I love this place! Is really cool down stairs. If you want to have dinner child you can be upstairs, but if you want more music and a bit of dance, you go down stairs!! The atmosphere is amazing, my Tequila Margarita was really nice. I also like the fact that you can eat there until late. Great experience! Thank you!
Overall a very good spot for a late night dinner. We rocked up at about 12:30am to get some food when everything else is closed. The food is great for the early hours of the morning and the vibe and service of the place is welcoming! Definitely a good spot to go if you want to have a late night date! Good cocktails as well!
Big Poppas has a very intimate vibe, the perfect place to try delicious food. Plus, the downstairs area is really cool with a DJ. Me and my friends loved the experience!
Had been here a few times previously but to the bar downstairs. Finally got to try the restaurant on Thursday night for 5 of us but we didn’t have a booking, however the host was kind enough to book us on the next available table at 9.15pm (45 min wait). The dinner was incredible. We ordered many items to share from charcuterie, pasta and mains. We had one vegetarian in the group so ordered some veg options which were also amazing. Finished the night with the cheese platter and some espresso martinis! Service was great even though it was a busy night. Food was so good, didn’t even have time to take photos!! Thanks again for a wonderful evening.
We went there mid April, we both like the food. The menu was small, but I much prefer a small menu of delicious fresh dishes to pages and pages of bad food. There was a blackboard with special features, but we only saw them after ordering them. After our waiter took off our place, we hoped he would return to ask us if we would like dessert, but this never happened. I'm unsure if there is no dessert, if they ran out of tiramisu, or if he forgot us. I have a sweet tooth, so we found a nice Italian ice cream place nearby. The atmosphere was good, I guess, just not sweet enough to have five stars.
