Wow, so I’ve been eyeing this place for like a year. I never get a chance because the lines are out the door around 10. So, today, my mom and I were on a mission. We got here precisely at 9 a.m., and boy, I was happy. We finally got a chance to enjoy this gem. It would be best if you experienced Ari
Food was A1. Server was polite, attentive and knowledgeable. I couldn’t have asked for a better breakfast on 11/12/23
We were in Raleigh for a work trip and had breakfast here, on a late Saturday morning, before going home. I was surprised that we were sat so quickly! Our server was so nice and quick to get us everything.
The decor is so adorable! I loved looking around at all the eclectic items.
These biscuits are
A wonderful breakfast with family, cozy, diner atmosphere!! The hostesses were so sweet, the sausage and grits were savory and yummy! My daughter's pancake looked 2 inches thick and was delicious she LOVED it! Our waitress, Karen, was so kind and had a great smile! We will definitely be back again t
Great food and generous portions. They have some of the freshest and most delicious biscuits in all of Raleigh.
Their sausage gravy is so tasty.
The inside of the restaurant is pretty cool and eclectic. There are a lot of signs and posters from "back in the day."
Be prepared to wait in line on a w
I’ve been eating Big Eds for years. There aren’t many places like this still around Raleigh. Try it for yourself, but I’m totally down for this food. Salmon patties, butterbeans and field peas. Oh yes!
My first time here with daughter who frequents here for lunches. Being Friday I had the fried haddock,green beans & slaw with corn bread. My meal was so delicious! The fish was awesome & the cornbread amazing. The best I've had in yrs. I will definitely be back. Thank you. The wait staff friendly &
First I have to say, the cornbread was great! It could almost be a meal by itself. The service was good, mom and pops place. The food was good also, and this is the largest reason why they don't have 5 stars. There were 2 of us, and one of our meals was very good while the other was under cooked, by
Fantastic southern style breakfast! We stopped in here for an early breakfast before the days adventures. I got to have some real southern treats - real country ham and cheese grits; my wife had the fried catfish and both were excellent. The service was extremely friendly and welcoming. I just wish
Hubby & I eat here most every time while in the area.A very family oriented eatery specializing in breakfast brunch & lunch. No eating - this time - seated to our table by a very friendly hostess. As always our food was hot fresh - delicious- no complaints- reasonably priced- a winner!!!
This place is like a country diner with a southern flair. The BBQ special was delicious. It included biscuits, corn bread, two sides , drink and dessert for under $12. The banana pudding was awesome with real meringue. The only tip is that there should be more sauces for the BBQ but it was delicio
Big Ed's Restaurant is a popular spot for a reason. The food is delicious, the service is excellent, and the atmosphere is inviting. I had the pleasure of dining at Big Ed's recently, and I was not disappointed.
My server, Chasity, was phenomenal. She was friendly, efficient, and attentive. She mad
Great country cooking place! You can get a variety of food from breakfast to brunch to dinner!! I love everything! You've got to try their hot cakes! My server Karen was amazing and was always there when I needed her. She was very great and her job and very funny!
Good southern home cooked food with a great staff to match. If you like bland food with your ability to add salt and pepper to taste, this is not the place for you. Everything is seasoned just like southern home cooking is supposed to. Great experience and will to frequent this location multiple tim
The food was very good and the menu has some of my favorite country dishes, so I'll be back. Of course on a Sunday near closing, staff is super busy, and our waitress was pretty good.
Also, for calibration I start everyone with 4 stars (that's doing your job), 5 is above and beyond (food, service,
Really enjoyed this place! It’s tough serving a large group so food came slow, but they did a good job. I’m giving Big Ed’s a 4.5 stars! Our waitress was pleasant and personable, she was always ready with refills and gave honest food selection opinions!
About the food: they use real eggs! The pancak
Big Ed's is good. It's generally packed with patrons , but the food comes out quick. The sides were not very hot, but the meats are good and fresh.
I have to admit, my fiancé and I were pleasantly surprised and we thoroughly enjoyed our experience here. The french toast, scrambled eggs, biscuits and home fries were delicious. The hot cakes are huge. My fiancé enjoyed one of those. Our server also went above and beyond. We will definitely be bac
