"The food was ok. The service was bad. It was a Mother's Day buffet. No one told us. We sat at the table waiting. When drinks were offered, none of the specials were told to us. And then, they billed us a mandatory 18% gratuity for a party of 3. A really disappointing Mother's Day brunch. We won't go back."

"Very disappointed. Even the burgers were poor and it's hard to mess up a simple burger.
Good for beer selection, but limited hard liquor.
Good atmosphere for watching a game, but I wouldn't go back just for that."

"Our favorite restaurant and bar. Food is always good, from burgers to salmon on a plank to prime rib. Cozy fireplace in dining area nice for dates, and bar area good for sports fans.
Atmosphere is casual, yet service and menu is upscale. Never had a bad meal or a bad server. Staff always friendly and attentive. They also have banquet facilities and patio."

"Outstanding! Rockwood has become fairly busy over the past few months we have gone, but never had to wait for a table. The Bar if very large and open with plenty of flat panels for sporting events. The booths are very comfortable and spacious, and there is plenty of open space so you don't feel overcrowded. This has been our 6th time going and have not been disappointed on the food. Presentation is great and the appetizers are large. I am a huge fan of the Full Slab of BBQ ribs now, which they have a deal on Thursdays for 15.99 for full slab. The wife fancies the Pot Roast, which comes either on a sandwich or full dinner. Plenty of Beers on tap for all sorts of beer snobs out there, which I am one. Sign up on their MVP club. Enjoy!"

"This is one of our favorite restaurants. The food is always good and fresh. Never had a bad meal here or bad service. The owner is always there and it shows. Best burgers in town and they are huge. We tend to get a late start to go out due to work and home so it is nice they are open very late for dinner."
