Lavaca Street Bar At Rock Rose

Decent food, good bartenders, pretty chill atmosphere. Not too much more to say other than they're open late

During our Werewolves of London anniversary weekend we hit up a bunch of places, every trip like this we do, a staycation weekend we try and eat at or visit one new place to us. This time we stopped in at Lavaca and the bar is huge in the middle and there are so many TV's playing so many different teams and sports you have something for everyone. That seems to be a big selling point of theirs.We were getting a sort of late lunch, early dinner and some drinks. Just to get the night going. The reviews seem mixed on the food, I think it comes from another place, I really was not paying that close of attention. Shana got a chicken club or some type of panni sandwich with Fries. I got a pizza, the pizza does take some time but the menu lets you know that. I am fine with extra time when they are upfront about it like this place was. The sandwich was ok, the sourdough bread was super tough according to Shana. The Pizza was way better then I was expecting given the reviews and the fries were also tasty. Nothing was blow you away good but better then I thought it would be going in.The drinks were okay. No drink menu or cocktail options so I got a jack and coke. We did get green tea shots which is a staple of ours and these were the worst I have had, they didn't taste like any green tea shot I have had previously and we get them anywhere we can. The normal drink was fine, the shots were meh.I didn't really interact with the bartenders or staff. When I went to pay our tab, they gave me someone else's check. The guy it belonged was trying to pay at the same time and he realized I got his. He was joking with the bartender who did it, but also "jokingly" asking her why she keeps giving his bill to others and she made some joke comment back so I get the feeling this is a pretty regular thing at least with her. It seems like it would be a cool place to hand out in as a regular or a sports lover. We are neither so we moved on pretty quickly.

Came by for a bite to eat while shopping on a Saturday. Early afternoon so it was not very busy. I had a po boy sandwich once years ago here and wanted to rekindle that taste. Ordering is somewhat simple but also difficult. You're asked to order by phone with the QR code but you can't make modifications. A girl in the kitchen came and took our order at the register but then we found out they don't take cash. No big deal but I wanted to use cash. Bar service was excellent. Alek had a warm welcome and good conversation. My salad was the perfect bite I needed while shopping. Other than the strict ordering rules in the kitchen and not being able to customize my food it was a pleasant experience.

Random decision to stop in and get lunch. The food was fine but I think for the price it wasn't. It was an extra $5 for fries even though we ordered a sandwich. An extra $1 for ranch even though we ordered wings. There's no servers, you order on your phone and they bring it out to you. This makes it extremely hard to edit things on your order and ask questions. It was college football Saturday so lots of games on the tvs which was nice.

Do not come here if you are Jewish and cover your hair in any way. You will be insulted and equated to random movie characters or cartoons. It is wildly offensive, even as a fellow member of the service industry. I will never be coming back.

Location is great- right in the heart of Rock Ross Ave- but I mainly loved their ordering system. You scan barcode, place order, pay, and they bring it to you. You don't even interact with waiter and it's great for groups separating checks. Food is okay, just like any bar type food but ambiance is good- sports bars type.

Nice place plenty of choices drink and food prices are competitive and good. Lots of TVs and good service

Shoe STRING parmesan fries.... Not string, no flavor, hardly a serving... just lacking in the fry department all together :/

Extensive TV screens for watching games line the walls overhead. That's as good as it gets. Drinks are ordered separately from food. Modest list of beers and a large selection of hard liquors high above the bar that are not readily identifiable. Limited waitstaff that are helpful and polite. Mediocre bar food ordered either online or from a window. Be prepared to wait about 45-55 minutes for a tepid dried out meal. Recommendation - Have a nice dinner elsewhere in the Domain. Then, enjoy a few beers and a game at Lavaca with your friends.

Great bar. Just don't get that one make bartender. U will know. hostile AF. Like bro. Take a pill.
