The daughter of hip-hop legend The Notorious B.I.G. is deliciously honoring her father’s legacy. Entrepreneur and fashion designer T’yanna Wallace has officially opened a new steakhouse restaurant in Brooklyn and hosted a private tasting for reviews, paying tribute to the late rap icon while creating a new cultural hotspot in the borough he called home.
The restaurant, called Big Poppa’s, takes inspiration from Biggie’s larger-than-life personality, love for good food, and the unmistakable swagger that defined his music and legacy. Located in Brooklyn, the upscale dining spot blends luxury steakhouse dining with hip-hop culture, offering guests premium cuts of steak, seafood dishes, craft cocktails, and an atmosphere that celebrates Biggie’s impact on music and culture.
For Wallace, the venture is deeply personal. As the daughter of —born Christopher Wallace—she has long worked to preserve and honor her father’s legacy since his tragic death in 1997.
The steakhouse’s name is a clear nod to one of Biggie’s most beloved hits, which chronicled his rise from the streets of Brooklyn to global hip-hop superstardom. The restaurant’s design reportedly features artwork, memorabilia, and subtle tributes to the legendary rapper throughout the space.
Wallace has already made a name for herself as an entrepreneur. She previously launched the fashion brand, which celebrates her father’s legacy through streetwear and lifestyle apparel.
Fans of the late rapper have welcomed the tribute, praising Wallace for continuing to expand the cultural footprint of one of hip-hop’s most influential figures.
More than two decades after his passing, the influence of his remains is undeniable. From music and fashion to fine dining, his legacy continues to inspire new generations.
With Big Poppa’s, T’yanna Wallace hopes visitors will not only enjoy a memorable meal but also feel the spirit of Brooklyn and the enduring legacy of her legendary father.
