Big Jim's Roast Beef offers friendly service and a welcoming atmosphere. The menu features delicious dishes, including the Italian sub and Super Beef. The beef is tender, thin sliced, and served rare, often piled high on toasted buns. The Super Beef is especially popular, with tender roast beef and a slightly sweet sauce. The buffalo tender sub is crispy and flavorful, and the onion rings are highly recommended. The portions are large and good value for the price. The tortellini salad is also a favorite among customers.
Customers praise the roast beef sandwiches, with some noting how authentic and tasty they are—reminding many of home. The sandwiches are simple, with bread, beef, and cheese as main ingredients, and BBQ served on the side. Occasionally, buns may be burnt, which can affect the flavor, but overall, the food is consistently good and quick to serve. The restaurant is a small, walk-up place with outdoor seating, perfect for casual dining. It is known for its delicious sandwiches and friendly owner, who recently donated proceeds to a fundraiser. Many visitors from far away have enjoyed the authentic taste and plan to return.
