We have gotten takeout from this place twice, and it is delicious. Definitely scratches the itch if you're looking for good, fresh poke. I love the combo of tuna and salmon, and I tend to go with their pre-selected options because the variety of toppings here is staggering, and a bit overwhelming! They genuinely have something for everyone - my mom went with a cooked teriyaki chicken bowl, and my dad got one with chicken and shrimp. So even if your family doesn't want raw fish, they'll be happy. The folks making the bowls are kind and helpful and polite, and it's basically similar to a Chipotle, where they build the bowl in front of you. You can see all the toppings and choose what you want, or go with a pre-selected bowl. There is some parking in front of the restaurant, or you can park in the nearby garage for free for the retails space. Nobody was eating inside, but you certainly could if you wanted! Definitely a fast casual vibe in here. read more

I was craving Bowl Lab for lunch, so I decided to visit. When I walked in, I noticed they had added some new items to the menu. I was torn between ordering my usual Pokè Bowl and trying something new. The guy assisting me mentioned that the Galbi Bowl has been a crowd favorite, so I decided to go with his suggestion. The Galbi Bowl comes with a choice of rice or all greens, along with corn, kale, edamame, red onions, and carrots. They prepare the Galbi fresh, so it's a short wait. Once it was ready, I was given shoyu and yum yum sauce to accompany it. When I finally had the chance to eat my bowl, I was extremely satisfied. The flavors were bold and flavorful, and everything tasted fresh. It was so good that I told my husband about it, and he grabbed one for dinner. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my meal and look forward to trying it again. I hope you all do not change anything because it is perfectly made. read more

Bowl Lab - Galbi Bowl - Poke Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Bow lab is one of my favorite spots to pick up food after running my errands. It's small but cute and clean space. The food is always fresh and so many options to choose from. I'm loving the Soul of Seoul (tuna and salmon bowl) right now but Hotlanta is one of my favorites. Easy parking and free. Oh and staff are nice. They are very helpful if you're having trouble selecting a meal. read more

Was feeling peckish after checking in to my hotel and decided to walk over. The line moved very fast and the staff was smiling and helpful. My bowl was tasty and fresh and provided reasonable value. Seating is a bit sparse, so have a Plan B in your pocket in case they are jammed up. read more

Their poke is undefeated, best poke I've had in a long time. Went back two days later because we were craving it again lol. 10/10

THE BEST place for a poke bowl, they do not play with their toppings and the portion sizes are the best I've had in Atlanta! It tastes amazing and the service is great. read more

Bowl Lab - POKE BOWL (LARGE) - Poke Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Visiting from out of town and staying nearby; grabbed a takeout lunch from here (spicy pork poke bowl, bulgogi Udon bowl, beef nachos) and was impressed at how fresh and flavorful everything was! Very much enjoyed it! read more

Sooo tasty, I've been several times in the last few days I'm ashamed to admit! Super generous portions, fresh ingredients, delicious sauces and fair prices for what you get. I recently discovered the cooked teriyaki salmon which is what had me returning there to get my bowl combo of that (perfect portion and not overcooked), raw salmon, mixed white rice and salad greens, edamame, corn, cucumber, pineapple, yuzu ponzu, crab salad, pickled ginger, boiled egg & furikake--I've ordered it so much, this is off the dome! Everything is super clean and it's MUCH faster, healthier and sometimes cheaper than fast food. read more

I love this place!!! Great Poke with generous portions. They keep the place spotless as well as the bathrooms. The food is always fresh and there are so many combinations. The service is always friend. read more

Ordered a bowl here on DoorDash. I went with the Poke Bowl because it was #1 Most Liked meal on the menu. I wasn't sure what to expect or what to order since it was online. So I got a few ideas from bowls they had available and Yelp. Needless to say, my bowl was delicious. I will definitely order from them again! read more

