Customer Reviews

I’ve been here a handful of times and the food is consistently great. The service has always been good. One time I had a novice server so I had to cut her some slack. She still did pretty good. The price is a little higher than I like to spend but I don’t mind paying a little more for quality good and good service.

Some of the best fish tacos I have had. Everything was super fresh, hot and well cooked. The eggs tasted farm fresh, not the usual poured out of a carton ones you get elsewhere. Toast was made with bakery style bread, soft and good. Will definitely be going back. Service was phenomenal.

Ate dinner at Big Daddy’s and the food was great and the service was good. Started off with fried mushrooms for an appetizer and then ordered the tampiquena plate. The portions were filling and the sweet tea was just right and refreshing. They also have breakfast all day and the have ice cream cones for dessert Awesome place. Would definitely go back

I work with life skills high school students, and we stopped for lunch today. Everyone had to pay separately and get a receipt, so it was a little complicated, however the service we received from beginning to end was outstanding, our server was Mary Z. and she was the best! She was kind to the kids and the attention was perfect! Both teachers and students were happy with the speed and quality of the food as well. Thank you Big Daddy's!
