My only complaint was it was very very cold in there. We didn't stay as long as we could have because my girlfriend was freezing. I would give this a 3 1/2 or 4 out of 5 simply because of how cold it was inside the rest I have no complaints.

Outside- yes, it used to be a pretty rough bar but was taken over and made into a great tavern. The burgers coming out on brioche grilled buns looked amazing! Wasn't too hungry so went with pick two on the apps. What I liked? The pick two isn't limited.. like they tell you which couple items you can pick. That's small but greatly appreciated bonus. Went with the clam strips (good) and the house battered mushroom slices. And get with their house made ranch! In this cold weather, they also have a great fireplace in the middle, so wherever you sit, you're getting some heat. Looking forward to coming back for dinner! If you want to support a local, family owned restaurant, this is your place!

I don't know what other issues people had with service but everyone was super nice and helpful. And walked me thru the menu. Got the smoke wings with garlic parm on side. I would vote 7/10. Great flavor withoutsauce but a "little" dry. If we are being picky vs others I've tried. But again, I would 100% get them again. Garlic parm sauce was great to dip them in. The star of the meal? The smoked pastrami 20/10. . Hands down.. amazing. It's an extremely close second to Green Street bbq in Chicago. I got their regular bbq sauce (Carolina red) on the side. It's called Carolina but no vinegar. Which I'm ok with. What great sweat bbq sauce. Totally unique. Would be amazing on chicken or pulled pork. I'm now a huge fan of this place. Can't wait to try rest of menu and Brisket Mac n cheese!

I stop by Carrol Lou's all the time. Food is good and you get a lot. I stopped today to get lunch…read more They were busy with a line waiting to order. I stepped to the back of the line to wait my turn. The young lady taking orders took five people's orders ahead of me. I stepped up to order and she stepped away to start helping the two people fixing the food. Now I was the last one in the line when she stepped away. Why she just did not take my order and then step away I doing not know. I stood there for a long time then gave up and left. I ran in to the owner outside and told him about it. He just blew me off and called me Buddy. The owners have been arrogant in the past for no reason. I am aways nice and respectful. This restaurant's business is good now but treating good customers like this will hurt your business in the long run. I will never eat there again.

In town for a visit to mom's house and took her to dinner here for her birthday, as it's one of her…read morefave places to go to lunch with her friends. We arrived as they were opening at 5:00 (we like to eat at old people o'clock) and had a seat. Robbie's is a really nice vibe with a long wooden bar and great artwork on the walls. Our server and service were fantastic, but the food was a disappointment. We both ordered the rib eye and it came with soup or salad, smashed potatoes and asparagus. We had salads with blue cheese dressing. The salad itself was kind of meh-way too many black olives that I wasn't expecting to be on there in the first place, and the blue cheese was so thin and had a vinegar taste to it as well-not great. Our steaks were just ok. Not enough sear on the outside and absolutely no flavor of being seasoned. This is the first time I've had to add salt to a steak in a very long time. Mom ordered rare and I ordered medium and mine came as rare as hers. I asked if I could get another minute or so on mine and they were great about taking care of it. The potatoes and asparagus were delicious. Bernaise sauce was a bit thin but tasty. We had ordered a spiced peach half on the side and it was yummy. I could've had just those and the potatoes and been quite happy! I would come back here and order something different on the menu, but my 3 star rating comes from the disappointment in the steaks. I expected a seared and seasoned melt in my mouth ribeye and was left wanting.

We got there a little after 5:00 and we were impressed as soon as we entered. They had closed all the bar seating so it was just tables for two and four. The lights were dimmed and soft jazz music was playing; creating a very romantic atmosphere. Each table had a single red rose and the TV was "tuned" to a fireplace. Our starter course was champagne accompanied by olive oil and slices of French bread. What a great way to start the evening! We each had filets and both were cooked to perfection. The steaks came by incredible roasted potatoes and mixed vegetables. We both finished our steaks and took home plenty of vegetables for tomorrow. We also had a caramel chocolate cake that looks delicious, but we were too full to eat so it's in our refrigerator waiting for us! Service by Kristi and Rodney was superior, the atmosphere was perfectly romantic and the price was very reasonable. All in all, it was a perfect Valentine's meal!
