Food is fantastic and the owner, Nid is absolutely a sweetheart who remembers details about people, their lives, and their favorite dishes from Lil Bowl. The restaurant itself is very intimate and beautiful. The service and hospitality were personable and welcoming.

My wife found this amazing spot on Google. The food is to die for. Bring your appetite because they are def not stingy with the portions. Our server, Evette, was more than you could ever expect from a server. You can tell she loves her job. The owner took time out to come to our table to chat. I sincerely hope everyone looking for Japanese or Thai food gives this place a go!! We will be back for sure.

Came on whim because I was getting my puppy groomed and stopped by. It's a nice mom and pop restaurant in a newly developing area.

Authentic food, delicious and the aesthetics were nice. The owner and staff were sweet as well. They've been open at this location for the past 6 months and definitely need more customers!

I had the kanon jeem and boat noodle soup. Both were delicious and the soup is great if you're feeling under the weather.
Ordered the green curry, chicken potsticker and sticky rice with Thai custard egg to go and my husband approves 👍🏽

I'd like to mention that they have a nice bathroom mirror.

My husband and I found this spot on a whim and so glad we stopped in. It’s our new favorite spot when we’re in the area.

Everything is always fresh and hot and packed full of flavor!

Did you ever go to Fresh World Supermarket on Liberia in Manassas Park, VA, and eat at Lil' Bowl? If you did, you probably remember the delicious Thai dishes and fresh sushi that Nid served up. She started in a small space inside the supermarket and quickly became a local favorite.
Now, Lil' Bowl has moved to its own spot in downtown Manassas Park, and the experience is even more enjoyable! The new location is a breath of fresh air, free from the supermarket hustle and bustle. The atmosphere is cozy, and Nid still delivers that same friendly service that made her popular.
On my recent visit, I had the Crying Tiger, which is typically an entrée but is offered as an appetizer here. This dish features perfectly grilled steak served with a spicy dipping sauce that packs a punch. The flavors are bold and delicious—definitely a must-try!
The food remains top-notch overall. You’ll find generous portions of everything from Pad Thai to Pineapple Fried Rice, all bursting with flavor. The sushi rolls are fresh, and many regulars rave about the Boat Noodle Soup as one of the best around.
If you’re in the area, it’s definitely worth stopping by Lil' Bowl for a meal. You’ll be supporting a hardworking local gem while enjoying some fantastic food!

Practically everything on the menu is delicious! Attentive service as well. My go-to is always the boat noodle soup, but have had half of the menu items since they first opened inside Fresh World.

Their new location is convenient and beautifully decorated. Nid, thé owner, puts her love for hospitality into this place so be sure to check them out.

They also have weekend brunch with mimosa pairing that I have yet to try, but the menu looks really good!

Absolutely the best Thai food in the Manassas area, and it's not close. The owner and staff always make us feel welcomed and accommodate our every need. I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the wonderful atmosphere of the new spot, too - they've done a top notch job of creating a beautiful, full service restaurant and bar. We no longer live in NoVA, but when we are able to return, we will always make Lil Bowl our first stop. We so badly wish we had Lil Bowl where we now live, because other options simply don't measure up. We love Lil Bowl!

Food was ok, the drunken noodles were a little on the pricy side compared to other thai places ive been to around the area and also serving size could be a little more but good taste. I also ordered the chicken skewers but for 9$ i got three skewers that I didnt really think were worth it. But overall its a solid spot.

Delivery was amazing. The OWNER came to my house. We had a conversation about what I expect from Thai food. My favorite prior to Lil Bowl was an nyc restaurant called LAND. I used to order it and have it delivered to his office to bring home to northern Nj. Her rendition is even better and I have spent years trying to find something comparable.

Dined in with the wife this evening- absolutely polite and fantastic service from everyone. Both our server at the bar and the attendant at the door in particular were incredibly welcoming to first-time eaters and made us feel welcome almost immediately.

We ordered some Potstickers to split and the Miso Ramen for ourselves- the food was incredibly good, and it tasted like it was made with care and real effort. Everything was clean and well-presented, and the staff made sure we enjoyed our meal and inquired into what we liked about it so they could improve- but we had no complaints, as it was perfect.

