Shaking Bowl is at the end of a strip mall. It is a Korean Japanese hybrid, which to me means healthier food. I tried the spicy leek pancake, a Korean corn dog, and a veggie bowl with tofu on top. I got to choose a sauce, and it was not easy to decide. What helped was to see the list in descending order of heat. I ended up choosing the spicy garlic, and it was very good. I wish I had two sauces! The Korean corn dog was just ok for me, next time I'll try something else. The spicy leek pancakes were crispy , and delicious. The bowl was fantastic. I loved all the components - the red cabbage, bean sprouts, and tofu were wonderful together. The service was quick, pleasant, and helpful. I will definitely be back to enjoy more from this great establishment!
So we stopped by shaking bowl The staff was really nice. They specialize with making bibim bop I got the Spicy pork bowl
One of my new favorites! I want to go back and try every sauce!! I was at a conference in the area that provided lunch but they had nothing I could eat so I quickly scrambled to find a place close by with vegan options. Shaking bowl did not disappoint! I had the veggie bowl with tofu and the sweet chili sauce and it was delicious! I loved how easy it was to order with a detailed explanation of the sauces. Staff was very friendly and helpful and the cafe itself was welcoming and cozy. Can't wait to visit again!
Great food! My wife and I tried the. Bulgogi Bowl and Spicy Chicken bowl. Both were great with generous portions of protein. The spicy chicken definitely had a kick which we enjoyed. The service was quick and kind. The interior had a welcoming humble presence. We will be back!
Delicious and quick.. these guys make some delicious Korean comfort food. I have been missing this cuisine since Kimcheese closed in Chesterfield and this place did not disappoint. Thanks for lunch..pics included
I used to go to U-City Grill to enjoy this kind of fare. They have disappeared during the building renovation. I would usually get the Bibimbap, which was basically the same dish as this Bulgogi bowl, plus a sunny side up egg on top. I had inquired about the Bulgogi bowl, and the Fire Chicken bowl. I decided with the Bulgogi bowl, with the Fire sauce (they have regular Fire, and super hot Fire sauce.) I decided with the regular Fire sauce to be added to my bowl. Delicious! The flavor was wonderful, the rice coiled perfectly, and a nice blend of veggies. $14 included tax, and I have about a third of it left for part of tonight's dinner. I will definitely be returning.
Arrived around 1:45 pm on Tuesday for our 1st visit -- we didn't notice until close to 1:30 pm that they close (take a break) at 2 pm. Lady owner who took our order was very pleasant. I ordered veggie bowl on default white rice and added fried tofu. I wish they would leave the egg on top when tofu is added (they didn't put egg on mine). I chose "Yummy" sauce -- it was ok but next time I'll get sesame soy to get a more authentic flavor. Son ordered bulgogi bowl on default white rice. We did not know that the bowl would be so dry and tasteless without their "spicy sauce". I had stepped back from the counter so I can't be sure if the lady asked my son if he wanted sauce or not, but my son doesn't like much spicy so if she did ask he probably said no. I checked their online ordering later and "Spicy sauce" is a free selection, so it should have been given by default, or include a soy or other free sauce. Customers would at least have the option to use it, which we didn't. Gojuchang is $1 additional cost. There was a sign on a wall of their restaurant explaining Bibimbap. We have eaten a LOT of Bibimbap at various restaurants, though we usually get DolSot Bibimbap. My son usually does not add Gojuchang, so that should not have been the cause for this bowl being tasteless. If this bowl was supposed to be Bibimbap, the only part that had the correct flavor was the bulgogi beef. I will give them credit for not being stingy with the proteins (tofu and beef). There was also alot of rice (base). We both saved half to add more ingredients for another meal.
I was in the area around lunch time and decided to stop in. They have 4.5 and above ratings on Yelp and Google, so this place was a definite must try! They offer counter service at this spot. The menu is fairly self explanatory. Pick your protein, carb, and veggies. Don't know where to start or what to get?? There are several house selections to choose from as well. I love bulgogi, so that was a must for me. I added a side of kimchi and gyoza to round out my meal. I stopped in on a Wednesday afternoon, so they weren't too busy. My food was ready in about 15 minutes. The bowl was absolutely beautiful! Full of tender beef,a generous portion of rice, and packed full of veggies. The gyoza was crisp with a flavorful filling. The kimchi was pretty good. I do have a favorite kimchi here in St. Louis that is almost impossible to beat in my opinion. This kimchi fit the bill and balanced out the sweetness and richness of the bulgogi. I'm planning to stop back soon to try the teriyaki salmon bowl!
Shaking bowl is the go-to for ridiculously fresh, filling, and fantastic food. I've ordered the Bulgogi steak bowl at least 5 times. You can taste how freshly picked the vegetables are. I custom order my steak bowl without cucumber, but you can make any accommodations you'd like! It's a small hole in the wall joint right off Telegraph. Every time I pick up my order, I'm greeted by the nice lady who works register and takes orders. She is always very kind! Highly recommend! The portion sizes are great too! There's plenty of options for vegetarians too :)
I would recommend this place. The food is always fresh and delicious. I waited 10 minutes for my spicy fire bowl with an egg on top and didn't disappoint at all. The inside of the restaurant is very calm and clean and I always dine in.
Love this hidden gem ! Love coming here with my daughter on Saturdays during dance season. The owners are great. It's def a family place...plenty of seating and tons of food options. Everything I've tried has been great and will continue to come here.
The nicest employees and the freshest food! I was blown away by the quality of ingredients in my (B-3) Jaeyook bowl. I also had to try some chicken wings (yummy sauce), which came out hot and crispy. And of course it was all delicious. Portions were very good. I noticed they sell Korean corndogs (mozzarella filling only), which are difficult to come by in the STL area. There were a lot of other sides I wanted to try but didn't have room for. Plenty of seating available on a Friday afternoon around 12:30 pm. Very cute mom & pop shop-type vibes. I'm not ever really in Oakville, but if I ever find myself there again, I'll be grabbing a bite to eat at Shaking Bowl.

