Friendly neighborhood place. Plenty of regulars, but everyone was nice. I had their chicken, some gizzards, and fries. Everything was great. Generous portions.

I live in walking distance from this establishment which is convenient for me. I do not drink alcohol but I do enjoy karaoke which Big Al has on Friday and Saturday nights. I can not speak for the bar service or beverage quality but the reason I gave three stars is because of the outdated karaoke software as well as guy that DJh's on Friday nights.The first time I stopped in here to sing was great. He pulled the song I wanted to sing off of YouTube and got me right in the rotation I sang my song and went home, it was great.The next time I stopped in to sing the DJ had obviously been drinking if being rude and obnoxious is a symptom of being drunk for him.Right off the bat he seemed annoyed that I wanted to sing and then when I requested my song I was told he didn't have it. He could only play what was already in the ancient and limited karaoke program. When I reminded him that I was just in the week before and he pulled it off YouTube for me he denied it and said it must have been on Saturday and I had him confused with that DJ. You know? Because I was so drunk the previous weekend I obviously was confused.... So when I stop in the next night and again request my song just to be told he didn't have it and that the Friday DJ brings his own equipment so it had to have been him.Needless to say it left a bad taste in my mouth and I haven't been back. Update software and equipment and replace the Friday night DJ and I will give 5 stars.

Big Al's really came through for a grieving family when their plans for a Celebration of Life fell through at the last minute. The staff went above and beyond to accommodate them. Thanks so much.
