| - I've been to Big Daddy's many times and the food is above average, but definitely inconsistent. The first time I came here, the creole mussels were AMAZING, and rocked my world. The second time I got them, the sauce was alright but the mussels were so dry (perhaps overcooked?) and the portions were so small.
I've tried several mains (Jambalaya, Steak, Lobster Grilled Cheese to name a few), but they were all just OK, nothing special. I have heard great things about the bronzed fish, so next time I go, that is the dish that I am def going to try. I love the idea of set prix-menus and each time I've gone, I always opt for the $26 choice. The food is okay, however, the desserts are just too sweet for me. One time, the waiter noticed I barely touched my dessert and was nice enough to offer an exchange for a different dessert, but by then I was already way too full so I declined. I do commend him on his effort and superb customer service though.
The only reason I come to Big Daddy's is mainly for the oysters. If I were to rate them solely on the oysters, it would def be a 5/5 for quality! They are just perfect and come with nice horseradish and lemon, along with complementary sauces from mildly tangy to super spicy.
Overall, come for the oysters (which also won't be super cheap), but don't have too high expectations for the rest of the food.