Confession time: I don't like poke bowls. If you're like me, the word 'poke' makes you think of raw fish, and perhaps the thought of raw fish evokes some queasy feelings. I get it; I'm right there with you. But I hope you won't let that keep you from trying Bowl Lab. Non-fish eaters will be happy to find out they've added gyudon beef, tofu, cooked shrimp, and chicken to the menu of protein offerings. Besides proteins, there's a lot of other customizations available, from the rice/salad base, to the mix-ins and sauces. My compunctions with my meals here have been few but notable. First, there seems to be a limit to the number of crunch toppings (e.g. onion crisps, fried garlic, rice puffs, furikake, etc.) that you can add atop your bowl. I'm a big fan of contrasting textures in my meal, so I've often wished I could add more than the maximum of two tiny spoonfuls. My other drawback is sheerly a me-opinion. There's plenty of sauces available, but I've yet to find one that hits just right for me. Some are muted, others are overpowering. My personal favorite is a spicy mayo, which most poke bowl joints seem to have, but Bowl Lab is surprisingly without. Since the sauce comprises such a significant part of the meal's resulting flavor, I've sometimes brought my own Sriracha mayo to the restaurant to ensure I'll have a happy meal. All that said, everything is always incredibly fresh. There's never any fishy smell - in the restaurant or in our bowl - and we often leave feeling satisfied with the serving size. Service here has always been quick, efficient, and polite. There's a limited number of tables and stool seating against the windows, but it's often pretty quiet in here and we've never struggled to find seats. read more

I eat here 3-4 times a week! Absolute favorite. Options are amazing. Service can be hit or miss by the son and father who work there are just WONDERFUL- always get good service when they are working. Very conveniently located to work and home. Park in the parking garage for quickest in/out ..... it's free. MUST try!!! read more

Bowl Lab is my favorite poke spot in the area! It is located in Vinings, next to Cafe Comma. It is really nice inside, and they have a good amount of seating. I appreciate that there is a free parking deck, as well as a few short term spots out front. The first time I went, I wasn't sure what to get, and the staff was really helpful to help me decide. I got the sunny salmon bowl, which is so tasty and definitely my favorite! I love the pineapple in that one, as well as the crab salad and shrimp that are added to it! You can also build your own bowl, which is always fun. The ingredients are always fresh. The pricing is good. A regular bowl is $10.85, a large is $12.95, and and x-large is $14.95. Definitely check it out if you haven't been! read more

First time trying a Poke bowl establishment and I am in love! I was looking for something semi healthy yet filling for opt and decided to try somewhere outside my normal "greens and grains" type joint. Upon walking in, I see that this is a very popular place as the staff cranked out numerous in person and online orders. Despite being busy, the staff answered any questions I had as a poke newbie and helped me create a delicious bowl read more

Came to the Bowl Lab for a healthy lunch . Traditionally I've been disappointed with the serving sizes of these poke / bowl places ( 90% rice 10% protein) as well as high prices . I must say I was pleasantly surprised here . The selection process is standard as you pick your choices of base, greens etc . I was delighted by the serving sizes and the price was fair as well - the result was a tasty lunch with all expectations met ( nice service too ) . Highly recommend read more

Food is amazingly fresh and delicious. Friendly and quaint atmosphere. The Korean BBQ bowl is awesome, my husband ate every last bite! read more

Every time I place a delivery order through Yelp, I end up with an almost empty bowl of food. The food itself is good but I'm tired of paying $30+ for a tiny bowl. This last time was not even halfway filled, including the extras I had added. My bad for keep trying. Skip food delivery from this place through Yelp. read more

This place is always spot on. Food is excellent service is about on par for Atl, building is spotless and locale is convenient.

The place is super clean and everything is fresh! We love coming here for a fresh, healthy, and delicious dinner. The staff is wonderful! Always friendly with great advice and willing to serve up the best bowls in Atlanta read more

Your food is delicious l, prices agreeable. But we have lived on the hill and been there since the beginning. The frequency of food poison has drastically increased. My wife will no longer eat here and I agree. You lost the quality due to prices and shortcuts. Please do better. read more

I came to order my food on yesterday and the meat was OLD in my bowl. It didn't look right, smelled spoiled, and I threw the entire bowl away! There also is an male employee who always wear hat who is always sneezing, coughing, and rubbing his face on his shirt. He is always clearing his throat and be sneezing while preparing the food which is VERY UNSANITARY! That is a health hazardous with him spreading his germs while preparing customers food. It is disgusting and I will never come to this location again. read more

Salmon and tuna smelled and tasted funny when I ordered towards the end of the day. Rice was clumped together and was one big blob; couldn't locate a single grain to save my life. I've had better Poke. read more

