Regularly order their lunch boxes. Always consistently good. Wish they had a little more choice.. though like perhaps a salmon lunchbox.

I had some work downtown Bellevue and needed a place to eat and happened to find this place. Its pretty good, I had the spicy pork and rice bowl along with kimchi and a few other things. Its kinda expensive, but it definitely fills you up.

Good bowl, fresh ingredients. Not a fan of the battered tofu in the bowl.

Rice bowls here are to die for! When you walk in the ambience is pretty nice with strong smells of great food. The two ladies behind the counter were more than welcoming. Saw the spot on Google and decided to check it out as I had never been here before and was not disappointed at all. I will be back to enjoy some more heaven

I absolutely love Bowl Gogi! I try to come as often as I can. The setup is similar to a poke place, meaning you pick your protein, then there is a lot of options to add into your bowl. From picked onions to kimchee, Bowl Gogi has all the fixins for a great lunch. Portion size is perfect, and the staff is nice and friendly. If you like korean food, bulgogi, come give it a try.

I have very limited experience of Korean places. However this place really stood out to me. Service was fast. I tried 3 side Salmon and it was delicious. For folks who are interested in some hot sauce, definitely try "make me cry" sauce. It is hot and tangy and I really enjoyed it.

Rating: 4.0/5.0Bowl Gogi is located right next to Bellevue Transit Center and is only open on weekdays between 10:45am and 3:30pm (very limited hours, in my opinion). After passing by this restaurant countless times, I finally had the opportunity to dine here right before the lunch rush.To be honest, I was startled by the prices; I looked up the menu online before coming here and was expecting to pay ~$14 for a Bowl Gogi (think: Korean Chipotle). With the $1 price increase on the Bowl Gogi and lunch boxes, I decided to get the Spicy Pork Lunch Box instead. After all, it comes with more - beef gyoza, egg roll, broccoli, macaroni salad, omelette, and kimchi.The price became more palatable when I saw the generous size of the lunch box. Because the rice (I opted for half white rice and half brown rice) came in a separate container, the largest compartment was full of meat; I was extremely pleased when I had a containerful of meat leftover to take home.Now on to the taste. The spicy pork was delicious but not spicy, and the beef gyoza and egg roll were well fried. The broccoli was a bit raw for my taste (I like my vegetables cooked unless I am eating a salad), and the macaroni salad and omelette were as expected. The kimchi, however, was confusing. The portion was tiny, and it was overly sweet - is this normal for ripened kimchi? I am not Korean - whereas I prefer something sharper to cut through the meatiness of the spicy pork.Overall, Bowl Gogi is a good lunch option despite the higher prices (yes, I know Downtown Bellevue is expensive) if you can get two meals out of one order here. A solid 4.0/5.0!

Absolutely stunning food! I cannot speak to the ambiance in the evening, as we went for lunch and sat outside. And, it is a very small space. But, definitely eat there for lunch or get a take-away. The owner/chef was also incredibly friendly. Simply delicious!

I ate at this place because my friend was having a procedure near by, I paid for my food ate in the restaurant and was told they did not have a restroom for the public. I honestly believe I was being discriminated against due to my race. Have never eaten at a restaurant that refused to let me use their restroom. That made absolutely no sense after I had paid & eaten there l.

Got a bulgogi bowl here since it was near work and it was really good. It's a bit pricey, but the portions here are no joke. I was really full and I'm a big man. I'd come back again if I'm in the area
