Big Daddy's

Food here is so good and I highly recommend eating here!! It's the best New Orleans style food I've had in new york.

The food snd drinks are fantastic. I ordered the Mighty Quinn's Fried Chicken and it was absolutely amazing. The Gator appetizer was very good as well.

The live music is fantastic.

They can't seem to get you in on time on reservations. We always have to 30+ minutes.

Wow! What can I say. I have friends from the baton rouge area and I've had some of the best food in Louisiana. This was absolutely right up there with the best cajun style food I've had. Totally outstanding!

Big Daddy's is a prime example of what makes Long Island's food scene so great: diverse options in the suburbs for those nights you can't or don't want to schlep into the city. The dishes range from the savoury to the spicy to the just plain quirky and often Venn diagrams across all three. Where else can one enjoy a fine Sazerac, alligator skewers that really *do* taste like chicken and also crawfish tails in peanut sauce that SOMEHOW WORK together as a dish? Additionally, the staff are all incredibly friendly and accommodating and ensure your meal is prepared exactly as ordered, with each course well paced. I also highly recommend Big Daddy's for birthdays and other celebrations. It is a great space for lots of people, of all ages, and depending on the day, there's even live music! It had been far too long since my last visit here, and I won't make the same mistake again.

Went for dinner on Friday night and 6/6:15pm is the perfect time to arrive as we were seated right away and the restaurant was still quite empty. The music started at 7pm and that is when it started to get very crowded so get there early and hang out for the music. The place definitely has a great vibe and atmosphere. We ordered the pasta jambalaya, the pig out, and a side of grits. I was torn between the pasta jambalaya and shrimps and grits. I ended up choosing the pasta with a side of grits and it was definitely the right choice. The pasta was delicious and a nice portion, it was quite spicy on its own and we almost asked for extra spicy(I would not recommend getting it any hotter). The pasta also was delicious leftover a few days later. The grits were a great choice as side, they were fluffy and delicious. They did not taste spicy while I was eating them but when I reheated them the next day they did. I did see someone who ordered the shrimps and grits and it looked quite soupy and I do not think you would really get to enjoy the taste of the grits with that meal. The mussels also looked extremely delicious. As for the pig out, I have ordered similar meals at other restaurants so I was expecting a very large amount of food but when it came I was underwhelmed by the amount that they gave. It was still a good amount of food but nowhere near what I was expecting but all of the items were very delicious and cooked very nicely. If I had to choose one I would definitely go with the brisket. Next time for the price I would probably just order 2 different sandwiches as opposed to the pig out.
