It had been a hot minute since I last visited Red Bowl, but my revisit was a pleasant surprise. I am never going to find my favorite Szechuan dishes here, but now I know that I can still have a tasty and fulfilling meal here. In terms of options, Red Bowl is truly an ASIAN Bistro. There are many different stir fries, noodles, and other dishes that range from Chinese to Thai and Japanese. My friend and I went the Chinese route. He ordered their seafood fried rice and I found the flavor to be really good! There was plenty of seafood in the dish and the fried rice was on the saltier side, just how I like it. I ordered their Mongolian Delight, because of the spice it had. There were large chunks of shrimp and chicken, with saltiness, spiciness, a little bit of sweet, it was quite good. It was a little oily, that was the only bad thing. I had a buy one get one free coupon so I found the experience to be quite good, but without it, this place can be a bit expensive. Otherwise, this is a nice casual place to get some Asian food, nothing too crazy! read more

This place is absolutely awful. The wonton soup had absolutely no flavor. The pork in the pork fried rice looked and tasted like tiny little slimy link breakfast sausage. The manager did not care. I guess they get enough business that they no longer need mine. I wouldn't go back if they paid me. Good luck if you go there maybe you'll have a better experience read more

Red Bowl Asian Bistro - Pork fried rice - Asian Fusion Near Me - Cary, North Carolina

I found the food here to be quite tasty, the service was prompt and friendly, and the ambience was warm welcoming and stylish. I got the Dragon and Phoenix and it was very good. I asked if it was spicy and they said no so I asked if they could make it spicy and they did and i think it made it so much better: the sushi was good. Tasty and came out quick. At first glance I thought the speciality rolls seemed over priced but all the sushi BOGO free so it balances out. Not sure why I never made it in but I'll be back. read more

It's okay. The sushi is much better than the chicken. I mainly order from here because it's the closest to me walking distance.

Got takeout from here recently and thought it was decent. Everything I tried (potstickers, sesame chicken, and egg rolls) were all passable - nothing extraordinary, but they got the job done. I would potentially come back here if I was craving some standard Chinese food, but I wouldn't drive out of my way, if that makes sense. read more

It's a bit or miss kind of spot. Some days it's amazing and others not so much. My husband dubbed the pad Thai "meh" and today my sushi was also mid. The hostess is always kind but the server needs more support. I'd highly recommend Sushi 9 in Raleigh for a great experience. read more

We went there for Christmas Eve. This was the worst food we've ever had. Edamame was lukewarm, Calamari was like chewing on a rubber hose. Appetizers were small for the price! Drinks were watered down. My husband got a neat bourbon and the color was like a ginger ale and it tasted like water! Vodka tonic with lime and a splash of cranberry tasted like just cranberry juice! They clearly water down the drinks. Food portions were larger, but unfortunately the food was way too spicy (not indicated on the menu) and really greasy. General Tso's was too spicy and sweet n sour chicken was too greasy! Spicy Mongolia beef was bland and tasteless! read more

The food is always piping hot and delicious! Fresh totally fresh and fast. We appreciate their consistency having great food week after week. read more

The service was good, the food was not. The rice in the sushi rolls was overcooked/ too much water. Fried appetizers either were sitting waiting to be served or held warm under a heat lamp. Unfortunate. read more

I enjoyed the spicy crab roll with the ginger soy sauce. The customer service was excellent and the restaurant was clean.

Best Chinese, Good Thai, and passable sushi in the Cary/Apex area. It's a great date spot but can handle groups. If you are hankering for New York style Chinese, this is your spot. The service is amazing. 10/10 reccomend. read more

I wanted asian food tonight and decided to try the Red Bowl Asian Bistro. The ambiance is nice and the waitress was friendly. We started with a crab Rangoon app and the dish was nice and crispy and the filling was filled with cream cheese but I would have liked a bit more cream cheese filling with each bite. I ordered the shrimp lettuce wraps and they were filled to the brim with shrimp and veggies. The sauce that came with the dish was creamy and delish. I enjoyed my dinner and will definitely return to try another dish. read more

