Big Boy Tavern - Las Vegas, Nevada

Loved it here! Definitely coming back! Came here one night with a friend and absolutely had a very fun time. The atmosphere is lovely and the server (who's name I have to figure out again, I lost the card she gave me 😭) she was so great, recommended us a great drink and was super accommodating for what we was asking. Food was definitely amazing, had the Super Big Boy and the Chili. 10/10 👏🏽 can't wait to try other items next time I come back.

The food was fantastic, pretty close to how my husband remembers them as a kid. The service was really slow to start, we waited several minutes for menus while she talked to patrons at the bar. The bathrooms looked like gas station bathrooms, most of the tables and booths were dirty and the condiments on the table were filthy. We will try the restaurant at Indian Springs next time, we would not go back to this location.

If you read most of the reviews for this location the big complaint is that you can’t brings the kids here. Which I fully understand, how ever this isn’t Bobs Big Boy, it’s Big Boy Tavern, so take that as you will.

The Food here is great, Chili Spaghetti was on point, takes me back to Friday night car shows in Burbank at that Bobs Big Boys. Milkshakes on point. Wife got the patty melt was great. Our server was attentive and checked on us often.

Depending when you come it may be quiet, or some people are yelling at the game on TV. Cool atmosphere with a large outside seating area. If you live in Vegas and miss Bobs Big Boy food, now you don’t have to drive all the way to Indian Springs or Corona CA.

It's a nice enough restaurant, but if you were hoping for EITHER a "Bob's Big Boy" or a "tavern" you'll likely be disappointed.

First the GOOD: The place is clean and the staff was very friendly and fast. Didn't have to wait to be seated, have our order taken or receive a refill. Both my wife's burger and my patty-melt tasted good and were cooked properly. Oh and those fries? The fries were GREAT! Not at all greasy, crunchy outside and fluffy inside.

Things they could improve: The beer. It's got "tavern" right in the name, but they only have FOUR draft beers and those are low-end "light" beers like Bud, Coors and Ultra (but still cost $6). C'mon, it's Vegas, there are multiple breweries in this city, cranking-out an array of amazing brews. Or, go with something regional/national.

Secondly, the menu. It's not really the "Big Boy" menu any of us grew-up with. I guess that's OK, for a generic restaurant. Like I said, they DID a good job with our two meals, but it's not "Big Boy." No Ruben's, no cheese-steaks. Didn't see any of those famous pies or desserts.

You cannot beat the service here. Everyone seems friendly and seems happy to be working here. There is a reason they are the go to spot on an average night in Skye Canyon.

Great happy hour, good food, cheap beer! Will be back soon.

Lots of appetizers for $5

Beer on draft is $2 all day. They also switch one of the taps up with a local beer every few weeks.

If you are a fan of Bob's Big you need to check this place out. Had the Big Boy with the Hot fudge cake. Burger was good and the fries are just like Rallies. Everything was good. Worth a go if in Vegas.

Wow, a real Bob's Big Boy in the valley! Great burgers! We got a Big Boy and the Best Cheeseburger on the Planet. Both had great meat, and both were served hot and fresh with battered french fries. The two meat patties are a combined 5.3 ounces on the BB, and a 5.3 oz. single patty is on the BCotP. That's nearly 1/3 pound! My Big Boy tasted just like I remembered decades ago! The fries were crispy and delicious. Outdoor seating is available. Real silverware was served with our meals. The manager came by to check on us, which was nice. Good service. A bar and small casino are inside. Wide paper straws were served with our drinks.

Small building, but nice on the inside. I came here with my family back when it first opened and got a fantastic Sesame Ginger Grilled Salmon & he recreated the SW Jack from the Indian Springs Flagship Location [see my separate review], cooked by the wonderful Chef Zach. Its a shame I heard he quit the company, and since then the business has turned away from its “family themed style”, becoming a 21 and over establishment. I have also witnessed the lack of staff and a loss/decline in servers. Such a shame. Big Boy was a staple of “family dining”, and way to leave it to Vegas to make it a bar and casino.
