BIBIBOP Asian Grill — Restaurant in Wake Forest

In short, this is the Asian Chipotle restaurant. You have a bowl, and you pick a base, a protein, and however many toppings you want (see the food chart I attached). At this location in Wake Forest, the store is new, and it still has that newness atmosphere to it. One thing I didn’t like was the presence of flies in the lobby. If the flies are in the lobby, then I’m sure they are even closer to the food line. 🤢 Another thing I’m not a fan of is the family style seating. Luckily, there’s not many people dining in when I went.

The service was above average. The staff there helps you through making your bowl, and they let you know you can mix up your base with half-and-half ingredients and they provide you with other cool tips like that.

The food barely made 3 stars with me. Yes, it’s good healthy food, but it just tasted mediocre. I tried the yum-yum sauce for my bowl, and I’m surprised McDonald’s hasn’t sued this restaurant because their yum-yum sauce tastes very similar to Big Mac sauce. I also chose the sweet-potato noodles as my base, and they did not taste like sweet-potatoes at all. I question whether or not they really are made out of sweet potatoes, it really felt like I was eating silicon noodles—it was just weird! They have a nice selection of exotic teas and lemonades, and I have not tried them, but I posted a pic so you see their selection. They also have the traditional fountain drinks as well which is not pictured. All together, the bowl, drink, and cookie cost $17 dollars, and they do ask for tips, so it’s more like $19.

Anywho, I give this place 3 stars. I’ve had better Asian food with less vibe at traditional mom & pops Chinese restaurants. This place looked impressive but was somewhat of a bummer because it didn’t meet the...

BIBIBOP is one of the best fast-casual dining experiences I’ve had in a long time. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with a clean, modern atmosphere and a friendly, welcoming staff that genuinely seems happy to serve you.

The food is absolutely phenomenal. The build-your-own-bowl concept allows for endless customization, making it easy to tailor your meal to your tastes and dietary preferences. Whether you're vegan, gluten-free, or a meat lover, BIBIBOP has something for everyone. The ingredients are always fresh, vibrant, and flavorful, and the variety of options—from the perfectly cooked purple rice to the savory tofu and tender chicken—ensures that every bite is a treat.

Their sauces deserve a special mention. The Yum Yum Sauce and Gochujang add an incredible depth of flavor that elevates the whole experience. Pair that with their refreshing drinks like ginger tea or lemonade, and you’ve got a perfect meal.

Another thing that sets BIBIBOP apart is their commitment to healthy eating without sacrificing taste. It’s rare to find a restaurant that balances both so effortlessly. Plus, the portions are generous and reasonably priced, making it a fantastic value.

In a world of fast food and chain restaurants, BIBIBOP stands out as a refreshing and nourishing alternative. Whether you're grabbing a quick lunch or enjoying a relaxed dinner, this place never disappoints. Highly recommend giving it a try—you’ll keep coming...

Just ate again today Monday August 25th 2025 and my wife and I split the Monday tofu veggie special. For $8 they filled the bowl like a mountain and she and I split it and we were both stuffed at the end. Probably 2 lb worth of food from that bowl. So we're eating for $4 each and tons of healthy veggies. How the heck do you beat that. Also they're black current tea is delicious if you add a little mixed berry to it. I will be back here regularly.

Portion Rumors Debunked—Bibibop Brought the Bounty

I’d read a review claiming the portions at Bibibop were a bit skimpy, so I went in curious—and ready to investigate. For $11.99, I walked out with a bowl that was so stacked I couldn’t finish it.

Part of the fun was how customizable the experience was. As I built my bowl, I kept asking the server to “just add a little more” of this or that—extra sprouts here, a touch more potato and kimchi there—and he obliged every time without hesitation. The scoops may have looked small at first, but everything added up fast. Before I knew it, I had what easily felt like a $20 creation you'd piece together at Wegmans. The bowls are actually quite deep

The ingredients were fresh, the flavors worked beautifully, and everything was top quality. It felt generous in both portion and service. No...
