   I had heard of Big Jones for a while, but never had the opportunity to partake. It was just excellent. The quality of the food was outstanding. While focused, the selections was broad enough to take care of someone like me, who is a bit picky due to diabetes. I will be returning. Excellent service staff.

   Chef Paul Fehribach's food is always on point. The spring menu is in place, and we loved the rhubarb tart, pickled ramps, soft shell crabs, fresh pea shoots, and more. A delightful experience.

   The weekend special of soft shell crab in tempura batter was excellent, accompanied by black rice. The skillet cornbread is a side dish we always order and enjoy as it is served straight out of the oven and hot. We loved the seasonal dessert of rhubarb tart topped with black walnut crumble and served with tres leches ice cream. It was a very satisfying meal.

   This was my fourth visit (5th if I include carryout). My friends and I enjoyed the food, the ambiance, and the great service. I highly recommend Big Jones if you seek a casual dining spot with EXCELLENT food.

   Everything great, but service still lagging somewhat in terms of timely execution (fairly lengthy wait between apps and entrees). No deal breaker, just an fyi. Servers were knowledgeable and professional, all the same.

   We had the Big Jones Benedict during the Weekend Brunch. The perfectly poached eggs were on their popovers rather than English muffins. It was delicious along with the potatoes O'Brian. Looking forward to trying their fried chicken and buttermilk biscuits.

   Visited for first time for Easter Brunch. Felt like a genuine southern establishment with menu to go with. Loved some items and others were satisfactory. But I have so many more menu items I can’t wait to try. Had a wonderful time. Look forward to next visit.

    We had the friend chicken, catfish and cornbread— everything was delicious and bonus gluten free! Have been there a few times and was happy to introduce my brother to their food whom happens to be gluten intolerant. Will continue to go and bring people for a great experience!
