Very Disappointed - Will Not Return…read more I recently visited the Big Boy in Charlotte, MI and had a very unpleasant experience. The restaurant was extremely messy, and the salad bar was dirty and did not look safe to eat from. There appeared to be a lot of cross-contamination between the food items, which is a serious health concern. I also ordered the broccoli soup, but it was spoiled and completely inedible. When I mentioned this to the cashier, she didn't apologize or even offer to take it off the bill, which I found very unprofessional. On top of that, I ordered four adult meals but wanted an item from the kids' menu (Bosco sticks). A different waitress came back to tell me I couldn't order a kids' meal because I didn't have a child with me. Then she said the manager would "allow" me to have the $6.99 kids' meal for $8.99 just because I didn't have kids with me. That made absolutely no sense and felt like I was being taken advantage of. Overall, the restaurant was not clean, the food quality was poor, and the customer service was lacking. If the dining area looks this bad, I can only imagine what the kitchen looks like. I will not be returning.

This was terrible, our waiter had time to chat with other booths but not time to refill my water…read more Our forks were not washed properly and it took 35 minutes to get a sandwich and too burgers, Absolutely terrible never coming back.

"Hey!" The collie yelled. "I'm at McDonald's too!" The shepherd didn't reply, just stared, dumbstruck at their fun new friend. The collie tried again: "Hey! Hey! I'm in a car, too! Does it get any better than this?!" Six cars back, two huskies entered the chat transforming fast food gridlock into utter pandemonium. The huskies raced from one Side of the car to the other, colliding as they jumped from front to back, crushing their owner and howling out the windows as the car rocked violently "Hey! Hey! We're here too! Look! Back here! Look! Look! Can you hear us!? We're here too! Isn't this great‽" And the barking and the howling and the little shepherd still speechless and shook had every human in this breakfast traffic jam smiling, laughing hanging out our windows craning to better see these dogs having the best doggone time. And a dozen people alone in their metal cocoons, joined a jubilant symphony of love and freedom, conducted by four furry joy machines absolutely stoked to be out on a McMuffin run. And for five minutes we paused our poison pen debates, forgot we'd been told to hate the aliens within our gates and we all just smiled and laughed and joined the happy dog party. Five stars.

We were looking for some late night eats in the area and as I was reading out the yelp options for…read morewhat was open, my husband asked "What are gizzards?" so of course I had to bring him here so he could find out for himself. I think he went a little bit overboard however (as usual) because he ordered the gizzard sampler platter which came with plain, garlic & herb, and cajun chicken gizzards because he wanted to try them all. He admitted he should have just tried a small order. He did like the gizzards and they give a good amount of dipping sauces, but he said it was just way too much so we ended up throwing about half the order away. I ordered the deep fried olives to start and the smothered chicken for my meal. I love olives and the deep fried ones were tasty but a bit heavy and oily and if I'm being honest, i would have preferred just the olives themselves as an app. I did finish them later but it's definitely another item you have to eat in moderation. I personally though the potatoes with my meal were terrible. I like to eat potatoes without gravy but it wasn't possible with these. My husband drowned them in gravy and ate them for me. The chicken was fine though and the mushrooms were tasty. We went inside to order but ended up taking our meal to go. There was music and games and the employees and owner were very friendly but this is definitely a bar vibe spot where the locals come to drink and everyone knows each other. They had really good wifi and most importantly, my husband got to experience gizzards for the first time so I am glad we stopped in.

The food is old fashion home town cooking . The breakfast we ate was more than my daughter or I could finish with homemade raisin toast. Both breakfasts plus coffee for each of us was $20.00 that was with a generous tip. Yummy!!! Thank you to yelp for helping find a place to eat when I was out and about in a town I wasn't familiar with. read more

Can't go wrong with a draft Guinness or domestic beer, and everything was priced fairly - lunch items $9 to $12 is solid value in this day and age. The only thing I would caution is that the lettuce had that chemically-washed taste you get sometimes, so this isn't really the best spot for a salad. But it is cozy, old school, fairly priced, so I would say go on in and feel at home.

The friendly server team definitely keeps engaged with their guests. If you have a need, I think you won't have it for long here.

I also liked the mismatched mugs. They seemed seriously understaffed, and service was very slow. We ordered drinks, and waited long enough for someone to come back to take our food order that we were starting to wonder if they thought we were only getting drinks. There was another long wait for our food. When it arrived, it arrived in batches. One person ordered three tacos, but the order was entered wrong, so they only got one to start, and they had to wait quite a while for the other two. The food was good overall, but the portions were quite small. I did like the Bourbon Street French toast, particularly the caramel sauce. It could have used more bananas though. The fried pickles were good, as were the spicy mozzarella sticks. The steak omelet's sauce was odd. The nachos were good. The coffee and lattes were good.
