Best Restaurants in 50th & France (2026)

Ribeye, New York strip, and prime rib anchor the menu at this Edina steakhouse, which leans into supper club tradition rather than fine-dining formality. It works for a family dinner, a date, or a solo seat at the bar, though the room runs loud enough that conversation competes with the noise. The Mother's Day brunch draws a crowd beyond the standard buffet fare. Order the prime rib and expect volume.

Convention Grill sits on the Edina and St. Louis Park border and serves the kind of breakfast and lunch that made it one of the few old-school diners left standing in the Twin Cities. Avocado toast with scrambled eggs and a side of greens is the newer standout; the burger and fresh-cut fries hold down the classic end. It is a straightforward counter-and-booth room, not a scene.

Pad Thai is the dish regulars order first, but the Larb Salad and the Stir-Fried Garlic and Black Pepper Chicken carry real heat and deserve equal attention at this strip-mall Thai spot. The kitchen does not soften its spice for a suburban crowd, and the black pepper chicken in particular delivers flavor without leaning on chili alone. Casual seating, quick turnaround, and Edina's most reliable Thai comfort food.

Hello Pizza sells slices, and the Sicilian and pepperoni are the ones to get, thick-crusted and consistent enough to have built a loyal neighborhood following over the years. It is a walk-up, order-at-the-counter operation built for a quick bite rather than a sit-down meal. Portioning and pricing have drawn some pushback from longtime regulars, but the pizza itself has not slipped.

Carne asada and chile relleno headline the menu at this Edina Mexican restaurant, built for group occasions: birthdays, engagement dinners, family nights that need a table big enough for two families at once. Happy hour runs alongside seasonal restaurant week menus, and the margaritas are a fixture of both. The room accommodates larger parties without treating them as an inconvenience, which is the whole point of going.
