★★★★★ 5.0 Sandra Woodard · Nov 2025

We recently visited this place for lunch on a Friday afternoon. When we checked in, we were told there would be about a 25 minute wait. The waitress took our phone number - and, lo and behold, approximately 25 minutes later we were notified that the table was ready. We ordered a myriad of different dishes and all was excellent - we didn't have to wait long for our food, the order was correct, and everything was tasty. The waitress was very friendly and prices were quite reasonable. We are planning to return to this restaurant in the near future. Very much enjoyed it!

Great meal. Cajun grilled shrimp was large and cooked perfectly. Those onion strings were addicting! I would definitely eat here again when in the area. Service from Jules was excellent.

First time I went Kevin was the bartender and the service and food were excellent. I had to bring my Fiancé to try and the second meal we had was also delicious! Recommend the beef short rib tacos, the salmon salad, the hush puppies, and the sweet potato fries! The Philly cheesesteak wasn’t my fiancé’s favorite but it was good!

Met friends here on Friday night, had a short 15 minute wait for a table. Not bad at all. Started with fried pickles and cheddar hush puppies which were both delicious. I had the bacon wrapped pork tenderloin (medium) and my wife had grilled catfish. My tenderloin was overcooked and the bacon burned so I didn’t eat the bacon which was a waste. Grilled fish was very good. For the price, I expected another side (only get one) or a small salad. Total bill was $75 for the two of us. Very good service.

Been wanting to go to Ro’s pretty much ever since I moved to the area but never made it out until this past weekend…Neeley and her mom went, had appetizers, left, then came back to meet me for dinner…food was exactly what I expected, deeeeeeelicious! Sat at the bar and Cannon took great care of us…knew some of the same people, made the whole experience fun! Looking forward to going back…got there at 4:15 and there were already under a wait! Great food, great service, locally owned, win + win + win!
