Restaurants

After an unimpressive night at Bodean's and on a constant search for some remotely authentic tasting American food in London, we went to Big Easy on the recommendation of a co-worker, taking along two Spanish couples who had never had BBQ. Booking left us with a 10pm slot on a Saturday night, since we were eating with the Spanish that time seemed appropriate. However, upon arrival, we found our table to be right in front of the two, seemingly British music only, guitar playing bores in the basement. The music was very loud, the crowd was very loud with two birthday parties happening around us, we could barely speak to each other. Since it was late we jumped straight to our mains, baby back ribs and chicken for everyone, sides of shoe string fries, no corn bread what a disappointment. The ribs, which we were excited about, were not worth the trip. While the sauce had a certain smokeyness, it was too sweet and lacked any real spice. The meat was dry dry dry, some of the slabs were very light on the meat. I asked for extra sauce and tobasco to try and salvage the experience. The beans and coleslaw were good, as were the shoe string fries and chicken, but I would hardly recommend a visit for these things. 18.00 pounds per person, an exorbitant amount of money for such a poor experience. Nothing close to the real thing, save your money for a trip to the US South.

We went to the Big Easy for a birthday party, so we had to take the party menu, which came with meat and seafood. Oh my god… it was soooo good. The pork ribs with barbeque sauce were delicious… I am not an specialist.. I haven’t eaten that many pork ribs in my life…. But so far they are the nicest ones I ever tried.
The huge grilled shrimps were even better!
There was tones and tones of food and all of it was nice and really well cooked.
Live music was really nice. They played Beatles, Simon & Garfunkel, Eels and all these classic groups.
I have a negative remarks although. The restaurant is far too noisy. It was impossible to communicate among each other… The restaurant is too small and not well set up for holding live music in there (even though, I really liked the group)
The staff was really nice too. So in overall I had a great night !

Don't waste your money go somewhere else. Popped in for a quick bite order got mixed up so had to wait a while. Waiter nice enough running around doing his when it arrived large portions but devoid of flavour. So unmemorable have forgotten what we ordered. But the place was busy so can only think that the locals must have more money than sense and numb tastebuds.

Fun, Loads of Energy, Great for the family. I have two terrible nephews - they get into trouble at every turn. I needed somewhere where my sister approved the food and somewhere where these kids wouldn't be such a handful. The staff were great, the food tasty - My Kobe Burger was the best I have ever had and the rest of the family chowed down on Cheese burgers , except my sister who loved her Lobster. The drinks were good the music great and above all the kids were good. I really rate it!

Complete waste of money. My partner and I paid almost £40 for 2 cheeseburgers, some garlic bread and some cokes. The burgers were below average (with cheese they cost over £11 each) and the chips weren't even finishable. I don't care if it is on King's Road - they have no right to charge that kind of money for that kind of food. AVOID.

It was Excellent!
