Bowls And Cheers - Pancit Lumpia - Asian Fusion Near Me - Syracuse, Utah

See all

I had dinner at Bowls and Cheers and honestly... this place is a hidden gem. A full 10/10 experience. From the moment you walk in, the vibe is warm, welcoming, and deeply personal. It's a family-run restaurant with an open kitchen, so you can see every dish being prepared right in front of you. It doesn't feel like a typical restaurant--it feels like you've been invited into their home. And what truly sets this place apart is the people behind it. The father took the time to walk us through the menu and explain each dish in detail. The mother shared the cultural and historical inspiration behind the plates, connecting the food back to the Philippines in such a meaningful way. Their son served us with professionalism and genuine kindness. You can feel the pride, love, and intention in everything they do. What we ordered: Pork Lumpia with Sweet Chili Sauce - perfectly crispy, fresh, and packed with flavor. Sizzlin' OINK Sisig - served hot with an egg on top... bold, savory, and absolutely addictive. Lechon OINKawali - crispy pork belly done right: crunchy on the outside, tender and juicy inside. Pancit Noodles - THE BEST NOODLES EVER!!!! And for dessert: Banana - Bowlicious - fried plantains tossed in cinnamon sugar, topped with vanilla ice cream and caramel drizzle... the perfect sweet finish. Unfortunately, I don't remember the name of the fried sweet plantain banana desert but I have to say that the flavor still lingers in my mouth and my heart! Everything tasted incredibly fresh. The sauces are clearly made from scratch, and the flavors are rich, authentic, and beautifully balanced. And the value? Unbeatable. We ordered appetizers, three main dishes, and two desserts and the bill left me speechless in a good way :) If you're looking for authentic Filipino cuisine with heart, story, and flavor this is the place. Highly recommend. Thank you for an amazing last dinner in Utah! I will absolutely be back. read more

We drove the 44 miles one way to Bowls and Cheers when we heard they had great Filipino food and we weren't disappointed! Went down on a Saturday when traffic was light and easily found the restaurant in a strip mall with lots of parking. The family running the restaurant is helpful and friendly! It's a small restaurant with about 8 good size tables. A awesome menu including desserts! We got : Jam Bowl Loco - it's a healthy scoop of rice - 1/2 lb brisket burger w/ a fried egg and brown gravy all over! Hubby said best loco moco he has ever had which is saying a lot since he's has a few hundred under his belt! I got the pork BBQ Skewers (4) served with garlic fried rice and a papaya salad. I loved the BBQ pork lots of flavor and eaten with the rice and salad it was excellent! I enjoyed this dish very much and would order it again . We also got the pork lumpia which was a great start to our meal. Due to the long drive and the yummy food we decided to order the chicken adobo bowl as a take out. I can't wait to have it for dinner! Vanessa was the friendliest person she and her husband own and run the restaurant plus do the cooking. She told us they do have specials and rotate their dishes which is an awesome idea for frequent visitors. It was a great trip - no traffic - awesome food- a great little excursion read more

The wings are huge so 12 pcs was plenty for our party of three. Legitimately the best wings I've eaten. Got the 12 pc wings with tamarind sauce (highly recommend). We got the sisig, chicken adobo, and cheers a joy. Everything was really good, especially the sisig. Awesome service from the crew and we even had the opportunity to taste some of the sauces they were thinking of adding to the menu. Place was lively, restrooms super clean, and really cool to see the family-owned business owners working together. Our table was greeted immediately when walking in and we were checked in on several times during our meal. Staff was also observant in offering us wipes and water refills. Also plenty of boardgames and even karaoke for a fun night out. read more

Bowls And Cheers - Asian Fusion Near Me - Syracuse, Utah

Love trying something new and different and this is something I'd never had before. We started with the pork lumpia, crispy deep fried egg roles, with a tangy sweet sauce with a tiny kick, very good. My wife ordered the Pork Adobo Sa Gata, great flavorful, tender pork ribs over a bowl of rice, finished with coconut milk. I had the Sizzling Pork Sisig, pork belly, cooked on a skillet, with a raw egg that you mix in and cooks itself over the skillet. So much flavor! Comes with a side of rice that helps sop up the juiciness and flavor. The owners, Venessa and her husband were awesome and so friendly. We will be back to try the chicken. read more

Bowls And Cheers - Oink. Plate is hot... egg cooks when you mix it. So good. - Asian Fusion Near Me - Syracuse, Utah