Great food! My boyfriend always asks for this place when he gets to pick dinner. Highly recommend! read more
This place is going to become one of my regular stops! It's hidden away but the inside was cute, clean and spacious. The staff were extremely sweet and helpful and helped us with recommendations! The food came out quickly and was nice and hot. We sampled a number of different appetizers but really came for the Korean Corn Dogs and we were not disappointed! Everything was reasonably prized and made fresh to order! Definitely check this place out! read more

What a nice hidden little gem. A friend recommended it so my wife and I went and tried it. Glad we did. The restaurant is not anything you would go to be impressed with decor. There are informational posters talking about the food on the wall as well a photos of the menu items. THAT was awesome. It wasn't too crowded and we got to order right away. The lady taking the order was masked as was the kitchen staff. She was so polite too. I ordered a chicken bowl and my wife ordered a shrimp bowl. We added aside order of crab rangoon as well. The serve pepsi products from the soda station but there are other choices available in a front facing fridge by the counter. We sat down, I went and got my soda, and a bowl of rice puffs appeared at our table. They were good to have while we waited. The wait was a bit long but once I got my food I forgot about the wait. The bowls looked awesome and as it turned out tasted as good as they looked. The sauce used for the shrimp was good and probably the best Teriyaki sauce I've tasted on chicken in my bowl. The filling for the crab rangoon was good but the fried bits to filling ratio was off. Though good, I think we'd pass on them again. But the bowls, yum! The bowl comes in a aluminum tin and if you have any to go they just give you the top. Sadly, nothing made it home. We will be back and bringing our friends next time. read more

If you like food with amazing flavor, this is your spot. Everything tastes great! Family Restaurant that cares about every customer. Ambience is a relaxed environment for dine in or carry out. Delivery available with DoorDash and Grubhub. read more
I ordered the spicy chicken/fire bowl and wow! The bowl was very spicy but also savory. The portion was pretty large and I'm already looking forward to visiting again and grabbing a different bowl to explore different flavors! read more
As some who loves exploring new food, this place is a must try! While the location may not be the most appealing spot, the people, service, and food make it seem as if you've unearthed a gem! All the food I tried today was made fresh to order and full of flavor. In store, there's more options than on the online menu. I'd encourage those who love Korean food to come check this place out! The ambiance is pleasant and have ample seating to have large groups. This place deserves more recognition! When I went, the people that were there mainly did the take out order but it has so much space for people to dine in. Hopefully more people can sit down and enjoy their food read more

My husband said he wanted to find a place for a bowl and we haven't had the best luck recently with our regular bowl place. I found this place online and it did not disappoint. My husband had the Teriyaki Salmon Bowl and I had a Fire bowl. We will definitely be back. read more

We decided to try something new for dinner and decided on Shaking Bowl. I ordered the spicy chicken bowl over brown rice. It was delicious with a good mix of mild heat and fresh veggies. The serving was generous, I took half of it home. We also received our food pretty quickly. They have Pepsi products and if you get water, you get a carafe of ice cold water. We ate in and at first it wasn't very busy but then we watched as other customers came in and placed orders, most of those orders were to-go. The inside was very clean and comfortable. We will be back and will recommend to our friends that live in the area. read more
