I have a small obsession with the coconut chicken. Battered chicken bites with vegetables smothered in the most amazing coconut sauce. I've looked but can't find it elsewhere! I've gotten others hooked too! It's a must try! I'm trying the coconut shrimp today! Fingers crossed! read more

Red Bowl is located in the former Marie Catrib's location at Lake Drive and Diamond. They have a pretty typical Chinese American menu and I'm always on the hunt for a good Chinese spot for when I have a craving. I ordered the chicken with mixed vegetables with fried rice, egg drop soup, and crab rangoon. Ordering online was super easy and our food was ready quickly. Everything was pretty good, although I felt like the chicken dish was missing some flavor. I realized that they say they don't use MSG so I think that's what it was. MSG adds tastiness to dishes and is found in plenty of foods. The veggies were crisp-tender and the chicken wasn't dry, which was great. The crab rangoon were your basic variety, nothing too mind-blowing. The wrappers were a little thicker than I usually prefer but they had a nice ratio of filling. The fried rice and egg drop soup were both pretty good but again, nothing mind-blowing. But also not terrible! Overall I would probably order it again since it's fairly close to my house, but I still have other favorites that I like more in the city. read more

I picked up dinner from here for the first time. I got the orange chicken, red tofu curry, and chicken lo mien. It was delicious!! The portions are large and it was ready super fast! I got spring rolls too and they were hot and crispy. The menu is large so I'm looking forward to trying a couple other options. There seem to be a bunch of lunch combos, but the portions are so large I bet you'd have left overs! read more

Decided to try a new place for take out. We ordered the lunch specials, my husband trying the sesame chicken with fried rice and I had my usual beef and broccoli. We also tried their egg drop soups Pros: Portion sizes were generous for a very reasonable lunch price! And it does come with an egg roll. My husband says the sesame chicken was fine, nothing special. Cons: the fried rice tasted fine but was abnormally yellow: The beef and broccoli was overly sweet. Typically it's a pretty savory brown sauce, but not here - much sweeter than usual. Also, this is a pet peeve of mine, but I despise when carrots are added to everything! It's beef and broccoli, I don't want carrots in my dish! Additionally they put carrots in the egg drop soup... Ultimately, disappointing and we will go elsewhere for Chinese take out. read more

I wish I could give this a higher rating but I just did not like it. I debated between 2 and 3 stars and I gave 3 just to be fair. I didn't like my food (bourbon chicken with shrimp fried rice along with 2 crab cheese) . My husband got sesame chicken with shrimp fried rice and a spring roll. The rice was okay - the shrimp added was what I'd call "baby shrimp" so it wasn't exactly what i was expecting. I wish I would have gotten something with veggies because I only had chicken and it was a little dry. I personally prefer the food court bourbon chicken to what I got. The crab cheese was okay - tasted more like cream cheese than any crab. I don't plan to order again soon but if I do, I'll get something with veggies to see if that helps. My husband ordered sesame chicken and he said it was decent and he really liked the rice. The portions were huge so it really is a shame I wasn't a fan. read more

Red Bowl - C6. Bourbon Chicken Dinner Combo Special With Shrimp Fried Rice - Asian Fusion Near Me - Grand Rapids, Michigan

Im so sad about this. I got the sweet and sour chicken today for lunch, and was so disappointed. The chicken was fine, but the crispy batter was weird. It was crispy on the outside, but the inside of the batter was mushy, almost like it wasnt fully cooked. Ive never had this experience before with sweet and sour chicken. The spring roll i got was also a bummer, being super mushy on the inside as well, like it was just overcooked rice. It just wasn't great. It was edible, but i had a bad time and ended up throwing the rest of my meal away. read more

We ordered Red Bowl via Yelp. Not only was the delivery easy and non-invasive - but the food was amazing. We got the Beef and Broccoli with fried rice and and egg roll as well as Chicken Lo Mein, Sesame Chicken, and Crab Ragoon. All of the dishes were well-balanced and freshly made. This is our new favorite spot. read more

Dine out review. The delivery was fine but the food was amazing. Great for quality delivery when you know it will be in a car for a bit read more

