What’s up with the “big boy” lingo? I’m from the Midwest originally but I’d never seen it used until I moved to LA.

Your comment perplexed me enough that now I have to ask.

It's a chain restaurant that was founded in Glendale, CA and is headquartered in Warren, MI.

Most of them are gone now.

I must be confused because I see various places all with Big Boy in their name. I probably need to simply search the web for more information.

If you like the Big Mac, give it a shot. Even if it doesn't have the iconic Big Boy mascot out front, you'll probably at least see the checkers.

It's just a classic diner style brand of good old American food.
