I went to Big Pink in South Beach last weekend after an afternoon of bar hopping with some friends and have to report on the experience. Overall, the dining stop moved it off of my places to revisit, but no regrets.
Let's first start with the menu. We sat at the bar and it took us a while to get menu's but when we did they were overwhelming. See the pic embedded. Can I assume this is why it's called "Big" Pink? ...Ginormous.
I took some time to even order beverages, even though we sat right at the bar. To their credit, they were busy. We finally ordered and asked for everything all at once, beers, and entrees. Some time later we got our food: steak quesadilla's, meatball hero, and soup & salad.
My meatball sub was the only item near normal. The steak quesadilla's were pretty much overcooked and had nothing on them but steak and cheese. Where's the guac? Shockingly the salad was warm. 2nd time this month for us at a different place. Strange. Why is a salad left under a heat lamp? Is there some new process in the food service industry?
Our bartender/waiter was nice enough to get the soup/salad taken off the bill, but the only thing we really walked away happy with was a book of matches. (slick logo)
