   Clearly understaffed. We actually walked out after waiting 20 minutes to be greeted by the server.

   The environment was phenomenal, the unfortunate part of the service was no working air conditioning and poor wait staff service. Food and drinks were wonderful. Will go again, hopefully with better climate ☺️

   First steak was over cooked but they fixed it quickly. Table was uneven and rocked, air conditioner was not working so it was quite warm, and it was a bit noisy. Otherwise it was a decent place. I would go back.

   Ambiance and decor are lovely. The food was just okay especially for the price. Everything needed a little more flavor. I would go back just for the venue and hopefully the food will be better next time.

   The buffet on Mother's Day was very good. There were many selections to choose from including one table that just had desserts. Those desserts were wonderful and so fresh. One long table had the warm foods with metal covers to keep them warm. WE would suggest putting labels near the metal covers to tell your customers what each container had. Other than that, it was very good.

   Absolutely love this new restaurant and the entire development of this space with theatre, game room, bar and restaurant. Joseph and the staff were super friendly and made it very comfortable. We were there for Mother’s Day brunch. Probably not the best way to visit for the first time. Food was overall good, not great, except the appetizer and desert tables. They were top notch and fresh. Look forward to trying JL’s again and eat from the menu.

   Went for Mother's day brunch buffet. The food offered was good. Not all items advertised were available, my husband was especially disappointed that the advertised omelet station wasn't available - this would have impacted our decision to dine here this day. There wasn't clear communication, when it was time to pay the bill we were very surprised that the drinks were not included since there was no pricing given upfront and the drink station was set up buffet style. This was also a disappointment and would we likely won't go back since we greatly dislike places that are not upfront with pricing. There was pretty great disorganization with the flow of things, confusion among the staff, and they weren't completely set up at our 11am reservation. My husband got a bloody mary that didn't even have vodka in it due to the disorganization of the drink area, yet we were charged for an alcoholic beverage as that's what the pay attendant saw on the table. They have some sort of issue with the payment software that was frustrating. The building and the restaurant area are really cool and have a great vibe. I hope this restaurant can pull things together to thrive for other diners. JL Caspers is likely a one and done for us unless we find out there is new management.

    I went to this restaurant looking forward to their steaks and they were out of all of their meat including chicken and only had fish. This was not told to us until after appetizers were served and so we ordered Caesar salads which were completely dry and voided from our check. I haven’t been to such a poorly managed restaurant in a while. Worst dining experience I have ever had. This is the first time I have been compelled to write a Yelp review.

    Here’s the thing. We had a reservation for 745, we show up a 735, had to wait 5 minutes before the hostess shoes up. She ask us to go to the bar until the table is ready. No problem, we go have a drink at the bar and chill, we’re almost done with our drinks and the hostess tells us our table is ready. Now we can see the whole place while at the bar and that table was empty. No problem we take a seat , we still have our drinks from the bar. She pours us some water, apologizing for the wait and says your server will be with you shortly. We finish our drinks and for 20 minutes every server the had walked by us without saying a word. So we left..

    With the understanding the this was their opening foray into the Sunday brunch melange, their not having our two menu choices was but a minor speed bump. After the owner took us on a personal tour of the entire facility, we had a wonderful brunch meal. This is truly an eclectic, unique facility that effectively bridges the gap between entertainment and exceptional dining options. Enjoy a piadina while bowling a string? Sure. How about a Nashville hot chicken sandwich after finishing the front 9? Absolutely! If you can’t find the perfect meal, the tastiest beverage (I think each beer wall has good 30 choices), or be entertained by the live music, the amazing decor, or the truly amazing view from the rooftop bar, you’re in the wrong city.

    This was our first time trying ROAR. It has an energetic, fun vibe to it that even these 60 year olds enjoyed. Our table was comfortably spaced from others and our waiter was great - friendly and knowledgeable. I had crab cakes, another had salmon, and another had filet. All were good - not outstanding, roll your eyes in joy - but good.

    Bowling was ok but the food was expensive and my medium ribeye steak was charcoal black. It was absolutely nasty. The manager took the steak off of our bill but I left very hungry and dissatisfied. My husband’s salmon was mediocre. We will probably go back to bowl but not for dinner at the restaurant.

    Had the Filet and Fried Lobster. Filet was not a very quality cut of beef, Fried Lobster was a mess, fried in the shell with a sauce that wasn’t very good, but you couchette into the shell of the lobster!! It was breaded and deep fried. By the time it finally got into it it was fried so much the lobster meat was mush. Had Mushrooms and broccoli also. Did care for the ginger in the mushrooms. Broccoli was delicious, had a lemon zest and juice. Very good. Wife had the filet tips, very poor quality beef. Had more grisly pieces than beef. Never seen filet with gristle. She loved the mashed potatoes and the sauce. Meal was $135 plus 30 dollar tip. I expect a whole lot more for $165. May go back but it will be awhile. Our server was very good though.

    To begin no children s menus or any effort to accommodate for a child. Atmosphere was very dull and restaurant was empty. Food was ok but not worth the money. Cocktails were nice and desert was mediocre at best. Did enjoy the downstairs food hall and bowling was a hit.

