    The salmon and our prime rib were both terrible / low grade and very disappointing. Love the beer, service, staff, atmosphere but i would not recommend eating their entrees at all.

    Food was okay. Not a real big choice on the menu. Entree was decent, fries were cold, did not eat. Service was terrible, inattentive, lazy, uninterested in our experience. Was there years ago and really enjoyed it. I will not return because of the poor service. Wish it was better.

    The ribeye steak sandwich was very small and not served hot. We sat at table 13 I believe and it has a busing station behind it. The noise was ridiculous and annoying. The waitress was above average. It’s a shame the meal wasn’t . Probably won’t return.

    We had 7:15p reservations so I was surprised it took so long for our meal to arrive. Our server was good, but overall everything else was average. They must've been understaffed. The regular bar tender was not there so that explained the long wait for drinks, but not sure why it took so long for dinner to arrive to table, plus it was just so so warm. Maybe an off night.

    We enjoyed sitting outside by the fire. Service and food were great, we were able to take our time and didn’t feel rushed. The ratatouille pasta and fish tacos were excellent as well as the brussel sprout and fried cauliflower appetizers. My husband said the blackened chicken sandwich was good but thought the seasoning a bit too salty. Crème brûlée cheesecake is amazing.

    Very unique place. I enjoy the look and feel of this old Roundhouse, where they brought trains inside and turned them around so they could go out, facing the other way that they’ve converted into a wonderful restaurant. My only criticism is it’s very very noisy with all the old floors and the new tile floors, the sound bounces around and echoes through the place but we’ve been there twice now and the service has been great. The food has been better than good and it’s a pleasant experience.

    Upon arrival, we were seated near children that were unaccompanied and very loud and disruptive. I had asked the server if I could sample the sangria, and it was a hard no very quick, very adamant very flat. I went on to order a Mojito without realizing it was a canned cocktail and then could not believe it was a $10 can. The food was brought out and there was no salt or pepper or any condiments on the table. I waited for the server to get off his phone to check on us and that was the only time he checked on us. The food was mediocre overpriced and I would probably compare it to a step above IHOP. Very disappointed and definitely will not return for a meal at the Roundhouse.

    Two Brothers RoundhouseResponded on October 3, 2023

    Rhonda, Thank you for your honest feedback and we do apologize. Unfortunately, the sangria is made to order so there is really no way to sample that product and yes, we offer a mojito that is Logoed Two Brothers in a can and its on our menu. It's actually $2 cheaper from the hand crafted cocktail we can serve. Your other points are valid and we are talking corrective action to solve the issues Thx Jim GM

    The food was great but the service wasn’t as good as usual. When we filled out the reservation, they asked if we were celebrating any event…and we put in our wedding anniversary. Nothing was done about that, and they put us in a corner booth by the kitchen, no mention about the anniversary. The server didn’t bring us water until about 25 minutes later when I asked. Food quality was very good though, just not great service (which we have had in the past).

    Food was deliciously prepared - a minor mix up on the order& seemed low like in a cup of soup instead of a bowl - also had pesty little flies trying to land on our food but over all it’s definitely worth checking out - wanted dining outside but a wedding was in progress but they had ample room to accommodate & let others dine outside after 10 minutes of us being there, had they mentioned that we would have gladly waited

    Great food as usual. Plentiful & reasonable. Excellent server. 2 negatives: super loud noises made when clearing tables are enough to jolt you out of your seat! We were seated at tables which were not cleaned too well—sticky. And no place settings—had to ask server for silverware when salads arrived.
