Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Rock 'n Chair shines in Avalon with its "great food, drinks and service" and is a "go-to place" for many. While some found the menu and renovations lacking, the "delicious" lobster rolls and "great halibut meal" are crowd-pleasers. The lively atmosphere, including Friday night Quizzo, adds to the charm.

    The table was stained and sticky. Appetizers were good but main courses were mediocre at best. There wasn’t a lot of flavor at all. Lobster bisque was a disappointment. My mom’s food did not come out with the e rest of ours- 99% sure they forgot to make it. No apology or anything.

    Our waitress Rainer was very nice and we enjoyed her service. But the food was average. Our burgers showed up without lettuce, tomatoes and onions which are noted on the menu. It was a rainy day and we could take our time since the place was really empty but I wouldn’t go back again.

    Excellent service in a Holiday weekend is not an easy feat with a packed bar and full restaurant seating. The food is consistently good, try their Patron Mango Margarita, and naked hot wings. Make reservations during the season.

    We do not like the recent interior renovations of the Rockin Chair. Before there were several quiet parts of the place where one could hold conversations without shouting. Now it is too loud and noisy. My burger, ordered medium, was well done, and the roll was crumbly. Overpriced. We wish for a more varied menu, or al least several specials.
