Rockwell's Neighborhood Grill

Nice outside pet friendly patio area. Local brews available, the spinach salad was delicious.

Visited tonight. We had three dads and 7year old kids. The food is what you would expect from a neighborhood grill. Nothing special. We came because it was conveniently located to where we had an event. The one star is due to an incident that the restaurant allowed and actually encouraged. At one point the three boys got up and ran to the front of the restaurant. When they returned to our table we were in the process of admonishing our boys when an old man approached from another table to berate us and disparage our kids. When we told him to sit down and we had the situation well in hand, their waiter came over to tell us to calm down. We never approached their table and only told him to move away from us. When we complained to the manager about what transpired and the behavior of their waiter, she backed him 100%. In essence, she advocated verbal assault by one patron to another and supported her waiter jumping on us as well. Needless to say, we don't feel safe bringing our kids back to a place that encourages this type of behavior. If you have kids, don't visit.

I used to frequent Rockwells quite a bit when I lived in the neighborhood and was always happy with their quality and service. I ordered for delivery recently and was really disappointed. I don't live that far - just under 2 miles. The fries were all cold by the time they got here - they were also dried out as if they'd been sitting under a lamp for a bit.The burgers were also cold and the impossible patty was extremely dry.The chicken bites were good but for $15, I expected a little more than the amount given.Overall, disappointing now and I'll have to find another neighborhood spot to satisfy the burger craving.

I've lived in the area for many years and Rockwell's had always been a reliable go-to for us in the past. We hadn't gone to eat there for a few years. No particular reason as I don't recall any negative experiences in the past.So when we recently went to dinner there, it was for the first time in quite awhile. It was a weekend night and so naturally we expected that it may take a little longer than usual to get a table and be served. We had tickets for a movie at the Davis afterward and so we gave ourselves a 90-minute window for dinner, thinking that should be more than enough time as the theater is fairly close to the restaurant.As it turned out, we almost didn't make the movie in time. First, the server, for some odd reason, decided to wait about 20 minutes after serving our appetizers to finally take our dinner order. Then it took just about an entire hour before we got our meals, which we had to eat as quickly as possible in order to make our movie on time. When I went to the bar to get and pay our bill, the server implied that they were a little short handed. OK, except that people at nearby tables who had been seated after us were getting their meals before we got ours. My guess is that our server was a bit disorganized and didn't know how to order his serving priorities. The food was OK, I guess. The fries were a little on the cold side, which indicated to me that my plate may have been sitting awhile before it found its way to my table. The burger I ordered was mediocre. Definitely not worth an hour and 20 minutes wait. Think it will be quite awhile before we head back to Rockwell's for a meal.

We love Rockwell's. The burgers are amazing. The once a month fish and chips are crazy good. The beer selection is outstanding. The outdoor seating is very nice and allows good dogs and children. The staff is great. Always friendly. Indoor seating is huge and also fun. They have also made an effort to keep prices reasonable. I'm thrilled they are in our neighborhood.

When I first moved to the neighborhood, this was one of the first restaurants I visited. I love that it's tucked into a residential neighborhood. It's open late, so you can always depend on it being open, especially if you have a late night food emergency.As for the food itself, I would rate it average quality. I can never seem to find any meals I love here, but it's all pretty solid. However, the selection is good and always rotating. I come here just for that a lot of times. Well, that and Timmy, who is just the best.On Tuesdays, they do trivia, which can get pretty crowded. However, I appreciate them having events to go to during the week. If you've never been here, give it a shot. It's a great place to bring the kids or visit by yourself and sit at the bar to watch sports.

I wish I had had a better experience here and maybe it was a fluke experience. Our group of 3 waited roughly 45 minutes for an outdoor seat and we saw people getting seated before us that had been in line after us (same group size). Unfortunately, when I checked back in, it turned out the host had forgotten to place us on the wait list for outdoor seating, he very generously apologized and offered us drinks from the bar on the house. We were seated and proceeded to wait for 15 minutes before a server arrived at our table for water and taking order. The food arrived roughly 45 minutes after ordering it was absolutely delicious! I had the French toast and my friends had tacos which were all killer. When we were ready for the check, there was another 20+ minute wait.Short staffing (and rush on a Friday night) stinks for all parties. Given the family friendly ambiance, the great menu (vegan and gluten free options!), the neighborhood feel, and the cute decor (indoor and outdoor seating, outdoor pet friendly), I plan to give this place another try.

Cool mostly cozy neighborhood bar and grill. It's conveniently located close to the Brown Line. Rockwell's Neighborhood Grill has been around awhile, since when the area was still a lot worse. Has pretty good amount of choices as far as drinks and food. The prices are okay. Best to get here by public transportation because it takes you right here. It's close to the Rockwell station on the Brown Line. This is one of the ones that's street level, so it's unique. Came in the last time and we got a few drinks, including a House Margarita. It's $7 so it's not that expensive compared to other places. Has a nice amount of choices for vegetarians including burgers. You can substitute an Impossible Burger and a dairy free bun for a few bucks more. Got the Rockwell Burger. It's $13 and this one is the cheapest. This has the basic toppings including dill pickle, lettuce, mustard, red onions, and tomatoes. Hop off and come in. It's easy to get to by public transportation. There's lots of local beers and good cocktails, and the burgers are the main food option with choices for both meat eaters and vegetarians.

I absolutely love Rockwell's. I believe they have had some issues with staff turnover because our server is always new. Despite this, we have always had great service. The most important reason I will keep going back to Rockwell's is the food. I always get the BLT with avocado, and it is the most delicious BLT ever. I tried the chicken tortilla soup, and I will be getting that again, too. My partner loves the steak sandwich. Rockwell's is a great restaurant with good service, a decent tap list, and consistently great food. I highly recommend!

Came here and was turned off by both the food and wait staff. Prices were fine but the food was mediocre at best
