I was happy to see that brunch had returned after a long absence at Roadside B&G. I missed the free breakfast biscuits and was glad that they were good as they used to be. I had the shrimp and grits and it was a 3.5 out of 5. The shrimp was good but the grits could have been a bit more creamy and better seasoned. Our server was nice but I kind of expected my daughter's kids meal to be free after finding a fruit fly in her fruit but it was not; we simply got a new fruit bowl.

My wife stopped for a couple of drinks and an appetizer on a Friday night. The wait for a table was about an hour in the dining area. We were able to get a table on the covered and heated patio to avoid the wait. We could have also chosen to eat at the bar.We started with a drink. My wife had the Blueberry martini, which she really enjoyed. It was like a frozen drink. The vodka and lemonade took off the tart/sweet of the blueberry. We chose the brussel sprouts for our appetizers which were very good. They are on the better side of this popular appetizer. I would not say the brussels are different, but they are better in my opinion. We finished with cups of the tomato-basil soup, which were good.This is our third time here, and is one of my wife's faves. The atmosphere is upscale bistro. It is very cute inside. The crowd is older and more on the businessy side. I appreciate the menu is on the shorter side. The portions tend to the smaller side, which I appreciate. The service has been attentive and excellent every visit.

After living near this restaurant for three years, I finally came in for a date night. My boyfriend and I arrived on a Friday night near 7 PM, thinking we were going to have to wait a while for a seat but we were sat immediately. Amanda D was our server and was phenomenal. She was patient with me, as I was unsure what I wanted to eat since a few things caught my eye. With my meal, I had a porter beer while my SO had an IPA. Both beers were around $7 or $8. He ordered a small Caesar, which was enough for both of us to share. He was asked if he would like anchovies on the salad, to which he said yes. My boyfriend stayed the anchovies really brought out the flavor and was glad to have the salad with anchovies. He also ordered the buffalo shrimp and short rib taco appetizers as his entree. The shrimp was jumbo and very Buffalo-flavored. They were good, but I could make them at home and would probably not order again. I didn't try the tacos but he stated they were very good. I ordered the panko chicken cutlet and loved it. My only suggestion would be to include a side soup or salad instead of having it be an additional cost.The dinner was over after an hour and for a Friday night, I think prompt and efficient service is a win in itself. I would like to go back and have the blackened shrimp taco bowl.

We found this gem based on my sister's recommendations of restaurants in the area. We were looking for a nice restaurant for an impromptu anniversary dinner and Roadside fit the bill. My husband enjoyed the walleye special and I loved the whitefish entree. We both ordered side salads and had more than enough. Everything was very tasty and served in a timely fashion with friendly staff. We did sit outside on the patio which is covered and surrounded by tall grass. We did not see any of the traffic and truthfully the road noice is like a dull hum until a hot rod or large dump truck goes by. (Remember Roadside is in the name. )My husband and I could easily hold a conversation.

Service was great but but our salmon and trout were not up to Roadside's usual standard.

Stopped here on a Saturday night after visiting at St Joseph's hospital (it was a little before 10). We were tired & hungry and so glad to find a decent place open until 11.When we pulled into the lot, there were still quite a bit of cars there. Of course at the time we arrived, got seated right away, though I suspect during peak hours there would be quite a wait. I got the sangria - it wasn't bad. They served us 1 biscuit apiece (they were good & I wished for a 2nd one). My husband had the fish & chips and I had the chicken with honey, green beans & rosemary truffle fries (those were good!). Both dishes a solid 4. Service was very good tooAtmosphere was fun - industrial space- cement block walls, exposed pipes on ceiling & lots of sleek stainless steel. And everyone there seemed to be enjoying themselves. Good find!

Food was delicious! I don't know what they do to those Brussel sprouts but they are bomb! Really enjoyed their classic lemon drop! I tried their meatloaf because someone else recommended it but there was really nothing special about it. The place was fine but we had asked the servers to help us out because the sun was hitting our faces and the server said there were no curtains or shades to cover it. They had other shades/curtains in most windows but the one hitting our faces does not have any. He didn't even offer to move us somewhere else and he kept checking on us to the point that it felt annoying. We ordered another round of drinks and we said, we're good for now. The next thing we knew, he was leaving the bill on the table so we paid and moved somewhere else where we can enjoy our drinks more. Not the best service for sure.

A warm and inviting , well road side inn with a vibrant bar and rustic wood interior with warm lighting. The service was so friendly and attentive and the menu was stacked with Great Lake front favorites and coastal specialties! Broiled white fish plate was outstanding - also great side salads and starters. The guacamole and tortilla chips was homemade and truly delicious. Went great with our old fashions and full bar drink specialties!
