Pretty cool little spot for a healthy bowl! I got the spicy Mexcellent bowl and it was indeed SPICY! Fresh high quality ingredients and tons of protein. Rice, beans, pico, avocado, charred corn, that bowl was loaded! So many different menu items too that I need to go back and try. Service was great as well! Great stop for healthy food
Came here for the first time with some co workers. It was next door to casa corona. Plenty of parking. I ordered ahead online it was pretty easy process and was ready when I got there. Staff was friendly, the place was cute and the food was delicious. I ordered the SPICY BUDDHA BOWL, they had the 2 spicy sauce on the side which I appreciated. And they really packed up the bowl. It was definitely a lot for me. I have leftovers :)
Maria has treated me and anyone I've taken here like family. My ex partner and I would frequent here and always enjoy our custom bowls. They have an array of options From tacos, bowls, pazole, and much more! My mother and I came by for a visit and have had a great time getting to know their friendly staff and how VIVA! Came to life. Will always refer a friend here that's looking to get a bang for their buck because you will leave with left overs! Think a more authentic Mexican food & small scale chipotle (except no skimping to be found) I recently tried one of their protein bowls as a gym girlie, and I'd say it really packs a punch. Always a great experience here. So happy they've extended their hours til 8. Well worth it for a healthy fast option. Plenty of space to sit, and stay awhile.
From Southern California, and stumbled upon this amazing place. Everyone here is welcoming and you can tell they are passionate about the food they serve. Vegan and Vegetarian and they were so accommodating. Made my own Vegan Bowl and Wife had the Vegetarian Bowl. First the servings are HUGE. Had half a bowl as leftovers. But the flavors of the sauces were so good and fresh. Definitely recommend everyone come here.
Wow. What a yummy and filling bowl! The ceviche was DELICIOUS and so refreshing. Go over and get some yummy healthy food.
Who would've thought that you can find some amazingly tasty and healthy protein bowls in Fresno? Truth be told, this is a major agriculture city with fresh fruits and vegetables that are growing in all of the surrounding areas. This gave me the opportunity to check out "Viva! Be Bowl'd". Located in a large outdoor strip mall and at the intersection of N. Cedar Blvd. and Herndon Ave., this place has been serving up some delicious bowls dating back to late-2019. Since I was passing through town (from Sacramento to Los Angeles), I figure why not fill myself up with a hearty and filling bowl with a nice healthy protein bowl to get me through the evening. I arrived here during the evening of Friday 10/11/2024 at around 6:20pm. Parking can be quite hectic as this area accommodates many different eateries and businesses. I do want to point out that this place is ONLY opened during the week; Monday through Friday from 10:30am-7pm while being closed on weekends. Upon entering, the interior layout is quite spacious as it has a somewhat rectangular shaped setup complete with wooden tables, pub-styled chairs, and laminated brick flooring. You will also see two digital menu boards that display all of the customizable options as well as a fancy paper menu that lists their signature bows, tacos, and salads. I wish more places like this existed as many people are watching their calories, carbs, and sodium. Therefore, I chose the "Create-Your-Own Bowl" (in a small size) priced at a very reasonable $12.99 + tax. As for my base, I went with black beans and Romaine lettuce while choosing grilled chicken for my protein. As for my five toppings, I went with avocados, cilantro, charred corn, edamame beans, and feta cheese. I added onion whisps as my crunch and finished this bowl with creamy cilantro sauce. I will say that a small size of this is very well-proportioned. As for the flavor, this absolutely hit the spot in every way possible. There was an abundance of chicken while they did not skimp on all the other toppings. This filled me up throughout the rest of the evening and until my bedtime (which was around 11:30am). All in all, "Viva! Be Bowl'd" is the real deal and a very pleasant surprise. The employees were all in a very positive and upbeat mood while the entire facility was very clean, open, and inviting. The only downfall is that they are not open on weekends but being a small, family-owned and operated business, I understand that can be a challenge. Plus props for giving their employees weekends off! Great service, delicious food, and very reasonable prices. My rating, a unanimous five stars.
It's my first time at Viva be bowl'd and I am definitely coming back. Maria was so kind. The staff was amazing. She took her time with my bowl. She made conversation. It felt like I was going home. Everything is delicious fresh well made, and everyone was very thoughtful. I will definitely be going back. I am definitely A Viva Be bowl'd fan. - Esperanza !
This place is incredi-BOWL!!! Considering Chipotle has been skimping on their protein and fillings for a lot of people, this place would never do you dirty like that. Bowls are filled to the brim and they're even better than Chipotle! I've always ordered online so I can't speak on the in-person experience. The online ordering process is super simple. Food is always ready at the estimated time! Though I've never ordered in person... when I do go in, the workers are always so friendly! Super fresh and yummy ingredients that make for great bowls! You can obviously build your own bowl but they have tons of signature bowls! As of late, I've gotten the ceviche bowl - which is great for a filling but light lunch! I've come here multiple times and would definitely come again.
been here a few times now and i can't recommend it enough! it's surrounded by other restaurants and businesses but there's never issues for me finding parking and a good spot to eat, and the service is super quick if you're looking to order and dip! my go-to is the chicken teppanyaki bowl... it's seriously just excellent. filled with tons of toppings and protein, perfectly for lunch and leftovers. i also tried their decently new acai bowls, super solid! not a huge serving but loaded with acai which is always a plus. it's become my favorite workday lunch spot when i feel like treating myself. highly recommend!
Viva Be Bow'd is the only healthy meal we found in Fresno. And we liked it enough that we came back a second time. QUICK TAKE Get: Build Your Own Bowl/Salad, any of the signature bowls Skip: Soups Know: Fresh ingredients, tons of customization, and they provide the macros, which makes ordering much easier if you're paying attention to nutrition. The biggest win here is how easy it is to build exactly what you want. You can start with romaine, white or brown rice, black beans or roasted garlic potatoes, then add chicken, steak, ceviche, tofu or vegetables and choose from a huge list of toppings and sauces. Build Your Own Salad/Bowl: My favorite way to order. Everything we had tasted fresh, especially the produce, and there are enough toppings and proteins that you can make it as healthy or indulgent as you want. Signature Bowls: There are a lot of good options if you don't want to build your own, including the Skinny Buddha Bowl, Mexcellent Bowl, Teriyaki Bowl, Vegan Bowl and Perfecto Protein Bowl. Soups: The current menu features their Chicken Pozole Verde, but the soups were the one part of the menu we wouldn't bother with again. Nothing felt like sad "health food," and the vegetables were fresh and crisp both times we visited. All of the produce was super fresh and the protein was delicious. read more