I'd recommend this spot to anyone looking to take a date or to just go with a friend after a work-day. The place, despite being a bit small (there's nothing you can do about that, the layout is designed well for the space they have to work with) is ample with ambience and good spirits. 10/10

this place is SO CUTE and the only thing better than the vibe is the food!! we tried the appetizer sampler and while everything on it was delicious, we loved the shrimp tempura and the dumplings the most. my husband got the drunken noodles, which were very good with a true "medium spice" level and a huge portion. i enjoyed the chicken wonton noodle soup which really hit the spot as we were visiting on a rainy day. while we were there we saw several folks get sushi, which looked awesome so we will be back to try that at some point. if you are looking for good food, a cute vibe, and amazing service you will not be disappointed with lil bowl!

Lil Bowl is a gem! If you have not had true Asian fusion cuisine, this is an experience you simply don’t find very often. I have hired Lil Bowl to cater numerous events over the past 5 years and was very excited to visit the new location today. Nid has helped to create, prepare, and deliver involved and unique cuisine for my holiday parties and numerous work functions. Being able to bring that all together with an in restaurant dining experience was a true pleasure for my guests. I only regret that I can’t eat more in one sitting, there is so much to explore even after all these years. Kudos Lil Bowl!!!

I recently had dinner here while in the area, and it was a fantastic experience! We tried the shrimp fried rice, drunken noodles, and boat soup—all were packed with flavor and perfectly cooked.

We also ordered a variety of lagers, and the papaya cocktail was the perfect refreshing drink after a hot summer day. For our little one, we got a mango mint tea, and I loved that it was caffeine free & wasn’t overly sweet—it was just delicious.

What really stood out was the service, especially from the bartender/server, Yvette. She took the time to explain her cocktails, made some great recommendations, and really made the experience memorable.

If you’re craving some authentic and delicious Thai food with great drinks and exceptional service, I highly recommend this place. It’s out of the way for us, but we’ll definitely be coming back!

First timer here. My son recommended this place for lunch and we weren't disappointed!

This place is just adorable! It's pretty small but cozy and I love the ambiance. We were greeted immediately by a very sweet young lady and seated right away.

The menu has a little bit of everything, but we both got the wonton noodle soup and split an order of spring rolls. I got a mango mint lemonade that was yummy and my son had a beer (can't remember which).

The soup was absolutely delicious and the meat was so tender! The spring rolls were tiny but good.

Would definitely recommend!

We went for lunch on a Sunday. Overall everything was very good and the service was excellent. My only complaint would be that it is a little pricey.

We had the bento boxes, and my favorite combination was Crab Rangoon, Pad Thai, and Spicy Salmon roll. The Pad Thai was a generous portion, and the rest was decent. We also had the Mango Sticky Rice for dessert which was tasty.

I am leery about trying new restaurants without a recommendation from a person I trust. I was on my way home from work last night, starving and didn't have anything pre prepared. I drive past Lil' Bowl every night and they always seem to have a nice crowd. They are only a few minutes from my home so I figured they could deliver quick and I gave them a try. OMG! The food is AMAZING. Probably the best chicken Pad Thai I've had and definitely the best crab rangoons. There was a minimum for delivery so I added on the spicy wings and they were delicious as well. I loved the fact they put the sauce on the side so the wings were still nice a crispy.

They gave a good sized portion on the servings (I got the bento box). I had enough to fill me up AND enough to take for lunch today. I have certainly found my new favorite spot. The prices are reasonable too. There goes my diet but it is worth it. Yummy. This is a must try.

Oh, I almost forgot. The lady who delivered my food was quick and so sweet. I could tell by the way she was holding the bag that she was being careful not to spill anything.

I really wanted to like this place because of the many positive comments, but we came and were completely underwhelmed. While there was a second area that was closed off, everyone was crammed into the front area. We had larb gai, panang curry, and a crispy pork belly dish.

There was one waitress for the entire restaurant during weeknight, busy, dinner.

The Larb Gai was terrible and tasted off. We did not and could not eat it. Nobody asked anything about this (or even checked back after the dishes came out to see how they were).

