Big Tom's Backyard Grill - Cleveland

This restaurant is a hidden gem off the main road. The wait staff is outstanding and you might even be lucky enough to hear Big Tom singing a Johnny Cash song with the live entertainment. The food is amazing and the portions are generous.

I had heard that this restaurant had undergone a dramatic transformation a few years ago, so I decided to try it out for the first time. I ordered the Philly sandwich with spicy potato salad. The sandwich was hot and delicious, filled with meat, peppers, onions, and just the perfect amount of Dukes mayo. The potato salad had a nice kick to it with red pepper and jalapeño. Logan provided excellent service. I will definitely be returning and recommend that you do too!

This was my third visit to this restaurant and it finally lived up to my expectations. They had a special burger on the menu called the Smash Burger, which is now one of my top 5 favorite burgers of all time. I was truly impressed. It was priced at $15, which is average, but definitely worth it. The side of fried okra was generous and delicious. The service was decent, the server seemed to be new and still learning. Overall, we will definitely be returning again in the future.

Great place. Great atmosphere. Great food. Large portions good prices and friendly staff.our server Paula was amazing Love it here ???? ???? ??

We got to Big Tom's relatively early for dinner and were seated right away. We hadn't been seated for more than a couple of minutes before a very pleasant server showed up to take our drink orders. The menu was bigger than we had expected, but not sobig as to be overwhelming. I ordered the poutine with the fried green tomato side and my husband ordered the burger. We've hadfried green tomatoes many times over the years from many different places. These were hands down the best we've ever had. Theyweren't bitter and were cooked perfectly. The batter was great and the sauce that came with them was great. I'd never hadpoutine before, but after reading several of the other reviews that mentioned it I had to try it. It was fantastic, the brisketends were lovely, cooked perfectly and whatever the sauce is that makes it poutine was really good. The sauce itself wasfantastic, it had just the right amount of savor. I'd suggest getting it with the steak fries instead of the crinkle ones, butit's going to be delicious with either. My husband's burger came out cooked perfectly. He'd asked to have an egg added and noonions the order came out correctly. We could see other diners from our booth and we didn't see any delays between when aparty was seated and when they were served. The place is clean, tidy and had a comfortable atmosphere. We will definitely begoing back.
