One of my life long BFF's just so happens to be Asian and when she said, Spence, let's meet up at the new Asian all-you-can eat spot Hungry Bowl, you know I said yes. She raved about her two prior experiences so this was a no brainer. Formally TGIFridays, the owners did a remarkable renovation job to where you'd never believe this used to be a Friday's! Unlike your typical Korean BBQ, Hungry Bowl does it a bit different. Similar to your normal Korean BBQ you order on a IPad, however, they cook your selections for you and serve them hot and ready to eat. If you like the traditional way of cooking the food yourself, this place may not be for you. My friend may be small in stature but man she can eat.. Lol! She ordered a little bit of everything. We had several sushi selections, Ahi Tuna, grilled shrimp, calamari, shrimp tempora, BBQ salmon and she had a noodle entrée. I'm sure I'm leaving something out but I know I left fat and happy. Everything was delicious! I especially loved sushi and the Korean BBQ. The (short ribs and beef Bolognese) were finger licking good! PS.. You get this elaborate experience for only $30pp. Very hard to believe but it's true! Soon, alcohol will be served which will make fun times even funner!! read more

We went early on a Saturday afternoon. We tried going in the past but the wait was over an hour and I'm not that pressed to wait for food especially when I was hangry at the time. Food was fresh Place was clean Servers visited often to refill drinks and to check in on you. You order extra food items on the iPad that's at your table. Pay close attention to note on the table. There is a charge for leftovers/take out AND even if you don't want to take the leftovers there might be a charge for excessive food waste. We took our leftovers and was charged a little over $8. That's cool because it was a whole meal once I combined my food with my husband's in the container. The young lady mentioned the additional fee: 8.99 per pound. Lucky for me I read the note beforehand so I wasn't surprised. Security was posted up inside the restaurant at the front door. I believe that security is there because people must get rowdy when the fee is mentioned. I have never seen security in a restaurant at 12pm. Needless to say, I came. I ate. It was delicious BUT I never hafta come back here again. Ever. read more

Finally got a chance to head to hungry bowl and it was worth it! Heads up, they do take reservations but I overheard the hostess telling someone over the phone that they need to come in person to make their reservation and place a deposit. Otherwise, if you're willing to wait, you can come and put your name on the waitlist for that day. We came here on a Saturday pretty close to the time they opened and overall the average wait time was anywhere between 45 minutes to an hour and a half depending on your size of your party. Food wise, they offer a huge variety between the Mongolian Grill, sushi, and Korean barbecue. My personal favorite was the surf and turf sushi, and the bulgogi. They were very generous with the size of the fish. They served in the sushi rolls, and I also think the garlic shrimp was really good too. I was not too impressed with their appetizers compared to their other offerings. Despite ordering from the tablet, the service was amazing. Shout out to our server, David! He was constantly checking on us, making sure we were taken care of, but not overbearing. The food came out very quick and I would say on average we waited no more than 5 to 7 minutes after placing the order through the tablet. I would highly recommend hungry bowl if you're in the area or if you're with a large party of picky eaters or people who just like different things. read more

We came in to try this place. It's the weekend so it's $31.99 for all you can eat. We don't eat much so this doesn't work for us. Then if you need to take food home it's an additional $7.99/$8.99 per pound. The service was ok, honestly after that we decided to leave. The place had good music and looked clean. Not many people were in there but happy hour is from 2pm-6pm Monday -Friday. read more

