In the last few months, the kitchen has literally messed up our food every single time we’ve ordered (we probably order at least once or twice every other week). Super disappointed and frustrated to the point where we’re no longer planning to order food there anymore. Once or twice is understandable, but every single time? Sucks because the environment is fun and we love the staff. The kitchen really needs to get their act together though. I attached photos of our most recent order - supposed to be a chophouse burger and the other meal was supposed to have fries with it. No sauce was included either. This is after my partner worked a really long day, made a 46 minute round trip, and waited at the bar for the food for a half hour. Just make sure to check on your food when ordering takeout. No one else seems to. The food is great when they get it right though!

Surprisingly great food for a small sports bar. Wide selection of beer on draft at fair prices. Service was excellent. Lots of daily food and drink specials are available. This is a great place to drop by for a quick bite that won't break the bank. We really liked the sweet potato fries! Seating is limited to small tables and the bar, so it's best for small groups. We will be back again for lunch next time we're in Burlington.

Great downtown bar with and restaurant right on main st next to the theater. Used to come back here in college and found its still the same old RJ’s (which is a good thing). The food was good (1/2 off burger special on certain days), the service was top notch (our server was awesome) and overall my group had a great time.

If you’re looking for a great sports bar that has any game you’re looking to watch, amazing food, and fantastic service, this is your spot. RJs has been the place to go from when i was younger and in college. the nights i’ve had at this place will forever be a fond memory for me. A place where I came home for school breaks to meet back up with childhood friends to reconnect and celebrate. I recently moved back home for a few months (covid-work-from-home-situation) with my partner and we continued to come back to RJs for drinks, football and basketball games, and to just have a good time. RJs is by far the best bar in BTV. the service is impeccable (love u miya, jackie, and zach ) the food is also REALLY delish as well- get the buffalo or kitchen sink wings, southwest egg rolls!! RJs will always be a home away from home for me and hopefully a home Away from home for you....

Worst customer service I’ve experienced in my life. My server acted as if she didn’t want to serve me. I ordered a margarita and before I could even ask what flavors they had she walked off. She had a bad attitude because I asked for a Corinna then changed my mind. Second, I order BBQ Chicken Wings and that’s all they gave me, she didn’t ask if I wanted water, wet wipes, or NAPKINS. I’m really upset she didn’t even give me napkins. Also, she didn’t even ask if I wanted to participate in trivia night. Im African American and the atmosphere in that place made me feel uncomfortable. I definitely felt like I shouldn’t be in Ruben James. Plus it was .75 cents wings night she didn’t even honor that price. I paid and didn’t even take the...
