice level) and the soup had the perfect fish and sourness. The spiciness was very mild. It had a good amount of fish, silky tofu and vegetables. I also love their rice noodle! My partner got the hot and sour (two spice level) and I don't know what happened.... It tasted so bad. Would thought it would be a spicier version of mine but his soup lacked fish flavour, sourness, spiciness - it was so bland. I would definitely be back and re-order what I got today. I also tried the original fish soup noodle and that one was good too. I would avoid the hot and sour (two spice level) at all cost...

Peking duck -- spend $69.99 and get it for $29.99 2. Sweet & sour pork -- spend $30 and get it for 9.99 until April 30 Because I wanted that Peking duck, I convinced my mom we could "totally finish all this food between the two of us." Let's just say... we did not finish it, but I definitely did my part . The duck wrappers were separated with dim sum liners so they didn't stick -- and they were so soft. Everything was delicious, and now I'm wondering why we haven't come here sooner . The staff was amazing and very attentive and the restaurant was clean. I will be back again with more people next time.

It had an ancient Chinese theme and the seating was very comfortable with these really long tables. The service was quite standard and typical. Nothing amazing. We ordered a few dishes including the Shrimp Rice Roll, Beef ho fun, Grouper tofu pot, Braised Pork Hock and their Minced Beef Egg Clay pot rice. The Shrimp rice roll was quite soft but the pieces of shrimp were quite small and it was just a bit too bland for me. The Beef Ho fun was so good. I can tell the rice noodles they used were high quality. It had a bit of a chew to it rather than it being soggy and soft. The Wok Hei was great as well and they gave us plenty of beef slices. The Tofu Grouper pot was so delicious. They used high quality fish and the portion sizes were quite good for 18$. The pork hock was also really good. It was only 8.99$. The flavor was so delicious and the pork hock itself had a "bouncy"/QQ texture. It was great. The only dish we absolutely HATED and DO NOT recommend was the Clay Pot Rice. I had a really good clay pot rice at a different restaurant 2 weeks ago so I decided to order one here as well. It was so bad. The rice was not cooked properly. The meat to rice ratio was like 1 to 10 There wasn't even any crispy rice at the bottom. and the meat itself was not tender. It was dry and rough. No wonder why I can't find any reviews of their clay pot rice online. Probably because nobody orders it. Other than the Clay Pot rice and shrimp rice roll everything else was really good so I definitely would come back again.
