I stopped into Rock & Rye for a casual evening and had a decent overall experience. The service was…read morevery good; it was attentive and friendly from the moment I walked in. The atmosphere is very casual and low-key, perfect for grabbing drinks and a bite without any pretense. I ordered a flatbread listed as a Margarita, but it was more like a cheese pizza than a true Margarita. It was still decent, just not what I expected. The online menu did not match what was available at the restaurant, which made ordering a little confusing. On the drink side, the wine selection was underwhelming, but the beer list was solid, and the cocktail menu stood out. They clearly put more focus on mixed drinks. This is not a fine dining destination, but it works well for what it is, a laid-back bar with better-than-average food and a great drink program. I rate it 3.5 stars, but will round up to 4 for the strong service and cocktails. It is a good choice if you're looking for a casual spot downtown with good energy.

I have a gluten allergy and this menu was full of food I could eat which normally I never can! I had the fish and chips. Massive piece of fish and delicious fries. The fish was good, a little underseasoned but I easily fixed that. The fries are the good kind, nice and chunky. Food was delicious. My friend has the special budget of the day and she enjoyed that as well! I will 100% be coming back again and again!

I sampled the following drinks: Pimms Cup Fruity liqueur cut with ginger beer and lemon juice, so doesn't taste too sweet, begs for seconds. Louisiana Express Sweet punch, perhaps too sweet, but the guava plays happily with vodka. Whattamelon Bae Perhaps not always on the menu, but if you're in the mood for an ice cold slurry of watermelon and vodka, lemon and rosemary, you're in luck. Finally, and of course, the vaunted mac and cheese should be on every human's bucket list. Gooey and garlic infused. Cozy, great drinks, great music, there's nothing not to like here.

Can't complain about free! While ordering the free drink, I asked for a menu since I planned on grabbing some dessert. They dropped off the menu and never came back. I'm not the loudest person so I don't try to yell to flag someone down. I tried making contact with the bar tenders, waving my menu, etc and could not get anyone to come back. They checked in with people around me and took 10+ walkup orders, but never came back around to check on me. After 30 minutes of waiting, I gave up and left. The environment was nice. They had several tables located along the windows with good lighting, and the bar was set up fairly comfortably.

This was a day I had planned for…read moremonths with my daughter and future stepdaughter, an important and meaningful occasion, and the experience fell significantly below expectations. In advance, I stopped into the hotel to confirm that a gluten-free guest could be accommodated and was assured this would be handled. In reality, the accommodation was inadequate and, at times, unacceptable. While the rest of us were served scones, my stepdaughter was given cut fruit in their place, and told that was all they had to accommodate.The dessert course consisted of what appeared to be basic gluten-free cookies, misrepresented as something more gourmet - egg nog cookies??? This lack of preparation was both disappointing, upsetting and avoidable. The broader experience was equally concerning. We were subjected to an unsolicited and uncomfortable "lesson" on tea service, which detracted from what should have been a relaxed and celebratory occasion. While trying to enjoy the time with the girls, being a lifelong tea drinker and someone who has been to many times at your establishment and its various incarnations, this is something I have never experienced. The food quality was poor (scones were clearly reheated and stuck to the cloth napkin they were wrapped in), and there were notable service lapses, including being served water in a visibly shattered glass. Additionally, when hot water was added to refresh the tea, my stepdaughter's pot curdled and had to be replaced. It was especially disappointing, as I mentioned that I had stopped in and spoken with the concierge, and was assured, as they had called the kitchen while I stood there that they readily accommodated gluten-free. There are numerous places in the city that could have done this, and if you had just told me that you could not do so, I would have booked us elsewhere. I chose not to raise the multiple issues in the moment so as not to disrupt what was meant to be a special day for the girls and me. However, the total cost exceeded $500, and the experience did not come close to justifying that price point! Do not recommend.
