Day bartender was fantastic (John) for lunch. Visiting the area before moving here and love NOLA. Very well stocked bar and good background music. Excellent environment! Plan to bring a friend that shares my NOLA love when I move here .

I was SO surprised by Big Easy Bar this weekend. I saw on Instagram that they have Lost Creek oysters so I went to their menu and saw they slow roast them flash fry their wings and use a dry rub, so I decided to give this place a shot. My husband and I popped in on Saturday and had oysters and the wings. The rub was fantastic and honestly, these are tied with Hattricks for our favorite wings in town. The bartenders were all great. The cocktail menu is great as well. We will definitely be back soon for more wings!!

A friend and I were in Ybor on a whim and needed a brunch spot that served unlimited mimosas and I feel we struck gold. The food was good and we left drunk. Got the best out of what we needed. Would love to come back for brunch again that’s for sure!

Nice classic long bar with lots of exposed brickwork adding to a enjoyable and relaxing ambiance. Nice mix of local beers to choose from and service was excellent.

This is not your typical bar food, big easy is serving up some delicious food. Very clean restaurant, service was exceptional! Everything I had was amazing. The French toast and beignets were the best I’ve ever had. Very affordable restaurant, would definitely recommend.

Excellent food and vibes. I wish there were more New Orleans type food on the menu. The wings mixed with buffalo and cajun were spectacular. Red beans and rice delicious.

From the moment you step inside, you'll be greeted with a vibrant atmosphere that sets the stage for an incredible dining experience. The food is simply outstanding, with a menu that showcases the flavors and spices of New Orleans cuisine. Whether you're craving gumbo, jambalaya, or a delicious po' boy sandwich, they've got you covered. The dishes are bursting with authentic flavors that will transport you straight to the heart of Louisiana. And let's not forget about the service - it's truly exceptional. The staff goes above and beyond to make sure every customer feels welcomed and taken care of. Their attention to detail and friendly demeanor create a warm and inviting atmosphere. So, if you're in the mood for some mouthwatering Cajun and Creole dishes, The Big Easy is the place to be! Trust me, you won't be disappointed!

Ybor is noisy on a friday night we all know that. Among all the noise stands big easy. It was calm and collection on a night when the music was blasting from everywhere else on to the street. We liked that part. I liked the cocktails we ordered very well made. If you want a place where you can just enjoy a drink and have conversation with your other i suggest to start at this place and see where the night takes you.
