“ Service was kind and willing to wait for my indecisive friend. I had the veggie Greek Trio and it was delicious, not to mention they had a very large selection of vegetarian options! The ambience of the entire place was nice as well. ”
“ Ok, So once and A while we screw up and miss a Great Restaurant . So it is with BIG TOMMY'S PARTHENON on GrandRiver in Novi. We almost missed it and had to turn around. Best illegal turn I made this week. For lunch I tried the Lamb that was stewed in a delicious greek flavored tomato sauce. I chose the sides of rice pilaf and green beans. The wife tried Chicken Gyro grilled wrapped in a fresh pita . It includes onion , tomatoe if so choose and TZATZIKI SAUCE on the side. Excellent service by Reneé who I might add took the time to answer all of our questions about their other mouth watering dishes. A Greek town right in Novi! Who knew? They are as good as Pegasus, better than Hellas and simply outstanding Nice refreshing decor outside. Us two are just getting warmed up and will be back to try their Sunday Brunch, comedy Castle specials not to mention their dinner entrees! Owners Elena and husband ?? Deserve your visit. ”
“ This is a fantastic family run restaurant. They have a wide range of fantastic food like authentic homemade Greek dishes and much much more! The staff is very friendly and they are fast. The restaurant is fairly large with modern flare. I 100% recommend Big Tommy's! ”
“ Why haven't I been here in a long time??? We went as a group of 10 people last Friday and everything was delicious. The portions are HUGE, prices reasonable, service fast and friendly, and they were kind enough to do separate checks! We will be back regularly moving forward! ”
“ We came for my mother in laws birthday last night, she was craving lamb shank and this place had some wonderful reviews. I made a reservation online through their website and was pleasantly surprised to see that our table was actually ready for us when we arrived. I'm so used to call ahead where you still have to wait when you get there. The lamb shank was divine and exactly what the birthday girl wanted. My daughter and I shared the chicken Alfredo, which was delicious, my husband ordered the chicken kabob, and my father in law had chicken lemon rice soup. The atmosphere is cozy, and while it is casual it is somewhat dressy (think nice pants and shirt). All in all it was a great meal. ”
“ The food was pretty good but the best part of my experience eating at this place was the amazing server Dino. He's a young gentleman and deserves a raise. Thank you big Tommy's for hiring such great young men. Very good looking as well!! And dino you rock!!!! ”
“ I thoroughly enjoyed this place. Nice ambiance, service was excellent. I had the lemon rice soup, lemony and creamy very delicious, and the Tommy salad with chicken it was delicious, it was basically a Greek salad chopped up and mixed with the dressing, very fresh and the dill was a nice touch, chicken was good but a bit dry. I got the half size and that was big. Pita bread was warm and soft, tasted great. My table also had gyro, chicken gyro, Mediterranean bowl, and French fries... all were liked and enjoyed. Everyone at the table said, this place was a good pick! I can't wait to go back and try the lamb. The service was very good, very knowledgeable of many dishes, she had many suggestions. She said one thing that I loved, "were family owned and the only frozen food we have is the French fries (which were delish) and chicken strips." I thought that was great! Definitely will be back. ”
