• Chinese • Minnetonka

Booked 33 times today

There’s really only one place for authentic Chinese and Thai–and that’s Big Bowl. It all begins with the highest quality ingredients–naturally raised chicken and beef, heirloom pork, sustainable seafood and produce grown locally. Because Big Bowl believes that the best food is made from scratch, you can taste big, bold layers of flavors in every dish, from the curries right down to the dipping sauces. Everyone raves about the pad Thai, our spicy dishes that are truly hot, and our create-your-own stir-fry–and for good reason. Every element adds up to big taste and takes our food to another level, be it a fresh squeeze of lime, fragrant herbs or the seared Thai chilies. Big Bowl is so big on authentic flavors that even the ginger ale is made with fresh ginger root–from scratch, of course.

Service was kind of slow. Seemed like our server Dave was the only one around. Our chef Torre cooked the best food.

Our first visit to Chilango exceeded our expectations. ‘More than worth the trip from SE Apple Valley. Besides the fabulous food and wine pairings, it felt good to support their special fundraising event. We look forward to attending the next monthly-scheduled ones.

We were seeing a show nearby and looking for a quick bite to eat so we tried out Mother Clucker's because how do you walk past a place with that name and not go in? It was SO GOOD. Seriously. The bartender was so nice and recommended the chicken sandwich with mac as "fire." She was not wrong. So. Good.