    Only because I can't leave zero stars. It started off bad when we asked what kind for beer they had on tap and the server suggested we go and read the self-serve options on the beer wall. Ultimately, it didn't get better from there. In fact, we didn't even eat, after waiting almost 2 hours to be served (there were literally fewer than 10 other tables in the whole restaurant), the food was ice cold and virtually inedible. We left it sitting on the table and went across the street to Camel City Barbeque. 1970's hits were playing on the radio (loudly). When we suggested that perhaps some jazz would be more appropriate, the manager said they had to play whatever was playing downstairs in the restaurant upstairs. On the TVs, the Hallmark channel was playing. Of all the options in the whole internet universe, why? Why why why? It was so distracting. It would have been better to turn the TV's off. This was one of the top 10 worst restaurant experiences in my whole life. The dueling pianos downstairs were perhaps just as bad if not worse. We ended up having a lovely rest of the evening with our $10 barbecue across the street and drinks at Earls. Obviously, we won't be back.

    Roar is a Great addition to Downtown, awesome energetic atmosphere, super friendly staff, however it took 35 minutes to get our drinks, and a while to bwt our food. with very few people at the Bar and very few people at tables. My wife wanted her steak cooked medium they cooked it the way they wanted to, stating they couldn't cook it any other way. They offered to comp her dessert, but we didn't trust the time it would take to get it. Paid the bill and left. Might give one of the other restaurants at Roar at chance, but will wait until they work out the kinks.

    Drink took 30 minutes, was informed it was on the house and then was charged with it anyways. Food was good but overpriced. A bit too loud for my taste. The prohibition theme is nice but then they also have 6+ TVs around the restaurant for no reason that kind of ruin the ambiance. It’s a new restaurant so I imagine it will improve with time.

    There were only 7-8 tables in the whole restaurant and our food took forever to arrive as well as drinks. Our waitress was awesome and very friendly but it was lack of staff that made her get her 10k steps in that night. She was overwhelmed and even running behind the bar to make our drinks. What was really bad was when we asked them if they were understaffed the gentleman working there looked over at their general manager as he was having a glass of wine with customers and said it would be nice if he would actually help. Food was a million percent not on par with the price. For two of us with one app and a few drinks our bill came to over $250. There was a $52 delivery fee on the check which turned out to be auto gratuity. For that check average you expect service like Flemmings or Ruths Chris. If they don't get more staff in there they are in trouble.

    Arrived for table that was booked for 18:45, was seated at bar until 19:00. Found it very loud, restaurant needs more pieces of furniture and or walls to block out the bowling/golf side and for sound reasons. Food was tasty, maybe a little over seasoned, but that would be my only critique. Waitress was lovely, no issues there. For only opening overall experience wasn’t too bad, just issues a few issues to iron out over time. We will definitely be back.

    First, it’s more of a sports bar than a prohibition style restaurant. There were at least 6 TVs around our table alone. It’s extremely loud as it’s an open space with concrete floor and the virtual golf area is directly across the hall. We were given the wrong drinks and our salad took about 20 minutes to come out after it was ordered and our steaks were 15-20 minutes after that. It seemed as though Management and the host were running food but had not idea where the table numbers were as they were constantly running down the wait staff and being pointed to the right tables. The Steak was decent but had to send one steak back as it was rare and not medium but it was quickly fixed. The sides are really good though. Garlic mashed potatoes and asparagus are highly recommended. During our time we watched at least 2 tables walk out as there was only two servers and a lot of tables filing quickly (not their fault as they did the best they could). $48-65 plates is kinda steep though

    Our experience was incredible. From the hostess, servers and manager. The salad was amazing, my steak was perfect, our salmon was so flavorful. The gluten free cake was the perfect ending. We will be back very soon! We’re so lucky to something so great with such a different atmosphere! Also the bowling before our reservation made it the perfect night out!

    Well, I drove out of town to come here during Valentine's day with my partner, and it was like a Bob's Burger episode, but not in a good way. We were shuffled over to the bar as there was not seating despite the many open tables- where we stayed for 30 minutes as we get skipped over. There is live music-not in the background as normal, but physically manifesting itself in the ears and resonating through the whole body. The musical artist was a Frank Sinatra impersonator who knew one way of singing--LOUD. We finally get sat after 45 minutes but we don't get a menu for another 30, as we listen to the tables around us scoff at the service. We finally get a menu an hour after our arrival, just to find out everything on the menu was 70$ or higher, for micro portions. The ambiance was basically institutional factory at best. So the ambiance sucked, the service was overwhelmed, the prices were astronomical, the portions were microscopic, and ultimately I don't even know if the food is good, because we left upon receiving the insulting menu. I'm sure they've had better nights, but my experience was a fever dream.

    We had a good experience at JL Caspers. We were there on their first night open, so a little chaotic. However, the manager stepped up and took charge. The food was wonderful and we enjoyed the atmosphere of the place. I would definately recommend, and we will be back soon.