Great new addition to Syracuse. We have had Filipino dishes elsewhere and were excited to try these. The lumpia and their take on sisig were wonderful. We preferred the tables in back, farther away from the music speakers. Very attentive service by our server, and the owner came by to check on us and explain their approach. The adobo chicken wings were a miss for us, but there are plenty of options for our next visit. read more

I am in town for a short while and saw Bowls and Cheers while running some errands. I am a big fan of Asian food so decided to stop in. It was a Thursday afternoon and quiet. The owner greeted and sat me. She is an absolute gem! Even if Asian fusion isn't your thing you should go just to chat with her! But their menu has something for everyone. The food was amazing, the owner was the one to prepare it as well! I am only in town once or twice a year but I will definitely be making sure that I stop in every visit. Unfortunately I was too excited to eat the food to take a picture so you'll just have to take my word for it that it was beautiful! read more

Bowls And Cheers - Best food ever!! - Asian Fusion Near Me - Syracuse, Utah

10/10 would recommend. A place you will remember eating at for their yummy food. First time trying sisig and would for sure order again with some rice and add a soup with it would pair perfect, which the owner provided a small cup of broth for me to try. Flan selection for the day was ube and this flan is a flan I will remember forever. Smooth taste and not the instant sugar taste most desserts have. The perfect not too sweet dessert making you want another slice or the slice be bigger. They told me they rotate flavors so there are others as well so depends what the flavor is of the day. Super nice staff 10/10 service. Owner super cool. Nice little place with kitchen right there so you kinda see and hear the action. Pretty clean and well maintained. Overall 5 star well deserved. read more

A place you'll never forget!! My husband and I are from out of town and looking for something different from the norm. We found this place online and thought since we've never heard of it before we'd try it. As soon as you walk in you see chefs behind the counter working on their sizzling food. The smell of spices filled your nostrils and your stomach starts to growl anxious to taste whatever they are making. The chefs were performing a well orchestrated dance moving from one side to another shouting meal up once their dance was finished. As we sat on the wood bench that was filled with pillows for those with tender bottoms, or to lean on for those aching backs you could tell the owners wanted you to feel comfortable and at home. The waiter kindly explains to this newbie of Filipino food, what the strange, to me, names were of these dishes I was excited to try. Having a non-sophisticated palate to this type of food I asked her what her favorite dish was. As she was describing the dish she closed her eyes and described it in what I thought was great detail. I saw her mouth almost salivate as the words came out as she tilted her head up toward the sky her hands came together and this pleasant smile came over her face. Without hesitation I said I want that. If a dish can make her feel like that I had to try it, even if I had no idea what I was really getting. My husband who is not as adventurous as I am got a simple dish of pork sewers with fried rice. So we sat waiting ooing and awing obviously looking at other peoples plates as they came sizzling and steaming to their tables wondering what that was and salivating over how delicious they all looked. As we sat there we noticed that as each table got their food the woman cook,who we figured was the owner, came out and spoke to the people. She had a huge smile on her face and was very vivacious making sure everyone was enjoying their food and having a good time. She came out to one table with some sort of special dish and started singing happy birthday along with two other cooks. When our plates finally came I sat looking at mine wondering what in the world did I get. It definitely didn't make my mouth salivate and as I looked over at my husband's plate I considered swapping since he picked the restaurant but I decided since I was the adventurous one I would go ahead and eat it. To be honest as I ate my first piece of fried pork belly that I dipped into the much more delicious looking sauce I thought to myself this waiter must have pulled a fast one on me or she has a very different palate than I do. I did my best to eat what I could and then I bowed out and said I'm done. I calmly sat back and waited for my husband to finish when this very bubbly, happy, beautiful Filipino woman sits down very close to me. As I turn to look at her very big smile she says "So how was it?" Now I'm not the kind of person that just blurts out how I feel about something so I kindly say "Well, it's not my cup of tea." Her smile is immediately gone as she says "No?" I tried to tell her kindly I wasn't sure what I was getting and I didn't realize it was mostly fried fat. She begins to describe what it all was and how it was a traditional Filipino food. She then tells me she will make me a whole new dish herself and she knows I will like this one. After a few more prompts from her promising I will like it I said ok I'll try. It only took about 10 minutes and with this big smile on her face she sat it down in front of me. It smelled fabulous, and yes I began to drool, but I wasn't sure how to eat it. I looked up at her and she said "Yes just get your hands in there and eat it up". So I did! My mouth exploded with flavor!!! Sweet, savory, tangy all in one! She was not lying when she said I'd love it!! As we visited with her she introduced her husband,who was also a cook and they began telling us their story and how they've only been open 8 months. I urge you to go try Bowls and Cheers and you will leave full, satisfied and full of smiles and warm hearts. read more

