Red Bowl Asian Bistro - Columbia

Chinese cuisine. The food is delicious, served hot, and you definitely get your money's worth—perhaps even a bit more. I really enjoy dining here for lunch.

I moved to Elgin a few months ago, and I've noticed Red Bowl in Sandhills every time I visited. After five months, I finally decided to give it a try. My experience...

This restaurant is one of our favorites! The sushi is exceptional, and the service is consistently attentive and efficient. The prices are reasonable, and their martinis are quite delicious as well.

The restaurant has a pleasant and somewhat cozy atmosphere, and we enjoyed our visit. However, the waitress didn’t seem particularly friendly. On a positive note, the food was fantastic! We started with the California sushi rolls and ended up ordering more. To top it off, we got some meals to go for lunch the next day. The prices were reasonable, and despite the waitress's lack of warmth, we still left a tip. We'll definitely return for the great food. As for parking, it can be challenging to find a spot nearby, but we don’t mind walking, so it wasn’t an issue for us.

Our waiter was friendly and the restaurant was clean and inviting. I ordered a plain meal steamed vegetables and steamed rice. The baby corn was too big and had a woody texture in the middle. The sauce that accompanied my food was a touch on the bland side but food was hot and the other members of my party enjoyed their chicken and rice meals. If I was able to eat more adventurous foods (I have dietary restrictions) I would have chosen a more interesting dish.
