The piece of Florida history and a great tribute to the neighboring University of Miami! Love the Football memorabilia exhibited throughout. The portions are quite large so plan accordingly. #bigcheese #miami #pizza #pasta #garlicroles #football #classic #universityofmiami #um #florida

-Flies buzzing around the place, disgusting, place is not clean. -Look at the pictures of the flies stacked up less than 5ft from where they prepare pizza... -If I could give a zero I would, they don't deserve a star. Ordered for pickup, they say ready in 20, Arrived 31 minutes after phoning in, they forgot to make one of the two pizza pies I order the rest of my order is getting cold, finally walk out 47 minutes after calling in the order I shouldn't have eaten the food but did, hopefully I don't get sick. The Garlic rolls had 0 garlic on them, and were burned on the bottom. Both pizza were a floppy mess, see photos. I felt awful for my Mom who got the Cauliflower crust pizza, absolute sloppy mess, see photos, she ended up throwing it in the trash.

I love the restaurant. I didn’t wait to be seated. The service was excellent. Staff polite and kind. The garlic bread is so delicious, but leave space because the dishes are huge. I ordered the eggplant parmigiana and for my date cheese pizza. The pizza wasn’t served at the same time as my plate. That’s a no no. Thank God we shared my eggplant and spaghetti. The tomato sauce was tasty, but at the beginning I felt it was too much. But no, the combination between the sauce, eggplant and their spaghetti really good. The past is Perfect, Al dente. The restaurant has a lot of options of American-Italian food in the menu. I’m definitely coming back.

I have been coming here for many years and I just visited this place recently. It is a great local restaurant located in South Miami. Parking can be difficult, but there is parking available in the back. My girlfriend and I split a steak Cesar salad and they bought it to us in two separate plates. They provided us with a lot of food with a lot of flavor. Their garlic rolls are amazing and always great service. They constantly check up on us and always filling our drink’s. This place never changes; always great food and good service. I always look forward to coming here.

Good local pizza spot. It's our favorite pizza place in South Miami so far. Ordered for pick up and it was pretty quick (20 min). The garlic rolls are made to order and very garlic-y. I also like that you can order half sandwiches/subs. Very solid 3.5/5 in terms of Yelp rating.

We were 2 people for dinner on a Thursday at 6pm. There was a wait of about 20 mins. Not bad for this place that always has a line and is worth the wait. The hardest part was parking. But once seated I recommend the garlic knots. You can not go wrong with the pizza. Love it! I can’t have dairy so I asked about options and the server was so helpful and found a delicious chicken Francisee. I’ve never had a bad meal here. Spaghetti and meatballs delicious. (Clam sauce- not so good). Know you’ll spend time waiting for a table but it’s worth it.

The Big Cheese has been around for the longest I can remember. They’re huge sponsor is University of Miami and it has a very friendly vibe to the spot. It’s one of the first places you think of when you want something homey. I had ordered over the phone, expecting it to be ready in the time they allotted for me, and it wasn’t. The person in the front even charged the card incorrectly and they had to re do. I understand… mistakes happen and we’re human, but I was really hoping to grab and go. Since the parking wasn’t any better. I then took everything to the car— grateful I could carry everything in one try to the car. To then realize someone parked behind me and there was no one in the car to ask them to move. I was already on a time crunch with my supervisor because the getting ready of the food had taken a while. Also, they had attended other guests while I was waiting and picking up the phone… I understand the staff might be low, and lunch time is extremely busy, but it would not be a bad idea to hire an intern or someone for two hours a day to help those scenarios. Finally got out, had lots of anxiety, got to work, food was great! That was a plus. Very tastey!

Even though I have moved once, as has the Big Cheese, in the past 38 years - they moved across the street and I moved many miles away. I travel the distance to enjoy their delicious food, I eat in the restaurant and than take many dishes home to enjoy later reheated from my freezer. Service has always been good as has the quality and delicious food.

I ordered out. The guy that took my order was super nice as well as the delivery guy the food was insane!!! Best penne ala vodka ever!

