Really enjoyed the spicy pork dumpling for Portland Dumpling week. It was a slightly seared dumpling and it was delicious. I also like that on the weekends a dim sum cart goes from table to table offering some unique dim sum. I also love the ramen which has great flavor and several vegetables. This was a perfect rainy day dining event
Good, quick meals with plenty of vegetarian options. Everything was tasty. We really enjoyed the vegan ramen bowl and the grilled eggplant steamed bun (which is basically an Asian taco). The woman taking our order convinced us to get a brussel sprout salad, which she raved about. It was ok but not as good as the other dishes we ordered.
Boke Bowl has won my heart. It's basically fast casual; think Chipotle only Asian food. The atmosphere is clean and fun, nice lighting and color scheme. The service was friendly and funny at times (in a good way). They even have dinosaur chopsticks for kids. I started with the fried chicken steamed buns. Wow, what a great appetizer. The savory fried chicken melds with the sweetness of the buns and the pickled topping gives a salty, spicy kick. My main course was the pork ramen with an egg. Very flavorful, very well prepared for the quickness with which it was served. The pork was tender, the egg perfectly poached, noodles a nice texture, am the broth contained a powerful punch of flavor. Oh, and they had Coke in glass bottles, the Mexican kind with the real sugar. Yum. I wish we had some Boke Bowl's in Pittsburgh! 07/17/15
