This is the best place to go for burgers in Sitges!! We came in for lunch right when they opened. Service was friendly and helpful. We all loved our burgers. We got two Luther's and a half pound town. It was all yummy. The curly fries are great, and while we didn't get onion rings this time, I wish we had. Milkshake was good as was the brownie sundae. Next time a craving for delicious burgers happens we will go back!! read more

Big Al's - American Near Me - Sitges, B

Went to visit friends who are staying in Sitges who said while you guys are here we are going to take you to a hamburger restaurant that we really like. They took us to "Big Al's" which they have been dining at since 2021. As we walked in I noticed how clean the restaurant was and very well laid out with good lighting with dining utensils and napkins in a container on your table. They have a full bar underneath a large red neon "Cocktail" sign to fulfill whatever your drinking preference happens to be! We ordered two pitchers of their Sangria which was spot on with its sweetness and taste. The waiter who was very friendly and very attentive to us actually suggested he bring them out one at a time to keep the Sangria cool (plus it did save on table space as well.). The Sangria was refreshing, fruity and flavorful which was what we needed after a day sunning on the beach and I must say we did get to the second pitcher rather quickly! For appetizers we ordered the Pulled Pork Nachos and our friends ordered the Three Cheese Quesadilla. The Quesadilla had the perfect amount of blended cheeses and a nice crisp toasting. The Pulled Pork Nachos were fantastic too! The barbecue pork tasted as good if not better than that we eat in the Midwest (Missouri). The melted cheese blended in so well with the Pulled Pork & slices of pickled Jalapeño. The barbecue sauce tasted superb with the right amount of sweetness and tanginess which matched the correct flavor and just a very light smoky flavor. The barbecue sauce again was so "spot on" with taste and flavor that after dining I told their management it tasted exactly what we expect if we were at an American barbecue restaurant in America! We all got Deluxe Cheeseburgers which come with lettuce, tomato, onion, mayonnaise and cheddar cheese (two of us added crisp bacon to our Cheeseburgers which took them up to a sensational delight to bite into!). The taste, flavor and juiciness of the beef was spot on with a explosion of flavor combining the crispness of the lettuce, the gentle "bite" of onion, the cheesy taste of the cheddar and the creaminess of the mayo that one would expect when biting into a perfect cooked and prepared burger! (And for those who added the bacon...Wow!!! Again, the crispy flavorful taste and texture of the bacon took their burgers to the next level!) We do plan on returning before we head back home to have another meal at Big Al's and that trip we plan on getting their Onion Rings which looked amazing! Highly recommend you give them a try! read more

Me and my fat friends have never ever in our existence ate such exquisite and full burgers in our entire lives.

Expensive but only compared to other local food places. Totally normal prices if you are from America. Cool place, great staff, fun music and LEGIT food. I got the Patty Melt and it was on point. Good curly fries too. It is kind of cheesy to get American food in Spain but I have been over here for about a month and eaten many amazing things but tonight I just felt like an old school burger and the Patty Melt jumped out at me. Easy to give a 5 star review. read more

Big Al's - Legit Patty Melt - American Near Me - Sitges, B

Bad service Bad attitude The waiter with black curly hair didn't like that we went into an empty restaurant and wanted us sit near the window where it was COLD. Actually wagged his finger at us to sit where he wanted us to sit and then slammed the menus on the table. We turned around and walked out slamming the door behind us. Never going back NEVER. Beware of this place. I am never negative but this place was beyond real. DISAPPOINTING AND NOT FRIENDLY. read more

I have been to Sitges many times and I have never visited Big Als despite seeing the great reviews on Yelp and TA. They moved to a newer premises in the past year which I think looks more inviting. The two of us decided it was a night away from tapas so we headed here. Funnily enough, the first thing we saw when we walked in was our two friends sitting down ordering. Great minds think alike!! The staff are very friendly and helpful. We all tried the burgers and the house draft beer. The burgers are wonderful- the best I have eaten in a long time. We were very stuffed at the end with no room for dessert. I am glad that we decided to skip starters too- the burgers are that filling. I love tapas and wine but sometimes you want a change, and burgers and beer in Big Als is a very tasty and welcome change. Try it - you wont be disappointed. read more

We have been eating at Big Al's since we first started visiting Sitges in 2013. The restaurant is 30 seconds from the train station, so it's pretty easy to find. Once there you will find the spacious, cool and gorgeous restaurant. Reservations are not required and you can usually get seated quickly, even for larger parties (we had 6 in our party and we're seated immediately). The service was really great with us being seated and drinks served immediately. The servers are loaded with iPads and took our table order in no time at all, this was a nice touch. The prices here were very reasonable for the portions you get. I would recommend trying the Mushroom Dijon burger. It's really yummy. Word of warning, regarding size of portions. The small burger is enough for a normal person, the large is huge. Burgers are served pink, so you should let the server know if you want the patties well cooked. Also try the sweet potato fries. They add a bit of sugar and cinnamon to these and they were a real twist on a classic. Try out the craft beers also, Big Sissy is a nice larger and refreshing after a day baking in the 30° heat. read more

