★★★★☆ 4.0 L Jovanovich · Jan 2026

First time here. I ordered the seared scallops and subbed the potatoes for bucatini. I could tell on another visit it would probably be great but I didn't love it tonight. It was undercooked (less than al dente) and no sauce to speak of. I had to ask for butter and lemon to kind of make my own sauce to eat it. I ordered it based on a picture I saw of the same thing and it was flooded with sauce, I'm sure it was amazing that time. It was a good idea, the flavor was there, the sauce wasn't. My friend ordered the Steak Dianne. It was wonderful, tender, and lots of flavor. She also ordered the tomato bruschetta canapes. The flavor was fantastic, and the presentation was beautiful, the only thing that would have made it better if they had put the toppings in a bowl in the center instead of dire

The name is simple, but the flavors here are not! I got French and my partner got Italian and we were both very pleased. The setting is rather plain, but the "old school" crooner music in the background adds to the atmosphere. Really a delicious meal. We will definitely be back.

Hubby sent me down from Chesapeake to house hunt and as bestie & I roamed all downeast we found hunger pains setting in. A quick search and we found, and almost passed, Big Belly. Bestie was like, where is it? I said that little building with all the cars! Luckily, we wandered in right before Saturday rush and found a 4 top table (be forewarned, it's small in there so get in early!) and settled in to scour the menu as Juan brought us drinks. I don't normally order steak sandwiches dining out but theirs looked and sounded delectable, so that is what I ordered. And I was NOT disappointed. The steak was thinly sliced, marinated in something so unlike any other steak sandwich I'd ever have. The white sauce was the perfect topper and the French bread was the perfect vessel. Because my steak san

I just had the best lunch at Big Belly Deli in Washington, NC, and I had to share! The French Philly Dip was out of this world, loaded with juicy sirloin steak, caramelized onions, roasted red peppers, and grilled mushrooms, all piled on delicious French bread with a side of au jus. The portion was huge, so I split it with my wife, and we both loved every bite. The kettle chips on the side were a perfect touch too! This place used to be a food trailer, but now it’s in a cozy building, and the family-owned vibe still shines through with their awesome gourmet sandwiches. Definitely worth a visit if you’re nearby, takeout was a breeze!
