Bandoola Bowl - Washington

I highly recommend trying the tofu shell with peanut sauce. The sauces are all vegan-friendly and delicious.

This restaurant in DC is one of my favorite spots for a light lunch. They offer rice, noodle, and salad bowls with a Southeast Asian twist. The dressings are fish sauce and acid-based, giving the dishes a delicious and refreshing flavor. During my first visit, I noticed that one of the owners was working the front, giving the salad a little extra love. However, on my recent visit, the employee who helped me was still very friendly. The chicken salad is always a great choice, with the option to adjust the level of spiciness. There are also vegan dressings and a variety of protein options, including a chickpea curry. The standout dish for me this time was the butter semolina cake. It was incredibly soft and creamy, with a warm syrup, nuts, and a light texture that perfectly complemented the meal. A decadent way to end an otherwise light meal.

I had the shrimp noodle bowl from this restaurant and it was incredibly tasty! The service was fantastic and the staff was very attentive. I will definitely be returning here again. The prices are very affordable, especially for the quality of the food. It seems like the business has been a bit slow, so I hope more people stop by and give them a try.

We have the most beautiful experiences at lunch! no wonder that this place is so high rated. there are few lunch breaks that are perfect for a hot summer day as a bandoola bowl. my hubby, baby and I had a Saturday afternoon in georgetown when we realized we needed lunch. we hacked on yelp, and this place has come up. the bandoola dishes are super refreshing, and if they enjoy fun textures with their meal times as I, then there are few places that scratch itch like this place. my nabenbein ordered an salate with the grilled chicken. I ordered the reisnudel bowl with garnel. both were great. I have the nudes because I have shared my bowl with my little child who loves nude. all tasted fresh, crispy and delish! the nutshell still comes with the salad ingredients, so they still have the delicious salad experience, only with some noodles as well. the dressings were also really delicious, and the nuts and crispy wobbles toppings really made the already crispy bowls still crispy. the salat has cauliflower, carrots, apples, and they can add some other sweets if that is what their heart desires, I will say that the personal here is so crazy sweet! this place is a dig and go with some limited seating on the second stage. When they saw that we were with our baby and planned to dive, the type was hit in register upwards to fix a table for us. he cleansed it and helped us put our children's car aside. this place is great, and I would come back 100%.

Cool little place that threw together a great salad. the place is like sweet greens with an Asian swirl. I ordered an salad, the fish sauce in the dressur and really enjoyed it.
