For the full moon last night it seemed fitting to order from Moonbowls for the first time! We love a great healthy bowl. We got the bbq chicken bowls & chicken nuggets. They were good but I will say it wasn't my most favorite bowl. I'm just a girl that loves flavor and it was lacking that quite a bit. Id go back to try something else. Ordered via Uber Eats read more

moonbowls - BBQ Chicken Bowl - Korean Near Me - Long Beach, California

Their customer service is amazing. I appreciate their quick response times and that they actually follow through with feedback given. The last two times I ordered, their chicken was dry and overcooked, and the rice undercooked. Each time I texted customer service, they apologized and said they'd address the issues with kitchen staff. After being disappointed the second time, I told them I was wary about trying them again, but they assured that they would fix the issues, and offered a complimentary item as a courtesy. I guess third time's a charm because this latest bowl did not disappoint. Everything was perfectly cooked and had equal portions. I also like that they don't oversalt their food. I feel like most places oversalt as a way to compensate for the lack of taste. I order often from here since I don't always have the time nor energy to prep my own meals. And their bowls are satisfying and relatively healthy. Thanks, moonbowls! read more

moonbowls - Chicken & Broccoli Bowl - Korean Near Me - Long Beach, California

I ordered the BBQ Chicken Bowl from Moonbowls in Costa Mesa and it definitely hit the spot! The grilled chicken was tender, flavorful, and had just the right amount of smoky-sweet BBQ flavor. I really like that they give you options for the base--jasmine rice, cauliflower rice, sweet potato noodles, or kale--so you can make it as hearty or as light as you want. Good proportions and overall being added to my OC Healthy go-to food list! read more

moonbowls - It's a One Stop shop location here with the pretty painted walls! - Korean Near Me - Long Beach, California

Sorry for the not so good looking picture, I had already stirred the bowl :) but the taste was great! Vegetables were crisp and fresh. The chicken was cooked nicely. The sauce on the side was tangy just right. And the lemon provided the right amount of citrus. Service was quick and easy. Ordered thru the app. And just followed the directions. Building was easily to find. It was clean. Parking was easy. read more

moonbowls - BBQ Chicken Bowl - Korean Near Me - Long Beach, California

I ordered on DoorDash so I've never actually been inside this place but I have to say this is some of the worst food I've ever had. So bland ! I ordered the sesame tofu and the impossible beef bowl I paid extra to sub the rice for sweet potato noodles and califlower rice. For the sides I got corn, mushroom, pineapple, kale, and sweet potato. Everything tastes like it came straight from a can and was boiled in hot dog water. The sauces claim to be spicy but the gochujan sauce is watery and their special spicy sauce is gritty aioli. The cauliflower rice has this weird bitter taste and I'm not sure if it's expired for freezer burned but it's horrible. I'm afraid to keep eating it read more

I was pleasantly surprised by the bowls. Better than I expected, tasty and nutritious.

One of my favorite to-go orders! I hope moon bowls stay around forever! I usually go for their Avocado plant based meat bowl. But I have tried the chicken options too. I once had to talk with their customer service and they were extremely friendly and responsive. All round great service. And affordable meals with delicious flavor and care taking while preparing the food. read more

2 stars for the food and price. One star because they refunded me for a bowl and gave me a $10 credit, which I appreciate, thank you. This place was shockingly bland for the heavy use of gochujang and flavors described. We ordered the sweet chicken kimchi bowl that was missing roasted corn, kale, and kimchi. It was okay for missing so much but the sauce was interesting like a mix of salsa and pasta sauce.The gochujang korean bbq cauliflower wings had more smell than taste to them. Lastly, a korean hot chicken bowl which they forgot to toss in hot and sweet sauce. We paid $42 dollars for these items using the first time 20% off coupon and it was still too expensive for the quality of this food we received. For the price of this place I recommend they focus on quality rather than quantity, which is ironic since one of the bowls is missing half the ingredients. read more

I got a spicy chicken bowl. It was very bland. There was a good balance of veggies but there was zero flavor in the chicken and there was a low amount of chicken. My co workers and I ate there at the ghost kitchen. They tried to charge for a fork and didn't give napkins. THE CUSTOMER SERVICE COUNTER GUY IS HORRIBLE AND MAKES YOU WAIT 5 min to get PERMISSION for a FORK! Give your customers utensils and napkins! read more

I'm bummed, this place had healthy options but completely failed. ZERO care in cooking. All the veggies were inedible (hard as a rock), I was given rice when (I have an allergy) when I asked for sweet potato noodles, the avocado was hard and had parts of the pit attached as it wasn't ripe and the chicken didn't taste clean, it tasted like fast food. read more

I reached out to the owner a few times and they never got back to me. Very disappointing I don't recommend this place at all, no one picks up the phones either read more

11/15 I paid 39.48$ on Uber eats for this and 2 sides of sweet potato This is what it looked like after opening the lid. 7 mini cold cauliflower wings.I used to order, not only were the portion sizes bigger but the wings were not kind of cold. This is not acceptable for a dinner. read more

