Big Star

December 16th, 2011 · 5 Comments

I tried to go to Big Star once when it first opened and basically we walked in looked around and walked out. The place was packed and we didn’t feel like waiting for a table. What a scene! Dallas kept reminding me that they do have a window where you can just walk up and order tacos to go, but I was never around there at the right time. Meanwhile, he’d go late at night and bring tacos home to eat while I was sleeping in bed! And all I’d get in the morning was a stupid chicken lollipop.

Since it’s been open for a couple years now, it’s not quite so crazy. Jess and I went once over the summer and got tacos at the window and ate them at their picnic tables before the Mr. Skin party. Another time I went when Sara got laid off (sad face). She had about 20 friends there that night and we were able to get two booths next to each other without much problem or wait.

And? To be honest, I think I enjoy the tacos at our taqueria better, but Big Star definitely has a better atmosphere. I guess that’s what you’re paying for there. That and to be seen!

Also, I’ve never been to Big Star and need to change that soon!
