The Big Cheese of Miami

"I have been coming here for many years and I just visited this place recently. It is a great local restaurant located in South Miami. Parking can be difficult, but there is parking available in the back. My girlfriend and I split a steak Cesar salad and they bought it to us in two separate plates. They provided us with a lot of food with a lot of flavor. Their garlic rolls are amazing and always great service. They constantly check up on us and always filling our drink’s. This place never changes; always great food and good service. I always look forward to coming here."

"I get here about once or twice a year, but they never disappoint! Great pizza, great wings, great service! Very good prices! and Josh was great!"

"The Big Cheese has been around for the longest I can remember. They’re huge sponsor is University of Miami and it has a very friendly vibe to the spot. It’s one of the first places you think of when you want something homey. I had ordered over the phone, expecting it to be ready in the time they allotted for me, and it wasn’t. The person in the front even charged the card incorrectly and they had to re do. I understand… mistakes happen and we’re human, but I was really hoping to grab and go. Since the parking wasn’t any better. I then took everything to the car— grateful I could carry everything in one try to the car. To then realize someone parked behind me and there was no one in the car to ask them to move. I was already on a time crunch with my supervisor because the getting ready of the food had taken a while. Also, they had attended other guests while I was waiting and picking up the phone… I understand the staff might be low, and lunch time is extremely busy, but it would not be a bad idea to hire an intern or someone for two hours a day to help those scenarios. Finally got out, had lots of anxiety, got to work, food was great! That was a plus. Very tastey!"

"-Flies buzzing around the place, disgusting, place is not clean. -Look at the pictures of the flies stacked up less than 5ft from where they prepare pizza... -If I could give a zero I would, they don't deserve a star. Ordered for pickup, they say ready in 20, Arrived 31 minutes after phoning in, they forgot to make one of the two pizza pies I order the rest of my order is getting cold, finally walk out 47 minutes after calling in the order I shouldn't have eaten the food but did, hopefully I don't get sick. The Garlic rolls had 0 garlic on them, and were burned on the bottom. Both pizza were a floppy mess, see photos. I felt awful for my Mom who got the Cauliflower crust pizza, absolute sloppy mess, see photos, she ended up throwing it in the trash."

"I love the restaurant. I didn’t wait to be seated. The service was excellent. Staff polite and kind. The garlic bread is so delicious, but leave space because the dishes are huge. I ordered the eggplant parmigiana and for my date cheese pizza. The pizza wasn’t served at the same time as my plate. That’s a no no. Thank God we shared my eggplant and spaghetti. The tomato sauce was tasty, but at the beginning I felt it was too much. But no, the combination between the sauce, eggplant and their spaghetti really good. The past is Perfect, Al dente. The restaurant has a lot of options of American-Italian food in the menu. I’m definitely coming back."
