I had a great experience at The Original Big Daddy's Dish, and I want to give a special shout-out…read moreto Sydney. When I walked in, the restaurant was busy, and it was obvious they had a lot of orders to handle. Even with all that was going on, Sydney greeted me with a warm smile, made eye contact, asked how my day was going, and made me feel like a valued customer. She was friendly, engaging, and never seemed overwhelmed despite leading the team and keeping everything running smoothly. That's the kind of customer service that leaves a lasting impression. The food was excellent, the atmosphere was welcoming, and I can definitely see why this place stays busy. Great food is one thing, but outstanding employees like Sydney are what keep people coming back. Keep up the great work!

I usually have a phenomenal experience at big daddy's but not this time, yesterday, May 24, 2026…read more First of all, I placed a to go order so I didn't have to stand in line with the 50+ people for 45 minutes to an hour. However, when I arrived, past the order completion time, I had to wait another 20 minutes for my order. Secondly, the lima beans were way overcooked and mushy. Extremely disappointing considering I love lima beans and ordered an extra 8 oz serving. Complete waste of money and not up to par at all.. In addition, the delicious cornbread dressing had a ton of small chicken bones in it. Definitely not something that I was expect or look forward to in dressing. Very disappointing. Furthermore, I will never understand why they allow homeless people to sit at each door entry and back. One page from told them that they needed to remove them from the front doors because it was not a good look for their business and that big daddy would not be happy about it, nothing was done. On the positive side, the collard greens, broccoli rice casserole, cabbage, squash medley and baked chicken were good. Overall, this was not a great experience and I will think twice before coming back to this location. However, if you ever want to try it out, I strongly recommend ordering online and setting your pick up time for 15 minutes earlier than when you plan to arrive. That way, your order will be ready or close to ready when you arrive. And do not order the overcooked, mushy lima beans and pray that the cornbread dressing does not have a ton of small chicken bones in it, even though it is really good - you might crack a tooth o

I was able to get breakfast and dinner for the day. You can call and order ahead but you may still have a little wait. I was standing in line and ordered my food and it took about 10 minutes or so for me to get it by the time I was done getting my food there were five people waiting on the block as well. This place is in a strip mall with other stores. For breakfast, I opted for pork chop with cheese, eggs and grits, and it came with a biscuit. The plate came with salt and pepper and jelly on the side and everything was delicious. I also opted for a cup of Kool-Aid for dinner later I decided to get a plate I saw made in front of me by the previous girl , I got oxtails with mac & cheese and collard greens and came with cornbread as well. The dinner plate had my car smelling good all day. I will definitely be back here when I'm in the area and I will try something different but it is to go only an average pricing.

This review is solely on the inaccuracy of the posted hours. On their Instagram it says they are open on Tuesday, but I went and they were closed. On their door the hours are wrong, Apple Maps and yelp says they are only open on Wednesday. I messaged them on Instagram and they didn't reply and I drove 20 minutes just to find out that they were closed for the day. But when I looked inside, it looked like they haven't been there in a little bit. I was just confused. I was really looking forward to trying the food here and I love watching candy over real housewives of Atlanta so I was stoked to finally be able to come. The hours need to be consistent and posted across the board so people aren't confused and they'll just solve the problem right there. Also, when I called the phone number, no one answered. Basically what I'm saying is I went through several avenues to confirm I was able to come in and maybe if I need to come a different day and I couldn't even get that.

Honestly it reminded me of church food, and not even the good kind because church food be hitting better than this. What really got me is it feels like the quality keeps going down. Like each time it's a little worse and that's disappointing because I had high hopes for them. I'm not saying it's terrible but it's definitely not living up to the hype right now. I really hope they get it together because it has potential, I'd hate to see it fall off completely.

I had curry chicken,veggies/cabbage and plantains. Some of the best curry I have had-- including from NY/NJ, Brooklyn, Jamaica, Turks and Caicos, etc., this one was really delicious.

We parked behind the building and a woman who worked there had the door open. She had on a shirt that read Legalize being Black. My husband had on a Black Lives Matter shirt, & I had on a Juneteenth shirt. She smiled and raised her fist at us as we asked to enter through the door and we responded in kind. I love us! She toke U.S. to grab a menu as we walked in to the right of the bar. We found a high top and found what we wanted and went to the counter to order. The prices are reasonable until you get to adding the sides. I overheard another worker tell a couple who ordered after us to order the veggie plate if they were getting 4 sides as it was cheaper. I wish the person who took our order had told use that. The entrees are à la carte and priced reasonably. The sides are $5 each with a few exceptions, a hoecake is $2 and mac & cheese and a couple other sides are $6. Keep that in mind when you come. Our total for our inside dining with a can of ginger ale, fountain Diet Coke, & tip was like $70+ & the to go order for our son's meal w/o a drink was ~$30. It's definitely a good value if you only need an entree and have sides already. The food is good and has large pieces of meat & decent portions so there you go... I ordered the fried green tomatoes as a starter, smoked beef brisket with the barbecue sauce on the side, smoked turkey cabbage, dressing, & the lemon pound cake. Ironically, the fried green tomatoes came out last. They were piping hot though. They could've used a dash of salt but that cornmeal batter was perfection on the tomatoes. You get 3 and 1 was cut a little too thick and it was slightly mushy maybe cause it had to cook longer? But it was still good. The beef brisket was good. It's sliced thin and had that good smoke flavor and was seasoned well. The thicker slices could've been a bit more tender but overall it could rival some barbecue joints. The dressing was good and so was the cabbage, though it was almost tad bit saltier than I'd like. I'd order everything I had again. I was pleasantly surprised with how much I enjoyed my food. You know not everyone who claims to cook southern food can do so. Oh the pound cake was good and moist. It reminds me of Sammy Chhesecake pound cake. My husband ordered the 3 pieces of fried chicken, collard greens & they do have a lil kick as the menu suggests, green beans, & yellow rice. He was pleasantly surprised with how big the pieces of chicken were. Nowadays people give you what looks like pigeon parts ‍. He said it was a tad salty. He said he also enjoyed his meal otherwise. I forgot to get pictures of the food for our son's takeout order of fried pork chops, collard greens, mac & cheese, & a hoecake. He liked his food as well but also said his pork chops, which were nice size center cut, were well seasoned, but a little too much. He enjoyed the meal and his 1st hoecake. They also do catering and seemed to have a large catering order being prepared to go out. The restaurant & woman's restroom was clean. The staff were friendly and quickly acknowledged us. The music was good but it would've been good to hear a mix of old school with the hip hop since it was Juneteenth. They have a full bar. The only thing I didn't like was Fox News & another conservative news channel on; at least not on JuneteenthZ a generic movie or TV show would've been better for me anyway. They had a steady stream of to go orders and in person dining. I guess we're just late to know about
