Unexpected surprise

Dec 2019 • friends

While I had family visiting at Christmas we decided to exchange gifts and have a drink together. We decided to stop in at Big Mics. What a wonderful surprise when you walk in from outside. It has been remodeled but still retains its unique architectural touches! Lovely mix of modern and rustic feel. The wait staff was so friendly and stopped by to see if we needed anything and was extremely sweet. I have only heard about how wonderful the food is so I will be back to sample some! It is a nice neighborhood gathering place to just enjoy the company and have a drink!

Wonderful lunch on a lazy, quiet Sunday afternoon. Very chill atmosphere, historic building. Keep in mind it's a saloon with a big bar, but the food is not to be missed. We were visiting family in the area so we will be back again to try more beers and more of their BBQUNA. Grilled shrimp were delicious, hubs had the massive smoked chicken sandwich on a bagel bun. A unique, independently owned restaurant with it cool vibe. Support locally owned restaurants!

Fricken Awesome!!

Sep 2020 • none

This is the only restaurant/bar that I've ever been to that gets even better every time. Yesterday 9.17 I met a friend there for a meal and he had a massive burger and I had the sampler plate (which is enough food for a fricken army) and both were fantastic. You can also tell that the people who work there even enjoy it as they go out of their way to keep everyone happy. 5 Stars for sure!!

This is what we work so hard for! In todays world and economy its even tougher to be in business people are so quick to rage on social media rather than voice thier issue while on premise. We got into this business to serve our community and because we offer BBQ not available any place the way we put extra effort into our bbq speaks loud. Its a 5 day process just to prep and smoke our proteins we bake our own bread and cookies. Our Burgers are fresh ground daily for that 1 of a kind juicy burger. Thank you so much for your well written review from all the Big Mic's team we thank you. Big Mike 9.30.22 8:38 am

Must Have Been An Off Day

Jul 2021 • none

Late afternoon lunch. Did not appear to be very busy. Order was taken relatively quick, but the wait for the food was 45+ minutes for a burger and brisket sandwich. The clear highlight was the brisket in the sandwich. If we go back, it will be ordered well in advance to pick up.

I am glad to report as of now our longest ticket times are 15 to 20 minutes. If you find your way back please ask for Big Mike and thank you for the review!

Good barbeque sandwiches in a casual setting

Feb 2024 • couples

We stopped in for a late lunch during a Sunday afternoon drive. Enjoyed the Meltdown and Pulled Pork sandwiches - both were generously portioned on great buns with tasty fries and homemade chips. Nice selection of draft beers and the bar looked well stocked. Service was casual and friendly. Located right on the main street. Customers ranged from families with kids to older couples and lots of in-betweens. Only objection was that menus had NO prices (our sandwiches were $14-17 each, and pint beers $6). Would definitely stop here again if we're in the area.

Out of food, fries cold and old, lots of flies!

Sep 2019 • couples

Went on the recommendation of a friend who had a whole different experience than us! Our waitress couldn’t answer questions about the food and was asking another customer (or he may have been a manager). We went at lunch and were told they were already out of ribs. How can you be out of ribs right after you open? We were the only ones there. Food came out and my pulled pork actually had decent flavor but my fries were over cooked and/or old. Waitress and manager, or whatever he was, spent most of their time on their cell phones and didn’t ask about how our meal was. Flies were everywhere! We spent our whole meal swatting them away! Will not be going back.

Hi Ari I first off would like to apologize we just claimed our page 01.21.2020 @ 3:16 pm there is so many social media platform for businesses to monitor we had overlooked this platform. I am truly sorry for your poor experience. I would like to address some of your concerns such as our Ribs if we run out we can not just make some more quick we sweat marinade our ribs after butchering for 48 hours and so we keep our product fresh we do run out on occasion.Our fries will never be old since we make 100 lbs a day and we hand cut them as well. I do apologize if they came to you cold it should not of happened if you were the first in at lunch time. Our potatoes are fresh Idaho russet potatoes that we process ,season ,smoke them cool down and hand cut both our fries and our tators. If they were over cooked we would of gladly replaced them you are always welcome to ask for how you want your fries done since some like them crispy and some people do not I will now have my servers ask our customers that question. The server problem I take complete responsibility for never should they have that kind of attitude and always should ask you how your food is if you can remember the date we would appreciate that information however I am pretty sure I know the server and they are no longer employed here. The Flies here seems to just be a Idaho seasonal issue and we have tried everything to eliminate them and continue to do our best to control them. I really want to make clear I am not making any excuses simply trying to pass on information on how thing's are prepared. Most of our reviews come thru face book and google business and if you look at them we are 4.5 to 5 stars. Ari we really do care about your visit here and take it extremely serious as we do with every customer that comes through our doors. I invite you back to try us again and if you so choose please ask for Big Mike and tell the server to find me so I can apologize in person to you.I thank you for taking your time to review us we take the less than positive reviews as serious as the good ones it makes us a better business place.

I was expecting more of a full menu than a bar menu

Aug 2019 • none

We ordered the pulled pork sandwich and the smoked brisket sandwich. They were both good, but was disappointed that the only thing offered for toppings was a sweet BBQ, mayo, mustard and ketchup. I was looking forward to trying a new slaw, but it wasn't on the menu. The only other items were variations of the same meats and hamburgers. This is MUCH more a bar than a restaurant... which was disappointing. The flies inside kept landing on us, which was VERY distracting. There was no bug zapper in flight, just an orange fly swatter hanging unused on a pole. Sandwiches were $12 - $15 (including sliced fried potatoes). We had two sandwiches, two beers and a margarita for $44. The chalk art on the blackboard walls were very good! Probably won't return.

Donna thank you for your review sorry for it taking so long to receive this reply we just claimed our page on this platform today. I am happy to report we do have a full menu now and our coleslaw is made fresh to order. Our Sandwiches in our BBQ is almost 50% larger than most bbq places that we know of I think you'll agree and alot of our customers will share a sandwich and ask to have it cut in half. We invite you back to see what has changed we also have shrimp and are ready to roll out Salads as well as Big BBQ salads with your choice of meat. We have added several appetizers,Taco's I will post pictures on here our menu if we can, keep in mind we are updating it in the coming weeks to add even more. Thank you so much for your review hope to see you back. Big Mike 01-21-2020 4:19 pm

Excellent BBQ

Nov 2018 • couples

The best local BBQ around, top 10 in the valley. The brisket sandwich and pulled pork sandwich is amazing. The Moscow Mule with lime vodka is a specialty.

Hi Carl, It is sad to say it has taken us this long to even know your review existed since we just claimed our Business page on here . So many review sites its exhausting. However we did want to answer every review good or less than good to show we really do care about each customer and the time they take to come to Big Mic's Saloon & BBQ and especially when they take the time to give us a review so thank you would love to here back from you.
