Basically at Big Rock you are paying for where your eating rather than the food. I took my wife (at the time girlfriend) there for our first really nice date. The wait staff was prompt and professional. They tended to us making sure that we had drinks and were satisfied. My wife and I both ordered steaks and if my memory serves me right, when you order a steak, that's pretty much all you get. Everything else has to be ordered seperatly. Our steaks were over $30 each, and were good, but not $30's good. I'm a steak guy and I have no problem paying that much for something that blows my mine, which this didn't. Don't get me wrong, the food was good, but not as good as the money makes it seem.

Terrible dining experience. I went to this restaurant for my 2nd year anniversary with my girl friend. The google.maps directions were confusing, and so I called the restaurant as we were within about 5 miles. The hostess told us to travel in the wrong direction, which we finally realized after about 15 minutes. We recalled the restaurant, and another host gave us more incorrect directions that delayed us for another 45 minutes. We finally arrived after calling a 3rd time and talking to the manager. Upon arriving at the restaurant, the valet parking worker was especially rude, and made me park on some side street as he was busy with other guests. He did not even offer his valet service, and snidely inquired whether or not we had "rezzies," which I assume meant reservations. The food was mediocre at best for the exorbitant prices, as the$30+ entrees did not even come with complementary salads. The inattentive staff took away the elegance of the dining experience I had hoped for. Overall, this was one of the worse dining experiences I have had, at a steep price. On the bright side, the building itself had a beautiful interior, but this did not make up for the wasted time and money.
