Big Tom’s Backyard Grill & Bar

We stopped in to Big Tom's Backyard Grill & Bar about an hour before closing on a Tuesday night. We were impressed with how clean and well-kept the restaurant was as soon as we walked in. The owner (Tom) and wait staff were very friendly and patient with us, as we had the usual long-day/first visit indecision going on. The small house salads were incredible! They were served on dinner plate sized soup plates and it has been a long time since I have had a salad so appetizingly presented. My wife and I agreed that they tasted just as good as they looked. Nice and fresh with a good mix of greens. I had the catfish basket while my wife and son both had the sirloin steak. James had his with a loaded baked potato made with pulled pork, and Brenda opted for the roasted vegetables. The steaks were perfectly medium-rare as orderd, the pulled pork was great, the vegetables were roasted to perfection, and the house-made barbeque sauce is incredible! We will definitely be going back, often. B...

Great atmosphere! Live music, cold beer, friendly staff and owner, and amazing food. We got the hot BBQ naked wings and the ribs. They were amazing. We will be back for sure. Kenzi was our server and was amazing. She never let our drinks get empty and was very friendly. We will be back very soon!

We really enjoyed our experience at Big Tom’s! Kenzie was our server, and she kept the cold beer coming! The wings and ribs are the BOMB! Highly recommend this place. This was our first time here, and we will definitely be back! One of the best bar/restaurants in Cleveland.
