"Everything was good with the exception of the St. Louis ribs. They came out real dry and not a lot of meat on them disappointed in them but everything else was fine. Service was real good"

"This was our first time at Big Hoss. We took our teen age kids and it was a very good choice. I thought the food was pretty good for the price overall. I was a little disappointed in the 22 dollar "steak of the day" which was supposed to be a 14oz strip sirloin which came out with a bone fat and gristle and was much less edible meat then my son's 15 dollar house sirloin was thick juicy and didn't have a drop of fat on it, so I would recommend that you don't go for that option. However, everything else was wonderful. There BBQ sauce is a little spicy as well as their veggies so if you are very sensitive to spice be careful. Their location is wonderful and the place was nice. The people are great and overall the food was awesome."

"I thought that the food was good, my husband said that his food was luke warm but good overall. I asked for a shirley temple and it tasted like carbinated water, asked for another one and got the same thing; ended up with an ice tea. I think their soda machine wasn't working or something. Everyone that worked there was really nice and it was a great atmosphere!"