We came to Hungry Bowl in Bowie for my wife's birthday dinner, and I'll say this right away, the Mongolian grill is the star of this place. There are a lot of options when building your bowl. Beef, chicken, shrimp, pork belly, onions, green onions, green peppers, mushrooms, and plenty more. You choose your base like lo mein, udon, rice noodles, white rice, brown rice, or fried rice and build it exactly how you want it. If you like customizing your food, this is definitely your type of spot. It's $29.99 for all you can eat and everything is included. We definitely left satisfied. If you come hungry and plan to try a little of everything, it feels worth it. Be prepared to wait. We had about a 1.5 hour wait and the place was packed. Luckily, it slowed down around the time we were seated, so it felt more manageable once we got inside. The atmosphere is loud and fun. It works for a date night, but it's also perfect for a big group. It's more lively than intimate. For sushi, we ordered the Naruto roll and it was really good. It tasted fresh and clean. The short ribs were decent, and the garlic chicken was solid, but I could have done without them. The Mongolian grill easily carried the experience for me. One thing I was not a fan of is how you leave your bowl on the counter after building it. You just set it there and walk away for the staff to grab. With limited counter space and several trays sitting there, it felt crowded. Even after it slowed down, there were still five or six trays waiting. People behind you end up shifting things around, and I am just not a big fan of walking away from my food while others are standing over it. I can see that area getting backed up quickly during peak hours. The restaurant was pretty clean. We came near the end of the dinner rush, and for that time of night it was still in solid shape. Our waitress was great, very thorough and attentive, and made sure we were taken care of the whole time. Overall, this is a great spot for people who like variety. Between Mongolian grill, Korean BBQ, and sushi, even a picky eater should be able to find something that works. read more

*Tiktok convinced me* I have frequented the surrounding area - being raised close and was more familiar when this establishment was Fridays but I am LOVING Hungry Bowl. There was a 2-hour table limit and it was perfect timing for my cousin and I. The concept of this restaurant is great, where you have the option to either order your meats, sushi, and appetizers a la carte and/or enter the 'grab & go' section of the establishment to grab your meats, sauces and sides. If all of this makes sense... anywayyyy what's important is that the TASTE is present in either choice that you make. I would love to go here again. On the way out you have the option to take your food to go for $7.99/lb which in the grand scheme of things is not a bad price. For two people our total with to-go weighed.. was roughly $70. So!...5 stars from me! read more

TLDR: Hungry Bowl is Bowie's go to spot for all you can eat sushi, Korean BBQ, and Mongolian stir fry under one roof. Expect a wait, but the system is efficient and the food is worth it. If you want to see where Bowie comes alive on a weekend, head to Hungry Bowl around lunchtime. We showed up at noon on a Saturday and the place was absolutely packed. Full capacity, buzzing energy, and a quoted 30 minute wait. Thankfully, their system is dialed in. They take your name and number and send you a virtual waitlist link that shows your place in line and estimated time. Our wait ended up being closer to 20 minutes, which felt very reasonable given how busy it was. Once seated, our waiter immediately came over and explained how everything works. Each table gets a tablet to order sushi, Korean BBQ, soups, salads, and apps. You also get a physical table card for the Mongolian grill station. That is where you walk up to a buffet line, load a bowl with raw ingredients, hand it off, and they stir fry it fresh and bring it straight to your table. The tablet menu is extensive. Specialty sushi rolls, bulgogi, Korean short ribs, fried apps, you name it. The Mongolian line is just as impressive with everything from fresh veggies to marinated steak, scallops, and shrimp. The sauce selection alone means no two bowls have to taste the same. We ordered about half a dozen sushi rolls, Korean short rib, bulgogi, and a few fried appetizers before heading to build our Mongolian bowls. By the time we finished at the grill station, our tablet order was already waiting at the table. Wicked fast service, especially for how slammed they were. The fried apps like calamari, shrimp, and katsu were solid but not something I would double up on. The real surprise was the sushi. Generous cuts of fish and some genuinely creative rolls. The surf and turf roll with torched steak over a spicy lobster roll was a standout and something you do not see everywhere. The Korean BBQ was also excellent. The bulgogi in particular was well marinated and delivered tender, savory bites with great umami flavor. When our Mongolian bowls arrived, they were piping hot and perfectly cooked. After finishing an 11 mile run at the gym earlier, this absolutely hit the spot. Overall, Hungry Bowl delivers variety, speed, and quality in a fun, high energy setting. It is a great choice for groups who cannot decide on one cuisine and an even better choice if you are looking to refuel after a serious workout. Definitely one of the hottest spots in Bowie. read more

My first time here and i enjoyed the speed and quality of the service here. food was SUPER fresh even the fish, crab, eggs and all the beef and chicken is so clean and prepped in front of you! The restaurant may have a long wait being that it's newer, but it's totally worth $55 and all you can eat! No excuse not to try everything on the menu as long as you can stomach it! Once the bar will complete the ambiance in there will go off! The music and staff are amazing read more

