Rockabillies — Restaurant in Arvada

This is the best local bar around this area. I was there for a benefit for a child that has Metopic Craniosynostosis  hosted By Rockabillies. The band FortNight played on stage, amazing musicians. I had the Memphis Burger with onion rings, It was huge and cooked to perfection. They must have  a true Chef in the kitchen. ( I was interviewed by the executive producer of Master Chef so I know good food). I could not eat it all. It is a full service bar so you can order almost anything. The draft beers are a little sparse, however they are good. I had the Apricot Wheat, it paired well with the Memphis burger. The Service was also very good. Everyone I talked to at this event all gave it a thumbs up. I did hear that some reviewer was mad because he somehow heard someone say there was a 20% discount from Rockabillies going to this benefit. That was wrong, it is a purchase from the Arvada Black Jack Pizza that they are donating 20% for 2 weeks. Be careful what you overhear! Rockabillies was gracious enough to help out by hosting this event, Rod Steele, it is your integrity I question. I was one of the organizers and believe me we all knew they were only...

Decided to come back to check-out the revamped ROCK-A-BILLIES after, the recently aired (3/5/2023) episode of Bar Rescue that featured this restaurant NOW called ROCK-A-BILLIES Retro Bar.

The menu has many options that are very suitable for higher quality bar food. The interior is well done. The rescue didn't include the restrooms tho. The vibe was very old Vegas with great music selection. No to loud. The owner was the first to sorta greet us, little cold with the welcome. I mentioned we had come to check-out the Bar Rescue. No further interaction for the rest of the visit. 2pm free customers in the establishment. Correction: Owner thanks is as we were leaving.

The service was good. Friendly staff, and service was in a reasonable time for drinks, and food timing.

Once we got the check it took a little while for the server to come back to pick up the to close out. Not a big deal tho. She apologized so that's a easy overlook.

I had the Johnny Cash Philly Dip sandwich with great shoestring fries. I would order again.

Other guest had the buffalo chicken salad. It was a letter portion sided salad. Decent amount of...

I'm guessing these people who gave this place an "Excellent" are related to the owners... I really, REALLY wish I could give this place a better review because the concept is so fun, and I've had a good time there a few times. Here's the deal- the food is so-so, not great. It's bar food and can vary in quality. The real issue I have is the service. The only time I've had good service was a Tuesday night when I sat AT the bar. If you sit in the restraunt, be prepared to wait at least 20 minutes for a greeting, 20 to 30 for water, more for your drinks, waaaaaay more for your food, and a whole lot longer for your check. Be prepared for your food order to be incorrect and cold. If you are going just for music, burlesque and drinks and you are not in any hurry, it's a cool experience. The music has always been great, and the burlesque is terrific. The Tuesday night music bingo is fun too. Just plan on waiting...
