SquareMeal Review of The Big Smoke

Named after London, but serving up some thoroughly American plates, this grill in the heart of Leicester Square promises barbecued fare in epic proportions. The seriously meaty menu features double-dipped ribs with a selection of sauces ranging from smoky to super-hot (which comes with a disclaimer), steaks in a variety of cuts and sizes – from 8-ounce to a whopping 30-ounce rib-eye – and the unusual, but very popular 'tinburger'.

We’re not entirely sure why the burgers are served in tins, except perhaps to contain all the fillings, of which there are many.  The mac, cheese and bacon burger, for example, is a 12-ounce prime beef burger topped with macaroni and cheese, crispy bacon, house ‘slaw and more cheese, and encased in a brioche bun. It also comes with fries and Carolina sauce for dipping or pouring. Other items on the menu include large cooked breakfasts, nachos, seafood, and some monstrous freakshakes.

Very Cool place to eat.

I have never seen a burger as big! I had a chicken burger which came in a tin that you slide off leaving a huge stacked burger with layers of crispy fried chicken and coleslaw. We were sat on the terrace in Leicester Square and people were taking photos and commenting as they passed which was hysterical. My friend had a huge rack of ribs and we shared some onion rings. It was great fun and we moved inside when the live music started. Great night out.
