• Chinese • Minnetonka

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.

If you're going to take your name from a badass like the patron saint of blacksmiths, you better be able to back it up. Baldamar marks the turning point where we usher in the new standard for style, service and steak. It means the menu’s made with old-world craft at its core and modern day meat eaters in mind — with flavors forged in fire and folded into pure primal perfection. It’s where every steak is aged 40 days and 40 nights for a taste of biblical proportion, and where crazy-fresh seafood means it was caught during your morning commute. At the bar sits every spirit imaginable, and someone who isn’t afraid to use them. This is more than a new steakhouse. It’s a line in the sand. It’s not just where you celebrate special occasions. It’s where you create them.*A 20% Service Fee is added to all groups of 8 or more.

    Birch's served up a great Valentine's Day dinner celebration. We had the best server (Molly) in the place and enjoyed the food, cocktails and music. It was extremely busy but the staff seemed more than capable of handling it all. Table was ready quickly, servers, bar tenders and kitchen all performed well and in a timely fashion. As always, the fried chicken was awesome and they even had fresh Maine lobster.

    When you walk into Bacio for Happy Hour or dinner it's always a vibrant atmosphere! Last night was no exception, in fact it was super electric by the time we arrived for our early 5:45 dinner reservation. It was a combination of early Valentine celebrations along with their special Cajun additions for the season! The specials were fabulous, felt like you were in the kitchen of Commander's Palace in New Orleans! Courtney knew what we liked and made some very good recommendations! Courtney is one of our favorites! Don't know how long the Cajun specials will be on the menu, but check them out before they're gone! And, if they are gone, there are plenty of great items that will never disappoint you!

    It is all based on Patty - her great service and friendly demeanor. The food - fantastic as usual. (I even changed my order today - a wonderful salmon caesar salad.) We can 'do' business and enjoy lunch. Patty knows when to come by - she just makes it easy. Today - I had the pleasure of interacting (more than I normally do) with your lunch hostess. (I am upset with myself for not knowing her name - I will get it next time.) First impressions matter (even though I am at ninetwentyfive a fair amount) - she was great! And they found out it was my birthday (in 2 days) - a wonderful dessert to top things off - THANK YOU!