Came here for kevins birthday lunch. Smaller parking lot but def worth eating in. Lunch special is a little cheaper than the dinner prices. We ordered a round at the bartop. Lychee martini, passionfruit mule, and some beers before our table. We had a table for lunch and got some apps before we built our own bowls. The bowls only took about 10 minutes to cook. The bowls had a huge variety of veggies, meats, and carbs to make your bowl out of. They had about 10 different sauces too to try. Apps came out very fast. We ordered sushi, and the rolls were delicious! Dessert was also splendid, strawberry cake was our favorite! We will definitely be back. Great prices for lunch! 4.5 out of 5 since they had Pepsi products. Jake n kev n D read more

The place was definitely busy on a Saturday evening. Not great, but not the worst. Some things I enjoyed more than others. The place definitely gives the feel that they just opened and that they are still working on a few things. A definite plus was the variety of options for the buffet. On the more negative side, some of the sushi didn't taste fresh. In particular, the spider roll. It didn't taste or look like it contained real crab. Pro Tip: Check it out when it's cheaper for lunch and then go back if you enjoy it. read more

Parking: There is plenty of parking in the lot outside. Wait time: We had to wait a hour to be seated. They gave us link to see where we were in the waitlist. There was some shopping places across very close by, so we were able to go browse there to spend time while watching where we were in line. Food: it was unlimited for sushi, korean bbq and mongolian bbq. We were able to order sushi and korean BBQ from a little ipad looking thing. They had specialty sushi as well but it was included in the price; there was no up charge. I liked that the food came in small quantities, so we could try a lot of dishes. My favorite the korean short rib and shrimp tempura sushi. They also had some interesting sushi choices for those of us that like cooked sushi, like a lobster and steak roll. For the mongolian bbq bowl we went to an another section, where you could build a bowl to put your starch, vegetables, and meats. There were a lot of options, shrimp, squid, fish, zucchini, broccoli, different types of noodles (lots of options). We were able to out our table number down and go back to our table. Everything was brought to us cooked. Everything we tried was really flavorful. And our bill for 2 was around $63. We did want to take some food home and that was an additional $8.99 pound. It was a fun experience and we will definitely go back. read more

5 stars 5 stars 5 stars!!! This is AYCE and the pricing is extremely reasonable. We went on a Sunday and it was $29.99. On the weekdays I believe you can it for lunch time for $22.99. A steal these days! The selection across the board has something for everyone and also includes desserts. I unfortunately can't remember our waitresses name but she was absolutely top tier! It starts with understanding the process if you've been before, if not they will explain. To help you before you go, you get to order most sushi and apps from the iPad and the server for the rest. You then receive a card which you will place on your tray that gets handed to the cooks after you load up your bowl. This card is reusable to go for seconds. It allows you to check if you want rice/starch options or if you have allergies. You order your apps/sushi and go load up your bowl with all the goods. Noodles, vegetables, meat and poultry. One thing that threw me off which is now understandable but at the end they have seasoning for you to add to your bowl. Salt and pepper, Badia Complete, Badia Cajun, and Badia Lemon Pepper. We went with a mixture of complete and Cajun. After the sauces were also a lot of options, chili sauce, teriyaki, yum yum, soy, spicy chili, and more. It didnt take long for it to come back to the table. The only comment Ill make is with one line for self serve, you can run into people who are indecisive and take forever to add to their bowl. If there was a way to have two lines that met in the middle that might improve some of the slowness during peak hours. All in all, we'll absolutely make the drive back from DC to dine here again! += !!! read more

If you love Asian food, Hungry Bowl must be on your foodie list. They have Mongolian Grill, Sushi, and Korean BBQ. My husband and I stopped in last night and it was buzzing. They opened less than a week ago and a great addition to the Bowie area. It's basically all you can eat. You pay a price (lunch , dinner or kids price) and can throw down! You order appetizers through their menu and certain things like soups you order with your server. You then go to the grill to pick out your base like rice, noodles , veggies, then meat and sauces. Then you had it to the grill master who takes your order and server brings to your table. They don't serve alcohol yet. So, we ordered Pepsi products. I had Dr. Pepper. This is great for date night, groups, or a casual meal. read more

