• Chinese • Edina

Booked 69 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.

I met 3 friends for lunch. We shared 2 meatballs as an appetizer. They were fantastic and 2 meatballs were plenty for an appetizer. Our meal orders were all over the menu. All were delicious but the winner was the "Minute Chicken". We shared the Banana Pudding for dessert. There was plenty to share and was the best banana pudding that I have ever had. The place was packed on this Tuesday for lunch, but our server, Jessie, treated us as if we were the only table in the house. I can't wait to go back.

Any and all Lettuce Entertain You restaurants/concepts would earn top marks from me (and most everyone) but Twin City Grille gets a bit higher grades. Much like their sister Wildfire brand, the menu is varied with everything being outstanding. Service is always friendly, professional and fully customer-focused. Portions are generous, plating and quality of the cuisine is terrific adding-up to a solid value-for-money. In fact, so enjoyable we'll be returning tomorrow to try different items before leaving town.

We are so excited to have a new restaurant in our neighborhood and it is gorgeous. The atmosphere/ambiance is what my sister and I called "upscale Minneapolis chic". (an oxymoron I guess!) It is spacious with very tasteful and calming décor and has unique and exciting menu options from locally grown and in-house cured/prepared food. The staff are delightful and personable and make sure your time there feels special. Love it and will be back again and again! Welcome!!!