This is classic Miami pizza joint and bar with lots of other dishes on the menu. We had the Caesar salads with a variety of protein toppings and a fried shrimp basket. The portions were substantial and everything tasted great. Good for lunch and a night of fun.

A staple in our community! This place hasn't changed. I mean literally, they have not changed or updated anything. Most of the times you would think that's a bad thing, but in this case it's great. I love that it still has the same feel since growing up! The food is always great, don't forget to get those garlics rolls.

The classic Miami Hurricanes pizza joint. Excellent service and you get exactly what you pay for. Consistency starts with the garlic knots. Do not forget to order them. I also recommend the stuffed shells and the chicken parm sandwich. The pizzas are not fancy but heavy NY slices. College pizza 🍕 place. Great for a hangover.

I get here about once or twice a year, but they never disappoint! Great pizza, great wings, great service! Very good prices! and Josh was great!

This place is amazing. I have passed by this place over a 1000 times and never stopped once. I decided to stop today for the first time, and the food and the service were awesome. This will become one of my favorite places for Italian food.

Had a great lunch here. Lots of great UM memorabilia from the years. We had sandwiches that were fantastic. Friendly and fast service.

What can I say The Big Cheese is a Miami instution and it's because the food and service are awesome. I even used them for a large catering event and they delivered right on time and with everything you could ask for. They were so easy to work with and very polite and professional. If your looking for a great meal there or a catered event this is the spot.

This restaurant isn’t fancy, mote like a dive with charm, but the food is INCREDIBLE!!! Not just the pizzas, but the subs, wings appetizers, and yes, the pasta dishes. I had the best pink pasta and chicken parm that I have ever had!!!! Prices are unbelievable and the service phenomenal. A must go restaurant ♥️

Can’t go wrong it’s “The Big Cheese” Always a great experience. Ordered large cheese pizza 1/2 pepperoni and we shared a Lasagna. True garlic rolls. Tiramisu completed the dinner. The pizza was just as good the next morning cold out of the fridge for breakfast. Priceless! I recommend aside from your dinner plate always order a large pizza you can take home the leftovers. The pizza is always better the next day either way warm or cold out of the fridge.

This was our first time at Big Cheese Miami. Our family consisted of 10 members. The food and service were incredible and the prices were reasonable. Our server Danny was efficient, knowledgeable and had a delightful personality. Even though we live in Broward, the ride is worth it!!! Thank you Bill for a memorable day! 😊

Such a delicious pizza! Everybody was super cool. I honestly recommend it :)

The food never fails to amaze and the service was outstanding. Been to this place quite a few times and always a repeat when you desire pizza or pasta. And their garlic rolls are too die for.

I LOVE this place, not only the food is delicious and the portions shareable but the employees are so extremely nice!! From management to the cooks, everyone makes you feel at home. Do yourself a favor and go eat here!

I've been coming here for years. Even met the owner twice, he was very nice. The staff is always attentive and the food is always hot and delicious. Best garlic rolls this side of the Mississippi.

This is one of my favorite restaurants even though I now can't eat much of anything there due to my milk allergy. The pizza is the ABSOLUTE BEST! I also LOVE the garlic knots cooked fresh! Majority of the employees have been there for over 10 years. The feel of the atmosphere and company culture is family. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this restaurant! #stefsentyou

Always great. The best pizza in Miami for many years.

Wow! Definitely do not pass it up! Awesome food and service!! Very large portions at a great price! 👍🏻

Hands down one of the best Italian places on the planet... Their garlic rolls are unsurpassed. Everything is fresh made daily. The food is just unbelievable and the portions are great. The staff is amazing and has been there forever.

Garlic bread delicious!! Pizza is the best in town. You can't go wrong with this place. 35 years and still best pizza in town.

Wish there were more restaurants like this. Great employees and unbelievable food. Even if your a rival football fan go support the local business doing amazing work with pizza. Go CANES🙌 DON'T FORGET YOUR TSHIRT