Hungry Bowl - Mongolian Near Me - Bowie, Maryland

A welcomed addition to the growing Bowie food scene and pretty good for Day #2 of being open. Our sever was quick to greet us and give us an overview of the menu, and was very attentive throughout our meal. The sound track seemed to be almost the same as it was when TGI Friday's occupied the building and was a mix of early 2000's R&B. The self serve bar for creating your own Mongolian bowl was well stocked with a variety of fresh vegetables, and meats with a full spice and sauce bar. Each bowl came out perfectly cooked, although they took a while. The BBQ was cooked in the back and brought out to table by our server. The Karaage Chicken was more of a Chicken Katsu rather than what is traditionally referred to as Karaage Chicken. The sushi was okay but was covered in sauce which took away from the flavor. Looking forward to giving Hungry Bowl another chance in the near future; hopefully the new owners will keep the parking lot clean (there was a lot of broken glass on the side closest to the entrance). read more

I loved Hungry Bowl! My only wish is that they offered more seasonings . I would bring my own seasoning to put in the bowl next time. The appetizer menu is great ! I loved the sushi !

My uncle told me about this place and although I avoid AYCE places, I was open to try this because it isn't a smorgasbord style. There is an AYCE menu, you pick your items and they bring them to your table. The menu is located on an iPad: from appetizers, sushi, Korean bbq, and desserts (ice cream only). You also have an option to create your own hibachi bowl that is cooked for you and brought to your table. I was surprised of the options available from chicken, beef, pork belly, and seafood. They have varying sauces to choose from and you're expected to season your bowl yourself. I enjoyed this idea; although, I found that my bowl was a little salty for my taste. I tried the seaweed salad, beef short ribs (you get one per order), beef bulgogi, shrimp tempura, and various sushi rolls. Overall, I was pleased with everything that I had. The seaweed salad was delicious and the sushi was fresh. I really enjoyed the short ribs, we ordered many of those. There is a limit on how long you can stay (2hrs) and if you choose to take food home it is priced per pound ($8.99). There are some kinks to work out, as at times our orders did not come, and it was a little awkward because I felt that the manager was watching you when there was a lapse in ordering to push tables. It is open and easy to get around; although the floors were crazy slippery in the seating area and the bathroom. Our server was awesome and attentive, and I received a discount for my birthday. I'll go back, next time, I'll avoid all the rice dishes and fill up in protein!! read more

Well worth the wait!!!! Went for lunch on MLK Day with my bestie. The wait time was about 50 mins and we were able to sit in our car for the duration. We were warmly greeted and taken to our table. Our waitress Sontee was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!!!! I'll be asking for her every time I go. Such excellent customer service skills!!!! The food - DELICIOUSNESS!!!!!! You order your appetizers from the tablet on the table, then go make your bowl. By the time you get back to your table, your appetizers are arriving. By the time you are done your appetizers, the bowls are arriving. My experience here was great and I'll return again for sure. read more

The service was good. They bought the crab soup at the end and I was full! This place means it when they say all you eat. I had several appetizers and the bowl. It's a lot ! Make sure you go hungry. I missed a couple of meals so I was ready. The crab soup tasted a litter strange. It was a crab stock base but no crab meat. It took me a minute to understand what was going on. Well you have to pick out the ingredients then they cook it for you on a gigantic grill. Then they bring you to food to your table. Don't forget your card with the type of rice you prefer. This is an interesting way to eat lunch. The ambiance is nice. They have a bar but no alcohol yet. They are waiting for their liquor license. read more

At Hungry Bowl, the all-you-can-eat concept lets you choose between Mongolian stir-fry, sushi, or Korean barbecue. We opted for the Mongolian stir-fry--a build-your-own bowl experience where you pick ingredients and sauce, and the chef prepares it fresh. While you can go back for more, one bowl was satisfying enough. With its friendly service, patient staff, and very reasonable pricing, it's like enjoying a gourmet meal without the gourmet bill. read more

Took my daughters to the restaurant around Valentine's day, this year (2026). Very small on the inside. I expected it to be bigger. You have to walk back and forth to get your food cooked by the chefs, etc. That was very uncomfortable because of the space. Didn't like that at all. Cool concept but I wasn't impressed with the food or the environment. The service was ok. Way too small for me, especially with everything going on. My daughters liked it but I've had much better service, ambiance, and food. read more

