    Norco CA. Bob's Big Boy
    Brian K.

    It's been awhile since I've been here. Decided to meet a business associate here for breakfast. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive. We ended up ordering breakfast omelets with a side of baskets gravy and hash browns.

    I hadn't been to Bobs big boy in a long time. The menus changed the food was great and the customer service was excellent. We ordered the Bob's big boy cheeseburger with bacon combo and chicken fried steak that came with hashbrowns, eggs, and biscuit with gravy. which was all to our liking. The interior is big with plenty of tables and booths to enjoy your mail. They also have outdoor dining. I won't staying away for so long. We'll be back soon.

    Big Boy!!!

    Great nostalgic visit. Clean restaurant with great food selection. Staff is very warm and friendly. Blueberry pancakes were delicious. Can't wait to come back for patty melt, which is an all time favorite of mine. Located in beautiful Norco with plenty of parking and easy roadside access.

    This is not the big boy that I remember the hamburger was just OK but the side salad was good. The service was excellent. The decor was excellent the prices I felt we're high for what you got. This owner has a lot of big boy statues, including one on top of the building. I like the western look to big boy and inside this place they do have ice cream shakes and pies if you want a big boy shirt they have a good selection and as I said before service was excellent.

    Nostalgia through and through. Breakfast and lunch available. Huge portions and great service. Decor inside is classic red and white. Fantastic selection of desserts, breakfast, lunch & dinner items. A great place to stop in for a quick bite and some great memories

    So good, classic

    We treat ourselves to the Classic restaurant I remember as a child growing up. Now we bring our grandchild. We always get the classic Big Boy Combo, so delicious as I remember as a kid. The Hot Fudge cake brings back memories too. My Grandson got the Banana split & my husband got a chocolate shake. Everything was fresh and delicious. Our waiter was amazing too, so nice a courteous I wish I remembered his name, but he gave us privacy, but always made sure we didn't need anything

    Classic Bob's Big boy combo

    I can't give an unbiased review. I've loved Bob's Big Boy for 50 years and nothing has made me lose that obsession. Brought my Mom here (after 10 years) to visit the Norco location. It's the typical Bob's site with several Bob's statues and diner vibe inside. Luckily we had Michelle as our server who was a hilarious delight. Had the classic Bob's Big Boy Combo with salad. Salad with bleu cheese obviously. Salad was crispy fresh, with an abundance of cheese, croutons, tomatoes and chunks of cucumbers. It was a tad overdressed but their bleu cheese dressing is worth it. The burger came out fresh, hot and oozing with the best relish I've ever had. The bun was soft, burger patties were cooked to perfection, cheese was slightly melted, lettuce was abundant. Every bite is what I want my heaven to be. The fries were golden brown with deep fried outsides and soft middles, just like a good fry should be. Best part was dipping them in more decadent bleu cheese dressing!!!! As a surprise, we got a birthday hot fudge cake for my mom's birthday. This was soft and spongy, slathered in deep, rich hot fudge. The vanilla scoop wasn't the square pre-formed ice cream I remember, but was a nice complement and balanced the richness of the fudge. A perfect experience from start to finish, great seating, service, food and price!!!!

    Had an excellent meal at Big Boy. The restaurant was really clean and spacious. The waitress was really nice and friendly. The food was hot and fresh and oh so tasty.

    Mozzarella Sticks
    Gavin N.

    Went to Bob's Big Boy for the first time the other week and I gotta say, this place has got to have the best burger I've ever had. When we first sat down we got to order pretty quickly, everyone there was quick and very kind! The first thing that came out was the Mozzarella Sticks and I can't lie these didn't quite taste as good as I thought, I never had bad mozzarella sticks but this one lacked a lot of cheese within the actually stick. So most of it was breading. The second thing I ordered was the Big Irish burger and that has got to be the r best burger ever, Im never really a big fan of restaurant burgers or even diner burgers but this one has changed my opinion further more, the perfect saucing, with the bun as well as the grilled patty was incredible! The ambience of this establishment also felt cozy, bringing back times I used to eat as a kid with Ruby's Diner so it was nice to see that touch with the establishment!

    Classic hot fudge ice cream cake  Well half of it

    Our waiter Dakota was amazing. He was attentive and helpful and kept coming back to check on us but not too often. Will return because of him. Food good too

    Went down nostalgic lane when visiting Bob's Big Boy in North Corona aka Norco. Location is right off the freeway in a strip center tha thas plenty of parking . Food was delicious, just look at my pictures. I don't think I finished everything, but everything was sooooo good. Been a long time since I had chili spaghetti but I was not disappointed. The Big Boy was great and their special sauce does the trick, nirvana. The service was friendly, quick and supplied a good laugh to bond our relationship. The decor inside is updated but still has the old school feel of what I grew up with. Stop in if your new, come revisit if you have been here before. Everyone's visit is different but mine was 5 star. Tell them Kris w/a K sent you.

    Veggie burger with fries
    Christina C.

    Iconic restaurant in Norco, we had to stop and try it. Friendly staff. Ambiance is a diner vibe, clean and decent. The food was average. The chocolate cake sundae was underwhelming. My veggie burger was ok. My daughter loved her Oreo milk shake. Prices are on the high side. I was expecting more, more flavor, I overhyped myself about coming here.

    It's too real to be shown To someone I don't know  Chili Spaghetti (beanless) w/ caesar salad from #bobsbigboynorco

    Is the breakfast buffett still open?

    I don't think so, they have the buffet area in the restaurant, but it's not being used, not even a salad bar.

They have plenty of parking right at the front with a couple EV chargers available on the side. They have indoor and outdoor seating. This is a large location with plenty of seating space. You order at the counter and they bring the food to you. We ordered a couple of chicken empanadas (our favorites) which we ate before I could take a picture. My bf had his favorite which is the gaucho steak sandwich and I had the sustainable salmon bowl with rice and veggies. My bfs sandwich was good, but not as good as the ones we have had in Brea. My veggies were delicious, as usual and the rice was good. My salmon had a good flavor, but it wasn't as good as the one I've had in the other location. I think the biggest factor is that it wasn't more cooked. The salmon was well done vs the normal medium. I didn't specify but wasn't asked either. Overall I would still consider going back, but although it's good, it is not my favorite location.

Service - 1 star A while ago, ordered online and went in to grab my food from the pickup shelf. A cook stopped me and basically accused me of stealing, questioning if I had actually placed the order. I had to show proof before they let me leave--even though everything checked out. If there's a specific pickup process, it should be clearly communicated. Having an open pickup shelf and then confronting customers like that is not okay. Overall - 2 stars That experience was enough for me. Won't be coming back, which is a shame given how close it is.

For the main meal, I had crab stuffed ravioli, and my wife had the steak beef bowl, which was enormous and could easily be shared with two people. The ravioli was excellent. The sauce was excellent. The flavor and the subtle sweetness of the crab shined through. My wife's steak bowl was also amazing. The steak was melt in your mouth tender. A very subtle heat in the seasoning from red chili, I believe. Chefs kiss. Our server was amazing and I feel horrible for not remembering her name, the woman who was working the front area was helpful and knowledgeable and just very welcoming. A special bonus was the old school 50s and 60s music. My mom would have loved it. This place is a definite guarantee for anyone who enjoys great quality food. We will be there again. I would've taken pictures of the food, but I am an absolute glutton and finished it...lol
