Have enjoyed this restaurant for years and years. On a recent visit (January 2025), I ordered my usual panang chicken curry. It was much spicier than I remembered it, but I’m certain the fault was with my
memory, as the more bites I took, the more I realized the perfection of the spice level. I tried adding a small amount of the house-made chili sauce, but it didn’t need it. It was perfect just the way it came out of the kitchen.

Really awesome place with a lot of gluten free options! It’s hard to find gluten free Chinese food, so I’m really happy my friends and I discovered this place. Everything was amazing, and they even have a dessert option! Definitely recommend.

This place has become my best friend and I favorite spot. I love the sesame chicken, orange chicken and beef & broccoli. All their potstickers are delicious too. I just discovered their dessert menu and can’t believe I waited so long to try it. This restaurant always gets a 10/10 from me. The food is always fresh, hot and delicious. No complaints, I will always return.

Wow! what a great spot to enjoy delicious food. Great atmosphere, and service. I can't wait to try a few more dishes. I highly recommend trying them out. Hey and the cocktails aren't bad either. Large portions, easy to share!
I had the Shrimp pad thai and the Sesame Chicken... great portions!

Only Con: restaurant Surcharge

We had a wonderful dinner here! It was our first visit, and our waitress was incredibly friendly and encouraged us to ask any questions. She recommended a drink for me, the Lavender-Lemon Drop, which was like a spicy lemonade, and I really enjoyed it. I ordered the teriyaki shrimp fried rice, which came in a generous portion, and the vegetable dumplings were also delicious. We'll definitely be returning.

No complaints, I enjoy their calamari app, and love their chicken dumpling soup. I ask for no noodles, extra dumplings and spicy sauce on the side to mix in. Service is usually quick.

Update 11/26

Back with kids and this time food still tasted good but the experience was not as good as first time.
Both service and food quality was not stellar this time.

Original:
Heard about this place from few friends hence came to try. It is located in one of the upscale shopping hubs in Twin Cities area. Hence location is at a perfect place. You may have to park in the parking structure as it is always busy here

We ordered vegetarian pot stickers and Kung Pao Tofu. It was delicious! They have many vegan and vegetarian options which most other Chinese and Thai places lack in twin cities.

Very fun we did build your own bowls. Everything was very fresh. We had the brown rice it was perfect. The only thing that was not fun is the accoustics were really bad, it was very loud they were busy but it was incredibly loud. We sat to the left of door by the window. Not sure if we had sat in the middle if it would have been different. In there defense there was a big grp at a round table behind us. Food was awesome so worth the noise. Lunar New Year Specials were available.

Always love Big Bowl!! Bring back the Roseville location!!

Food is always excellent.

Server was super nice. Ordered stir fry with chicken as the protein, and it was over cooked some pieces were burned.

Everything you expect at big bowl. Love GF orange chicken here

The food was great and the customer service was excellent! Will visit again for sure!!!

Great food and options. They bring the stir fry bar back.

Friendly and attentive management and staff. Quick service

Best panang curry in the cities.

Good

Great food. Anthony was fabulous. Lighting was elegant.

Glad to see the stir fry bar is back!

Great food, equally great service!

Always the best service and the most incredible food!!!

Service was great the food was not as good . Overpriced for what you got and was cold.

Our server Alex was fabulous!

Great food absolutely coming back. It did take a little bit to get our food.

Beverages were cold. Food was hot and tasty. Server was smiley and fabulous. Thanks! 👍

Bartender Emilio is the best!

I loved my first experience here! Great service and delicious food!

GREAT JOB, CASSANDRA!!! You are loved-Jn. 3:16

Our waitress was awesome and food was great

Our families favorite restaurant

Great food, ordered drunken noodles but it said it had jalapenos and had 2 and didn't mention egg and had a ton. Sounds like a bad review but the food was still good and they added jalapenos.

Katie was awesome and helpful and cheery

Order a large hot and sour soup and this is what you’ll get, half the container empty for $14

Great restaurant, our Christmas Eve tradition.

Love the shrimp summer rolls.. please keep them permanently.. have recently redone the interior - looks nice and bright

A bit loud. The food was good.

I love this place my partner and me always order sesame chicken and Mongolian beef!! Really it’s fresh and delicious food, the fried rice it’s the best’s 🤤🤤👏🏼♥️

Great selection of foods.

Food is meh and a bit overpriced. Almost got double charged for a dish. Good atmosphere, however.

