I found a new delivery/takeout spot to satisfy mg Mediterranean bowls/wraps cravings. I love being able to choose my own toppings and sauces to customize my bowl just the way I like it. I got the chicken shawarma wrap and lamb shawarma bowl. The prices are cheap and portions are generous
We're on our Mediterranean food kick and tried @BIG BOWL THEORY for their deals and was pleasantly surprised 🔥 Our favorite was the chicken and their sauces are tasty. @DateNight 🌃 | D 🍕🍗🍱 called them the Mediterranean Chipotle 🙌 #foodie #bayarea #healthy #doordash #mediterranean
The tofu vegan wrap was flavorful—perfectly seasoned, fresh, and really satisfying without feeling heavy. The lychee lemonade was refreshing and balanced. Great taste at a very reasonable price, definitely worth it.
Great women-owned Mediterranean spot! We ordered the Classic Chicken Shawarma bowl and the Lamb bowl and both were flavorful, well-seasoned, and customizable with toppings. Ordered through DoorDash (they had 50% off) and everything arrived fresh and nicely packed. Definitely worth supporting and trying!
Big Bowl Theory gets a solid ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ from me. From the moment I picked up my order, I could tell this place is different. The owner actually hand-wrote my entire bowl order on a little guest check and tucked in a thoughtful postcard. That tiny, old-school touch is something most restaurants have forgotten—and somehow you can taste that care in the food. The chicken shawarma bowl was vibrant, fresh, and layered with flavor—tangy sauces, crisp veggies, perfectly seasoned rice. It felt like a Mediterranean hug in a compostable bowl. There are so many vegetarian options here that you could happily eat your way through the menu without repeating yourself. Everything tastes clean, quick, and satisfying—real food, not the heavy, sleepy feeling you get from fast food. Honestly, for a single/bachelor trying to eat well on a budget, this is a money-saving hack; some of these bowls are cheaper than a drive-thru meal and ten times healthier. They’re a small, family-owned business, and it shows in the best way. They’re busy and take limited orders—first come, first served—so place your order early. They’re on DoorDash, but I highly recommend doing pickup at least once so you can actually meet the chef and owner; they’re wonderful people and clearly pour their hearts into every bowl. With all the current deals and the huge variety of Mediterranean-style options, this is absolutely a spot worth checking out and supporting.