Easily one of our favorite Asian spots in the triangle. We don't live in Cary anymore so when we're in the area it's a must! It's also our annual Christmas meal with my in-laws and we look forward to it every year. Always hot and fresh, can't recommend it enough! read more

Currently sitting here with symptoms food poisoning after ordering the ginger beef stir fry 40 mins after consuming. Feeling so terrible I had to come leave those review . Do not order from Here. I will never come here again. read more

Our first time at this location, but it will not be the last. They were one of the few Asian places that was open at 4:00. They do have a lunch menu that looked good but we were too late, even though it was our lunch. We were seated quickly but had to wait an unusually long time for our waitress, as there was only one other table at the time. We ordered our drinks and they were brought quickly. Hot tea for me was in a nice pot that kept it hot. The menu is large and includes many different sushi options, appetizers, soups, and the usual offerings. The atmosphere is calming and relaxing, nicely decorated. Even the bathroom was nice and clean. I had a rice noodle dish with shrimp and chicken. It needed a little more flavor, so after a long wait I got some soy sauce. There's none on the tables. The other dish was shrimp and broccoli in a nice brown sauce with a choice of white or fried rice. I had a bite and liked it a lot. My review for here is 3.5 as the waitress was not busy but very hard to get her attention and did not check on us on her own or offer refills, etc. The food was a solid 4.0 so we will return, but it will be during lunch hours and hopefully get better service. read more

Overall, very happy with the food and quality. Ordered take out and it hit the spot. Nice portions and I think the price is right for what you get. I have not dined in, but I know they offer BOGO SUSHI for dine in only. read more

We went after church and the food was absolutely fantastic! Best mongolian beef we have had in a long time. Restaurant was clean, the cocktails and drinks were wonderful. Service was good and we will be back! read more

Previous takeout was great, but dined in and got mild food poisoning after sushi and chicken

We've ordered from this restaurant consistently for years and so far we've never had any issues or complaints with the food or service. However, the last time we ordered there was a large nail clipping sitting in one of our dishes (almost an inch long). It made us feel very uncomfortable and uneasy to eat anything else from the order. read more

If you haven't noticed or been paying much attention, I love Asian cuisine and could easily eat some form of it, 5+ days a week. More specifically, I love sushi. So what to do when you're working late one night, have a $20 off code through a 3rd party service and you're starving for some delicious, clean eats? You bet your ass I ordered sushi and ordered from Red Bowl Asian Bistro for the Mrs. and myself. WoW! Yes, I spelled that correctly because the portions, quality and flavors will take your tongue on a roller coaster thrill ride. The rolls we ordered were the Flaming Phoenix Roll; Volcano Roll; Wolfpack Roll. Each one was wonderful and I cannot pick a favorite. I'll be ordering from here again or going to visit to dine in now. I've read some reviews that were less than praiseworthy but I also noticed none of those reviews included sushi items. Maybe that's what the sweet spot is here because it was very...very good. Thank you for an amazing meal. I'll be ordering so much more from your spot in the future. 5 stars!!! read more

Our lunch was okay at Red Bowl Asian Bistro. Service was very friendly. I think everything had a pretty good flavor, but it seemed like the quality of the chicken was not great, which makes the whole meal. For the price, we might try a different place next time. read more

Another excellent meal nearly a month to the day of our first visit. This time I got the cashew shrimp bento box with fried rice, salad and ginger dressing, and a California roll. The cashew shrimp was sooo good I couldn't stop praising it. I asked for a bit more sauce and glad I did. It was delicious. The ginger dressing had a bit of a bite, at least for me, so I'd choose a different option next time. The sushi roll was big and very good. The portion size of each item was bigger than I thought it would be so I ended up bringing home a good amount of cashew shrimp and a ton of rice, but I managed to finish the sushi and salad just fine! My spouse and I enjoyed our meals so much we may come here for Christmas instead of where we were going to go! read more

