    It started off perfect. It was a special Christmas dinner with our niece and nephew from MI which we look forward to every year. ( Two days before Christmas.). The atmosphere was cheery and cozy. The fireplace was roaring and the jazz band and singer were entertaining. The wine, appetizers and main meal were delicious. This is where the wheels went off. We waited for our desserts (preordered from a prefix menu) and were waiting for approximately 20 minutes before our waitress came back to ask us if we had gotten desserts. When we said “no,” she disappeared for another 15 and came back to apologize that the kitchen was very backed up but they would be out soon. Another 10-15 minutes went by and we went looking for her and explained that it had been 45 minutes and we’d like them taken off the bill. She said she would speak to the manager. She came back and dropped our bill off with no greeting or explanation. We saw that we were comped $9/dessert and closed our tab out. She never came back to the table and the manager never bothered to check in with us or apologize either. Although the food and atmosphere were excellent, we left with a bad taste in our mouth.

    We were so excited when the Roadhouse Cafe reopened with new owners. They have done an outstanding job of keeping the quality of dining and service on the same level. Food choices were excellent. Preparation was perfect. Service was outstanding. We purposely chose to visit an evening that they have a jazz group performance. Outstanding! A wonderful evening.

    Our first time back after reopening. I rated the food entrees 3 stars because two of the four meals the mashed potatoes were lukewarm and the two swordfish entrees were a bit dry to the taste, potentially overcooked. My scallop dish was wonderful. Just an aside on knowing the menu options, the waitress didn’t seem to know that baked potatoes were an option on the menu but we pointed it out to her. Otherwise we enjoyed our experience there and think that these things can be attributed to the newness of the staff and kitchen crew. The parking lot situation was a horror show when we came out after dinner. Hope that gets cleared up also.

    It’s still new, so probably unfair to pass along an opinion. The food was good, as was the service. There was a problem with one of the orders, though management acknowledged that the problem was theirs, and did the right thing on the order. The prices dictate that ultimate success mandates an extremely low tolerance for mistakes like this. Having said all that, we are returning with the whole family next week, so we really want this new iteration to be really successful
