The roadhouse is a great place to go when you're up in the north country. The food is great. Great fish fry, burgers and Italian dishes. The service is great too. The one problem you have is the place is always packed with people. So sometimes you have a pretty good wait. I have to because the place is so good I felt obligated to write this review. But I really can't believe that any more people can fit in the place. Time for an expansion. The place is great as well as the service. read more

The lunch menu is always outstanding, lots to choose from, plus a friendly staff, you won't be disappointed!!

Service was good. Went for the beer battered fish fry. We've gotten them in the past and they were delicious. Tried them tonight and someone in the kitchen really doesn't no how to make a beer battered fish. I think they floured the fish first then dredged them through extra thick batter. Fish tasted like uncooked flour even though the batter was way too dark and greasy, probably because our last fish fry here. They used to have a reasonably priced and delicious fried fish. Not sure what happened but we have friends who also mentioned that their fish dinner went down hill. It's a shame. read more

Absolutely great home style food. Service was excellent always. Can get pretty crowded.

Absolutely love the workers, the food is always good. Anytime we go on vacation up there we go at least once. Highly recommend:)

Friendly fast service. Delicious chili in a bread bowl!! Always happy with the food at JK's.

Most of the other places around here have bad reviews so we came here. Well the good reviews are well earned. Not fancy by a solid spot for a good meal. I tried one the specials which was a broiled haddock. It was excellent, fresh. Ice white meat perfectly broiled served with my choice of side. I picked the sweet potato fries which were very well done. My wife had the shrimp scampi with some very fresh and well cooked shrimp served over angel hair pasta is butter. Again not fancy just good ingredients well executed. They have very reasonably priced drinks and the service was on point. Great place for a meal in the is part of the world. read more

Came here based on the good Yelp reviews and our experience was not quite as glowing as others...but it was not bad either! Quick service, nicely air conditioned, and decent menu options. We both opted to get sandwiches. Hubby got a pulled pork/beef sandwich and it was not too spicy...lucky for me as I always like to snag a bite of his meal. He really liked the sweet potato fries - nice and crispy. My sandwich was good but a tad greasy as it was grilled. The crisp on the bread was good but a little too greasy for me. If we are in the area again, we would check in to see if they have any fish specials - we heard a few folks talking about how good it was. read more

Service and food were outstanding . They have amazing ribs and prime rib. Our friend enjoys the eggplant parm

We were in Clayton for the pumpkin Chuckin event. It was like being at the New York State fair. So when we tried to get reservations, they were all booked up by 9 AM. So we decided to head towards abay. There was a place called JK's roadhouse that got great reviews on yelp so we decided to check it out and we were certainly not disappointed. But reservations are required. When we got there, we were politely seated and a energetic server came over to take our water order. Turns out after conversation she was one of the owners doing waitressing that night. Man was she busy. But it was as if we had a continuous server she was that good. So we ordered the prime rib since it was a Saturday special and looked really good. The order came out very timely and it was the most delicious prime rib. I think I've had in a long time. Buttered baked potato broccoli on the side what more could you ask for. The food was five star. The service was five star. I would recommend this place to anybody. And we will absolutely make it a stop every time we go out towards Alexandria Bay. Stop and meet the owners and support this local establishment. They deserve it. Great job folks. read more

Never had a bad meal here, have the best smoked ribs . Food is priced right as well.

went last night for Italian night. awful. lasagna was on the menu but that was the only Italian dish on the italian menu. there is nothing Italian about chicken bacon ranch pasta. Anyway I ordered chicken parm off the regular menu with a posted price $16.95 and requested spaghetti instead of angel hair was told no problem. asked if there were any rolls or italIan bread. Waitress said no but I can butter a piece of white bread if you want. Declined her offer. Meal came out with angel hair instead of spaghetti. Sauce looked and tasted like chef boy a Dee. Bill came and was charged $18.95. Questioned the waitress and said she would find out why. came back and pointed to the bottom of the menu where it said that menu items and prices are subject to change. I understand that but one should be told that the price you see on the menu is not the actual price of the meal. What made it worse was the tone in her voice as she was saying it-very degrading. Last year when we visited they were adding a service charge to the bill which turned out to be a server gratuity but if you didn't check your bill and seen it you would have still left a tip on top of that. I noticed that it was no longer on the bill this time around so there must have been complaints. I won't be going back to this restaurant again. Buyer beware read more

Very disappointed not close to pizza sauce. Very disappointed. They were not close next to a Alexandria Bay we're staying at the Captain Thompson's resort by time we picked it up and came back and cold. Would not recommend going to this place. I never saw anybody mess up pizza it taste like cardboard. read more

Delicious food with fast, friendly service made for a pleasant Saturday night. Just make sure to get there before five, or have reservations. They fill up quickly. The prime rib looked really good, but I opted for the chicken parmesan. It was a huge plate of chicken and cheese and pasta and sauce. And very tasty. We also had the grilled Jack Daniels pork medallions. Also very good. read more

I couldn't actually get food to give a review on that. The service is so horrible that I could barely pay for the one drink I was able to get. The waitress never bothered to to stop by my table after sitting there for 20 mins. Matter of fact she didn't notice me until she saw my cup was empty so I decided to pay and leave. Don't bother this place is a dump, the table was rickety and wobbled all over, and the whole place smelled like a urinal to top it off, I couldn't smell any food. read more

Great friendly place! Drink prices are more then fair and the food is good. So far I've tried the burger, pot roast and the Islander. The burger is really juicy, the veggies fresh and the bun was toasted and very good. All in all a good burger. Oh and the fries, really good fries. The pot roast was very good as well. It was very tender and flavorful. I was not a fan of the mashed potatoes it came with. The Islander was pretty good. There was a good amount of turkey and the bread it was on was great. It was a solid sandwich but I do wish I had ordered a burger instead, I just can't get over it. read more

Prime rib had more fat than meat not good at all , service was turtle speed. I would not waste time or money eating here. Owner was snooty.

Lasagna special was delicious. Fish was very tasty. Enjoyed the experience. We were there after Labor Day and the crowd was minimal. Waitress recommended the Friday night Fish Fry, we will have to try that sometime. read more