The Panang Curry was pretty bland and tasted watered down. I was disappointed because everyone says how authentic this place is supposed to be.

The Fried Pork Belly was good, but overcooked so many of the pieces tasted like burned bacon (and had that almost powdery crisp texture).

Overall, the service, food, and portions have a lot of room for improvement.

I was working across from the new location when I realized the name and had to give it a try again! Serious was the best tom kha soup I’ve ever had(and I eat A LOT of Thai), hands down best crab rangoon, and fried rice was as exceptional as the first time.

I think I will try the fried bananas for dessert next time I just have to save room ….

The food tastes so so good! Sushi is delicious (though a little pricey). We got the spider roll and the spicy salmon avocado roll. I also wish their miso soup wasn’t so expensive. Most places give you a free small side of miso with your meal, but Lil’ Bowl charges $5 for it as a side, and $7 for a stand alone dish. Although it’s yummy, I would love to see that changed. Otherwise, it has a great atmosphere, with really pleasant wait staff. Can’t wait to go again!

To start, I’m not really of a fan of Thai food but my friend wanted to come here so I agreed to go. I’M SO GLAD I DID!!!! This isn’t just Thai, it’s also Japanese so there are many options even for picky eaters. We both got bento boxes and shared an order of wings. Everything was absolutely delicious. I really couldn’t be more impressed by the flavors, portions and options available. I also tried a Thai lager (Orion) and was pleasantly surprised at how light and tasty it was considering I’m a Miller Lite girl. The waitress Evette was an absolute delight and had great knowledge of the menu and good recommendations. She also made 2 tasty cocktails for my friend who loved them. The restaurant is also very beautiful inside and makes you feel fancy and welcome. All in all, I really don’t think anyone wouldn’t enjoy their experience here.

I used to get food from Lil' Bowl Thai when they were at the Fresh World. I love their food, anything on the menu is good, I will consume it. Also everyone there is so friendly and helpful. I was so happy when they finally re-opened. Now I can go back and devour all the chashu pork fried rice my body and soul can handle. Mind you I used to work as a delivery drive back at the old location, and I have fond memories of being a test guinea pig for a few recipes they now use. 10/10 would be a test animal for Lil Bowl again.

Lil' Bowl is not new to us, as we used to frequent them when they had a small store front inside Fresh World. However having them move into the vacant Manassas Park strip is super exciting! The interior is lovely and welcoming. The young staff are doing their best and I'm confident that with time they will get the hang of handling the dinner rush crowd. The food.. well.. see below.

Chicken Satay: you get 3 skewers with peanut sauce and pickled chilies and cucumbers. The flavor was tasty, but could have used a bit more of the peanut sauce. :)

Papaya Salad: the serving was generous and salad refreshing. However, I felt like the flavor was missing something.. maybe more lime juice or rock sugar?

Lil Bowl Spicy Wings: these were delicious! The wings were very crispy with a nice kick! They were a bit on the smaller size, but otherwise tasty.

Chicken Pad Thai: the flavors were on point! Enough sauce to cover the noodles and keep them sticky. Portion size was good.

Beef Drunken Noodles: the flavors were right, but zero spice. Guess we need to tell them "Thai spicy" next time?

Crispy Pork Belly & Basil: salt and crispy served with a bowl of rice. Well seasoned and just enough sauce to drizzle over the rice!

Miso Ramen: I would not order this again. It wasn't bad, but I don't think it was worth the price. The broth flavor was ok, good portion of charsu, but the "muffin tin" cooked egg was really not appealing.

Missing: Surprised that a Thai restaurant did not have a spice rack option to add more heat to your dish. Please, please offer this to your guests! I'm sure many would appreciate this.

Overall - not a bad Thai option and I'm thrilled to have this near by in Manassas Park!

Tried out this spot when it opened up. The service was outstanding. Best service I ever had. My boyfriend got the crispy pork belly and put it in the top 10 meals he's eaten in his life. I have to agree that it was quite good. I had a bento box with pad thai, spicy salmon sushi, and crab Rangoon. I almost didn't order this because I typically go for less typical meals, but I was glad that I did. I was pleasantly surprised with how good the pad thai. The sides were not bad at all. 10/10 would recommend trying this small business out.

