Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Excerpts

Kudos to Kailyn and Hungry Bowl Mongolian Grill Sushi & BBQ in Bowie, Maryland!! ✨ Kailyn was my server during my first visit to Hungry Bowl and she made a great first impression. She gave me a warm welcome and a helpful introduction to how everything works at the restaurant. Kailyn was attentive, friendly, and took the time to explain the specials, the Mongolian grill process, and even offered some recommendations. The ingredient station for the Mongolian grill looked very fresh and clean, with a wide variety of vegetables and meats to choose from. There were so many options to build your own bowl, which made the experience even more enjoyable. I know many restaurants like this closed during the pandemic, so I’m really glad to have one close by in Bowie. Hungry Bowl offers a great Mongolian grill experience, and the all-you-can-eat option at a reasonable price makes it even better. I’ll definitely be back!

This place beat my expectations. Hostess were friendly and we got seated right away. Our waiter explained to us how the unlimited buffet worked. He was extremely attentive and checked on us. Every dish we had was well seasoned, cooked to perfection and I can’t wait to come back again! It has all the options you can think of, sides, sushi, stir fry; amazing!

I used to drive 45 minutes away to go to a Mongolian grill on Wisconsin Ave in Bethesda. It's been closed since 2012, so how excited was I to hear a Mongolian grill opened pretty much in my backyard. I've wanted to go for lunch, but my schedule never allowed so I went for a late lunch early dinner. It's a little small for a Mongolian grill. They have a nice size bar area, but no current liquor license, so I'll have to come back once it's in place. I was greeted and seated right away. My server Heaven was fabulous. She was energetic and attentive. She explained the ordering process and what was included in the all you can eat. Unlike other Mongolian grills, they offer Korean bbq, sushi rolls, sushi and sashimi. I started with the seaweed salad, the spicy tuna roll and yellowtail sushi. The seaweed salad was a tad overdressed, but had great flavor. The spicy tuna wasn't spicy, had a fishy scent and didn't taste fresh. The yellowtail was ok. Next I went to make my bowl. This is where size matters. The veggie section wasn't quite varied as you'd expect from a Mongolian grill. They had a decent selection, but not a lot of green or red colored veggies, i.e.snow peas, edamame, green beans, red peppers or red cabbage. They did have plenty of meat options, however, as a pescetarian i was more concerned about the veggies and seafood options. The seafood consisted of "white" fish no other identifier, imitation crab, mussels, shrimp, squid, bay scallops and salmon. The seasonings were also a little limited and were the actual shakers. There were a lot of sauce options though the yum yum sauce seemed to be the most popular. My bowl contained broccoli, bean sprouts, bamboo shoots, zucchini, green peppers, baby corn, jalapeños, shrimp, squid, baby scallops, Cajun seasoning and Thai chili sauce. My bowl was delicious minus the undercooked scallops. I also tried the veggie gyoza and edamame. The edamame was good, the gyoza not so much. Again, I'll wait for liquor license to come through before I return and hopefully they would have improved/ increased their selection.
