Expectations surpassed

My family of six adults and a toddler made a reservation on the evening of the total eclipse: Aug. 21. We were seated on time and Cathy was our server. Each of us ordered something different. Each of our meals was perfectly prepared and delicious....More

Cold fries and poor service

We ate here on a busy night. Ordered just burgers and fries. The fries were cold and rubbery, and I had trouble locating a waitress to get condiments. No-one checked on us til the food was finished. I would not come back..

Off the grill salad!

Local favorite for food or drinks. The Off the Grill salads are a great option. choose the salad, choose the grilled meat or salmon. Big sodas, good cocktails. Staff is friendly. Good size portions and rolls are terrific.

Crowded and busy

This usually means a great restaurant. We visited as a family and enjoyed decent cocktails. Our server was distracted and the place was pretty noisy. The food was good, but I prefer a more cozy atmosphere.

Lots of spice, not so nice --

When we visited Best Little Roadhouse, we found the prices high, the food good, but average (and spicy, although we asked first and was told it was not). Staff was either way overboard in being present, or you couldn't find them when you needed them....More

Great Food, Bit Pricey

I love the options, my husband always gets the ribs and I love to try something new every time. Ribs are so good and so many choices of sauce! Buffalo wings are my ultimate favorite appetizer there. Never played but mini golf on site seems...More

Family Fare

The title says it. This is an iconic example of what we enjoyed so much a few decades ago. Good food that satisfies you and service that makes you smile. Well worth the extra mile you drive to find it.

Great place for a good steak dinner.

Steaks are good, but burgers and salads are also available and good. Service is fairly quick and servers are friendly. Outside is their putt putt golf course. Birthday parties are always welcome.

4.5 stars -- I would definitely go back.

A sign of a good restaurant is when locals eat there in droves, and Best Little Roadhouse was packed even early on a Sunday evening (5!) It's huge, the atmosphere is terrific. We ate on the outdoor patio (enclosed) and definitely liked the patio more...More

Loved The Food!

Great place for BBQ. The hot rolls and honey butter were delicious. I had the pulled pork sandwich with cheese and coleslaw on top. It was very good. The garlic mashed potatoes with bacon, cheese and butter were fabulous and could have been a meal...More