We've been fans of Lil Bowl for many years since they were in Fresh World. Today was our first time at the new location (Congrats its beautiful!!) TLDR: Wait time to get our food was soooo long. Food was delicious as always.

More details:
The food was to our expectations and super delicious. LOVE the Bento Thai + Japanese boxes. The spicy tuna has WAY too much sriracha on it though, tone it down a bit please.

The service staff are really friendly and professional. Unfortunately, the wait time to get the food is where it fell apart. We were there for a very long time waiting for our food. If you want something faster, get sushi. But hopefully they get more help in the kitchen to cook the Thai food. Or train someone on the staff to cook. It felt like the employees at the bar were being under-utilized.

We'll avoid coming here with any family members that have a hard time waiting a while for food, until they work out those issues. Maybe don't take Online orders anymore until there's more help?

We look forward to coming back (ourselves without family) and trying more delicious food and drinks! Congrats again on the new shop! You picked a lovely location.

Really wanted to like the place.. however, the food is a bit overpriced. We ordered the panyang curry, Thai basil pork and tom yum, and the total was close to $50. The portions are smaller than what was expected for almost $20 an entree and compared to other places. The people working are really kind. However, the pork was also really dry and tasted a bit old..? Tom yum also had 2 pieces of shrimp, but that’s being nit picky..

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.

We were in fresh world supermarket to buy groceries and we saw this cute small restaurant inside. This place serves Japanese and Thai cuisine. We had Potstickers, crab rangoon, fried rice, drunken noodles and sticky rice with thai custard.

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 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!!

THIS WAS OUR FIRST TIME TRYING LITTLE BOWL. STUMBLED ON IT WHILE SEARCHING UP SUSHI, AND A FEW OTHER DISHES FOR OUR DENTAL OFFICES LUNCH CELEBRATION (NOVALINE DENTAL). I DID THINK IT WAS A LITTLE ODD HAVING THE TINY RESTAURANT INSIDE OF A GROCERY STORE... BUT WHAT A GENIUS IDEA!!! THE HIGH TRAFFIC AREA IS THE PERFECT SPOT. THE PLACE IS SMALL BUT NOT ON THEIR PORTIONS, THEY DON'T SKIMP ON ANYTHING!! THE FOOD WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. SO HOT AND FRESH, AND SPICY JUST THE WAY WE LIKE!!! THE LADY WHO GREETED ME AS I PICKED UP THE ORDER WAS VERY PLEASANT, AND WANTED TO MAKE SURE I WAS OK CARING EVERYTHING TO MY CAR. SHE OFFERED TO HELP ME. I WAS FINE, BUT THOUGHT THAT WAS VERY KIND OF HER TO OFFER.
WE WILL DEFINITELY ORDER FROM LIL" BOWL AGAIN. AND MY FAMILY WILL TOO. I LIVED HERE IN MANASSAS FOR OVER 2 YEARS NOW, AND HAVEN'T FOUND A GOOD CHINESE, THAI AND JAPANESE RESTAURANT UNTIL I FOUND THIS PLACE. THANKS AGAIN FOR THE GREAT FOOD AND WARM SERVICE.

The staff is quick and friendly. You have options on the menu and it is a blend of Japanese and Thai cooking. It is inside the grocery store and to the right. There is plenty of parking and there is seating. It is wheelchair accessible for those who may be in need. The pricing is fair and you could pick up a few things on the grocery list while you wait for the food.

Ordered takeout on a Tuesday evening. Absolutely amazing! They manage to create a perfect balance of texture in their sushi...crunchy, chewy, and crispy all at the same time. I had the Lil Bowl Roll and the Bangkok roll. Both were something I usually wouldn't order and I'm so glad I did. I've had other items from here before and everything has always been great. Order is always ready when I arrive. The owner always greets me with a smile. Can't recommend this place enough!

