Horrible service I ordered a Paloma and the bartender never told me what kind of tequila I wanted when he brought the drink over I asked what kind of tequila it was and he said cazadores I told him I would like casa amigos instead and he said I have to pay for two drinks when I didn’t even drink the first one he said even though I didn’t drink it he would have to pay out of pocket for it as a bartender myself you just remake the drink and add the upgrade new to this town and left a sour taste if your looking for a good experience go to skinny bar down the way !

First time here on a busy Saturday night after a wine walk event. The restaurant was welcoming and seating was quick on the patio with our party of four. Overall 3.5 rating from us. Definitely try again. Just room for improvement on rice quality, beans, and hope table side guacamole available next time. The server promptly asked us for our drink order. Also, chips and salsa delivered to the table shortly after we were seated. We got four waters, two beers, and one margarita before the food and it was quick. For dinner, we had Tony's Burrito 3.5-4 rating; Swordfish Tacos 3 rating; Trout 4 rating; and a veggie dish 4.5. The food came out very fast. We all enjoyed our meals. Friendly service. Cute place. Lovely outdoor patio. Reasonable prices. $112 for 4 excluding tip. Brought enough food home for another meal.

I had the cheese enchiladas and I had two other people with me. Wasn't good and it wasn't worth the price. Won't be going there again.

The service was good. The food and micheladas are awful. We only paid the bill to be nice. The “carne asada” is not that, the ground beef has absolutely no seasoning, and the shrimp tacos had 3-4 tiny shrimp. The rice is not Mexican rice it is was steamed white rice with cilantro or something, the beans were flavorless. The salsa was good.

The food was fresh and delicious. The ambiance and decor was great, lots of big windows and natural light, though it would've been nice to hear Mexican music in a Mexican resto, not 90s alternative, lol. Service was super friendly and fast, and able to easily recommend and adjust meals for a vegan in our group.

Big T's is a great Mexican restaurant in the heart of downtown Boulder City and my wife and I love how it's more of a really fun bar that also happens to serve really good food too, than anything. 'T' or Tony and his daughter are long time residents of this charming town and they've done an amazing job of making this a great local hang out complete with live music on Thursday's, karaoke on Friday and Saturday after 8pm and still feel warm and inviting to out of town visitors. As you would guess, they do serve delicious margaritas but they do also have a full bar complete with beers on tap, a good selection of wine and for me personally, an even better top shelf lined with really find bourbons, ryes and other whiskeys. In fact, on our most recent visit, our bartender recommended a new one to me, RD One and it was amazing! As far as food goes, their chips are true, restaurant style freshly made and not out of the bag type and their salsa is super tasty especially if you like it hot and spicy! We always enjoy their Asada Tots and BYO quesadillas to get started and more times than not, that's about where we end being that we're typically full up by then. But, we have had their carne asada burrito and enchiladas in the past and both were awesome. Granted, none of the food is 'authentic taqueria style' Mexican if that's what you prefer but in a way, that's what I like about it. All of it is fresh and made with a flare of it's own and for me personally, it's something I enjoy. While here, you should take note of the murals on the walls and other artwork as they were all painted by the very talented daughter. Whether you're just passing through on your way to see Hoover Dam or a new resident of Boulder City, I would highly recommend you give Big T's a try - CHEERS!Parking: All parking is on the street and while there are a few spots right in front of the restaurant, you may find yourself walking a bit on weekend evening.

This place is great! Stopped by after a day trip to the hover dam and it hit the spot! Service was great! Drinks were amazing! Good chips and good salsa. Salsa has a nice little kick to it. The cucumber jalapeño margarita was super refreshing. Highly recommend! Food was great too! Came out super fast and it was delicious! They have plenty of indoor and outdoor seating.
