Unfortunately this restaurant was not good at all. The first bad sign was that it was nearly empty. While the waitress was friendly and the service was fine, the food wasn't very good. The charcuterie platter could have been assembled from grocery store items. The cauliflower was too salty and was with an unidentified firm cheese. It was just a strange dish. The fries were not crispy and had half melted large pieces of cheese on them. It was Wednesday and so steak night, and the steak didn't seem like great quality and the mac'n'cheese was extremely bland and underseasoned. the restaurant and bar were out of a number of items we attempted to order. The entire vibe was that of a restaurant about to go out of business.

Seems like a work in progress. There was no one at the door to check in for reservations. Service was adequate and friendly but SLOW! They did not have ingredients for many of the cocktails on the menu. I had to order my dinner at the bar, but then he apparently forgot to put the order in. He did stop by to apologize. Good thing I was not in a hurry. Steak Night (Wednesdays and Sundays) was a good deal; it's decent for un-aged steak. Music, while I enjoyed, was LOUD, even in the patio; there's nowhere inside or out to have a quiet conversation! 20% gratuity was included on the bill.

Just flew in to visit some friends and family in Texas and we had an awesome time at The Big Casino! We had a bunch of different small bites with some of their craft cocktails. The atmosphere is super chill, perfect for hanging out with friends or enjoying a laid-back evening. Definitely a spot worth checking out if you're in the area.

Great establishment, very friendly, professional and great customer service. The recent renovations are awesome and there is plenty of space to entertain all types of events. The outside patio is also a cool hangout spot to enjoy a nice day. Definitely recommend this The Big Casino to friends, co-worker and family. Not everyday you can hangout at a place so rich with history.

Service was horrible. We waited 20 minutes for two glasses of coffee and two waters. It took them one hour to bring our food which were the skillets that had half an egg on there and a large portion of fries, which is not in the description, worst service, and worst food I’ve had in Houston, also they charged automatically 20% gratuity for a table of four. Would not recommend this place in any capacity.

We showed up for an 11 am brunch reservation and the doors were locked, no staff in sight and no one would even answer the phone. Definitely don’t recommend and won’t ever come back!

We came for happy hour and the drinks were delicious, food as well and service was great! We got charged mandatory tip, so that was little weird. But all good in general. We will definitely be back!

This place is has potential !! It's definitely in a good location but that's it, for now!!! The staff did their best!! It's really under staff and I commend the staff that showed up to work. I hope this review doesn't affect the ones that showed up. The place management needs help!
