Everything was so delicious! I don't like lamb, but the lamb fricasse was amazing. My Greek friends were very impressed.

Went for a baby shower, great food. The fetta salad was delicious and the chicken was huge!

We dine here frequently for the delicious food, great service and comfortable dining room. All of the food is great, but we particularly like the best baby back ribs we can find, the lamb dishes, chicken lemonato, etc. Always a pleasant night out.

My family and I visited this Greek restaurant after a full day of flying, and the food itself was fantastic — fresh, flavorful, and exactly what we needed.

But the end of the meal was a mess. We were only told after dinner that the restaurant doesn’t split checks or allow individual payments. With several different family groups at our table, this created a level of chaos that easily could’ve been avoided with upfront communication.

We ended up sitting there for over 20 minutes trying to figure out how only three people could somehow cover a bill of more than $400. One family member had to leave to go to the bank, and another had to put a large portion of the table’s bill on their credit card just so we could get out of there.

The food was great, but the checkout situation was extremely stressful. Simply stating the “no split checks” policy before seating guests would save a lot of frustration for large parties like ours.

Good specials (the soups are homemade. The Clam Chowder was great). Great service and a nice atmosphere.

I used to frequently drive past Big Tommy's Parthenon, until my wife and I wanted a place we'd never been to before. For years, we were missing out! Big Tommy's menu is not only extensive, but the Greek cuisine is top notch (specifically the lamb dishes)!! I always ask for the waiter named Ceasar. He's very knowledgeable and helpful if you're not quite sure what to order. The decor is very nice and welcoming, and they have live comedy shows down in the lower level!!! Folks don't miss out for years like I did before I finally went there, treat yourself......

We had a great dinner with in-laws from Texas. We couldn't have picked a better place. It was perfect.

I love this place so much! From having roots from new Hellas Café in Detroit, where I used to fall asleep in my mom's lap, two today out in Novi, there is no better Greek place in my opinion! The food is outstanding and is as good or better than it was 50 or 60 years ago when I was a little kid! Your service is always outstanding and I love that Tommy, young Tommy! Is so polite and helpful. I believe the last two times we have been here he has helped us, and he has been nothing less than truly great. Way to carry on the tradition! You've got to get the lamb chops! And you've got to get the Greek salad, family style! Make sure you have the rice and green beans along with those chops! But virtually everything else is excellent on the menu too. This is a go to for Greek! And again, in my opinion, the only place to go in the Detroit Metropolitan area.

This was our first visit and we will return! We were seeking a genuine Greek restaurant comparable to Pegasus in Greektown but located in Oakland County. The food was delicious and plentiful and I heard my “OPA!”

Big Tommy's is a Novi gem. The food and service are exceptional. In fact it was so delicious that we ate there three nights in a row. The menu has a wide variety of options, so each night we were able to try new things. And each night was just as delicious as the others. It is a true family owned and operated restaurant, and they make you feel right at home. I highly recommend you give Big Tommy's a try. You definitely will not be disappointed.
