Food: Memorable flavors shook wallets

Big Al's dishes are a delightful dichotomy of flavors and prices. The juicy chicken wings, harmonious BBQ brisket sandwich and unique carne asada pizza hit all the right taste notes using fresh ingredients. However, the creativity and variety of the menu do not seem to justify the extravagant prices here.

  • Great Taste

    Many described food as delicious, mouthwatering, flavorful, and unforgettable.

  • Bad Value

    Food is good but prices too high to justify frequent visits.

Vibe: Bright lights sabotage warm vibe

The vibe at Big Al's relies heavily on lighting - and it's jarringly bright. The restaurant space is characterized by intense white lights, creating a sterile, cold, industrial ambiance that quite starkly contrasts with the unforgettable food experience.

  • Bad Ambiance

    Brightest white lights ever, cold and industrial, sterile ambiance inside.

Perks: Parking blues meet customer care

Big Al's scores big on customer service with quick, attentive, and friendly staff but sadly, the parking experience is far from pleasant, especially during peak hours. While the seating arrangements accommodate groups decently, the hunt for a parking space can be a spoilsport.

  • Great Service

    Exceptional customer service, friendly staff, and quick, attentive service highlighted.

  • Okay For Groups

    Decent amount of seating and wasn't too crowded, suggesting adequate space.

  • Hard To Park

    Parking turns nightmarish, especially during peak hours at Big Al's.
