Too Ra Loo

Great place for large grounds with a group of 6 we walked right in and sat down. Irish sports bar ambiance. I got the grizzly pizza and it was good, there was an unbelievable amount of toppings on it which made it pretty greasy. Drink prices were good and service was good. Overall our group found their food to be just ok, however, everyone agreed it was a great place to grab drinks with a group.

In our personally part 2 of eating around Rochester, we found ourselves at Too Ra Loo. It had been on our food list and came recommended by an acquaintance. While most people working here were very kind, and went out of their way to assist us, the hostess was curt and not overly eager to assist and continued to be a bit salty the entire night as we had a few interactions with this person.As mentioned, the rest of the staff was amazing. The server super friendly, several other people stopped by the table to make sure all was well. The space is cute, your typical bar. It seems very popular, there were parties going on and many people waiting to eat. Their pineapple cocktail was okay. Where it's at is with their diverse beer selection. We tried a fluffer nutter stout, very good. I was craving a Sam Adam's cherry wheat, which is very basic since they had so many good choices, but it was refreshing. The pours were good. Not all places can pour a good, cold beer, but they did here. Looking at Yelp, it seemed like many people liked the pizza, so we had the Spartan, no peppers, add chicken. It was very flavorless and mediocre. The crust was good in ranch. But I did not like it. Oh well. The other food looked good, maybe this was not the thing to order. We also had the truffle fries. Those were really good, a bit pricey, but tasty, the regular ranch was awesome. I did not care for the siracha ranch though. If you were to ask me if I would come back, I would if there was a group of friends or people who wanted to hang out and try their large beer selection.

Friend dragged me here. Sports bar with bar food. Ordered chicken and rings mostly because I didn't want to spend $21 on a burger and fries. No plans to return.

It's a bar, a sports bar. With a name such as Too Ra Loo I was expecting an Irish Bar. Anyhow, fairly large, clean, open air wall to Rochester Road (Main Street). Huge tap which I did not get to enjoy (lunch from work). Good service, prompt and friendly. It was not busy at noon on Tuesday but I drove past on Monday and it seemed to be jumping. I thought the menu was limited to just bar food but I think that's what they are going for. I had a bowl of chili, made with roasted beef not ground and with most restaurant chili it could have used more heat (but they are cooking for the masses not a hot pepper addict). Also had fish and chips. Good chips, really good if not a touch too salty but I put salt on nothing so a normal person might add salt. The fish was really good, not greasy. I would say only two pcs of fish seems light but I didn't finish the second pc (they were thick).. While I may not go back for lunch, I could see stopping in for beer, sports and dinner.

Im so mad im writing this review at my table. Our server is RUDE. We've been here for 45 minutes and for the first 35 she would not take our order, servicing every table around us but not us. She ignored my eye contact til I called her over to order. I get service jobs are annoying but if you're gonna ignore your customers and walk around with a face, maybe it's time to work in a different industry.Since it took her so long to take our order I can't say how todays food tasted but the few times I've been here it's been good. I'm just severely unhappy with the level of service on a Sunday with this place at less than half capacity.

I was super surprised to find out they're a sister restaurant with Otooles in Royal Oak. I love that. My service was good. Drinks were decent. I got mozzarella sticks, not worth $10 for sure but I guess they did the job.

We stopped by for a working lunch, our service was outstanding. We both had salads that were plentiful for the smalls and I also had stuffed pepper soup which was amazing. The ambiance is great with their ability to open the doors to the outside for enjoying beautiful days.

Had an afternoon late lunch with a friend and it was a very enjoyable experience. Food was good (had the chicken sandwich) and the service was great. Hostess and waitress were very friendly. Waitress Olivia stopped by regularly to kindly ask if we were enjoying our meals and to refill our waters. Sports bar atmosphere was nice and the open window seats facing Rochester Road were a bit loud at times with the outside traffic, but the breeze coming in and bright sunny day made it well worth it. Would definitely recommend and hope to try it again in the future.

I've been frequenting Too Ra Loo off and on over the past few years now and tonight's visit just stood out to me. For starters, it was Friday night and pretty busy in downtown Rochester overall, and in the restaurant itself. All that being said, what hit me most was our server, George's attentiveness and chill way about him. Strange to say, but the fact he even introduced himself by name is somewhat unique it seems these days. I chose some pretty typical bar food by ordering a Philly cheesesteak and side of onion rings and a ROAK Devil Dog beer. The portions were large and everything was delivered pretty quickly and George checked in with us just the right amount to make sure we were all good. I typically enjoy sitting at the bar itself, this time though my son and I sat at a hightop. The restaurant is an open space and the bar gives it that extra bit of ambiance that I like.Overall, I recommend Too Ra Loo, and I've never had a bad experience with food, wait time or anything.Hope this helps you make a choice for your next visit to downtown Rochester :)Oh yeah, one last thing, I totally forgot to take pictures. There's always next time ...

Had show tix in the area and wanted drinks/dinner prior. Two of us arrived at 5:50, there were about 10 open tables. Son and gf were 10 mins away. We were told they wouldn't seat us until all 4 were present but we could "stand at the rail". Note there are no 2-tops so even if we were alone we would still be seated at a 4-top. Standing at The rail is like standing on top/hovering over people that are seated and eating as well, so rude and awkward for them. There was zero reason not to seat us, as we would have ordered drinks and apps in the meantime and we've met people there before and never had this issue. Waitress asked if we wanted a drink at the "rail", we declined stating that we'd spend money once we were seated comfortably. In the meantime they seated incomers at open tables, meaning that within a short time there would no longer be open tables and our wait would be longer. Finally we were seated, hostess came over and said "Im gonna go ahead and seat you" like she was doing us a favor. Our son/gf arrived as we sat. Then, we sat. And sat. And sat. Table next to us was seated after us, but orders were being taken. It was 10 mins before my husband asked a manager(?) gentleman if we could be acknowledged/order. He asked the server that was with the newer table and she said "Its not my table"She eventually did end up taking care of us. Food was a full 30 min wait. All drinks ordered were during happy hour but when the bill came it was clear that they overcharged. Beers $3 charged at $4. $6 ghost tequila charged at $8 etc. Trying NOT to be a jerk and cause a dark cloud on our evening I told my hubs just pay it.Last time we'll go here, so many other options in the area.
