The chowder could have been hotter. It usual is but tonight was lukewarm. That was disappointing

The service was excellent and the food was delicious. We had the fresh oysters and they did not disappoint. We're definitely coming back to Big Al's!

Worst margharita ever.. and the blackened chicken was so tough on top of very aldente noodles, I decided to skip it all together. Didn't even bother to take it to go. Very disappointed 😞
Sad as the staff was so pleasant...food was just 😞

It was 6 of us, we ordered about 30 blue point oysters and...we had to send them back. They tasted nothing like blue point we know and like, had sewer smell... Also ordered salmon, fish was just ok, rice super dry and tasteles. Servers weren't friendly and overall it wasn't enjoyable experience, we won't be back!!!

Just wish the food was as good as the bread basket. Seafood chowder was yummy. Would not recommend the scampi pasta or lobster roll.

Big Al’s Oyster bar was quite an experience. There was a language barrier so at first we difficulty understanding our server. We had to look for our server to pay our bill because the server came back! She never checked up on us which was weird because we did need help. The food was ok, gumbo had wayyyy too many peppers & not enough meat & rice in it. The bacon wrapped shrimp is a must try & the Oysters Rockefeller was delicious. 6/10

Service was good. Marie our greeter was sweet and let us choose what seats we wanted from what was available. Our waitress was friendly...but she was swamped with so many tables. The cold seafood platter was the best. 3 raw oysters, a few shrimps and 2-3 snow crab legs. The crab cakes were very overcooked and dry. We forced ourselves to share 1. The seafood pan roast tastes like spaghetti sauce with added cream. Missing the Nawlins flavor! The clam chowder was the best dish, but it truly had a lot of salt. Much more flavor than the pan roas though. It was a 1st time experience,but we doubt we will come back.

Fresh seafood. Bbq oysters were special. Their complimentary bread and butter goes well being dunked in their soups. Nilla banana dessert had real bananas in it!

We were really looking forward to eating here tonight. There were 4 of us. We had reservations. We got seated right away which was great. As we were waiting for waitress to take our order, we heard a loud bell being rung. My back was to it so it startled me every time they rang it and it was extremely loud. It reminded me of the big bell that would be rung on a farm to notify you to come in for dinner. Our same waitress brought our dinners out and had no idea who had what. She never checked in on us until she started taking away our plates. She even asked our friend while he was eating if she could take his plate. Throughout the whole dinner, the bell kept being rung. So I finally asked the waitress, what's with the bell ... and she informed us that it is rung when the wait staff is not there when the food comes out. The 4 of us were not impressed. The food was okay. The atmosphere was disappointing, the service was mediocre and we probably won't go back. She didn't even ask if we wanted 1 or 2 checks. It could have been a really nice dinner, It just wasn't.

Made a reservation for 9:30 on a saturday night. Got there a little early and was seated right away. I chose to sit at the bar as I was by myself. Server came up right away got my drink and brought me fresh bread which was very good. Ordered the jambalaya. Huge bowl and unbelievably good. One of the best dishes I've ever had. Needless to say, between the excellent service and the great food, next time in Vegas this will be a definate stop on my list and would recommend them to everyone.