Not sure how anyone could give this 4 let alone 5 stars. Wanted to like it. Didn't. It wasn't entirely inedible, but it was not good. 1, the fried rice was yellow, not brown. More like a curry color. 2, the broccoli in garlic sauce was practically soup. 3, the dumplings were not good. 4, the various fried foods we got were entirely too much bread, entirely too little meat. Would not recommend. They need to drastically cut back on the sauce and clarify what is in each item better on the menu. read more

The potstickers were the highlight of the meal. Great portions and they came with a chili oil dip. I got the hunan shrimp and he got the beef mei fun. Both were solid and portioned generously. The sauce from the hunan shrimp was really good and I didn't need sauce for the rice. It felt like I was cheating on Hunan over on Fuller but this is in walking distance of me so that's a plus. read more

moving to a new city means finding your go to Chinese food. this is our first try since moving to grand rapids. i always say you can tell a good chinese place based on their soups so let's start there. I always order the hot and sour soup and the egg drop soup. the hot and sour soup looked good but it was really lacking flavor. i added some soy sauce and that definitely helped. the egg drop soup on the other hand had some strange smokey or kind of burnt flavor. the soup crunchies were disappointing. i've found there are two types of soup crunchies and these ones were not the good kind! luckily the chicken and broccoli was pretty good but needed a little adjustment too. i feel like this dish as well as the soups really lacked that umami flavor. my boyfriend got the sweet and sour chicken and crab rangoons. unfortunately we never received the crab rangoons but i heard from others that they are way too sweet so we didn't miss out on much. he enjoyed his sweet and sour chicken and said the chicken had the perfect crunch. my boyfriend and i always rate things by "would you get it again?" the answer here is probably not. the search for our go to place continues. read more

I've been a loyal customer for four years. I've told my friends and family about this place, how good the food is, how I haven't had any issues with cross contamination, hairs in the food, anything. I've raved about this place to everyone I know, recommended it to patients even. So imagine my surprise tonight when my boyfriend places a DoorDash order for our usual - sweet and sour chicken, and general tso's chicken, and his sweet and sour is raw, and my general tso's chicken is general tso's SHRIMP. I have a SEVERE shellfish allergy (among others). I'll have you know the average cost of a 2 pack of epi pens is around $600. So I bite into this heavily breaded piece of chicken and it doesn't taste right. It's firmer than the rest of the chicken. I held it up to the light. What's there but a SHRIMP TAIL. To add insult to injury, there was a small, long, piece of plastic fried into the same piece. So not only did you serve my boyfriend raw chicken, you've given me an allergic reaction, and served contaminated food. You should be ashamed of yourselves. We will never order from here again. read more

Really good food for the price. I live across the street and go a lot for lunch and they're super quick

If I could give 0 I would! Idk how a garlic dish ends up with None! Don't waste your time, they were once good.

Standard fare here. Nothing exquisitely different or if better quality. Was disappointed that we both felt sick after our order... and not super impressed with the quantity. read more

On a rainy Sunday afternoon, my friend and I decided to take a break from our movie marathon and grab some Chinese takeout. Red Bowl Is within walking distance so we decided to put in an order for the Hunan chicken, orange chicken and seaweed salad. The meals were completed in a timely manner and were still piping hot when we returned back home. The bag was a lot heavier than we anticipated and had no idea what the serving sizes were going to be but we're pleasantly surprised that we'd have leftovers for at least another meal. All items were good and is your very typical Chinese American styled food (tasty but nothing I'd call spectacular) but given the serving sizes and the cost will definitely be back for another take-out day! read more

My parents used to own a Chinese take out so growing up eating it makes me less excited about choosing Chinese take out as a fun eating out experience. After some convincing by my husband to give it a try... we live really close by... we ordered out from Red Bowl for dinner. We ordered General Tso's chicken, singapore Mei fun, pork and snow peas, crab Rangoon, and Buddha's delight. Everything was cooked well and was delicious! I liked how they were very generous with vegetables in all the dishes. The food also tasted fresh. Our favorite was the pork and snow peas but the rest could have stood alone as yummy too. A little on the pricy side but portion sizes are also generous so you will likely get a second meal from the leftovers. Bringing back childhood memories. If I was going to get Chinese take out again I would come here. read more

