The Big Cheese’s first location was opened in 1984. We rented a small building across the street from our current location. We began with two people, 12 seats and take out.
By 1990, we had 26 employees and 28 seats and began offering take out as well as delivery. In 1991, we moved across the street to our present location, which had 120 seats inside as well as 30 on the patio. We then expanded our menu from only traditional Italian items to new and tasty sautéed items. We also have a great appetizer menu.
In 1991, we also began to deliver party platters. We continued to expand our menu in an effort to have "Something For Everyone" including chicken fingers, french fries, fried oysters and kids’ meals.
