What Kevon Gorczany doesn't like about Big Bowl:
Quick spot of Taiwanese style beef noodles. Not fast service, but not slow either. Gets packed fast and take overflow from Daeji and Gojiro next door. Come in a pinch? View all feedback. What silveryfeather208 likes about Big Bowl:
Not bad. For people saying lack of flavour, I personally like it. Flavour is often over the top. It's not fancy, I agree. But it's a nice hearty soup noodle that tastes like what your mom/dad would make.And the price is great. They give a decent amount of noodles and meat. Customer service is ok. Nice lady at the front.Would love a bit more variety, but other wise, a decent atmosphere of mom and pop shop. View all feedback.

Big Bowl Rice is a hidden gem offering Taiwanese comfort food in downtown Vancouver. The star dish, beef noodle soup, impressed with generous portions, despite some flavor lacking. Customers appreciate the value for money and quick service. A great alternative to nearby Chinese restaurants, Big Bowl Rice offers a cozy mom and pop shop atmosphere with decent variety. This affordable spot is perfect for a hearty, no-frills meal, making it a reliable choice for those craving Taiwanese cuisine in the area.
