“ I've now been to all three Big Boys. First, Frisch's in Lexington Kentucky when I was at the University of Kentucky, the Country Clib of the South. Then, when I lived in Los Angeles the first time, I'd go to Bob's Big Boy on Wilshire. And now my Life is Complete with a visit to Michigan Big Boy in Romulus near the Detroit Airport. I tried the three different sliders, all delicious, and the beef patties were cooked perfectly. Thicker than I thought they'd be and juicy. They are very filling as an entree by themselves with a side of fries. The salad bar looked great, but I didn't have it. I was there about 9pm, the service was great, and they also had a small gift shop with sports jerseys and other items. Earlier in the day, I did a 4 mile walk and snagged my pic with the iconic Big Boy out front. ”
“ I went to this big boys early in the morning after a layover overnight in Detroit. The location is close to the hotel and near a few hotels that are close by the airport. The service was great. The waitress was friendly, normal but the food was really great and authentic. I absolutely love their biscuits so much. I asked the waitress to give the cook a 5 tip. Thank you. ”
“ Great food and even better service. The food came out fast and hot. Everyone was so friendly and happy to serve us! ”
“ As far as decor, etc...it is what it is, but they claim to sell the “Best Cheeseburger on the Planet” and...it’s in the conversation! Whoever made my burger last night has to love burgers because it was perfect. Well dressed, juicy, flavorful. ”
“ We went for the 'all you can eat' breakfast and it was so good! We thoroughly enjoyed the claw machines at the front door. We also got a slice of their delicious fresh strawberry pie to go! If you haven't, you have to try a slice! So yummy! ”
“ Omg the beef vegetable barley soup is amazing!!! The Patty melt is also great! My son and grandson love the big boy burgers and fries! I do wish they had hard boiled eggs and cottage cheese for the salad bar though! ”
“ Everything was very good. I had fish and chips. Customer service was great as well. The older guy on the cash register is very nice. I will definitely return while I'm here in Michigan. ”
“ Came from Chicago, passing through. It has that diner feel. It’s not a 5 star restaurant, but it definitely hits the spot. Quick service, fresh pies. Only bad thing was the dirty bathrooms. They don’t seem to clean them at all ”
