Big Heads Grill & Bar

Reviewed By jabooty

Big Heads disappoints time and time again. I keep giving it chances, but its as if the plan is to just open the doors and people will come. Food incredibly (incredibly) average at best. Service will get to you eventually. Lighting is like a fire drill bright at night. It's even cold inside. It would just be convenient if it were decent, but they need a bar/restaurant intervention from a manager of Tiger's Tale. Nothing fancy but good food, cold beer and help...that helps you enjoy your meal, getting you what you need. Here, your beer glass will be empty and go dry at times. It's unfortunate. Perhaps the next restaurant in this location will have management that runs a show attracting guests. Big Heads doesn't and my wife now refuses to go with me, saying it just won't change...so I won't be going anymore either. I drive by looking at the sign, waiting for it to change name...only a matter of time.

Reviewed By 179cynthiaf

The restaurant was full, so the service wasn't as attentive as I had expected, and the tables were close enough together that the conversations from adjacent tables was annoying. I noticed that none of the servers were smiling and I found that odd.I enjoyed my three appetizers and they were so filling that I didn't have room for dessert, other than a delicious glass of Warrior Port.I recommend the poached pear salad (I ordered the dressing on the side), the tuna tartare and the gnocchi (with brussel sprouts, feta and squash or pumpkin puree.)

Had the brisket bbq tacos and they were really good for a change of pace. The ribs were OK not as good as TGI Fridays. The garlic green beans were good but super garlicy. Fries typical. Cole slaw nothing special.Our waitress was very nice and competent. Place was clean. Prices are typical.

Went out with 10 friends to watch the game. Great beer selection including Hillsborough local Flounder brewery. Only downer is the kitchen closes at 9, too early for game snacks. Overall we love this place as it is local Che is and you get 20% off on Tuesday’s if you live in town.

Old Man Rafferty's

Reviewed By K16kid

We went out for the evening with our adult children and grandchildren and haven't been to Rafferty's in a while. My wife had a lobster dish, I had the shrimp po boy, my son had the stuffed flounder, and his wife had the french dip. The salads Keaton, our waitress, brought were huge, the blue cheese dressing pretty much right on. The dinners arrived and each and every one looked spectacular. If only they tasted as good as they looked. My son's comment about the stuffed flounder was that it had no flavor - next time he'll order fish with flavor. My wife's lobster special was merely a shell pasta with some lobster in a sauce - ok, not great. My daugher-in-law's french dip was fine, but nothing to write home about. And my shrimp po boy was ok - I've had better elsewhere. For the price you pay, it was unanimous at our table - there are better restaurant choices. The highlight of the night - our waitress Keaton - excellent service. If only the food were as good as it looks or as good as her service. Thanks Keaton.

Took granddaughters here. Not a good place with kids, too slow, melt down ensued. The food was ok, but I think it sat a while before it came out. Will try again when we do an adult night out.
