Classic Burger and BBQ definitely could use a serious face-lift. But I guess that could be said for the whole neighborhood that Classic Burger and BBQ was in. But I have to add that the service here was extremely friendly and professional and the place was also clean. I went with the burger and French fries combo. It came out pretty quickly. They call your number and you go grab your food. So, one thing that I did notice is that they did not melt my cheese on my cheeseburger. The bun was also a bit too big for the cheeseburger. Still, it was a decent cheeseburger and French fries. I have definitely had better burgers and I definitely had worse, but it is still good to see an old-school burger joint operating when so many look to the fast-food giant names instead of these local places.

When I got here I groaned a little because there was a long line and I was hungry. However, the line moved quickly and I got my meal in record time. Ordering was easy and the people up front were super nice. Did I mention the food came out quick? It was just as delicious as it was quick. I went with an order of the Asian zing wings. They were sauced up the way I like it and the chicken itself was crispy and juicy. The sauce itself was unique and bold. I had a spoon to eat the leftover sauce on my to-go container. A coworker of mine had the Philly. While I didn't try it I can verify that based off their reaction that it was incredible. There's not many tables to eat here, as this seems more of the place to grab a lunch to go. I see more visits in my future!

This place has been around for a long time and is near UAB West and the Academy Drive exit from the freeway. If you're passing through and looking for a quick lunch, skip the fast food places and come here. The place is clean and tidy, a little bustling around lunchtime, and cooks the food to order so everything comes out fresh and hot. They've got some indoor seating and a few tables outside in case the weather is nice. Hot dogs, burgers, even a bologna sandwich on the menu. I'm recommending the burger because each time I've had it, it's been great. Don't think twice about it. Get the burger. Friendly people, quick service, clean environment, good food, and a local business if I've ever seen one. Definitely give them a shot.

As for the food, the ribs though advertised as incredibly tender were good but didn't quite live up to the hype. They weren't tough, but they also weren't that "falling-off-the-bone" kind of tender many rib I look for. The baked beans were solid and flavorful enough to complement the meal. The fried okra had a great crisp texture, clearly fried with care, but it was missing any noticeable seasoning, which made it feel a bit flat flavor-wise. Overall, Big Doon's offers a friendly atmosphere and satisfying comfort food, though the kitchen could take the flavor up a notch to match the warmth of the service.

This plate comes with hummus that's always made to perfection with warm pita bread to go with it, and a side salad The vegetable omelette isn't my favorite. It's like egg whites ONLY and I can't stand that flavor but loved the vegetables they put in it. Comes with onions, mushrooms, belle peppers and a small fruit salad. 3/10 for me but great for people who enjoy eggs! I also get their Greek salad at times but didn't get a photo, don't worry though, it's a 10/10 as well!

I have had the low-carb smoked Gouda burger and several pizzas here and both were really good. My favorites are the White Thunder and Cloud 9 pizzas. Over the years, the wait time has improved.

I also read an article about the owner and how, after being diagnosed with diabetes, decided to take back his health by changing his diet and he wanted to share his recipes with the community.

Even got to meet the owner and everything. He was very nice and even made our orders for us. So here's a bit about this place. It's low carb friendly, keto friendly, and its a diabetics paradise. The owner if I'm not mistaken is a diabetic himself (Tony made a friend). Everything there was made fresh and was super delicious. The pizza was my favorite and if no one told you, you would never know that the pepperoni, sausage, and bacon on the pizza was all Turkey meat. I was very happy to leave this black owned restaurant not feeling like I shouldn't have eaten this. The inside was very clean and the food is top quality. You get what you pay for. Go check out Bell Peppers and support these local businesses right now!
