Big Ed's City Market Restaurant

Big Ed's came as a recommendation from a local friend, who suggested for my breakfast order to get the steak with hot cakes, but I subbed for French Toast. The aesthetic is rustic antique and felt cozy. Jack was my server, and he was great. My food came out quickly. I enjoyed my food but my only gripes were that the biscuit tasted flour-y and the steak was very salty, but when I ate it with eggs, it helped mute the seasonings a bit. Overall, I'm very pleased. I'll definitely be back!

We came in after seeing great reviews and getting a confirmation from a ride share driver. We sat quickly, were greeted in a timely manner, and the food we ordered arrived quickly. The small issue we had was resolved, and our meal was taken care of. We would recommend coming in for friendly service and home style cooking!

My meal was every bit as amazing as it looks. A BONA fide Southern breakfast experience. The atmosphere and ambiance are also top shelf with a ceiling chock full of curiosities and antiques. The service was lightning fast and brimmed with that quintessential "Southern hospitality." The chicken fried chicken was perfectly crispy on the outside, while being fall apart tender on the inside. The biscuits were like clouds over Savanah on a summer day. Close to the best breakfast experience I've ever had.
