• Chinese • Edina
Booked 34 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 enjoyed the Father's Day brunch with my daughter! The chicken and waffles were incredible as was the service! And, it was a beautiful day on the patio. Our waitress and new manager from Atlanta were great and very amiable! I hadn't been to Smack Shack in several years. I'll be returning soon! Thank you for a wonderful dining experience!

    We had a nice dinner before a show, celebrating my birthday. The rigatoni dish was hot and delicious. My husband enjoyed the sushi. I had a yummy lavender cocktail, too. Good service, overall, but the server forgot to bring ketchup for our son’s fries. The server gave me a complimentary birthday brownie and ice cream, which was nice.

    Food and drinks were really great! It was nice to try a combination that I wouldn’t ordinarily go for. The crust on the pizzas was fantastic. Our server was great at handling allergies and explaining the restaurant’s allergy procedures.
