Big Chow Grill Grows Up

Formerly The Real Chow Baby at Cobb Galleria, this American stir-fry restaurant offers healthy and tasty choices at a great value.

Ages ago in the Far East, the Mighty Kublai Khan and his fierce warriors were hunters by day and foodies by night. These gladiators of the East would gather on the banks of the river and feast together in celebration of their hard fought glory.

They would commune in banquet-style pavilions and prepare large quantities of various foods from which to choose -- vegetables, spices, herbs, sauces and long, thin slivers of meat from their days of hunting.

They piled their food high upon their war shields, which were used like griddles, and cooked it over large bonfires. This stir-fry style feast became a natural way of eating from day-to-day for these people with a fast-paced lifestyle.

With this tradition in mind, Big Chow Grill in the Cobb Galleria Mall offers the best for a warrior's hunger at a hero's price.

If you’re looking for a welcoming place to hang out with family or friends while enjoying a variety of tasty foods with an all-you-can-eat option, Big Chow Grill is exactly what you’re looking for.

First, you choose your rice or noodles, vegetables and the sauce. In a separate bowl, you select your meats and add spices. Note to non-foodies … less is best when selecting spices. Once your selections have been made, a cook prepares the food on the grill. After the food is cooked, the waiter serves your order.

The food selection is very broad, especially since each customer can mix and match what they’d like. The meat selection includes beef, chicken, tofu and seafood. The vegetables consist of zucchinis, carrots, broccoli, mushrooms, onions, green onions, asparagus, spinach and several other choices.

The sauces, which can be combined any number of ways, include Thai peanut pesto, spicy black bean garlic, coconut curry, soy sauce, sesame lime basil, Hoisin lime, marinara and a variety of others.

Appetizers and dessert are also available. Bread lovers, please order the roti bread … it is FABULOUS!

My first time dining in this type of restaurant and I must say, I was very satisfied. Not only were the waiters friendly, they were very attentive, too. The upbeat atmosphere is taken to a higher level, as “Old School” music fills the air. I couldn’t help but rock to the beat as Rick James’ “You and I” gently kissed my ears.

Formerly The Real Chow Baby at Cobb Galleria, Big Chow Grill is located in the Cobb Galleria Mall at 2 Galleria Parkway.  It is open seven days a week, serving lunch Monday through Saturday.
