Our son invited us to Road House for Mother's Day. It doesn't accept reservations, so there was a long wait to seat six of us, and it was noisy, but it wasn't at the permanent-hearing-loss level, as it is in some restaurants in Seattle. In Salem, customers still expect to dine and simultaneously converse with family and friends witho

Chicken quesadillas are fantastic. Prime rib chilli not so much. Service is hit and miss. Great place for lunch.

It's ok, but really it is just a knock-off of the original road house grill with higher prices.

nicer than i thought when my boyfriend finally convinced me to have a dinner here. we had a great & friendly waitress who knew a bit of sign language. 4 stars if the burger i ordered was better. but, the rolls they serve is absolutely delicious! hot & served with some kind of sweet butter. (in my opinion, they should let the butter b

My husband and I wanted a good steak so we went to The Best Little Roadhouse My end cut of prime rib was just ok but my husband's center cut was really good! But the noise was just horrible! I could not talk to my husband with us yelling back and fourth and saying what was that the whole time! So to go for pretty good food but NOT a

The portions are very generous...so much so I end up taking it home for leftovers squared. The mini golf in the back is really fun. The strawberry lemonades with sugar rims are a birthday favorite whether your nine or 23. Don't judge.

My little sister is a fan of BBQ and I wanted to take here out to try this place since the reviews here looked good.We got seated right away and got fresh rolls then a side salad.I got a rack of ribs and the portions were very generous. My ribs were good and they were falling off the bone, but it didn't have enough flavor. I needed m

The happy hour food deals are the best I've found in Salem.  $3 for a 1/4-pound burger and fries, and another $2 for a drink.  Even after tipping, it's the best dinner deal in town.

Just what we needed tonight. Meg was craving a steak and we couldn't find a good steakhouse in Salem on yelp. Her Ribeye was well cooked and had good seasoning. I had the special of baby back ribs and tri tip steak. The steak was OK but the ribs were awesome. The salads were just cold romaine but it was just what I wanted tonight. We

After placing your order, they bring you fresh baked bread with a side of whipped honey butter. OMG I could get fat eating there!! We waited a reasonable time for our lunch, but the waiter, seeing we had devoured our 5 mini loafs, brought us another basket. Great service, great food, and a great place to catch the football game and s

The first really good burger I had in Salem. I have been back many times, but watch peak times or it is waiting line city. They ask you how you would like your burger cooked and actually serve it to you as ordered on a consistant basis. Good service.

NOISY!! Wow was it noisy in there!I got a gift certificate to this place for my birthday, so my husband and I went to check it out. The beer and the food were delicious, my prime rib was a little too salty but was cooked to tender perfection. I got the impression that our waitress had just been yelled at over something and she seemed

The Best Little Roadhouse is amazing!My favourite meal, the masher bites comes highly recommended, although they have sandwiches, burgers, steaks, ribs and salads. Their meat salads are such good value and uber delicious. The atmosphere is a lot of fun, sure it is busy and noisy, but that shows how well the waitresses (and waiters) d

This is a great place. The food is fantastic, but especially good are the rolls and honey butter! Simply sinful! The food comes in satisfying quantities, but it doesn't seem like an overwhelming amount like other BBQ places. This place offers so much more than just BBQ, too. The sandwiches are awesome, and I love the salads. They hav

Great daily drink specials. Perfect for groups. Staff is very accomodating and friendly. Food is great. Mini golf is alittle expensive. BONUS: not having to worry about slipping on peanut shells like the "other" Roadhouse.
