This Lower East Side bar and restaurant focuses on classic dishes, borrowing from the French, Italian and American repertoire. Grilled Rib Eye with a Barolo sauce, Spaghetti Bolognese and Roasted Striped Sea Bass all make on appearance on the cohesive menu.

All the other burgers are 100-percent ground sirloin. Big John aims to be a friendly neighborhood restaurant and bar with well- made food at a reasonable price.
