Wow wow!!!!!! That’s all I can say. The food here is amazing. My girl and I went based off TikTok reviews. We were in West Palm beach for vacation and this place did not disappoint. I highly recommended the Oxtails and Grits and Banana French Toast. By far the best. I highly recommend this restaurant for brunch. We will be back…….

The flavor of the food was good; however, both the coffee and tea were not served hot, and I had to specifically ask for hot beverages. The food itself was also not hot, and the bread was hard, as if it had been sitting under a warmer for too long. Additionally, the food service took a considerable amount of time. This was my second visit, and while I may return in the future since I don’t live in the area, I wanted to share this feedback for consideration.

My wife and I usually check out YouTube reviews before visiting a new city so we can have a great food experience. Unfortunately, this spot was a huge letdown.
It took over 35 minutes for our food to arrive. We ordered the kids’ tenders and waffle meal and the French toast combo. A table that came in 15 minutes after us received their food right away—and based on their friendly exit with the staff, it’s safe to assume they knew someone.
The food itself was disappointing:
• The waffle triangles were hard and flavorless, with ice-cold syrup.
• The tenders were served cold.
• The add-on potatoes were the only highlight—delicious.
• The French toast? Not even worth reviewing.
My wife (who is pregnant) and I try to be patient with restaurants, but between the wait, the food quality, and the hype around this place, I can’t recommend it.
The only positive—our waitress was great.
Go at your own risk.

Went for an organization event and we were served a 5-course meal where we were able to try a variety of the menu. Flavor was on-point and the service was too! Will definitely be back

Big John’s Eatery in West Palm Beach isn’t just a place to eat, it’s an experience that feeds your soul as much as your stomach. The brunch here is out of this world: every plate is made with love, flavor, and a level of care you can taste from the very first bite. The service is warm, genuine, and makes you feel like family the moment you walk in.
But what makes this place truly powerful is what it represents for our community. Having a thriving, Black-owned restaurant like Big John’s is more than just a business, it’s a statement of excellence, culture, and empowerment. It’s a reminder that representation matters, that our flavors and traditions deserve a seat at the table, and that success can be built right here in our own neighborhoods.
Every visit leaves me full, inspired, and proud. Big John’s Eatery isn’t just serving brunch, they’re serving hope, heritage, and a bright future for the community. If you haven’t been yet, you’re missing out on something truly special.