I am a frequent customer and have been coming for almost three years now. Today I got the steak bites regular bowl. It's always plenty and even a nice leftover for later. You have to try it! I really like their teppanyaki bowl, too! They have many different options to choose from- tacos, bowls, pozole, kids menu, and more! The restaurant is always clean and the customer service is always great with smiles. read more

This place hit the spot with filling the belly! Amazing taste and the portion size was enough for two. The service was a bit lacking only because my friends and went for a Sunday lunch and there was only 1 person to fill the orders. The atmosphere was very inviting. Most definitely a must try. read more

My FAVORITE bowls in Fresno! No other place does it like them. You pay chipotle prices for a bowl that is filled to the brim and packed with dense flavors and fresh ingredients. I usually order online so there's not much to comment on dining in, but the place usually has plenty of seating and the food is made in a timely manner. The few interactions I've had with the staff show that they are super friendly as well. Usually I build my bowl, but I don't see how you can go wrong with any of their house specials. For anyone who cares, my order is white rice, steak bites, lettuce, sunomuno, charred corn, matadors, pico de galla, salsa verde, tortilla twist, and honey siracha. SO GOOD. Always in the mood for this place when I want something filling but don't want to feel heavy. read more

I am on a bowl kick lately. I love to get them for lunch or dinner. I tried this place. It is next door to Casa Corona on Cedar and Herndon. In fact, the owner of Casa opened this restaurant. I love the variety of bowls that you can choose from build your own. I chose the Mexcellent Bowl. It is served with white rice, black beans, grilled chicken, pico de Gallo, charred corn, cilantro, mashed avocados. It also comes with tortilla twists and a creamy cilantro dressing. I loved it. It was perfect amount for dinner not to overwhelming and flavors were great. The place itself is a cute little walk in with tables to eat or you can take out. The staff is great as they acknowledge you as soon as you walk in the door and you don't really have to wait that long for your order. Can't wait not go back and try the other items! read more

I am always a fan of warm protein on top of salads. I was pleasantly surprised to find this place with fresh cooked meats and toppings. It's like a poke healthy spot but for salads and bowls. Service was quick. They even sale chips and salsa. I ordered the chicken and steak salad with garlic dressing. I enjoyed it every bit. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. read more