Normally, I wouldn't give bad reviews for any place, as I don't have much to complain about with food. However, my order was absolutely unacceptable this time. I ordered the nuggets via Uber Eats and this was what was delivered. It didn't take me long before I noticed the texture after taking my first bite. Once I noticed, I removed it from my mouth and pulled it a part and noticed everything was undercooked except for the outer layer. Taking a knife and fork, I cut open all the pieces to see that more 95% of my order was raw and undercooked. I'm left quite speechless and when inconvenience has more to do with health/safety than preference, that's where I draw the line. read more

IMHO, rating my first experience with moonbowls, I give it 3.5 stars rounded up. In general, my Avocado Bulgogi bowl was tasty and filling. It's made with Impossible meat, kimchi, peppers, and caramelized onions. For my base, I opted for the citrus-marinated kale which didn't taste very citrusy nor marinated for that matter. Luckily I like kale and didn't mind that it was plainer than I expected. The main thing that knocked it down for me was that parts of the Impossible meat were overcooked. About 5 bites in, I bit into something super hard. It was a crunchy piece of Impossible. The rest of the bowl wasn't nearly as hard as this bite. Any other crunchy pieces, and there were only a few, were still edible compared to that super hard bite that I had to spit out. To be fair, the remaining portion of Impossible was non-crunchy and delicious. And also a generous portion. I really loved the flavors of the kimchi, peppers, and onions mixed with Impossible. I would likely give this place another shot. https://bit.ly/3EUzKPR Located at the Daisy Diner virtual kitchen, ordering moonbowls on Doordash was easy peasy. Delivery was the perfect option for us on a lazy Sunday. I like that the moonbowls menu clearly marks all vegan options, including their sauces. read more

moonbowls - Avocado Bulgogi - Korean Near Me - Long Beach, California

I found this place when looking for a quick vegan takeout meal during my lunch break... I was super confused by the ordering and pickup system, and then I learned that it's one of those facilities with multiple kitchens that is shared by a few takeout restaurants... I'm now definitely curious to try out some of the other options there! The pick up alley was pretty tight and a lot of people were there at the same time, so it was a bit chaotic. About the food - I tried the impossible avocado bulgogi bowl and sweet potato potstickers. The bowl was pretty good for vegan food, but I don't think I would opt for it next time. The fried cauliflower or chicken bowls do look delicious, so I would definitely try those! I'd skip the potstickers- the texture of the sweet potato was just too mushy for my liking. The dipping sauce was yummy though! read more

A comforting takeout meal that I was in search of! I ordered the chicken & the egg for delivery with a side of the spicy special sauce. I definitely recommend the spicy sauce, as the included ginger sesame sauce was too sweet for my liking. It's great that everything is gluten free and they also offer Impossible beef, but I would love if they offered beef for meat eaters to satisfy bulgogi cravings :) read more

Mmmmmmm! The food was sooooo good! The chicken was juicy and Korean bbq sauce was the best

Steer clear of moonbowls costa mesa location!! I hadn't eaten all day and decided to order the steak bowl . 30 minutes after eating it my stomach started cramping and I started vomiting. I threw up all night . Unfortunately I had gotten food poisoning from this place . I will never order from here again . People die all the time from ecoli bacteria . Nevertheless im now on antibiotics for the next 7 days and anti nausea medication. read more

Here's the deal. I've eaten here 4 times. The first two times have already been documented here on Yelp. Since then I've eaten there 2 more times BECAUSE I had one of the best bowls ever the second time I tried it Third time -- I got the Spicy Avo bowl. Because I was SOOOO impressed with the 2nd bowl, I got the spicy avocado bulgolgi which was unappetizing. Too much tang, too much kimchi (and I LOVE kimchi). I didn't feel great after eating it Fourth and final -- I decided to get the same bowl that I absolutely loved - the OG Avocado Bowl because I assumed that the recipe wouldn't change. Wrong! I barely got any kale (which wasn't as good as before), and the rice was different (not bamboo). The flavors just didn't hit right. Keep in mind the first time I had it, I said "HOLY FACK THIS IS TASTY." Additionally, there were issues with their website not being accurate and this location not being as open (literally) as they used to be. For the last two meals, I paid $40 + a 20min RT pickup (x 2) for this and it's honestly not worth it anymore. I've been here 4 times and I've had one satisfactory meal here. But that one time...it was AMAZING, and the owner is really nice and really cares about feedback. I still would recommend this place to anyone who with any dietary restrictions, just take advantage of the 20% off new customer coupon to see if you like it because it is expensive. For the price they're asking, I expect the food to be consistently delicious. Unfortunately 1 out of 4 times doesn't cut it for me. read more

