Literally the worst meal and experience in dining I have ever had. My side salad had a dead worm or bug sticking out of the core of lettuce that was in it when showing the waitress she just giggled . Then it took almost an hour to get our food and nothing we ordered was difficult essentially a big boy burger chicken tenders a salad and chicken parm . When I asked for ketchup the waitress looked at the ketchup that was my husbands (because they come in tiny cups) and I actually had to tell her that is his I would like o... read more

Came in for my 50th birthday to place an order for my children and wife and I, was greeted immediately at door which was nice, when I informed the girl we wanted to place an order she responded oh ok well come on then, it was an inconvenience for her it seemed, she took the order quickly and then said be back in 30 minutes. Asked if I could pay then and she responded well I guess , I'll have to go ring it up, once I gave her my card she ran it and walked away saying bottom copy is yours. I've worked in the industry for many ... read more

The salad bar was good, however there were no vegetarian soup options. Considering they have four soups available I was disappointed to find out they all contained meat. The waitress was also very forgetful and not very accommodating.

We ordered the fish and chip platter. Our cornbread was out of the fridge cold. Our cod was over battered and undercooked. It was still very doughy and even slimy. Our service was good though and even though the corn on the cob didn't come on the cob like it was pictured, it was still really good. The hush puppies were on point though!

Food was fine but the service was terrible....waited 45 minutes for a table for a group so long that half had to leave for a tee time. Then waited for the server to take our order after she took other tables orders that were seated after us. I will not return, the food is not worth the hassle.

Picked up our niece from military camp. She is 10 years old. Went to Big Boy for food. The hostess pushed the little one out of her way, saying, "I've got a lot of people to seat". Showing us to a table, I told her that it wasn't satisfactory. She said "This is the only table that I have. I have to go seat more people". ??? Where was she going to seat them? On the floor? She was rude and disrespectful. We left and took our business elsewhere.

Dining with four people, table had two place settings of silverware. We had to ask for it. Server brought chili with meal instead of before. The cream of broccoli soup was extremely thick and not appealing. Server was too busy entertaining her friends to check on us or bring the bill. Food was lackluster. Toast on the Triple Turkey Club was burnt.
