Took a trip to Raleigh and found this restaurant online. The staff was very friendly and the food was really good. I didn't like how it was dim lited and the toilets wouldn't flush but everything else was nice.

Some friends and I came here for a quick brunch a week ago. We sat at the bar and had some drinks and food. I got the salmon cakes with macaroni and cheese and veggies while they had fried shrimp and wings. The atmosphere was welcoming, and the food was delicious overall. I would definitely revisit to try their other selections.

Very good fried oysters. Fries over-fried though not burnt. All meats are fried or blackened. No grilled or baked choices. Friendly service. Quaint setting. Reasonable prices.

Just wonderful! Yes, yes, and yes again. Great customer service, excellent food which caught me by surprise for a bar (first time having bar food) the ambiance of the atmosphere was amazing I went during lunch on a weekday and it was a nice flow of people all great vibes from the workers to the customers. Definitely try this place out if you like good food & drinks.

First time in NC was in town for Dreamville Music Festival. I kicked off my Friday night at the Big Easy. Found out about this place searching Google Maps. It was a long wait, so we walked around downtown to kill time. Fortunately for us we find out Friday is karaoke night. When seated I ordered the Grilled Baton Rouge Shrimp, the taste was good, but the shrimp was kind of small. The mule drink I ordered was excellent, almost ordered another one, but I went with the Hurricane. My entree was the Shrimp Po Boi with a side of sweet potato fries. The Po Boi was great, I was disappointed in the fries.

The food was great, the service was very friendly, just wish the drinks came out faster, but overall, it was an amazing experience
Any place that has seafood gumbo as an option on a brunch menu is superb! The food was 10/10, we didn’t have to wait long and it was served hot and fresh. I would highly recommend the seafood gumbo, a bowl of it will make you want to go home and lay down happily!! A good seafood gumbo is hard to come by and this place nailed it!!
Very disappointed. I typically doordash but decided to visit in person on a Tuesday. I waited at the door to be seated and wasn't, so I sat down. At the time there was no one seated at any of the high top tables. 3 staff members passed me multiple times before one finally gave in and asked if I'd been helped. Before I could say I didn't need a menu they turned away as two new customers came in. They were warmly greete, immediately seated and given a menu. Understandable, as the staff was headed in that direction to get me a menu. But then the staff got them both water and walked past my table again without acknowledging me. I'd already been there 12 mins. I left without ordering. It wasn't busy. They simply didn't want to serve me.

The Big Easy is a phenomenal restaurant in Raleigh. They have tons of great options on their menu. The fried seafood platter was delicious, and the catfish was definitely my favorite part. The chicken wings with the dry rub were marvelous as well. The waitresses were also very pleasant during my visit. The place is vibrant and lively, and I hope to come back whenever I am in town!
