"The bar area is huge, so you should have no trouble getting a seat to catch a game on one of the many big screen tvs. Our drinks were appropriately prepared. However, our main dish, a hamburger, tasted moldy. We sent it back and decided on desert instead. The apple pie and ice cream were good. The spinich and artichoke dip appitizer was also good. The noise level was really loud so talking with your table mates was next to impossible."

"My family went for Easter brunch. As always, the food was very good. The organization of the brunch left a lot to be desired, and food was not refilled as quickly as it could have been."

"Always have a great experience at Rockwood.
Decided to try their brunch and was NOT dissapointed.
The food was different from their regular menu. breakfast items and other selections.
Everything was hot, full of flavor, prepared and displayed in a first class manner.
My compliments to the Chef. he(she)? must really know their stuff.
The food is ALWAYS GREAT at this restaurant no matter what I have ordered.
I have already made Mothers Day reservations for brunch.
Great Job Rockwood, keep it up!"

"We stopped by here when many restaurants were packed for Turnabout weekend, and found it through open table. They had healthy choices and a great menu selection. They accomodated a table of 8 and the prices were excellent for the quality of the dishes. It is sports-bar like with a classy atmosphere. I would like to go back there soon."

"I would have given the food five stars, but for the horribly overpriced and somewhat ridiculous dinner salad and the fact that they wouldn't give us a kids portion of ribs. The salad was a mini mound of iceberg lettuce with a few shaved carrots on top for $4.95, and the "balsamic vinagrette" they recommended was a bottle of balsamic vinegar. That said, my cedar plank salmon was amazing and cooked to perfection (rare was what I asked for). My husband's ribs were great too, and my son's turkey burger had to be one of the most moist turkey burgers I have ever tasted."