So this is Big Al's. The best in Spain according to one Sitges website that we read. We also read about queues out the door. But, come on, can it really be that good? We arrived at one, when they opened, but they told us they weren't open yet. The extra walk we took just built up our appetites. And boy did we need some space! The Big Al is a big 13-Euros, 4-patties kind of a burger, with minimal salad, a decent amount of melted cheese and some sauce that helps draw out the best of the meat flavour, without drowning it. The bean burger is also might fine, full of flavour and with great texture. It's a bit crumbly, but we let them off that because bean burgers are hard to hold together and the quality was otherwise high. Then there were curly fries. For me, curly fries don't cut the mustard. But for my eating partners, they were top notch. We were done after the burger and fries. No need for anything else and we were glad not to have ordered starters even those coming out of the kitchen looked great. For drinks, we ordered from the 8-strong craft beer menu and we were not disappointed - fresh, crisp beers hit the spot. The other clientele were in their 20s and 30s except for one elderly couple who obviously know a good thing when they see it. read more

Favorite American food place! Everything I miss from California I have here! The food is amazing, the ketchup is actually better here than back at home and the staff is very nice. The only probably it's far from Barcelona! read more

I like this place. They have nice beer! the hamburgers are also tasty and you can choose them with fries or salad. I have been here with the family and on my own. Great place for hamburger lovers and those that enjoy a different beer. Great place every time I have the chance I will come here! read more

Great burgers, but the signature ones are HUGE! The are truly american style, with up to 6 meat patties in one burger! - Curly fries were awesome. Some of the best curly fries I've had in a long time, especially in Spain. - Pulled pork Nacho's were just what you expect. Awesome. They come with some jalapeños that are proper spicy. - They have 4 American craft beers on tap. 1 lager, 1 white beer and 2 IPA's. - We had the BBQ and the Delux burgers, both were size "small", but came with 2 patties each! Curly fries were standard. - Staff were great and friendly. No bookings/ reservations possible. All in all, this place is on the cutting edge of the American burger trend in Catalonia. read more

Big Al's - Not much to say other than AMAZINGLY GOOD! Great service and hot, fresh burger and fries!!!!! - American Near Me - Sitges, B

I had been in Big Al's in the previous location and they have improved the ambiance inside, it looks less Grease kind of American and more stylish, much better for my taste, but that's just it :). We had the menu, with Cheese Quesadillas + Deluxe Burger and they have the best burger in Spain by TripAdvisor for a reason... Absolutely great!! They were pretty fast in serving, just the right timing. The waiter was very friendly and funny and spoke English. Definitely coming back again when I visit Sitges!! For gay visitors: it's ran by bears! Haha amazing! :D Cheers! read more

It's sooo good. Mad respect I have to go back! Ok So we were looking for a good burger joint and thought we found one until Thomas the owner of our hotel told us about the best burger in town. We stopped by and it was still closed about 1200 noonish so we decided to wait and went back about 0200 and it was packed. We sat down at the bar and ate. The beer was great. Big Al had a good selection and the burgers they serve will compete with any in America. We met Big Al and he's awesome. We will stop by one more time before we leave. read more

Great selection, attentive waitstaff, gluten-free food selection was on point, however, it would be nice to have some gluten-removed beers available. I had a burger medium rare with pulled pork and bacon on lettuce and it was fantastic :) read more

Guys....very overrated. Trust me I know a good burger (I live in LA and I am a foodie) 40 euro that I paid for two hamburgers was not worth the experience. Staff was nice and service was good, just the food was blah... read more

You can't go wrong with anything you order here, it's all fantastic! The curly fries are a must! I'm also a fan of the pulled pork quesadillas and the eight hour pulled pork burger. The staff is very friendly and speaks english as well. Would highly recommend if you're looking for a good burger! read more

This place is really overrated. Just calling it an "American burger" doesnt mean that it has quality to it. Sure, the hamburgers are huge (even the normal sized ones) and the price is reasonable for the amount of food you get (although I could see a majority of guest leaving food). But, the hamburgers lack the taste and depth that a really good burger has. Plus you don't have any choice in fries (not very American I'd say), they only serve their own curly fries that we didn't appreciate, thought they had a taste of onion. read more

Everyone raved about the burgers so I was skeptical. I was not disappointed! Can't wait to go back! The mushroom burger was incredible!!

Two thumbs up! Great burgers, quality and service. Had the small burger, trust me it's not "small". Would recommend...
