   Food was great. Seemed to maybe be understaffed for the night but the waitress was great and checked on us regularly.

   Recommended by a great friend and we had one of the best times ever. Very classy place in sugarland. We tried the Branzino fish and lobster pasta and it was delicious. Service was great and the wine was perfect. Had a great time! Highly recommend

   Made reservations here on a Saturday night for my boyfriend & I. Arrived on time to reservation, was seated immediately. Took about 30 mins for our drinks to come & we ordered the mozzarella sticks for an appetizer which then took another 45 mins to come out & they were a disappointment. Just 6 small sticks looks like they came straight from Walmart on a small plate with some spoiled lettuce underneath. We needed refills as we waited on our food which you guessed it, took another 30 mins. I ordered the Catfish Etouffee which was okay. The catfish was fried good & had a good taste, but the jambalaya rice that comes underneath it was extremely dry. No moisture. My boyfriend had the captains dinner which was a fried lobster tail along with fried shrimp. Good taste, just really small portions for such a big ticket. Nice ambiance, great music. Just mediocre food & slow service on weekends.

   The atmosphere is very nice, however the food is just ok and very overpriced. I don't mind paying for food that is well seasoned, the right portions and taste good. People will come back.

    Bar was out of many options but still up charged for drinks. Food was overly salted and inedible. Manager offered a remake of my dish but it had not arrived after a 20 minute wait. My husband was already finished with his meal so we left and I didn’t eat. That meal was removed from our bill. The one bright spot was Jesse, our waiter, who was kind and attentive but clearly overworked. We won’t return.

    The food here is the best around. I don’t know why they don’t open on Monday and Tuesday. We finally got to dine in at The Roof and it definitely lived up to the talk everyone says about the restaurant. It is a must to try this place food and ambience is superb. Highly recommend

    The food really wasn’t worth the price. They smother the Brussels sprouts in pancake syrup. I got a T-bone that was 50% fat and as thin as paper.

    Ike (aka Pookie) the server was personable and attentive. The Catfish Etouffee was fantastic. The Shaved Brussel Sprouts were too sweet with a similar glaze to the Bourbon Glazed Pork Chops. This proved to distract from the chops which were very good. Overall, we enjoyed ourselves on our first visit to The Roof.

    The food was amazing! One of the best meals I’ve ever eaten. The lamb, pork chops, fried lobster and asparagus were all on point! We will definitely be back. Even if they don’t serve any type of bread with the meal. The reason for not giving it an overall 5 star is that it was only my wife and I dining but yet they snuck in a 20% gratuity to the check! I made the mistake of not reviewing the total and simply paid it. The problem with that however, is that I gave our waitress a 30% cash tip as well! I didn’t review the bill until I reached home and that bugged me. The service was good but sneaking in that gratuity doesn’t sit well with me.

    It was VERY smoky and the music was very loud. Our server got the order incorrect I would assume that was due to the noise level of the music. The server argued about the mistake on the order versus taking accountability. The entree for one person came out with the appetizer which makes for an awkward dinner. There are no small plates to share the appetizer. Our second appetizer came out after all entrees had been been served which isn’t the proper order of delivery. They automatically add gratuity, even with a party of 3, which is probably why the service of the server isn’t so great. The food wasn’t spectacular by any stretch of the word. Wouldn’t recommend and will not return

    This place could really be amazing with a little consultation. It has a lot of potential. Needs a makeover. The furniture and tablecloths are old. Tables too tight. I couldn’t find a way out from the back because it was so tight. Food was very good but overpriced. I could definitely find a newer nicer restaurant for the price point. Drinks seem alcohol free. I wouldn’t advise ordering anything but water. I also thought mandatory gratuity was outlawed but I guess not. I won’t be back until they remodel.

    Atmosphere was very nice. Food was great and give you alot for your money. Waitress was good, however I think could have been better if she was not attending to alot of tables at one time. Overall, I originally heard their food was over priced. This was my first time going. Well, their prices for food are actually fair. I bought a drink which was $12. I just don't agree with adding gratuity automatically on the bill to a party of 3. We paid $36 extra which was insane for gratuity.......

    Service was extremely slow , had to ask different staff about when our food was going to come out. Once the we received our food, it was hot and fresh. We were a party of 2 and was charge gratuity and was not offered any accommodations for our hour long wait.

    Service was very poor... The food was very good but expensive. The ambiance was nice but many of the lights had bulbs blown out... Took away for the feel of the place. No heaters outside, so we couldn't sit on the patio. That would have been nice.

    To start the ambiance is absolutely beautiful and the scenery by the lake is a nice touch… I brought a friend here for his birthday and it was a really nice touch. I order a round of sidecars to start off …. They were really good shoutout to CeeCee the bartender(her picture skills and cocktail skills are bomb thank you girl) …… we got our seat when he arrived and he ordered the spinach dip which was just ok hints the one start away from five ….. It definitely could’ve used some flavor hr ordered the lamp chops which he said were very good and we ended with the cocktail with tequila and champagne it was delicious…… I waitress was fantastic and the live Music was a plus that man played his heart out and everybody enjoyed it ….. Don’t forget to take some pictures on the patio

    This is a very nice place with great food and ambience. It’s interesting after looking at some great reviews and some negative ones about cost of the food. I’m sure the same customers don’t write a bad review or complain when they go to spend their last check on maestro’s or steak 48 the Roof Restaurant prices are alot lower than those other places . Sad… I highly recommend this beautiful place with great food.

    The service was not awful, but not particularly great either. To start, we sat at the table for over 10 minutes before anyone came to the table to greet us & take drink orders. The food was very bland to the point where we requested first basic table salt & pepper, then requested seasoning salt. Upon request, the salt & pepper arrived to the table in little packets & ketchup arrived in plastic containers. This was more appropriate in a takeout setting. Overall, the hostess was very friendly, the waiter was adequate. However, I was disappointed in the service & the taste of the food. To make matters worse, the restaurant added a 20% automatic gratuity to our check despite only being a party of 2. According to their menu, parties less than 6 are charged a 15% automatic gratuity. As an aside, I feel this policy is extremely tacky and should be communicated to the guest from the beginning. As 1st time diners, it was a very unpleasant surprise at the end of a disappointing meal. Then to be overcharged was the nail in the coffin. We had to call the restaurant when we went home & discovered the discrepancy. (They did correct it, but the damage was done. ) We dine out as a couple quite often & have never run into this issue. Unfortunately, the food quality, service, & gratuity policy do not match the ambiance. The location is beautiful, but we will not be returning.
