    My first time dinning at the big Lake Family Restaurant, and thoroughly enjoyed it. Probably, one of the best Country Fried Steaks I've ever ordered. The mashed potatoes and gravy are the closest to homemade you'll find eating out (I think they are homemade for the record) My wife ordered a Rubin Sandwich. She says it was delicious as well. Cute place with all the old time decor, a few of the things I spotted, I played with, as a little boy. I'm certain this will become a regular stop when we visit Alaska, ( 3 or 4 times a year right now till we build our retirement home soon )

    It has been many years since I've been here. Big changes and love the retro look and feel. The service was top notch and the food.... where to start. The Mexican food I ordered was excellent both in the amount and flavor. The onion rings are made on the spot fresh, YUMMY, best onion rings in the Valley in my opinion. My other half ordered the Original Philly and was larger then anticipated. Was good but a tad salty, I took a bite and agreed. Wait staff was excellent and not over bearing, 2 thumbs up there. I would recommend this place as a nice place and you get good food and is priced right. My food was worthy of tipping not only the wait staff but the cook got a tip personally delivered. 👍👍 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Good food. Friendly and good service. My son loved the Hungry Man Burger. The breakfast was very good. Biscuits and gravy were also good. The gravy had larger chunks of bacon and sausage. Overall a good meal!!

    My family and I stopped by for lunch today. It wasn't crowded today, but it can sometimes get busy depending on the day and time of day. The service was excellent and the food was fantastic. I had the Soth Philly and onion rings, my hubby had the soup bowl with the beans & cheese and my son had the chille relenos. We all enjoyed our meals. The food was hot, freshly cooked to order. The sandwich was perfect with a good portion of meat, veg and cheese. The onion rings were sooo good. My son loved his chille and rice. We were filled to the brim with good food, good music and unique collectibles the owner has throughout the Restaraunt. It was a cozy, enjoyable atmosphere and we will be back when we can.

    Has a great menu with choices for any taste. Especially like being able to order breakfast anytime of the day. If you are in Big lake this is the place to eat.

    Usually no wait here, friendly staff, extensive menu with a variety of genres from chicken fried steak to tacos. Prices are average for this style of restaurant, if not cheaper than most. Really fun decor throughout the building

    Had an amazing time until we got the bill. $100 for 2 meals?! That’s crazy! I think something didn’t get rung up correctly. Won’t let that harbor us from going back to eat however. Great and friendly waitresses and waiters. Love the antique decor.

    Quiet environment, clean, friendly, and a variety in the menu, you will not go wrong no matter what you choose. If you like Mexican food, don't forget to ask for the spicy salsa. It has a bite 🔥.
