Bloomington - Edina interesting eats

Looking for a place to eat tonight after my daughters swim meet is over. No chains, please. Thoughts?

We will have three generations together tonight. Not looking for fancy, just interesting. We've been to Grand Szechuan already, so other ideas?

Thanks,
Bill

    I was very happy with Barrio the one time I went there. I am planning to return

      There's a Barrio in Bloomington/Edina? When did that happen? Man, I'm out of the loop. :/

          I can't remember the link, but apparently due to the location and percieved clientele, there is a more directed focus on the food, and less tequila selection. I know I was blown away by the grilled tuna salad I had. We had an opportunity to speak with the chef also. I was impressed and want to return.

          By the way, it is right next door to Salut.

          Probably too late if you ate Sunday night. But for next time...