Safety: They are following strict Covid protocol, which is comforting for a place where the food is already out & assembled in front of you. They have a protective glass, and a rope in front of that so nobody can even come close to the glass or touch it. Masks are also required (on both sides). Now the food. Yum! Their food tastes so fresh and they have so many ingredients and toppings to choose from. I always get the kimchi plum aioli sauce (which is similar to spicy Mayo) and the spicy garlic ponzu (which is a spicy soy sauce type). I like mixing them together and the combination is amazing. On top of the great & fresh tasting food, their prices are also great too! Win win! read more

After eating at this place, me and my friend got the runs for 2 days. I believe the fish is not covered and not stored in cold temperature as it should beware of parasiteight. We were sick for 2 days. Also service wasn't the best, The girl behind the counter looked annoyed and Unpleasant read more

Just tried Bowl Lab for the first time and was pleasantly surprised. Worked all day at Coffee Comma and got hungry after so walked next door. I recently got into Poke Bowls and theirs is excellent! You get a great portion even with the small serving size. I ordered the Hotlanta which is one of their best sellers (i substituted salmon for the regular tuna) and it was amazing! The workers were patient and explained everything to me when I asked a few questions. There was no line and there are plenty of tables where you can sit. I'll definitely be back! read more

The poke bowls are great and I love the seaweed. Parking is pretty easy and the line moves fast. I do not recommend the nachos and the açaí bowls on the website are not at this location. read more

Great concept. Poor execution. My colleagues and I ordered lunch to be delivered. Unfortunately, each of our bowls were missing some toppings and it probably would have been better if the order was supervised in person. My bowl was extremely heavy on the white rice (80% of it) and very minimal on the salmon, tuna, and other toppings. It just seemed like they're skimping on the portions and it's not worth the cost. The bowl tasted fresh and was satisfying but I wasn't impressed. read more

Solid quality but the flavor was lacking, unfortunately I got the regular with seared albacore and salmon seasoned with spicy garlic ponzu, white sauce, and spicy mayo. read more

We came here on Saturday for a late lunch. We parked underneath in the parking garage and had no problem finding a spot, making the short walk to the restaurant. All of the spots right in front of the place were either full, or was 15 minute parking. This was right after the CDC announced vaccinated people do not need to wear masks inside, so they had indoor dining open and a few tables outside. You still had to wear your mask to come inside. They take it seriously here. We got in line and made our create-your-own orders. The prices are great and the only difference between the two sizes is an extra scoop of protein, which tare pretty generous. Otherwise, the bowl size is the same. They had so many choices, and everything was clean and sanitary. I love that crab salad was a topping, and not considered a protein like at some other places. They have a water station and a bathroom for customer use that was clean as well. We ate outside and everything tasted fresh. This place hit the spot! read more

So Fresh! So Delicious! I was full and kept eating . I did the create your own salad . The lady who was fixing it was very patient and kind. I was a bowl lab virgin and had lots of questions and request. There are no fountain drinks just bottled beverages. Which also means no ice so that's why they lost a star for me. Plus she was stingy with the crispy onions toppings I had to ask twice to add more. read more

Bowl Lab is such a peaceful environment to retrieve to. To just sit in and enjoy the Brightness, the air feels so light. It's an enjoyable restaurant, one in which you can enjoy a variety of bowls. I've had the açaí bowls as well as the poke bowls. They are both amazing, of course it depends on your taste at the moment. I had the the first and second açaí bowl on the menu, they were so refreshing and filling. The price was reasonable for it being fresh produce and the service. As for the poke bowl, I did a build my own! It's a must to add the spicy tuna and spicy crab and add up as much veggies and toppings as you like, they will come together for the greater good: TO SATIFY YOUR BELLY read more

Bowl Lab serves up Poké, Açaí, and meat bowls at this location in Vinings. The have locations coming soon to Midtown, Kennesaw, Buckhead, and Sandy Springs. There located in the Vinings Main Retail Centre on Vinings Slope, you can a few parking spots in the front of the store but tons in the garage for free. I viewed the menu online so I already knew what I was ordering prior to arriving. Upon entering we we're greeted by cheerful employees smiling. The space is very bright and clean with a minimalist look. I loved it!! All of the ingredients looked very fresh. I ordered the Sunny Salmon bowl. It included Salmon, Shrimp, Green and Red Onion, Pineapple, Masago, Edamame, Crab Salad, Pickled Ginger, Wasabi, Yuzu Ponzu, Japanese White Aioli and Coconut Flakes. It was a bowl of sunshine and each bite was delicious! The portion was perfect, beautiful presentation and fantastic price for lunch. Now I know why there was a line right before they opened and even longer one around noon. I would definitely recommend arriving when they open at 11am to avoid a long line. I'll definitely be back to try their acai bowls. read more