This spot is one of those new, shining jewels that blesses the taste buds and sings to the soul. It is possibly one of the best meals I've ever had. The large Goju dish with a giant beef bone in it can easily feed 4 hungry people. Vanessa picked my baby up like she had known him her whole life and gave him chocolates(he loved it). This place has joyful people running it who care about the dishes they make. The food is phenomenal and found in a simple tucked away place location that doesn't scream to be heard, but holds a comfortable space all its own. read more

We were sad to loose Jin's but we are happy to have this little gem. Tried the vegetable lumpia and then the pork lumpia and enjoyed them both. However the pickle dipping sauce with the vege lumpia was the star. The pork sisig is unusual with flavors you can't describe. The mushroom bowl was a delightful surprise! Jodi the waitress is ready to give you helpful advice and the new owners are so fun to be around. It's cute to see their kids helping mom out. read more

Bowls and Cheers was recommended to me by a friend as a "must-try!" Today I took my daughters and it did not disappoint. Vanessa's hospitality was second to none. It reminded me ohow warm and inviting the Filipino culture is. We started with the lumpia, excellent. Then I had the chicken adobo/rice and my daughter got the fried chicken and spaghetti. We all left with a full belly and just feeling overall happier. It was kind of magical. I wish their business so much success. read more

Follow-up review! I came back to Bowls and Cheers for a second visit--and once again, it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. This time, I tried the BBQ ribs, and they were incredible--juicy, tender, and coated in a sweet, flavorful glaze that made every bite satisfying. The blackened tilapia was another standout: perfectly cooked, well-seasoned, and not a hint of that fishy taste you sometimes get elsewhere. It was fresh, flavorful, and cooked just right. I also had the pork lumpia and pancit lumpia, both served with Thai sweet chili sauce--a brilliant pairing. The lumpia were crispy, savory, and absolutely delicious, and the chili sauce added just the right amount of sweet heat. The pancit lumpia was a creative twist that worked perfectly, giving that classic pancit flavor a fun, crunchy presentation. As always, the sides didn't disappoint. The steamed rice was fresh and fluffy, and the sweet seasoned corn was a comforting, flavorful touch. A special shoutout to owners Matt and Vanessa, who provided a sample tasting of several items during the visit. Their warmth and hospitality are part of what makes this place so special. It's always a welcoming environment with friendly faces and great food. Bowles and Cheers continues to impress. If you haven't been yet, you're truly missing out. read more

We really wanted this place to be good but it wasn't. The pan fried gyoza was very tasty but the special pork dish with garlic rice was not good at all. We wanted to have the pork skewers but they were out at 5 when they opened. Very friendly people so give it a try. You might like it. read more

I recently had the opportunity to try a new family-owned restaurant located at Syracuse, called Bowls & Cheers LLC, they offer a unique Asian American twist menu that brings out the flavor of authentic Filipino cuisine and uniquely transform its flavor into a new dimension. I tried their beef sinigang (tamarind soup), pork rib adobo sa gata (marinated in soy sauce, vinegar, calamansi, and coconut milk) which gave its flavor a different flare. I also tried their Sisig (a very popular filipino favorite made from pork jowl and ears (maskara). This cozy restaurant has left the best impressions! Hospitable hosts, delicious dishes, and most of all the beautiful presentation! The ambiance is very welcoming and charming. The atmosphere is chill and cool, but the staff and owner are really friendly. They know what they're doing and what they're talking about, and you can tell making the customer happy is their main priority. Food is excellent and for their prices it's 100% worth it. Both food and service were a stellar! So do yourself a favor and visit this lovely restaurant. Absolutely the best meal we had while in Syracuse. I highly recommend! read more

Coming from a Filipino background, there's not many places in UT where I can get a taste of homecooked-style food. Bowls and Cheers is a brand new restaurant that brings that authentic made-to-order taste to Utah with their sisig (sizzling pork ear and cheek with egg), sinigang (tamarind soup), and adobo sa gata (adobo marinated in soy sauce, vinegar, calamansi, and coconut milk). The owners are also really nice and want honest feedback from their clients to improve their recipes. Definitely worth checking out and coming back to! read more
