The name says it all. This is the Best "Damn" Little Restaurant.

Service - impeccable. Our waitress may have been the best "damn" waitress we have ever had. I wish I could remember her name but I do remember she was tall ( 6') and very attractive. Her timing was perfect as far as delivery of food and when to refill our drinks and even when she came by to ask if everything was ok.

Food - fantastic. My wife ordered the ribs that were to die for. Fall off the bone, fantastic bbq sauce, and the baked potatoes were awesome. I ordered a ribeye steak that was tender, flavorfull and cooked exactly how I had asked.

We both walked out feeling like we were the only people there being waited on even though the place was packed. One suggestion is to dine a little earlier than 7pm as the place getts slammed but I honestly cannot think of one bad thing. We have since eaten there a few more times and just as before it has always been perfect.

Happy hour review ONLY:
3-6pm, 9-close

Don't miss potato skins and buffalo wings--enough for 2 people.  Thursday nights have $4 martinis; I recommend Guavalicious.

They have a decent selection of beers on tap, including some local choices.

The service is usually speedy and the place is spotless, especially for happy hour.

REALLY good burgers and nice deals on drinks every night (one night is half off wines by the bottle, for instance).

You can also reserve the back area for big parties (perfect for when I was president of my sorority and needed a last minute place for 65 girls to eat together!)

With a putt-putt golf course on site, cheap drinks, good food, and fun are what the Best Little Roadhouse is about!

Everytime I come home I try to visit this restaurant. The food is superubly prepared and I have never had a problem with them getting an order correct or cooking a steak the way it is requested. Their bread is fabulous! It is a bit noisey and dark, but can be very romantic.

I also used them to cater my rehersal dinner. Everything was hot and there was no pressure to hurry. They even delivered and everything very reasonably priced!

LOVE this place.  Very close to my house so I go there often.  A little known secret is they have a fabulous happy hour menu with $3 burger and fries and the burgers are to die for (you have to sit in the bar to get the deals on the happy hour food however).  I know this place is super popular because the parking lot is always packed when I drive by.  We get excellect service 95% of the time.

After going to this restaurant once I decided that I didn't need to go back except to play mini golf. The portions were just ridiculous and the menu was very meat heavy.  My family ordered a variety of things including the prime rib, the tri tip and a chicken sandwich.  Our salads arrived and I realized that it was going to be a painful night.  Our waitress got our orders wrong to start with and was very slow bringing our beverages out.  When everything was sorted out our salads came and the waitress asked "would you like cheese and bacon on that?"  which became almost a mantra for her.  She asked for the baked potatoes and the fries and . . . I'm sure there was more.  The meat was okay, but could have been more flavorful and more tender.  After we were done eating the dinner rush was in full swing and it took almost 30 mins to get a check, even though our plates had been cleared.  Definitely not going back for some time.
