Big Bear Sushi & Thai — Restaurant in Jefferson Township

I’ve been ordering Big Bear online for the past year now, but this was my first time stepping foot into the restaurant. I had the joy of bringing my family from out of town, so my hopes were high.

And we were not disappointed!! We were greeted by our hostess/server which the warmest smile, and immediately seated. Smaller restaurant, but beautiful large windows and very nice decor.

The service was quick and very pleasant. Our waitress was the only front of house staff, and she did a great job checking on us and ensuring we had plenty to drink. She even brought extra bowls so we could all share soup, and timed a to-go order I was bringing back home perfectly with our bill.

The food? Spectacular. We’ve been knowing this, but eating it in restaurant was a whole different experience. The presentation of our Spicy Roll and Summer Roll were jaw dropping, and the displayed sauces paired perfectly with our choices. Cannot recommend the Summer Roll enough!! I ordered the Panang curry for my entree - which is a little on the sweeter side but I prefer it that way - with melt-in-your-mouth bites of chicken and the perfect amount of spice. Everything on the table was so delicious, with everything being very well seasoned and our fish clearly being high quality. Cannot recommend this...

A great Asian fusion addition to Avondale/Old Irving neighborhood. We got takeout and enjoyed the food so much we sat down for a bite two weeks later. If a restaurant serves curry I use that as my metric for the quality of the food. This restaurant passed that test with flying colors.

The Thai panang curry needles were flavorful and filling. They do not skimp on the chicken and there was a decent amount of red peppers. So good. Their sushi selection is huge. The quality of the fish is so much better than most "fusion" sushi places in the area. You could tell there was effort put into ensuring these rolls were good. Don't sleep on Hawaiian rolls! The streamed buns were ok but lacked the same level of quality companies to everything else.

The interior is fairly generic but cozy enough. The staff was friendly and attentive. They had no issue waiting till we were ready to order. They were also happy to take feedback as to how we enjoyed our food. I didn't mind the baos but my wife didn't care for them. They were happy to pass that onto the chef.

This establishment is a welcomed boon on the Avondale/Irving neighborhood. They provide a quality meal in a nice clean environment. Give...

I recently visited Big Bear Sushi & Thai, and it was such a memorable experience! 🌟 From the moment I walked in, I could feel the warm and lively atmosphere. Watching the chefs work in the open kitchen 👨‍🍳 was a nice touch, adding to the excitement.

I tried a few sushi rolls 🍣, and each one was so fresh and beautifully made – the flavors were amazing. Then I went for one of their Thai dishes 🍜, which was packed with the perfect balance of spice 🌶️ and warmth. You could really taste the quality of the ingredients in every bite.

The staff made me feel welcome 🤗 and were so attentive, ensuring everything was just right. It’s not easy to find a place that nails both Japanese and Thai cuisine, but Big Bear Sushi & Thai does it perfectly. I’ll definitely be...