I've ordered from them twice and absolutely loved both times; here's what I've had before: - Korean Hot Chicken: Hot and sweet oven-fried chicken with chili-dusted pineapple, pickled fresno chiles, peppers & onions, citrus-marinated kale, green onions, sesame seeds, and a side of our gochujang sauce. Served with a lemon wedge and a base of your choice. (GF) $15. - Meat lovers: Impossible "beef" and marinated chicken sautéed with KBBQ sauce, peppers & onions, marinated cucumbers, arugula, green onions, sesame seeds, and a side of gochujang sauce. Served with a lemon wedge and a base of your choice. (GF) $16. - Spicy Avocado Bulgogi: Impossible "beef" cooked with our garlic ginger sauce, sliced avocado, vegan kimchi, pickled fresno chiles, peppers & onions, citrus-marin. $16. I absolutely loved all three of the dishes; my favourite was probably the Korean Hot Chicken because the gochujang sauce was perfect! Pro-tip: Make sure to get all these dishes with the extra (free) Fresno peppers - so worth it! Now, I do have to call out that it is and can get pricey, but it's absolutely worth it! Especially since it's gluten-free/Celiac's disease - they take care to ensure their kitchen adheres allergen free prep work. If you go in person, know that this location is a ghost kitchen. Parking is terrible - you may have to drive around until you find a spot. You can also order via delivery apps as they're available there. read more

I'm disappointed, me and my husband have been looking forward to eat here and we finally were in the area and stopped by. The car situation is quite difficult because there are a lot of Ubereats and door dash people waiting for their orders and it's a huge mess because as is the alley is small and every car just finds a place to put their car with the emergency lights on. Needless to say we decided to still give this place a shot , arriving, we did not know it was one of those places that have several restaurants in house. Ordering process was easy and fast . The food however was expensive, for two bowl and drinks we paid 50 dollars for fast food??? My husband's order had a piece of plastic in the bowl. Do yourself a favor and just go to pollo loco or something it's not what it's made out t read more

1/2/2020 Update The customer service is on point. The Avocado Bulgogi is really really good. There is a huge difference/improvement in my most recent meal in comparison to my prior orders from moonbowls. The entire meal is flavorful AND juicy. The Impossible "Beef," the green onions, the sweet peppers, the shredded Kale, the Kimchi (a very distinct flavor which the Avocado softens), the citrus, the sauce, and the Avocado mix very well together in a bite/mix. read more

When I decided to order here, I asked the staff if they had anything with vegetables. They said everything comes with vegetables! So I ordered the Korean chicken bowl with a side of fries! Delicious.

moonbowls - The staff carefully curated a delicious bowl. I also got some moon fries on the side, which came hot, just the way I like it! - Korean Near Me - Long Beach, California

My new go-to spot when I don't know what to eat, or when I'm craving a hearty & healthy meal! You HAVE to try their crispy cauliflower. I'm not a vegetarian, but I prefer their crispy cauliflower salad over their other salads with meat. Paired with the sesame dressing is so perfectly balanced. They give you a lot of the cauliflower as well! I always have leftovers and will chop up some extra greens to pair with the next day. I also surprisingly like their fries a lot LOL the seasoning on it isn't too overpowering and it's got the nice crisp-chewiness of a good plate of fries. I like to dip it in the spicy sauce. read more

The bowls were delicious and the sauce was tasty, even though they are known for low calorie sauce options. We got the Korean spicy chicken and the avocado bulgogi and both were yummy.

When I try out the healthy bowls that is Korean-inspired, I was really excited.

It was delicious....until it wasn't... My husband told me he'd been eating at an LA location for his lunch breaks at work and that I should try it. We ordered the Bbq Chicken Bowl and it was really good. We ended up having it delivered a couple more times and the third time I woke up with an upset stomach. We both got food poisoning from what we're assuming was the chicken. Our sons had the fried chicken bowls and were unaffected, so I am going to assume we got sick due to how the bbq chicken was prepared. I'm really disappointed because the food was tasty. read more

Hi when I used to order moon bowls via Uber eats the food quality used to be better. Crispy well portioned !!! and seasoned with a Korean kick Recently I've ordered in these past 2 weeks and the quality has not been good. First the cauliflower used to be crispier and more seasoned (with a tangy kick) now it's a bit bland and soggy. I ordered a Side of sweet potatoes for 4 $ and received what it looked like 2 teas spoons of sweet potatoes in a can also lacking seasoning, In addition some of the food was cold. I'm starting to think they are made different days and stored idk. ? read more

moonbowls - Don't Call it a come bk cauliflower bowl with sesame rice - Korean Near Me - Long Beach, California

I ordered two of the Avocado Bulgogi Bowls through Postmates. The order arrived beautifully packaged and with utmost care. I appreciated most of the bowl except for the impossible bulgogi. It's not moonbowls themselves, impossible meat just has a weird play doughy/idk-what-it-is but has an off-putting taste to it. I've tried to like impossible meat in multiple forms (burgers, nachos, tacos) but there's something about it that just doesn't sit with my tastebuds. Maybe the bulgogi could've been a tad more seasoned to mask the signature impossible-meat-taste better. The place is listed as "Korean" so I thought there would be some kimchi of some sort. I think that's what the bell pepper/onion stirfry stunt-doubled for. I would try some dishes from this place again. Probably the cauliflower dish and the chicken bowls. The avocado and rice were lovely. read more
