Customer Reviews
Steak was thick and tender, but it had no flavor. I noticed a lot of older people inside the restaurant when I picked up my food, so maybe they cater their seasoning towards their taste palette.

The baked potato was hot and fluffy with butter and sour cream, and the three onion rings were big, crispy, and delicious. Even with just water to drink, the whole meal came together beautifully. Service was fast, friendly, and attentive from start to finish. The staff made sure we had everything we needed. The atmosphere was clean, cozy, and family-friendly — bus

Beyond the food, the atmosphere was wonderful. The environment was noticeably clean, and the staff was so incredibly welcoming. They offered truly great customer service and genuine hospitality. The highlight of the evening was the unexpected bonus of meeting up with old friends and acquaintances. We had a great time conversing, and the restaurant provided the perfect, comf
I had the steak at Big Apple Restaurant and it was absolutely perfect. Tender, flavorful, and cooked exactly how I asked. The service was fast and friendly, and the whole place has a welcoming vibe. Definitely one of the best meals I’ve had in a while. Highly recommend!
