| - The "Biggest" part of BigMan's is the over-sized, confusing menu that it is as vague on some items as it is over-descriptive on others. The staff doesn't know the menu items, but the food is pretty decent. The sauces and dough are pretty awesome - and the pasta here is better than what's offered by chains like Pizza Hut or Dominos.
This time I ordered their small pizza combo. The pizza comes with tomato sauce, and a blend of mozzarella and brick cheese (not mentioned on the menu). I topped it with pepperoni, bacon and green peppers.
I also ordered 10 wings, plain, with medium sauce. And I asked for my garlic bread to be upgraded to cheese bread - because the cheese bread is sooo cheesey.
I actually really liked everything - the pizza was good, garlic bread came with cheese, as requested, and even the wings tasted better than they looked. I like them "naked,"(un-breaded) and find they are always crunchier and better when ordered plain and with sauce on the side, which is how these came, so I enjoyed them, although the medium sauce isn't as good as my at-home Frank's Buffalo. It arrived in 30 minutes with no delivery fee, so that's not too shabby! Tasted fresher and was cheaper than Pizza Pizza.
Last time, I got the gnocchi with spinach, sundried tomatoes and chicken. It is an enormous portion - easily enough for two or three people. It came within 25 minutes - bonus points.
The pasta was actually very tasty. The tomato sauce was very flavourful, if a bit garlicky for some. The sundried tomatoes were moist and spinach was well, there was a lot of it. The chicken, however, was so completely overcooked and dried out that it was inedible. I just picked around it and ate the rest, satisfied.
Note that the menu doesn't mention the pasta already comes with garlic bread. I wasted money on buying even more garlic bread - which was too much. Again, I wish someone had explained that on the phone.
Their menu is confusing as Hell - to the staff, too. The pasta I ordered was described as coming with "sauce." No particular variety - cream, tomato, rose, olive oil - was mentioned. And the Homemade cannelloni doesn't mention what is actually inside of it - lol. When I asked, after like a 5 minute wait, she said "No meat. Just cheese and vegetables." Yet still no description of what kind of vegetables. That's a little odd...
Still, it tastes pretty good.
