The attitude and attention to detail is spot on the the team who we’re working on Saturday evening are a credit to the restaurant. Our evening was once again made memorable by everyone.

    Me and my family attended Big Easy in Bluewater for my husbands 30th birthday meal, and it was one of the best meals and experiences that we all had. The staff were so friendly and chatty. The food was outstanding and worth your money with the size portions you get. Dessert menu was also yummy! Listening to live music was a lovely touch too. We will definitely be coming back with friends and family, overall experience 10/10