Food is fair but unnecessarily expensive. Placed a take out order and they got our order wrong. Paid a dollar extra to get fried rice but they gave us white rice. Realized too late when I got home. Very disappointed.

This was our first visit post remodel, the vibe has changed and not in a good way. The lighting was too bright, and the noise levels were definitely higher/annoying vs past visits.

Good food, great friends.
Yummy.

I would not recommend this place. They have overpriced nasty food and what made it worst was the service. Sam was a horrible server who kept forgetting what I ordered and when the food did come, it was not correct. I did not say anything because it took so long to come but what's the point of writing it down if you can't even put it in right? Hope this place finds better servers and lowers the prices for food that tastes horrible. So disappointed.

Great dining experience with friends at the Big Bowl in Edina.

Restaurant bring remodeled so lacking ambiance currently that hopefully will be restored. My curry meal good, partner's meal not as spectacular, so lost a few stars there!

Really awesome place with a lot of gluten free options! It’s hard to find gluten free Chinese food, so I’m really happy my friends and I discovered this place. Everything was amazing, and they even have a dessert option! Definitely recommend.

Great food and drinks. Try sitting outside on a nice night.

I want to go back ASAP!!!!

It’s a chain but the food is always good. And doesn’t taste like it comes from Sysco. Thumbs up. Dine in and takeout.

Always a great time. We've been coming here for almost a decade and their food is always great.

Big Bowl is always a good staple - if you're looking for good food, they never disappoint! Fresh food, delicious drinks. Kayla was our server this past time we were in and she was AMAZING! She was so kind, friendly and laughed at my boyfriend's bad jokes. She was so on top of things and gave great food recommendations. Next time, we are asking to be seated in Kayla's section! She's the best. 10/10 fantastic service!

Quick service, food perfectly done.

Midday weekday lunch. Great food, great service, quiet atmosphere. We'll be back, for sure.

They tack on a 3% service fee. Be warned.

honestly their food is not fr chinese or thai food highkey trash don’t waste your coins yall

The service and food are always excellent here! It is one of our favorite places to celebrate birthdays.

Very pleasant and good food......

Great food and service. Highly reccimend.

The food was okay. It was seasoned well, but nothing else special. Kinda hoped the vegetables were smaller.

Good Calamari, and guava cheesecake, chicken fried rice was not good.
We have a very detailed, friendly waitress

I recently ordered the orange chicken for takeout. There was virtually no sauce, the chicken was dry and tasteless. Boy they really have gone downhill. I used to love big bowl. I just don't know how they could have packaged that order up and sent it out in good conscience. That is not what I expect for that kind of money.

Food was honestly underwhelming and gross wanted to like the orange chicken but it’s soggy and the sauce taste funny .

Today I had the wonderful experience of being served by Sam at the bar for dinner. His customer service and attention to detail is the reason I will be returning back. Working in Hospitality myself it's very difficult to find someone who has a natural niche in the customer service industry. Keep up the Great work!

great food and service

Went with a group for lunch. Service was fine for such a large group. Overall the food was good, but the servings were huge and expensive! No lunch menu, just the regular dinner size servings and prices. Most of us took half our food home, but it's not improved by reheating.

The staff was super helpful when accommodating my dietary restrictions and the food was delicious!

Delicious ! And, a great place to meet. Our favorite spot for lunch. Servers are Great.

Best sesame chicken I’ve ever had. Everything tasted fresh and the portions are huge.

Loud, and food and drinks were bad.

This place has never compromised on their quality and service for the past 15 years! The taste and quality of the Thai green curry has stayed the same.. this is also a very kid friendly place.

Tonight I ordered sweet and sour chicken. The worst $25 I have ever spent. The chicken was luke warm and mushy as if the sauce had been sitting on it and sunk into it. Mushy, tasteless, and disgusting. My dogs will probably eat it but I won’t. Never going back! Apparently I ordered food right before they closed because I tried to call but no answer. Obviously they scraped it out of the bottom of the barrel and shut down for the night.
Huge disappointment and waste of $$$. Byeeeee!

Last few times here,

Food was tasty but only warm.

Low rated ONLY a reflection of warm VS hot food. Yesterday I ordered soup because food normally warm, soup came HOT, GREAT

BUT egg rolls warm at best

Wow! what a great spot to enjoy delicious food. Great atmosphere, and service. I can't wait to try a few more dishes. I highly recommend trying them out. Hey and the cocktails aren't bad either. Large portions, easy to share!
I had the Shrimp pad thai and the Sesame Chicken... great portions!

