Rox Gastropub — Restaurant in Wooster

Wanted to try a new restaurant. When asked what we wanted to drink, our waitress didn't even know what a lime margarita is. When we told her what was in it, she said the closest drink they had to a lime margarita was a drink called Lake Water. I tried it and it was the nastiest drink I have ever tasted. I took TWO sips and when I asked if I could send it back for a glass of White Zinfandel, she said they only carried red. She asked me if I wanted to try a sample of their sweetest wine, I obliged. I took one sip of it and said no thank you. The food was good but not fulfilling. When the bill was brought to me, I was charged the full price for the Lake Water, I told her I only took two sips. She said she would ask if it could be removed from the bill. She went behind the bar and a female with short black hair said (very loudly) if they drink it they pay for it. Our waitress came back and said she could only take off a small amount, which I ended up paying $1. per sip. I told my husband, I guess this is what I get for trying out a new restaurant We will...

I specifically come here for the service. Tiff is an amazing bartender and deals with my indecisiveness with a grace and patience I could never muster. The food is great and the chef is incredible (and kind to boot, a characteristic sometimes not found in the industry!). As consumers, we can often overlook the difficulty in managing a busy bar and restaurant and the ease at which this can appear, when realistically the staff is putting in a lot of work and unseen hours that we, the public, are often blind to. Rox often deals with DORA orders (mind you, these drinks are often more than two steps or a beer pull) while servicing a full space, even in these situations I’ve never felt put out or like a nuisance. Rox feels comfortable and welcoming and in a time where everything can feel rather hostile, I’m really grateful...

Broken Rocks and its sister restaurant, Rox, are my family's favorite spots to eat in Wooster. I am writing this review today in honor of the charred snap peas at Rox. This newish (springtime) menu item is the best thing I have ever eaten here. The chefs really outdid themselves with the Charred Creamy Snap Peas. By giving the outside of the snap peas a quick char, the inside remains crisp, and the flavor deepens and brightens. It’s just so unusual and delicious—I am obsessed. So, please, Glen, this is my plea to keep this on the menu forever and ever. :)I also love all of the cocktails. The bartenders are friendly and do a great job crafting each drink from scratch. Everything in the restaurant is made from scratch, and it shows. Wooster...
