Most items on the menu were sold out. It took us well over 2 hrs to get our food never again! I hope they last

I travel to Chicago primarily for the food. I didn't have high hopes for this place because I find that when I visit a restaurant that the cook/chef is from another city that's known for their food, they don't represent well for their city when they open a restaurant here in the valley. That's NOT the case with this place. The food was freshly made, well seasoned, and delicious. Now for the part I dislike saying, but must be candid about in hopes that this will help them improve. They are primarily a take out restaurant that offers seating. That means you can dine in, but your food will be served in take out containers with plasticware. This also applies to the beverages (note: you can request a glass to pour your beverage into). The building is small, but clean and street parking is available in the neighborhood. This is a family owned and operated restaurant so you will need patience and grace. It took approximately an hour and 15 minutes for us to receive 5 meals. That is an inordinate amount of time when you have a 10 year old kid waiting to eat. The restaurant didn't seem busy (there was 3 other patrons waiting for food 2 of which arrived after us), but they could have been preparing to go orders too. All I request is that you establish the expectations of wait time because I would not have brought a hungry kid to this establishment (I would have visited with just adults). I arrived an hour after they opened and when we started to place our order we were informed they were out of greens. The cabbage was delicious tasting but a meager portion. The candied yams was made well - not too sweet but very balanced and good portion size. The lollipop lamb chops were seasoned well. I wish there was more rice served with them. The fried chicken wings and fried catfish were fried well and also seasoned well. The fries were too salty even for the 10 year old that likes fast food fries. My uncle had the mac and cheese and said it was delicious (it had the cheese pull appeal). Overall I would return again, but I would order online and pickup to go. I will still recommend this restaurant because the food is worth the wait. FYI I visited the Roosevelt location in Phoenix. read more

Guys.. don't walk, RUN here. We had the pleasure of Big Bacons catering our lunch at work today. We had a ton of options and I chose the beef pot roast and the Brussels sprouts. I'm not exaggerating when I say out of this world. The flavor explodes in your mouth (sorry, this is the best way to describe it) I can't wait to take my boyfriend here! Definitely worth a try. Also the brownie with caramel drizzle and the funfetti cookie 10/10 read more

OMG! Just had the Lemon Butter Salmon, Mashed Potatoes, Mac & Cheese and Brussels Sprouts and it was PHENOMENAL. This may have been one of the best meals I've ever had, I do not say that lightly. Everything was cooked to perfection and the flavors were just WOW. I cannot wait to try everything else on the menu because it cannot possibly disappoint. Thank you for blessing my taste buds! read more

Ordered delivery and initially the portion almost seemed worth $32. However, the first big fork full bite turned out to be mostly a hard chunk of dry, white rice. First, nothing in the food description mentions "rice". Initial fail. Second, the rice to pot roast ratio was 3 parts rice, two parts pot roast, potatoes, carrots, and gravy. Check the attached photo. Third, the side order was for string beans, hate broccoli but guess what was in the order. Fourth, the rice was crappy. Dried out, chunks, poorly cared for, rice. Had it been good rice would it have made a difference? In taste perhaps. Poor value, filler, premium price, expensive crummy rice filler, not enough pot roast. Too expensive by 2x. Epic fail. Update: the restaurant has recently posted photos of their menu items and a large rice portion is prominently displayed in the new photo. Good on the restaurant. However, now the portion of beef stew seems way too small in comparison to the carbs. And, there could be hope for better rice too. read more

We had Big Bacons come into our office for lunch and I cannot say enough good things about them! The food was INCREDIBLE! I had salmon, broccoli, rice, and mashed potatoes - YUMMMMMMMMM. They were so sweet, and on time, and everything reminded me and tased of a home-cooked meal. Oh and the desserts.... SO DELICIOUS! The brownie was so fudgy and baked to perfection. Thank you Adriane!!!!! read more

Food is great! Customer service was okay. Definitely would order again. Only thing is make sure you order 2 hours in advance, (call to see what is available before placing order) and not on an empty stomach unless you go get appetizers elsewhere while waiting for your food! When ordering food over the phone they didn't tell us how much it cost. So ask for pricing. read more

You need to try this for yourself, the food was so tasty and they are super friendly :)

My work catered Big Bacons for lunch and it was sooo good. I got the salmon over rice with brussel sprouts and broccoli on the side

Ordered food through Grubhub and was very excited. On Grubhub it says the lobster tail comes with fries when the order arrives it was just the lobster tail. The season wasn't the best either and it was overcooked. I also ordered the shrimp and lobster fried rice, doesn't appear that there was any lobster. They stapled the bag shut and they completely forgot to put my strawberry banana pudding in the bag. I even ordered ahead of time and the order was 30 mins late. The poor driver kept apologizing as she waited for the food. Clearly this company needs a lot work. read more

How does everything taste good?! First the veggies were the best, then the potatoes and rice, then the melt-in-your-mouth lamb chops, the CORN, no it's the Mac-n-cheese. It's all the best. Home-cooked and home-seasoned. The flavors are ones you can't recreate. It is a hug from the chef and Chicago. Mmm! read more

We were told it would be a thirty minute wait only to still be waiting an hour later. Food wasn't hot and at $34 for 1/2 pound of fried crab legs ( we ordered 2 plus sides) I expected it to be. The other couple with us after seeing our meal and also waiting over an hour, decided against it and choose to leave. I then received a text from an employee of Big Bacon instructing me to inform the other couple to "Please never come back" I've never seen anything like that before. For $116.00 I definitely expected more. We won't be returning read more

Everything was amazing. The baked chicken, rice, Brussel sprouts, Mac, and brownie!!!! Yummm

The baked chicken was so tasty! I loved the mac and cheese too! Don't miss using them for your next event!

My office catered Big Bacons for lunch and it was AMAZING! We had it 2 days in a row and it was delicious. The first day I had the veggie creole. It was so flavorful and spicy. For dessert, I had the banana pudding. It tasted more like vanilla pudding than banana but was still delicious and had plenty of sliced bananas and nilla wafers. The next day I had the lamb chops, Mac n cheese, and corn. The lamb chops were so flavorful and tender. Really outstanding. The Mac and cheese was awesome too. I really enjoyed the strawberry shortcake. It had lots of fresh fruit and the cake was delicious. The cream had a cream cheese flavor and texture which was different than strawberry shortcakes I've made with whipped cream. My coworkers and I LOVED big bacons and hope the office gets it again! I included a picture but don't judge the portion size based on the pic bc dine in sizes are probably very different than the catering sizes where they have to make sure there's enough food for everyone. read more

The food is okay. NOT worth the hassle. Takes them 45 min to prepare order which is okay but we had to wait an additional 40min and we wouldn't have heard anything unless we called to ask about it. When they brought us the order they were charging 20 more dollars than when I originally placed the order. The guy said oh yeah its messed up if you order through grub hub with the sides. So, you're aware of the problem but you haven't done anything to fix it? I ordered it directly through their website so I knew it was bull. The price for the entree states "two sides" included, yet I got charged more for the sides. So not only did we wait for over 40 minutes longer in the parking lot they also charged us more. We were starving so we just took the food and paid because we didn't want to deal with it, but I definitely wouldn't recommend unless you want to get scammed. read more
