Blueberry Lemon Drop was good, but the Watermelon was my favorite. We also tried the caramel apple and it was good too. For dinner I got the pork tenderloin sandwich with onion rings. Both were delicious and the server said all were made in house. What I loved about the onion rings was the super thick and crunchy beer batter. We also got some sort or chicken bowl that was a lot of food. Came with chips. That's not my particular thing but the person who ordered it loved it. They make all their own dressings and believe me when I tell you the spicy ranch is spicy. I loaded my onion ring up with that ranch and I thought I was going to pass out it was so hot. I still ate it just not as much at one of time. They have plenty of seating at the bar or tables inside and a few outside tables by the street where we saw people take advantage of the nice weather and brought their dogs. They have a small stage where they have live performances, I think someone was coming last night we were just there too early. They have pull tabs for those who are gamblers. The place was really clean and staff were friendly yet busy. Parking can be tricky so be prepared to walk some during peak times.

Let me say from start to finish the staff at Ruoff are amazing. The parking was ran like a well oiled machine. It was clean, tidy and well organized. We upgraded our seats when we first walked in which was amazing because it ended up being 8 hrs long so to have a seat in the pavilion was so good for my back. The variety of entertainment that they have there is quite exceptional. You could see the advertisements for upcoming shows and I was pleasantly surprised. Can't wait to come back. The Outlaw music was out of this world amazing.

First show here this weekend (DMB). The sound and layout are great, the staff I interacted with…read morewere friendly, and the amenities (e.g. food options etc.) are fine. I'll be back for a show in a couple of months and see how that compares. The biggest knock against it is that it is a s**tshow once you get out of a concert. No signage, no layouts, not enough lights along the paths to the different parking lots. Whether you parked or need a rideshare, you're in for a haul. No cell signals. Getting into the show at the start of the night was a bit chaotic too-- we parked in a lot and walked where we were told to when we asked for directions to the west gate (though the staff member had no idea what "west gate" meant, he took his best guess-- and once we got there it read "west gate" in marker along the entryway). This led us into an area near the gate entry bypassing security until someone eventually ushered all of us who had ended up there out to a longer line at a different gate. As fan club members for the band we were supposed to have early entry and our own line, which we eventually did at the last minute as they combed through the GA line to redirect folks. I won't downgrade them for the drink prices though they are predictably outrageous-- $20 a beer and up. I simply stick to the water refill stations in these bigger venues because I never need a beer that bad, and not paying those prices should in time lower them to a reasonable level. Parking is fairly priced ($20 in advance, $25 day of). Plenty of porta potties and some bathrooms. We drove and parked this time, I'm doing rideshare next time--though that looks haphazard because though internet research tells me gate 2A is for rideshare, it's not labelled when the show ends to tell you how to get to that or any gate and you're forced to walk along with the flow of traffic. And getting an uber out of here would be impossible without a cell signal, but I hear there's a walkway to get you out of the general area and into a more populated business area so that's what I will try. TL:DR-- for a mid-sized outdoor venue this one is good to solid, great sound/acoustics. The organization and entrance/exit leave a lot to be desired.

They have always been quick to respond, easy to work with, and inspired plenty of confidence leading up to a show. Highly recommend these guys - they rock!

RougHouse absolutely CRUSHED it at the 2024 Irvington Halloween Ball!…read moreFrom the moment they kicked off their set, the energy was electric, and the crowd was hooked. Their mix of classic rock anthems (and a couple Halloween-themed surprises for the crowd) had everyone dancing and singing along ALL NIGHT LONG! The vocals were powerful, the guitar work was insane, and the rhythm section kept things tight and driving all night. These guys know how to command a room and deliver an engaging performance! Beyond their incredible talent and stage presence, what really stood out was their professionalism. The band showed up early, fully prepared, and worked seamlessly with the event organizers. Setup, soundcheck, and coordination were smooth as could be--they're clearly seasoned pros who know how to handle a big event. For the level of talent and performance they delivered, Roughouse is more than fairly priced. They brought the atmosphere, the energy, and a concert-quality sound! Worth every single penny--and then some. It wasn't just a show--it was a full-blown experience. The themed outfits, the stage presence, the seamless crowd interaction--it all added up to be one of the most memorable and fun Irvington Halloween Balls. If you want a band for a wedding, a corporate event, a Halloween Festival , or anything in between. Look no further!!!! RougHouse brings top-tier musicianship, a professional and hassle-free experience, with tons of fun and energy....5 stars! No question!

We arrived at 5:30 p.m. and were seated immediately and right in front of the musicians. There were no menus for us but the hostess explained she had run out and would return with them. It took several minutes but she did return with them. We realized there was no bar menu at our table so I took the one from a nearby table. After 15 minutes I spoke to a young woman who was bussing the table behind us and told her we had not yet seen a member of the wait staff. She said she would look into it. Five more minutes went by and I stopped the hostess and told her we had not seen a waiter. She said she would look into it. Another five minutes goes by and finally Isaiah stopped at our table, apologized for our wait and took our drink order. He asked if we were there for the band and I said, "No, we are here for dinner." We ordered two Bantams. Finally, at 6 p.m. we left. Our beers never arrived. There was no apology from the hostess and we let the waiting customers know unhappy we were with the service. No one should have to wait for 30 minutes for a beer at a brewery. We were totally ignored by your staff. We will not return.
