• Chinese • Edina

Booked 67 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.

This was one of the best meals we have ever had! The service was amazing from the moment we sat down. We had delicious appetizers, drinks, entrees and desserts. Even our pickiest kiddo who has lots of food allergies was happy! He said he wanted to go back for every meal. If you’re heading to Minneapolis make a reservation here! And Hazelwood, if you are looking to open a new location please come to Madison, WI’

Love the wings! Out of town guests requested we go to Doolittle’s as they remembered the wings from last year. The place was hopping yet able to get seated easily with a reservation. The server was busy and a tad stretched but graciously took care of us without missing a beat.

Very expensive but large portions easy to share. Excellent service from Sean who was attentive, knowledgeable, pleasant and paced the meal exactly as we wanted. Lobster cakes delicious. NY strips needed to be returned to get them med rare but this was done quickly and a couple of staff checked back to make sure they we were happy. No holiday decor in sight but elegant restaurant and our booth was quiet and easy to converse. Still our favorite downtown steakhouse!

As always a good experience and excellent food, prices are up a little from the last time. However the price being up is to be expected verses other places adding a hidden service charge. This also allows for us to tip accordingly. Staff was friendly, prompt, and worked as a team with others.
