Big's Bar and Grill, Fullerton (review)

 
Big's Bar and Grill cheesburger
 
Yes, this is an actual picture of a cheeseburger at Big's and yes, it tastes as good as it looks. They did not dress it up like you will see in so many food pictures. Somebody ordered it and I asked if I could take a picture of the burger. Surprisingly they said "sure" without even asking questions or staring me down (maybe they are used to that sort of thing).
 

In general Big's food is all good. From the burgers to the Santa Fe Chicken Salad, from the Husker Club Sandwich to the chicken quesadilla. It is all very good. Not to mention you get huge portions and a giant pile of steak and/or curly fries with your meal.

 
The atmosphere at Big's is great! Usually, on the weekends there will be 3 or 4 bands or a DJ playing in the evening. You may want to call ahead (714) 526-8481 on Friday and Saturday night to see what is going on before heading over there.
 

Big's features one of the only video jukeboxes around. Pick your songs and watch the videos on 1 or more of their well placed tvs.

 
There are 2 pool tables, video games including a Golden Tee 2005 as well as a Galaga, A Playboy Pinball Machine and some pretty cute bartenders.
 
Tuesday nights is Blues night featuring Teddy Lee Hooker and Crossfire. Do not be surprised if some of the best local Blues players around show up and join in.
 
Wednesday night is Bike Night with raffles and FREE spaghetti, salad and garlic bread, sponsored by Lifestyle Cycles.
 

Thursday night is Comedy Night with some of the same comedians you would see on Showtime, HBO and at comedy clubs across the country, and guess what - it is FREE.

 
Sunday day is Blues featuring Bob Lesher and Unseen Eye followed by the amazingly talented one man show, Brett Cain on Sunday Nights.
 
Big's is also kid friendly on most days until about 8:00 P.M. unless there is a special event or private party.
 
All in all Big's is a great place. The people are friendly, Terry (the owner) is always looking for ways to improve people's experience and they do pour some pretty mean drinks as well.
