Bartender was amazing, manager was amazing. Food was amazing. Love the menu set up and portion sizes for the side. Can't believe more places dont do it this way. Also, the Maple Bacon Old Fshioned was a hit. Recommend making a reservation because it is small, but worth it.

So good! Nice, clean restaurant with delicious food, and stellar service. I only got a few pics because I was hungry. My ribeye was incredible. The grilled shrimp with mango sauce was yummers, the asparagus with lemon aiolo was splendid, and the onion rings were phenomenal

Nice place. Very expensive no sides included. Qr code menu. Near touchless customer service for price.

First and foremost, Id like to get the good stuff out of the way. The restaurant and staff were very clean, and I enjoyed the atmosphere of the building. For that they earned a star. Now, the bad: parking is very competitive and the alleyway you have to maneuver through coming off of Virginia street is tight. Granted, I cannot fault the restaurant staff or owners for this, but it is worth noting.

Food is overpriced for what you get. Quality of food is on par with chain steakhouses like Outback, but at more than double the price. We got the NY strip and Fillet with the butter herb sauce. The meat was fairly bland, and was only saved by the butter sauce. Sides are not included in the price of the steak and cost an extra $4 each, which puts the total cost of the cheapest steak meal with 2 sides at $44. Granted, its a 10oz steak, but its a mediocre steak with small sides. At Texas Roadhouse, you can get a 12oz NY strip with 2 sides included for $21.99. Now, I'd be willing to pay a higher price for a better steak, but there is not a significant enough jump in quality to justify the price increase.

Service was also lacking. The Biggest Little Steakhouse operates like a fast food joint, where you order at the cashier's desk or through your phone. Then when your order is ready, it is brought out to you. Normally, you wouldn't tip in a fast food restaurant because of how much self service you have to do. It is much the same here. This also makes it difficult to enjoy the close, intimate atmosphere, as your have to leave your company at the table to order if you don't want to go through the app.

Additionally, the POS (point of sales) system used for mobile ordering is unintuitive, and difficult to navigate due to its poor design and the shear amount of menu items that the app makes no effort to categorize for you. Just as an example, the submenu titles are lighter than the submenu items, which is the exact opposite of how a list should be organized, as it makes it very easy to skip over the section tiles, and end up in a completely different section of the menu than the one you intended to find. This is the exact opposite of what basic signage and UI principals teach, as the submenu titles are supposed to be bigger and higher contrast than the items in the submenu. If I were the Biggest Little Steakhouse, I would seriously consider redesigning the mobile menu because it actively detracts from the experience of dining in their restaurant.

Overall, while none of the issues I've stated are bad on their own, when combined in a restaurant that charges ~$50/ person, I cannot recommend the Biggest Little Steakhouse because the combined experience simply does not justify the price.

I was pleasantly surprised with this place! I was a little put off at first with the ordering style as you are advised you can order up front like a fast casual, or you can order from a QR scan thru your phone. That seemed really weird for a steak house, but in hindsight it really didn’t matter, and I feel like the service was better since the staff didn’t have to worry about taking orders in the old fashion way. All the food was superb! The potatoes au gratin was so delicious that we literally ordered another small size for our dessert. The complementary cookies made my inner foodie so HAPPY! I loved the Cesar salad- my only complaint would be that the croutons were extremely hard and felt like I was going to chip a tooth, so I had to kind of crack them apart on the plate, but still they were very difficult to chew, and they tore up my gums a little bit. I am a firm believer that restaurants with small menus should have outstanding flavors, and this place definitely hit the spot. The staff were all very kind and courteous, great experience!

Steaks were perfectly cooked. Shrimp were crunchy and delicious. The loaded baked potato's creamy salty butteriness complimented the entire meal. Wonderful atmosphere and vibe. Excellent wait staff. Solid excellent place that deserves another visit.

Our family really loved this restaurant, it’s rustic atmosphere but yet the calming music along with the ambience was really enjoyable !! The food was excellent both the New York Strip and the Balsamic Salmon ! The coolest thing is unless you’re a big group each person orders and pays for their own meal by scanning a QR code in the center of the table so everyone goes Dutch treat 😃there are no mixed tabs to worry about !! We highly recommend this restaurant and especially ask for BRICE to be your server !! He’s great and very attentive to your table !!! They do accept reservations so make sure to call ahead and ask for Brice’s table seating …..their New York Strip , The filet , balsamic salmon, Mac/cheese and augratin potatoes are excellent choices and the presentation of your order when delivered is exceptional !!! Great Chef !!!! They are a 5 Star ⭐️ restaurant !! YUMMY !!!!

Everything was perfect, and we were there for happy hour. 30% off steaks, $4 drafts, $8 shareable apps, and they gave us a warm snickers doodle cookie for free for dessert! It was excellent! We are from Ohio, and friends from Phoenix recommended for us to try them. They were spot on!
