What People Are Saying About Big Bowl
The Owner
Big Bowl
Owner
Big Bowl is a pioneering Asian restaurant, vibrant in design and cuisine, offering the latest in authentic Chinese and Thai food. Using market-fresh ingredients, Big Bowl's signatures include "dim-sum sized" appetizers, pad Thai, seafood, some truly hot and spicy food, and fresh made ginger ale. Big Bowl believes that the origin of your food says a lot about the quality and flavor, that's why Big Bowl buys seasonal produce from local framers and only serves heirloom pork and all natural, antibiotic free chicken that's raised on family farms. Don't forget Big Bowl when planning a festive occasion. Big Bowl brings both ingredients for any good party, great food and great surroundings. True Chinese and Thai food can be enjoyed at three Big Bowl Locations-Edina, Rosedale, and Ridgedale.

In Short
Don't think of Big Bowl as an ethnic restaurant. It's an American restaurant serving noodle and rice favorites from across Asia. Dishes satisfy contemporary nutritional standards--more carbos and veggies, less meat, which also happens to be a good way to keep prices in the single digits. Popular options are pot stickers, won tons, sesame peanut noodles and wok-seared salmon. There's also a stir-fry bar where you can choose your own ingredients.

Big Bowl is by far the best in asian food for its freshness, the fried calamari are the best in town ,the batter is very light and has no oily taste and the sauces that go with it are fabulous,overal natural tastes without overdoing on salt , great non alcoholic drinks, original desserts such as the Mochi. I go there as much as I can after work accross from Southdale. The service is pretty good as well. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for a quality meal.

I'm a vegetarian and spicy-food lover and I go to the Big Bowl when I want to treat myself. Their food is great and fortunately, I've never had the problem the previous reviewer has had! A coworker of mine just went there for the first time and was telling us how much he liked it too. I recommend making your own bowl (at their ingredient bar) - that way there won't be any ingredients in your dish that you don't like. Their hot ginger tea is delicious - fresh ginger and honey. I had a pomegranate ginger cocktail that was delicious albeit expensive ($8). And the mochi dessert with ice cream was unlike any dessert I've ever had. Very fresh ingredients. The service has always been excellent except for one waiter who sneered when I asked for tea to SHARE with my mom. The bathroom could have used a cleaning that day too. Other than that, it's been great every time. Love it. Highly recommend it.

Holy $%^&!!! Literally. They must put laxatives in their food because my girlfriend and I just had the exact same bathroom experience. Not only that but the food had no flavor. It was as if someone just took my tastebuds out of my mouth for one meal (except for the taste of salt). Even the chili peppers were flavorless. All in all I would say go here if you like flavorless food and dirty socks.
