My wife and I stopped by for the first time last night and we absolutely loved it. They are currently in a grocery store but they said they were getting their own store beginning March 31, 2024 so I can’t complain about that. The food tasted so fresh and had so much flavor. My wife said her pad Thai was the best she’s ever had. My drunken noodles were perfectly done and had a great amount of flavor. Some restaurants have a hard time getting the noodles to hold the sauce but Lil Bowl knows what they’re doing.The woman serving us was so sweet too. She told us all about her restaurant and where they were moving and asked that we come back later, which we definitely will. Excellent restaurant!

Legit the best Thai Boat Noodle Soup I have ever had. The broth was rich and sweet, the beef was cooked perfectly, and the portion size is large. The owner is super sweet. She told me that her restaurant is moving out of the grocery store in a few weeis - they're getting their own storefront! I can't wait to come back with my family.

I love this restaurant because it has very authentic asian food. My favorite thing about this place is that it always seems to be quite quiet and enjoyable. The employees here are just fantastic and I can't wait for the new place to open! Thank you Lil' Bowl!

Food great and people are nice... but organization and process need work. Ordered food for later pickup and was ready almost an hour early. Tried to call and phone isnt working. Update - owner reached out after seeing review and fixed order (really nice people)

My husband and I and several of my friends have enjoyed coming to Lil Bowl inside Fresh World for over 6 years. we were pleased to recently find out that they are opening up their own restaurant in Manassas Park. I love their food- their sushi is super fresh and I love their Pad Thai! The staff is extremely pleasant and always recognizes me when I come in.

Highly recommend their noodles, I got one with pork belly and bacon, the perfect size to fill you up! I also recommend the Thai tea recommended by the front desk lady, it tastes great!

I love this place. The food is delicious. My favorites include Thai Panang Curry, Wonton Soup, Tom Yum Soup, Drunken Noodles, and the Shrimp Tempura Rolls.I can't speak highly enough about the customer service, especially in a time when customer service is lacking. Nid, the owner, takes time to get to know her customers...I appreciate that! On top of the great customer service is the quality of the food! Much needed when quality seems to be obscure.I'll miss Lil Bowl's location on Liberia Ave. in Manassas, but I'm excited for their new move to the City of Manassas! I'll be there! Congratulations on moving to larger space! You deserve it! Come check it out everyone! ~ you won't regret it!!
Amazing food and service. The owner is so lovely and sweet. I'm excited for their move out of the grocery store setting. Definitely recommend.

First and not last visitThe food and service is great! They have a small dining area so you have a degree of separation from the rest of the grocery store.The sushi and tom kha soup are especially delicious and the woman working the front was so personable and gave great suggestions!

Walked by while shopping, decided to get some lunch, and discovered a delicious pad ka prao gai kai dao (might be off-menu? If it is, it should be added!) This is the real stuff with dry fried chopped meat that I ate so much of when in Thailand, not the American version that's wet and full of sauce. High heat cooking with the familiar sound of a strong gas burner. Egg was perfectly fried, Thai-style. Very generous portion. The service was wonderful and friendly. I'll definitely be back.
Very delicious