Bowl Lab is without doubt my favorite poke bowl location. In addition to poke bowls, Bowl lab also has Acai bowls and offer meat/tofu options as well for their bowls. You can either order a signature item or create your own bowl. I generally create my own bowl, and they allow you to pick 2, 3, or 4 protein with white rice, brown rice, spring mix, or even half and half. You get as many toppings as you want with some being an extra charge (like avocado), and unlike other locations, when you ask for extra scoops/portions of specific toppings, they happily give you more without an extra charge. My bowl is generally filled to the rim, and I have enough to eat twice out of it. To top things off, the fish quality is great and they have a huge selection of toppings. They also have a punchcard so if you come enough, you can get a free bowl. There's indoor and outdoor seating, and parking outside plus a parking deck. read more

I'm a fan. This spot is just down the street from my office and I decided to stop in yesterday for lunch. It seems to be very popular, parking is in a private lot, and you can choose your Poke'. I had no idea what that meant but I believe it is akin to "building your own bowl." They also have their own signature bowls as well. Everything is healthy, nutritious, and fresh. I couldn't ask for better. There was so much goodness in my bowl--edamame, wasabi sauce, crab salad, white rice, avocado, tuna, and honey ginger sauce. It was topped with some good crunchy stuff, namely crunchy onions and sunflower seeds. Again, I'm a fan, for a healthy, fast, and deliciously nutritious lunch. read more

Crab salad, seaweed salad, wasabi, masago, carrot 6. Furikake If you order double of anything else, you'll be charged extra (no sub). Order was overall awesome. Quick service. Yum. Too much sauce mixed (there was a layer of sauce at the bottom of all the food); so next time I'll ask for half sauce. read more

I am happy to see new concepts expand, so I was looking forward to my first visit to Bowl Lab. The food was refreshing - four stars - though the overall experience was mixed. The concept can improve with some tweaks. I got an Aloha Umami bowl, and was pleased that the ingredients were fresh and healthy. Is it poke like you get in Hawaii? Of course not. Were the ingredients a good mixture of textures and fresh ingredients? Yes, except the extra large heaping of pickled ginger. I got a large, which comes with three scoops. The Aloha Umami comes with tuna and albacore. It is not entirely clear from the menu, however, large bowls mean you get to pick the third scoop of protein. I chose the salmon. Of the three, the albacore was my favorite because it was seasoned best. The salmon and tuna were minimally seasoned, if at all. The service was two stars. First, the guy waiting on me mumbled when I ordered a large bowl, and after asking him to repeat a couple times, I finally figured out he was asking me what protein I wanted. I repeated that I wanted the Aloha Umami and he seemed annoyed then finally clarified that I get a third choice of protein with a large. I hope they are clearer to other first-timers. One of the people in my group had a scoop of fish missing from her bowl. When she asked the staff if she could get the scoop added, they looked at her like she was trying to cheat or something. She had to repeat herself several times to get a resolution. People make mistakes, but it was awkward when they could have offered a quick apology and fix. With more customer friendly staff the place could earn four stars. With a little more balance in the flavors - more seasoning, less pickled ginger - they might even get to five stars. read more

Recently visited Bowl Lab with a couple coworkers for lunch one day. I've been before and never left unsatisfied. Located in a nook next to QT, it doesn't look like much and front parking is limited, but Bowl Lab is one of the better poke options. The food is always fresh. Service is always quick. Overall, it's a great poke experience. Plus it comes at a decent price! With these spots, it's easy for them to nickel and dime customers but I never feel that way at Bowl Lab. Plus if you're new to poke, the servers are super helpful and nice and willing to answer any and all questions even during the busy lunch rush. FYI it's a small place so not a ton of seating but we were able to accommodate 6 of us and talk and eat our bowls before heading back to work. But if you're on the go, know it's a quick and easy process as well. read more
