Wow... for a sports bar, this was a great and cheap restaurant dinner option on a Saturday evening. All the other restaurants in the area had a 45-minute wait for a table, so we ended up at Big Rig by chance. We were seated right away; waitress was very attentive and quick. She refilled pop without even asking and was familiar with the menu. They had some gluten free options on the menu, and we ended up ordering a gluten free pizza which tasted amazing. The entire outing with tip only cost 50 for 2 people. I'll be back again.

My 8 year old daughter and I were on the hunt for a nice restaurant close to the movie theater in the area. Big Rig is literally straight across. We spotted this establishment and thought we'd give it a try for the first time. Upon entering, we were immediately greeted and the staff made us feel very welcomed. Our server (ALEXANE) was absolutely extraordinary and wonderful. My daughter had the poutine and I had the bacon cheeseburger platter. They were phenomenal. Generous portions and prices are quite fair. Service and experience overall was impeccable and first class. We are definitely coming back, spreading the word, bringing more family and friends and we highly recommend. BIG RIG ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My spouse and I always enjoy our meals at the Big Rig restaurant. Meals are plentiful (too much so for seniors), service was great (as always) and not too loud, and not too quiet. Thanks.

Fish n chips were cooked perfectly. Fries were great. Nachos looked like they were dropped and scooped up, many chips with no toppings. Service was good for having mostly 1 person taking our large groups orders, so it was delayed quite a bit. But the server held it together with some additional help.

Burgers anf fries were amazing. Deep fried curds were excellent. Service was great and our daughter even got a free dessert for her birthday, which was also great....cookies and cream pie. We will definitely be going back!

Our family of 5 (2 adults and 3 kids) returned to Big Rig for dinner. As always the food was delicious, fresh, and filling! No complaints.

The dish I got (mac & cheese) was really good, but I have you say it was too small to get full off of. For 17, they really should give larger portions. In any case, our server was very friendly and checked up on us frequently. I guess it also helped that it wasn't too busy when I ate there for dinner.

Our group of guys visited the restaurant on a Wednesday night so it wasn't too busy. Very spacious and clean location, lots of parking and easy access from many main roads. The staff was really friendly and provided an amazing service. The food and beers were quite good and ready fast so we didn't have to wait a long time. The only exception were the peanut butter torte that were average but nothing to put a downer on our experience. Thank you, well be back.
