First time visiting Big Whiskey. So I didn't get the servers' or owners' names. But we sat at the bar, and our server was knowledgeable about their drink offerings . The food was excellent, and you could smell and taste the smokey flavor in the meats, which is rare these days. I will definitely return.

The owner greeted me and also made me a really good old fashioned. I ordered a ribeye which I was not expecting to be so huge, and it came out perfectly medium rare just the way I asked. I loved the sweet potato fries, but will definitely be back to try more of the menu. Thanks for the great service!

This place is unbelievable. If you’re a whiskey connoisseur, whiskey lover, or are interested in whiskey, this is THE ONLY PLACE IN VIRGINIA TO GO.The atmosphere is fantastic, the food is top-notch, and the whiskey selection is SECOND TO NONE. Hands down the best whiskey selection I’ve found on the East Coast.The service is fantastic, and I’m counting the minutes until I can go back.

We sat down the guy was rude and didn't tell us anything. Then when we decided to go elsewhere he said something under his breath. Very unprofessional.

Absolutely worst service I have experienced in a very long time. There was only 15 people in the place when we arrived. We were able to order some drinks. A $20 old fashion that you can only order with house K.O. Bourbon. What kind of whiskey bar doesn’t allow you to order a different type of bourbon? Unfortunately that was not the bad part. The waiter, Trevor was rude, slow, and aggressive. He couldn’t take more than one drink order at a time. It took over 75 minutes to get an appetizer, and the excuse was only one chef in the kitchen. After waiting all that time he finally decided he could take our meal orders. I explained that he should have taken our order earlier if the kitchen was going to be so slow. He stated he couldn’t beat the chef into submission. And I replied that had nothing to do with taking our order 75 minutes after we sat down. He then put his hands up and said let me stop you. That ended our patience and we asked for the check and left. The bill was over $106 for the one appetizer we got (we ordered two), 3 old fashions, one drink and a beer. The appetizer was very tasty and I will share that the food has high reviews from family that have eaten there in the past. I highly recommend management review their process and staffing. There should not be a single chef and if so there should be a warning when people sit. Trevor should be required to take some customer service classes and learn how to listen and not interrupt. I can say I rarely write reviews but this time I couldn’t help myself. Avoid this location at all costs!

best food I've ever tasted! try the grits and brisket!
We had a fabulous, creative meal last night, along with oh-so-wonderful whiskey. Love this place, and the owner goes out of his way to make your experience a great one.

I lived this place. The barbecue was excellent and they really know their bourbon. They have a huge selection. And prices are reasonable. I tried 3 bourbons that I’ve never been able to find: Weller Antique 107, Old Forester Single Barrel Barrel Strength, and John J Bowman Single Barrel. If you’re getting discouraged hunting bourbon, go here and you can actually taste what you’ve been missing and eat some good food while you’re at it.

Hours have this location listed as opening at 12:30. Stopped by at 2:30 and they were definitely closed.

We had the most wonderful time here on a rare kid-free staycation. Mac took great care of us. He picked the perfect drinks according to our (amateur) tastes. We had lovely conversations with him. We shared the flourless chocolate dessert, which even my sweets-averse husband loved. We are excited this exists to close to us and can’t wait to come back for a full dinner!Dietary restrictions: So thrilled that I can have so many gluten-free options here!
