My first time here and I’m fairly impressed. Roanoke has not been my favorite for food in the year + that I have lived here. This place is your typical Americana but it’s done well.

The croissants were delicious. I wasn’t there when they came out so I didn’t see the drizzle. Did not expect them to be that sweet but it was a nice surprise. Warm, flaky, sweet and almost a dessert before the meal.

The amount of salmon that I saw throughout the dining room tells me the salmon should be tried. Particularly the bourbon glazed.

I had a ribeye which was actually cooked to temp but was really tough. Hard to cut and chew. Potato tasted well but if you’re someone like me who likes to eat the skin it was a bit overdone on the bottom.

The light batter on the cheese curds was nice and crispy but neither it or the cheese had much flavor. The homemade ranch was a decent dipper and added some needed saltiness.

The most disappointing was the Cookie Monster which I forgot to photo. The cookie was soft to cut into but it was SO DRY!!! It crumbled before you could get it on your spoon. Ice cream was a solid chunk except the portion that had melted and was crystallized. Not sure how quickly my cookie came out because by the time it got to me I had a rock of ice cream surrounded by a puddle and the whipped cream was not standing at all. Flavor of the cookie wasn’t great, ice cream wasn’t great and it definitely was not cooked well.

Overall, it wasn’t bad. I would come back and try another dish but would NOT sit at another table where a whole half of the table is blocked in by a wall. Not sure how this is up to fire code and I would never want to be the person who is stuck in the corner with 2 people and 2 walls blocking your exit.
