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.

Ok,So once and A while we screw up and miss a Great Restaurant . So it is with BIG TOMMY'SPARTHENON 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 outstandingNice 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.

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.

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.

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!!!!

First time here in years. We used to go for lunch. It was just ok. Hubby liked the jambalaya but the green beans were over cooked. Our friend said his fish was fishy tasting and a small piece. Fish and chips were ok but the tartar sauce was not great. The old fashioned's were too sweet. Our waitress was great. We might go back and try something different but no sure.

Wonderful spot on Grand River between Novi and Wixom. Love the staff, in particular, Jillian, and Mandy with a Y. Food is good, and the services better. It's not Greektown, but if you're not in the mood to drive downtown, it's the next best thing!

I placed an online to go order with Big Tommy's. Their online order process works well. That was the best part of my experience.I showed up at the restaurant and was stopped from entering the building by a somewhat rude employee telling me they were closed. I told her that I was picking up a to go order. She said that wasn't possible because they were closed for a private event. After another go around of that discussion, she headed inside the restaurant (to check my story) as I told her that I had a receipt to prove that I had placed an order. She came back out, finally acknowledged my order and told me again they were closed. I asked about a refund. She told me that she couldn't issue the refund immediately, but would do it the next day. Are you kidding me? I left with no food, low hopes of getting a refund and no offer to fix a customer situation that I didn't create.It's pretty bad when you have an online ordering system, take orders and then fail to deliver on those orders. It was a complete waste of my time to place an order, drive to the restaurant and walk away with nothing. I take that back. I walked away with less than nothing because I left with a bogus credit card charge. That caused me to waste additional time talking to my credit card company about my options. Thanks Big Tommy's for the experience!I imagine if Big Tommy's closes for a private event, they have the ability to turn off their online ordering system and mention it on their website. Their website alerts you to their upcoming holiday specials, but can't tell you they are closed during what would otherwise be normal business hours. I have to wonder how many people visited the restaurant for a sit down meal, only to find out the restaurant was closed. Even if the online ordering system was disabled, how many people showed up during normal business hours and unexpectedly got turned away? I doubt that's common in the restaurant industry. For the record, I was told the private event was a memorial dinner. I feel bad for the people attending the event and their loss. However that situation doesn't excuse the restaurant's mistake of failing to mention the closure on their website, accepting a to go order and then failing to deliver on the order, failing to give an immediate refund and failing to see if there was anything that could be done for a first time (and likely last time) customer.I've never eaten at Big Tommy's so I can't review their food. All I can do is review their service.
