My husband and I were visiting Denver and happened upon Bubu last week. When I saw the word "Paleo" on the list of options, I knew this was my place to eat! I had the "Paleo" option with salad greens and chicken thighs. It was amazing! And the nice people at the register even let me try a gluten free chocolate chip cookie! This is probably the first time I wished someplace was a chain so I could go on a regular basis.

I have been patiently waiting for the Republic Plaza location to open and today it did not disappoint! Absolutely amazing bowls and so fresh! I will be a regular!

It might be easy to miss this place, as it's down the stairs at Larimer Square. If you're looking for a delicious healthy vegetarian/vegan bowl for lunch, this is the place! Great service and very fair prices make this place perfect. Enjoy!

I have been a big fan of Bubu's for some time, used to be 2-3x a week Republic regular, and have been missing it since working a bit further out from downtown. Finally got to hit up the Larimer Square spot for the first time today though after months of craving it! Bubu gets right what so many places get wrong. First, there is no fear of flavor here. Not only do all of their bowls come packed with it, there are so many options here that it's just hard to go wrong. And yet, the menu doesn't go nuts. It's simple while still allowing for plenty of choices. My favorites include the Thai (with added kimchi) and Mexican bowls both with a half salad/brown rice mix and chicken. You can't go wrong with these! Second, the price. Bubu is a rare place these days that gets value right. They're not overvaluing their outstanding product: you're getting a full and fresh lunch for $10-12. That seems to be a rarity these days where every sandwich you come across is $12-15 and doesn't approach what comes in these bowls. I only wish this place was open more days and beyond lunch. I look forward to finding more ways to make it back often.

Great, delicious, fresh bowls with a unique taste compared to most other restaurants of this type. Ducked in during the chalk festival because all the vendors lines were so long, what a find! The staff was very friendly and helpful since it was our first time in and overall just an amazing experience for a reasonable price. Will definitely be back

I liked the options for customization in addition to the pre-set bowls if you didn’t want to get creative. Staff was very friendly & patient while I “crafted” my selections. Communal seating mostly so if you’re not into that, there’s limited options. But nice environment - busy lunch spot.

Variety of well designed 'bowls' with a couple of basic options like white or brown rice and protein. Personal favourite is their Thai Bowl with chicken and brown rice, ready in 10min or less.

That was a damned good bowl! I ordered the Paleo because the ingredients sounded good. OMG it was soooo tasty. I can tell this place has an accomplished chef at the helm—the food is clean and the bowls are packed with flavor. Carrot-mustard dressing was a first for me but now I’m addicted. And, if I do say so myself, lunch made me feel a smidge healthier. LOL. P.S. the ginger lemonade is a must

This place is brilliant! They have several bowls on the menu representing different ethnic inspired bowls (Mexican, Californian, Asian, etc.) and the option to make your own with a choice of a base (brown or white rice, noodles, salad, etc.), protein (meat, raw fish, shrimp, chicken, tofu) and finally a wide assortment of toppings and dressings. All items are fresh, translating to a healthy and delicious meal. I can’t wait to return!

Lots of great ingredients to make your own super healthy bowl! Great for vegans and vegetarians, it's a super easy place to order lots of different things from. Only downfall is the bowls are a little expensive, it depends on the protein you choose, but even when my friends and I ordered, our bowls were left a bit empty and it seemed like someone skimped on what we ordered. I normally would say order one bowl and split with someone with the size of the bowl they give you, but they weren't super full so I'd recommend each person get their own bowl. Also forewarning, this place is apparently super packed at lunch hour, as in the line going out the store and above ground - so go on an off hour!

Excellent experience! These guys made my day and then some! I saw this place and stopped by during an extended layover when I was walking through Larimer Square. My expectations were exceeded 10x over! Out of all the meal bowls I've had in my travels through the entire West Coast, these by far, are the best. All ingredients used were exceptionally fresh, the protein and dietary options were diverse and accommodating, and they leave you satisfied. Conversation was genuine and personal; I can tell they are truly invested in the local community and it's people. As soon as I'm in Denver again, Bubu will, without a doubt, be one of the very first places I stop by.