Sweet and sour tasted like mold! Other than that, the food was great. The chicken is really great quality. Our waitress was super kind and helpful.

I went with my family of 8. Drinks,apps, and entrees.

$300+ More on the pricy sode, but still good service and food!

Excellent Kung Pow and Yellow curry!

Came here for my 40th bday. Our server was super attentive and kind and helpful with all aspects of the menu. I eat vegetarian and this place had it all layed out on the menu so I didn’t need order plain stir fry. Great experience.

Great fresh food and wonderful service

Bigbowl’s authentic and flavorful dishes always leave a lasting impression. However, I must admit that I was a bit let down by the cleanliness of the restaurant. It was disheartening to see dirty plates and utensils with leftover food, which was a bit off-putting. Nevertheless, I firmly believe that Bigbowl has the capability to enhance this aspect and offer an even more delightful dining experience. I still highly recommend indulging in their scrumptious food, but I sincerely hope that they prioritize cleanliness in the future.

No complaints, I enjoy their calamari app, and love their chicken dumpling soup. I ask for no noodles, extra dumplings and spicy sauce on the side to mix in. Service is usually quick.

Best thai fusion food i have had in a while! Great vegetarian options! The vegetable wonton soup was delicious! Only place I have seen that serves vegetarian wontons. The green curry was amazing too!

I was extremely disappointed, the food was so bland. We ordered pick up, gave a tip only to see after they already added it in. I will not be returning. The price was also way too high for what we ordered.

Love the yellow curry, but never had a bad thing here! Plan for leftovers!

This was one of my favorite restaurants. I ordered the chef special stir fry that I always do. I specifically asked for certain vegetables and not others-no onions, pea pods, green beans and red pepper, but were added.
I asked for broccoli, carrots, pineapple, bean sprouts and spinach. And the panang curry isn’t spicy AT ALL. And hardly ANY chicken!! This used to be my favorite meal go to treat to myself. Very disappointed.

We ordered food on the website for our department and clicked delivery which was prominently noted on the website. When our food was late, their email noted our order was ready to be picked up. Whoa! It was supposed to be delivered. When calling about our order the attendant said “we don’t deliver.” Yet, it was featured on their website and it was noted on the receipt and each container. Plus, we were charged a delivery fee.

One of our most favorite restaurants around the Edina/Bloomington area. The food is absolutely delicious and service is top notch in a casual yet classy ambiance. I would love it if they could bring back the lemon and ginger creme brulee. A perfect date night place! Great cocktails and appetizers too.

First time here and was so pleasantly surprised. No fam dinner spot!

Love the portions and the care they put into each dish! I’ve been here a few time and I honestly haven’t had a bad option yet.

Incompetent staff. Delivery orders are always delayed and staff slipped up and told me why. They request drivers long before they even start making food wasting our time. Safe to say I'll never deliver from here again.

Good food

The cheese cake is silky delicious - out of this world! Pad Thai was good , Penang chicken good though a tad salty. Balanced the salty curry coconut sauce w half a tsp of sugar and that went well.

Good Chinese food restaurant

all dishes were salty.

Food was delicious. Really busy at 5PM. I'd go back anytime. Pretty casual with the dress code.

We love Big Bowl. The potstickers are a must! We also always order the pad Thai. It's so fresh and delicious every time! We always get the flavored gingerale. We are sad that the Rosedale location closed since was more convenient for us.

The manager I believe that was walking around helping out was super nice and welcoming! Food was great as always

Amazing food. Waitstaff was attentive and great with suggestions.

We were there for dinner. The hostess didn't pay attention to who her customers were. We are senior citizens and need a table where we can hear each other. But she wanted to seat us at the window so 2 of us would be facing outside. We moved ourselves but didn't get waited on for 45 minutes. Then the appetizer we ordered didn't come until we hailed our waitress to check. Sure enough, it was half ready sitting on the window waiting to be filled. The food was OK. I've had better. Noisy and busy. Won't be back.

Really liked the Chicken Wonton Soup I had. Super good!

Big Bowl is always top notch and this location is no different. The food is great, the service is professional, and I always walk out satisfied that it was the right choice. I love how easy it is to park there and if there is ever a wait, there's plenty of window shopping to do.

I thought I'd try out Big Bowl since PF Chang is closed. I placed my order and went to use the restroom and on the way back witnessed a mouse meandering from the kitchen. Disgusting! I showed an employee and he just laughed, didn't do anything.

Food is consistently excellent. Service, also equally consistent. It's Big Bowl, it's good!