I have liked this place since they opened but the last few times ordering, things have gone south. Tonight, my Hunan shrimp was, for lack of a better term, gloppy. Like, heavy with corn starch. It was truly not appetizing. Lacking in seasoning as well read more

This new spot is great! It hosts a traditional Chinese carry-out menu done to perfection! We had the orange chicken and the beef and broccoli and they were both very good! The orange chicken was very crispy. The wait staff was also superb! read more

Red Bowl - Orange chicken and beef and 50. Beef with Broccoli - Asian Fusion Near Me - Grand Rapids, Michigan

We ordered takeout from here and it was fast and fresh, with generous portions! They gave us a discount on green beans we didn't ask for because they were running low on green beans . We got classic American style Chinese dishes and they tasted great. The Hunan shrimp had a great assortment of vegetables that were still crisp and not over cooked. We get the sweet and sour chicken for the kids and they love that. We'll be ordering takeout from here again! read more

Red Bowl - 28. Beef Lo Mein, Hunan Shrimp, Sweet and Sour Chicken, Green beans - Asian Fusion Near Me - Grand Rapids, Michigan

I was excited when I saw the "hot and new" symbol on my Yelp page because I am always trying to find some good Chinese. I ordered my usual: Kung Pao Chicken with fried rice and an egg roll. Egg roll was pretty standard. Fried rice was a little bland. Kung Pao chicken had nice long pieces of chicken breast instead of the usual small chunks but a couple of the veggies had a weird taste. The sauce was pretty flat with not much spice. Edible, but not amazing. read more

Ordered take out, no cutlery or napkins provided. Also their sesame seed chicken is crusted with tempura which is disgusting.

My neighbor and I each placed separate orders within a few minutes of each other so he picked them both up, mine was $40 plus a good tip, theirs $28. They got fortune cookies, I did not. A very minor thing and I am not angry, but I am disappointed. Restaurants who are not consistent with the quality of food and service are not where I want to spend my money. The portion size was good, but the food itself was average to disappointing. read more

great food great service what's not to like? it's a nice addition to eastown. when you want chinese for have a go...red bowl. damn good. read more

My favorite orange chicken with fried rice that I've ever had. Really good for take out.

The food was so sweet and just felt like way too much sugar it was a bad mix for beef and broccoli. The hot and sour soup had way too much pepper and was way too sweet too. Unfortunate read more

Super fresh-tasting (but still satisfying) food. I could see them prepping the fresh vegetables when I came to pick up my order. Especially loved the moo goo gai pan. read more

I ordered takeout from the user-friendly website. The service and the food were both excellent.

The food was edible, but I would not order again. I ordered the garlic chicken and it came sweet. There was no mention of sugar on the menu. If I wanted candy I would have ordered something that said "sweet" or made mention of it. read more

Very disappointed with food ordered this past weekend. The beef was rubber and not edible. Will not go back.

sweet and kind people who make delicious food. the owners are truly passionate about their jobs and very kind and sociable people. 100% would recommend for anyone looking for great food!! also at such a good price point. favorite Chinese restaurant read more

Are you in uptown?? Well? Are you? You need to come here. Real Chinese food connoisseur, I dare you. Go full on and get the duck! Authentic, yet it feels original. Thanks! Anything to make it even better, I cuddle my dog Memphis after giving him a couple nibbles!!! read more

Sad to give a not great review. This was the 3rd time I've ordered from Red Bowl and loved it previously. However, this time was different. The sauce tasted off, there wasn't much sauce in general (much less than previous times), and to make matters worse, I found a hair in my food. Extremely disappointed. read more

I went for the first time tonight for carryout, and I am very impressed. The portions are large for the price, and very tasty! I got the general tao's chicken, pineapple chicken (which come with white rice), and steamed dumplings. VERY good! I'd recommend this place I'd you're looking for a good quick bite!! read more

Great addition to the neighborhood and each time ordering has been super fresh and tasty