Fun and full is how I can explain this new establishment. Everything was explained to me on how things work and from there I was full full full. A buffet that allows you to dictate how you eat. You get in line and then go around and pick what you want. I started off with raw vegetables, and then you pick raw meat from beef, chicken, and so forth. Then you season your food and pick the type of rice you would like. Then you leave it there and they cook it on a round platform. Afterwards they bring it to you. The food was delicious and I was full. Noodles rice and Vegetables and meats were delicious. The ambience was good. I will be back read more

New Mongolian BBQ AYCE spot in Bowie. It's not far from DC, so that was a huge plus. If you've been in the DMV in the earlier 2000s you probably remember the Mongolian BBQ near silver spring I think. Think of that when you come here... but elevated in a sense. The entire food menu, including the BBQ is AYCE, and very affordable in my opinion, at $29.99 and more affordable for lunch! Like many of the new AYCE restaurants, you have to walk in a put your name on the wait list. It was SUUUUUUPER busy when we arrived and after putting our name on the list, waited about 45-50 minutes for a table for 2. Pack your patience. What I really like about this place is that when you go up to make your Mongolian bowl, you give it to them and they bring it to you once it's prepared, so no waiting there for it to finish. The toppings all looked fresh and there was a decent variety of noodles, rice, veggies, meats, seafood, seasonings and sauces. There was also a vast menu of sushi to order along with other sides, appetizers etc. They're waiting on their liquor license so the bar is just seating right now but I can imagine it'll be even more popular once that's added. The staff was pleasant and helpful, making sure to explain how everything works. Our waitress also made sure we always had what we needed, but wasn't overbearing. Love that! I'll be back... maybe while everyone is at work and school, but I'll be back! read more

I saw this place featured on IG by a friend of mine. And I figured my son and I would go as he is always sending me places to check out. So we went. First pack your patience. As the wait is worth it but it's a WAIT!! We waited for about an hour. There is no reservation allowed or call ahead. But it was pretty packed. We finally got our table after an hour wait. The waitress came over and explained how to order. She was very nice and respectful. And the ambiance is cute cute. They have a bar tabletop where you can order food. The huge grill in the middle of the restaurant where they cooked food was lit. I mean they had about 3-4 cooks there. They were cooking like up to 10 bowls at a time. It was amazing. So the waitress gave us an iPad to order our food on. And explained how the process works. We ordered sushi to start. Then went to the grill. The grill bar had all the fresh trimmings of meat and produce. There were a lot of options . And then the sauces and spices. I was blown away because it was so many of them. The bowl I created was overflowing but it did cook down lol. My son was full and satisfied. We will return again. If you are in the Bowie area check them out. It's not expensive if you go during lunch. The only thing is they don't sell alcohol. read more

I came here for lunch. We arrived when they first opened so it wasn't very busy. The staff were friendly. Our waitress too her time to explain the menu and how everything worked. It was a nice chill atmosphere. We ordered sushi and preceded to the station where you pick the items you like in a bowl and the chefs cook it for you. What I loved about it was the variety. There were so many choices. There is something for everyone. If you have allergies they ask that you let them know. After you get your veggies and protein you have a large array of sauces and seasonings. I appreciate the option of being able to taste the sauce to see if you like them. They have all kinds of seasonings from lemon Pepper to Montreal steak seasoning. After you make you bowl you then had a seat and they will bring your food to you. My bowl as delicious and the shrimp were cooked perfectly. Lunch was under $25 for all you can eat. Even with just one bowl and our sushi I definitely got my moneys worth. I will return. Maybe for dinner there are more seafood options at dinner. read more

Tried them out for the first time tonight and can't wait to go back. Everything was fresh and delicious. We had a party of four and we each got a LOT of sushi and appetizers as well as the Mongolian grill. The only thing that any of us could complain about was the calamari. It was just okay. I highly recommend the surf and turf sushi roll and the mango. The short ribs appetizers was out of this world. Our server, McKenzie was fantastic. It being our first time there, she explained how thing works and she was on top of everything. I give her 5 stars on her own. Now for the cons. They do not have their liquor license. They are in the process so not points removed for that. They do have a long wait (45 min - 1 hr) but I will not remove points for that either. The are a recently opened restaurant and the food is great. Everyone wants to hit the new hot spot. read more
