Fanciest place I've ever eaten at . That being said the staff was extremely polite and professional. Delicious food that came out in a timely manner. Honestly one of the best steaks I've ever had. And the live music was a very good touch the young woman singing had an incredible voice. If your in the area you've got to stop by and give them a shot
Started with a key lime martini that was unique and delicious. Next was lobster bisque that was amazing. The duck entree was prepared perfect with a great pistachio/cranberry port Demi glaze. Wine selections compliment the Italian inspired dishes. Great restaurant for a romantic evening.
I took my husband to Roadhouse for his birthday as a surprise. We had reservations for 7:15p but arrived a few minutes early. We were greeted, confirmed, and immediately seated. The look on my husbands face completely changed as from the outside it doesnt look like much but inside it was a beautiful environment. They had a live band, it was not packed despite it being Good Friday, and tables well spaced. The table was decorated with birthday sprinkles and a birthday hat. Debbie was our server and she went above and beyond through the entire evening. She gave us the specials. We ordered the escargot as an appetizer and it was really good. Entrees I had the encrusted salmon my husband the encrusted lamb both dishes were delicious!!! We ended the night with Debbie bringing a birthday desert and ice cream. Lucas was not our server but kept wishing my husband a happy birthday throughout the night. We had such a great time that we stayed a little later at the bar. Staff Debbie & Lucas really made the night for us. We will definitely be back! Roadhouse is definitely a hidden GEM that I am glad we found.
I made a reservation for my husband's birthday on 4/9 for 6pm.Got there a few minutes early..Couldn't find the reservation when we arrived, got seated at the bar facing the band. Asked to be moved to a table, couldn't be done. We were reassured by the Hostess AND our server, BEST SEAT IN THE HOUSE and we'd request it going forward. We ordered drinks, which were quite good. Had I known we needed to REQUEST a table I would have . We had lobster bisque as an appetizer..TO DIE FOR!! We finished the soup and ordered our entree..seafood casserole.. In the meantime, a couple come in and are seated at a table right in front of us. Okay..so this couple orders champagne and the "gentleman" turns his chair around to face the band. They bring our dinner and this "gdntlemsn" is so close to my plate, I could have rested my fork on his head. After a couple of bites of my dinner, I leaned forward and asked him to please move forward.He says I have no place to go. My husband days, try facing your table. Needless to say, our dinner was OVER. We asked for the check and told the "Manager " about the experience. She apologized and said she hoped we'd come back. Well, NOT ANY TIME SOON!!! The icing on the cake was I actually got a phone call ftom "Cindy" at 6:30 wondering where we were for our "birthday celebration "We were seated at THE BEST SEATS IN HOUSE CINDY . NOT THE EVENING WE HAD BEEN LOOKING FORWARD TO?
Amazing service, amazing food, and very incredible jazz music to boot. Have been to many fine dining establishments and this one holds their own, no question. The wine selection is great, and their food is fresh and well done. Not too oversaturated with sauces and salt, like one would normally get dining out. They could use a few more creative cocktails on their drink list but other than that, no complaints. Highly recommended.
From the location, you'd never know the gem inside. Once inside, you're transported to a high-end, beautiful restaurant. They have a professional, efficient, expert staff that anticipates your every need. We had Jenna who has a warm, inviting personality. The food was delicious. This is a place to put on your must-go list. Especially when they have live jazz music. Reservations are recommended. It was packed on a Wednesday night.
My wife + I visited on a Friday night. We were fortunate to get barside counter seats. Very plesant live dinner music -4 piece band. Not too loud. We enjoyed the calamari and baked scrod. AS good as New England fare. The best part of the experience was the outstanding service we received from Bill, a native New Englander smart enough to move to SW Florida. His recommendations were spot on. We never felt rushed, and he always seemed to be in the right place at the perfect time.
We visit Fort Myers every March and this is our first stop. The music initially was the draw for us but the food is excellent. Tonight our server, Lucas, was great!! He is attentive, knowledgeable about the menu and answered all our questions. Our favorite dinner is the pan seared scallops over risotto, it is consistently very good. I also enjoy the salmon, cooked perfectly and tasty. The Roadhouse Cafe has it all, good food, good service and good music.
Took my Moms best friend for a Birthday celebration and it was AMAZING. We arrived and they brought us to our table that was decorated with confetti and Happy Birthday signs and hats. That was a special surprise. Food was Absolutley Amazing. The staff was attentive and very friendly, everyone of them. The band playing sang to My friend Happy Birthday ? which also was a nice surprise. The Music is perfect for a Amazing even. I recommend everyone to stop in and have a bite or just a drink. I truly was impressed to find this restaurant which is a little hidden secret. Cant Thank them all enough for making that night so special and such amazing food, service and friendly staff.
Made reservations for 515 pm to celebrate my parents' 45th anniversary. They had no idea what they were in for as this was a surprise for them. Doors opened at 5 pm. We were greeted and seated right away. The ambiance upon walking in was very inviting, with perfect dinner lighting. The table was covered with hearts to celebrate my parents. Right after being seated, we were greeted by Ed/Edward, our waiter. He was amazing, very personable, knowledgeable about the menu, and even offered his top 3 suggestions for food. We were able to sample a Riesling and Moscato before getting a bottle for the table to share. We ended up taking Ed's suggestion on the 14oz New York strip with the pepper crust. They were all cooked perfectly. The garlic mashed potatoes and asparagus were great accompaniments to the steak. My mom got the vegetable medley, and she enjoyed those as well. After dinner, Ed came out with a complimentary dessert for my parents. I ordered the almond meringue, which was very light, decadent, and flavorful. Around 630 pm, the jazz band started playing, which made it the ultimate experience for them. I would definitely recommend Roadhouse Cafe to anyone looking for a fine dining experience with live jazz music. We will be back for sure.