It wasn't busy but it was super good. We made a special request to the kitchen bc it wasn't busy & they did it begrudgingly. The Tom yum soup when I came out I was like....... But it was so good. Our server was nice. Good experience read more

I went here for a late lunch a few days ago. I took advantage of the 10.99 two roll sushi deal, which came with your choice of miso soup or salad, as well. The miso soup was great for a cold day. The sushi was good for 10.99 sushi. One of the spicy rolls was a lot spicy than the other. I really liked the one that had the slight crunch to it, I believe it was the spicy salmon one, which was my favorite. The spicy crab was the other, which was also good. The service was a little slow. I was the only one there so I was a little surprised. I would like to try their Japanese options as these may be better than the sushi there. I wasn't able to find the non-alcoholic beverage list on any of the menus, maybe I was just overlooking it? Staff were nice and I felt that it was clean and safe. read more

Consistent great food. Egg rolls are delicious, and the fried rice and noodles are op. We usually get take out, so not sure about dining service. read more

I ordered sushi here for lunch and found it to be just "okay," but nothing necessarily extraordinary. I will order another entree on my next visit. The restaurant is in a great location central to many other amenities. read more

We love Red Bowl!! The egg rolls are crispy and delicious. The fried rice, lo mein, Singapore rice noodles, garlic chicken - ALL delicious! We order Red Bowl food for lots of special occasions! read more

Food was very good I was pleasantly surprised with the decor and the service was wonderful

This was a great place! We came here for dinner and I thought it would be pack but it was a slow night. The wait staff was super friendly and very fast at getting our order and drinks. I ended up having a Bud Light but my boyfriend got a cosmo which was AMAZING!!! The food was so good I only got a picture of my food and was too busy eating it all! Highly recommend if you are in the area. read more

Just ordered a Mongolian beef dinner at red bowl in Cary last night. Check out the video I just uploaded. All you can see are onions. Nothing but onions. I had to dig around the bowl to find 3 little pieces of beef. DO NOT EAT HERE. EVER!!!!!!!! read more

Pretty good food. We had a party of 8 so they put us in a separate room. Server was a little slow. All in all not bad

This used to be a favorite. Unfortunately the service has gone way downhill. Food comes out at all different times. My daughter finished eating before my food came out. This has happened more than once. The walnut shrimp is still fabulous and I love the crispy tofu. However given service issues, this is now a take out only place for us read more

My toddler loves the fried tofu, so that's a win. But I ordered the spicy Mongolian beef and it was mostly onions. I generally appreciate a high ratio of vegetables to meat but there was hardly any meat in it, and hardly any variety of vegetables. I mostly ate onions in some decent tasting sauce. Would not order again. read more

Everything its perfect freshhh highly recommended, fast service, the vegetables is super fresh . Shrimp read more

Recently ate here for our second time and I will say, the food is actually pretty good. The first time we went, the food was impressive for the price but service was a bit slow but still good. This most recent visit though, while the food was good yet again, the service is in need of improvement. We barely saw the waitress and had long waits to even get our water. We attempted to get her attention to get our check and it was as though she went out of her way to avoid even looking our way. We sat for quite a while and never saw her so had to request our check from a gentleman behind the counter. No, it was not overly busy. Unfortunately this is likely one of the worst service experiences we've had but at least the food was good. The lack of service is the reason for lower stars. We'll likely go again but do hope for better service next time. I would recommend it. read more

Ordered through Door Dash and they definitely gave me chicken instead of beef .... general tso chicken has super thick coat of batter. Generally chow fun does not have snow peas, but the taste was overpowering if you're not fond of snow peas. read more

This is a wonderful place with great deals. My father and I went here for Christmas dinner and it was a great dinner. We had a bottle of wine, two appetizers each, and they had a buy one get one free sushi special which we took advantage of. The bottle of wine was also half price. The service was superb and the ambiance was delightful! Everything was fresh! For the price I paid for the dinner, the quality and experience was well worth it. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a great Asian dinner at a reasonable price. read more
