• Chinese • Edina

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.

Incredible service, atmosphere and food. We thought the drinks could use a bit of work given the cost, they didn’t feel well balanced. Overall, a beautiful, memorable experience.

If you want a healthier Chinese food, this is it! My favorite is General Tso's chicken. Beautiful restaurant, not noisy like some places. A little more costly than your average Chinese restaurant, but much tastier.

The service was so good, so personable and truly helpful. One person in the group was recently diagnosed with celiacs and the waiter was on it, great suggestions and knew what the kitchen could do for her. He was so good that he made the evening great.