Located inside the World Fresh market, this restaurant has a menu that includes Thai and Japanese food as well as a variety of drinks and desserts. I tried their strawberry lemonade, which tasted like they squeezed the lemons right then to make it, it was so fresh. The Tom kha is the BEST I've ever had. The coconut broth was rich and creamy and just a touch spicy, with a nice variety of bite size veggies. I got the veggie option, but there are meatatarian options too. The lobster roll was so light and fresh, made with cucumber and a slightly spicy mayo. Nid was awesome, helpful and she even was so nice talking to me about the food and it's obvious they take pride in their products. Only drawback is that I am not local, so it will be a drive for me to come back. It will be worth it. 👍😁

I love this place, I’ve been ordering since they opened up and I highly recommend the basil pork belly.
However I didn’t realize that if you don’t ask for a straw while you’re ordering they just…won’t give you one?? Which, the whole thing was just very humorous and confusing to me

It was a hot day and I was traveling that day and we decided to order two drinks through Ubereats for pickup. I arrived and the lady handed me my drinks with no straws and I didn’t see a straw dispenser on the counter, so I asked if I could have some straws. The lady looked through my order on her system and just told me “You didn’t request straws on Ubereats” ?????? I didn’t realize I had to request straws for drinks that should already come with straws???

So I apologized and ask if I could have two straws because…I bought drinks..with lids..and boba
And the lady literally went ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ “sorry I can’t, you didn’t request it” I was so confused I just laughed, I went to my car where my fiancé was waiting and I told him what happened and he also laughed.
We went through the checkers drive through and literally just asked for two straws, too thin to drink boba through but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

My parents come to Manassas to visit us from North Carolina a few times a year. I introduced them to Thai Bubble Tea from Lil Bowl on one of their previous trips and they raved about it (its really one of the best around)! They came up this past weekend for a quick trip and the first thing they asked for was a ride into Manassas so they could go to Lil Bowl for a Thai Tea! I have a feeling this will now always be their first stop when they get into town!

A true hidden gem is Lil Bowl Thai & Japanese Fusion in the Fresh World Mall in Manassas. Starting with the kind and understanding woman at the register, the service was first-rate. I chose the drunken noodles because I was starving after shopping and needed a quick snack. These hot flat rice noodles were the height of flavor and went fantastically with a coke can. The dish has a long history and began as a late-night street food for partygoers in Thailand, but Lil Bowl has taken it to new culinary heights. You won't be let down if you go to this restaurant, which I heartily recommend. I am confident that I will return!

Okay, so this place should really stand on its own. We almost left because the restaurant is next two an open fish market inside the international grocery store. However, the owner was so kind, we fought through the smells of raw fish and decided to dine in. Boy, am I glad we did. Everything we ordered was amazing. The owners hail from Thailand...and each dish speaks to their experience. Start with the thai tea or the strawberry lemonade...you don't want to leave without that. The beef curry, ramen soup, special fried rice and noodles literally had us at hello from the first bite. We couldn't leave without sushi...and it was the best Ive had in a long time. The fish was so fresh along with all other ingredients. We had no space for dessert, but I will intentionally make space next time. So...even if you are close to this place...dont let the surroundings fool you...you are in for a tantalizing treat...seriously!

Wow! Talk about a first impression! My husband and I wanted Ramen. After a Google search we came upon Lil Bowl. The reviews did not lie! From beginning to end our experience was wonderful. I value excellent customer service. Nid and her team did NOT disappoint.

We tried the “sandwich” sushi, fried rice, Crab Rangoon, Tom Yum ramen, and Lil Bowl Spicy wings. Everything was drool worthy! The fried rice is “chefs kiss”. I don’t think you can go wrong with anything on the menu. We can’t wait to go back! I didn’t take any pictures because we dug in as soon as the food came out. 😆

This place is an amazing hole in the wall spot. Sushi was incredibly fresh and clearly made with love. Crab Rangoon was so fresh it burned the roof of my mouth. I strongly recommend the dragon roll and lil bowl roll. So much flavor and the tempura crunch is mmm so good. One thing I’ll note is that the food had a heavier eggy taste (probably bc of spicy mayo) compared to other sushi from other restaurants. However, it still tastes amazing. Mango sticky rice is a banger. Prices were a little high (64 for two) but also we bought dessert and special drinks so it might just be fine.
