Excellent. From packaging and including utensils. The food is so tasty. The Cold Sesame Noodles portion is perfect. It is so tasty. The Avocado Bulgogi bowl is outstanding. meat is perfectly seasoned. The avo is sliced nicely. The brown rice perfect. I would like seconds.

Fry portion in the Moon Fries is unbelievably small for $8. Sauce flavors were really good. Nothing about the Sesame Tofu Bowl stood out, I could make something equivalent at home with minimal effort.

• Tofu has no flavor or texture, completely bland, not even soy sauce.
• Big chunks of broccoli are raw at the center.
• Sweet potatoes taste fine, but are small and very greasy.
• Rice is nothing special, 5 minutes undercooked, just a hint of salt, no crisp, no flavor of bay leaf or anything remarkable. My microwave brown rice is better.
It seems like they called it "sesame tofu" because those are the main ingredients. Definitely not worth $16, maybe $9 at a gas station if I'm really hungry. I fried the tofu in a wok for 8 minutes, added some ginger and garlic powder to the rest, then steamed for 10 minutes, and added the tofu back in. Raised it up to 4 stars.

Moonbowls – San Mateo
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I recently tried Moonbowls in San Mateo and was genuinely impressed by how fresh, flavorful, and satisfying everything was. If you’re looking for a clean, health-conscious take on Korean-inspired bowls, this spot absolutely delivers.
I ordered a bowl with both chicken and beef steak, and both proteins were incredibly well-prepared. The chicken was juicy and packed with flavor—tender with just the right amount of seasoning. The beef steak was just as delicious: savory, tender, and satisfying without feeling heavy. Every bite had that perfect balance of comfort and freshness.
What really stood out was how refreshing the entire bowl felt. The ingredients were clearly high quality and thoughtfully prepared. From the crisp veggies to the vibrant sauces and the choice of fresh bases like kale or brown rice, everything came together beautifully. Even the small touches—like lemon wedges, sesame seeds, and roasted sides—elevated the overall experience.
Moonbowls makes healthy food exciting. The flavors are bold, the portions are generous, and the bowls leave you feeling good—not weighed down. Whether you're craving something hearty or light, it hits the mark. I’ll definitely be coming back.

The Cauliflower Wings are to die for. They're so flavorful and you can tell they make the batter! By far my favorite thing in my order. I got the Steak Bowl aswell and it's also really good!!! Would 100% order from here again. Portions are great. Food is fresh.
