“A Scrumptious lunch: Red Bowl in Rock Hill, SC
Where traditional Asian Inspired Culinary Delight Meets a Contemporary Charm
Nestled in a building near the Harris Teeter Shopping Plaza on Celanese Street in Rock Hill, SC, is a gem of a restaurant. The Red Bowl promises a traditional Asian dining experience that blends the open kitchen equipped with a stir fry bar, sushi bar with a family friendly atmosphere.

The Setting: Welcoming Comfort
Though the restaurant was busy, a conversation, laughter and children filled the room without ever feeling overwhelming.

The Service: Thoughtful and Attentive
A restaurant’s soul often reveals itself in the attentiveness of its staff, and Red Bowl excels in this regard. Our server, Aidan, greeted us with genuine warmth, answering questions with both clarity and enthusiasm.
Throughout our meal, the service struck a harmonious balance between attentiveness and unobtrusiveness. Our water glasses were refilled before we could ask, empty plates disappeared seamlessly, and Aidan checked in just often enough to ensure our comfort without interrupting the flow of our conversation. It was clear that the team at Red Bowl has been trained not merely in the mechanics of good service, but in the art of hospitality.

The Menu: Broad choices with lots of variety
The menu is succinct yet varied, with options for omnivores, vegetarians, and those with dietary restrictions.
We began our meal with appetizers:
The Crispy Wontons are one of our family favorites with just the right amount of cream cheese in each crispy, browned wonton.
The potstickers come steamed or fried and we selected fried. They are very lightly friend and had vegetables and pork in them. They come with a sauce that only enhances the flavor.
We ordered lettuce wraps that come with chicken and vegetables to put inside them. Those were a hit with the family, too.

For mains, our group runs the gamut of choices. From the Lemon Chicken and Rice to Sweet and Sour Chicken and Rice to General Tso’s chicken (my daughter asked for veggies instead of rice. I selected my favorite Chicken with Cashew nuts and selected veggies instead of rice. The portions are generous with most of us having about half to bring home for dinner. A choice of an egg roll or spring roll is offered with the entrees.

Accessibility and Value
The Red Bowl is accessible to all, with thoughtful accommodations for guests with physical challenges. An elder member in our party has a chronic back problem was sitting in a booth because she cannot sit on chairs with hard backs. We were trying to fit 6 people in the booth. The seating situation was going to be very tight. One of the workers suggested they bring a chair with a soft back and move us to a roomier table for 6. Our family was delighted that the worker proactively suggested a soft backed chair without being asked. 4 of us were already seated with beverages and the Red Bowl team moved everything from the booth to the table. The best part is Red Bowl has great food without being expensive. Our family of six mostly had water and no alcoholic beverages and the bill came in under $100 without tip. That is a win!

Final Impressions
We have been to the Red Bowl many times and will come back again. The Red Bowl is a restaurant that succeeds on every front: cuisine that delights and surprises, service that comforts and impresses, and an ambiance that invites guests to linger just a little longer. It’s an ideal spot for a celebratory dinner, a romantic night out, or an overdue gathering with friends and family.
We are grateful for the opportunity to experience Red Bowl and its charms. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone in search of Asian Food with fantastic flavor and team members who care.“
