I was not impressed!! The hamburger was very bland and the fries was cold!! Never again!! The waitress was very nice but when we complained that the fries were cold she just never came back. There was a good amount of food but like I said not good at all. read more

Could not get anyone's attention. Horrible service. the first waiter, who I asked "where do I sit?", pointed at the empty hostess station and said "talk to the hostess". Once seated, I noticed that the second waiter made eye contact twice, but then apparently ignored me because it was either not his turn or I was not in his zone. I gave the hostess a chance to retrieve my designated order taking dude, but after 3 minutes of him bit showing, I gave up. this seems like a lot if customer-ignoring hoops to jump through for a meal when there are only 8 people in the restaurant. So I left and went to the next place on the list - Sonic. I wish I had read reviews from the last couple of weeks before wasting 20 minutes here. read more

Service we received was great. The food is sub par. Not great and not bad. Its a little bland for my liking. Its a little to pricey for okay food in my opinion. Charging high prices in an area that has nothing else so no competition allows them to do that. This place is attached to a hotel. Live music on weekends. The entertainment for our night was not good. But I don't think you can blame the restaurant for that. They don't appear to be very busy so maybe thats why? read more

This place was awesome! Best dinner I've had in this part of Ohio! Excellent prime rib, good service, couldn't ask for anything better!

Arrived on a Friday night and this place was hopping. Met by friendly host who took our name down and quoted a 30 minute wait. Headed to the bar to grab a drink while we were waiting. I didn't catch the bartenders name who served us but he was nice friendly and helpful. After grabbing a drink we checked out all the decor & that 30 minutes flew by. Got sat in a booth in a corner and had a friendly and fun server, Victoria. We ordered the wings as a appetizer, the Mac & cheese, beer cheese burger, and the seafood buffet. Dev at the sea buffet was working hard! He did a great job. All of the food was great! Mac and cheese was full of flavor. Really no complaints at all with the food. We'll be back! read more

Ralph's American Grill - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Wilmington, Ohio

Not a large menu and limited options. The fish was good, plenty of fries. Coleslaw was excellent. Mostly average food with higher than average pricing. Service was poor, slow, and felt ignored with only a half dozen customers in the place. Nicely decorated and clean. read more

Great food and service! The Roadhouse salad was great with their house made ranch! Also got the Nashville chicken and it was great! Will be back! read more

Great lunch salad bar! I'm a travelling salesman and have seen Ralph's from the highway many times and never stopped. Glad I did today. I opted for the soup and salad bar- great homemade soup (I had tomato Basil- but the chili looked great too) plus a salad bar with ham salad, chicken salad, cottage cheese and huge chucks of ham, chicken and Turkey to make a killer salad. Really good, quick lunch with great service. Dessert too! read more

The food is not that great, and their sides are awful. I think they need a new manager and get more stuff on the menu that is a lot better tasting food. read more

Burger was bland French fries were not warm. Meals were just not great. Service was ok.

Half way between Cincy/Columbus. Nice atmosphere for being out in the country. Located in the parking lot of I71 near the Roberts Conf center. Food was a bit slow to come out. Ordered a hot dog and fries for lunch. Will go back for sure. read more

Fish was not that good but the pretzels and tater tot things were good. The staff gave us refills and came to check on us. The seats were uncomfortable but I can see why because it's made out of hard materials and the building is very nice. Overall this was a great experience and I would gladly come again. They also have free crosses at the front. read more

We dined at Ralph's American Grill Tonight. We took some family there for a Christmas celebration. We had the prime rib buffet. We were so excited to visit Ralphs for the first time. The food on the buffet was adequate at best. The prime rib was under seasoned and tough to chew. The service was poor. It seems as if there wasn't enough staff to service the tables. When the drink order was finally taken it took 45 minutes to get my draft beer with an orange slice. The beer was served in a bottle with a lime stuck in it and the beer was lukewarm. I left a $5 beer sitting on the table. We have families and friends that want to go there for dinner. Unfortunately we will not be giving a positive review. read more

First time since the closed Max & Ermas and reopened as Ralph's. Had fish and chips and west coast Rueben. Both really good! Will definitely stop again. read more

It was a great experience. Saw the sign and went for breakfast. Service was great, even with one server until help arrived. Food was good although not quite up to temp off the buffet. They have breakfast buffets on weekends and dinner buffets on Friday and Saturday night. We had breakfast. Decor is awesome. Owned by one of the largest corporations in Ohio. Glad they renovated this to their own brand. Hopefully the entire mall can be revitalized. read more

All-U-can-eat Prime Rib on Saturday is a decent deal at $29.99 but be advised it's a cheaper cut, kinda tough, even the rarest section.

I hate to give this review, I will though. After a long day of driving we made had reservations at the Holiday Inn in Wilmington Ohio. A beautiful hotel with what looked a great bar/restaurant. Perfect I thought. After being seated I asked for a hard seltzer black cherry in flavor. The young boy waiting on us said he would check to see if they had it. No I then asked Peach crown in their FULL BAR. He checks , No they don't have that. My husband points out that it says they have hard seltzer on the menu. I settled on a Angry Orchard. I'll shorten this up there is A LOT. After 3 gentlemen spoke to us and 30 minutes I still did not have a drink. Our flat bread showed up and still no Angry Orchard and a manager said he had to run over to another cooler to see if they had it! Are you kidding me we asked for our bill. Never touched the flat bread and my husband's ice tea one sip gone. We paid for our bill took down all the names of the people we talked to. Also had to wait while they took the Angry orchard off our bill. So what I thought was a good thing SUCKED . I left with a headache and our night ruined. read more

Very cool decor and very clean. We went on a Sunday afternoon and as large as the place is, and there were other parties in the restaurant, it was not very noisy. Service was very good. Unfortunately the food was just okay. A few of us got the buffet bar. Cold food was very fresh. The warm items were okay. Just not very hot. Pastries were dry. One of our party ordered a pasta dish. The shrimp topping the dish were hot but the underlying pasta was cold. The burger was good and the bbq Mac and cheese pasty. It's a very nice place. Newly redecorated and bright. The food was just okay is the reason for 3 stars. read more

Good service , the food was outstanding! I had the ribs and they were fall off the bone delicious, with homemade style coleslaw & the fires were seasoned perfectly, the wife had the fish & chips with the coleslaw & fries They have a well rounded menu and on Saturday night have a prime rib buffet, very tastefully decorated with some really cool display items . Well worth the trip out to Robert's Center in Wilmington read more

The food, service and atmosphere are all top notch. Their special event buffets are truly fantastic - especially enjoyed the NYE one. We've been several times and have always had a great experience. read more

Great place relaxing atmosphere, The food was very good my wife and I shared the full rack of ribs. Service was very prompt, The staff was very courteous and helpful. We will definitely be back. read more

Fries were excellent. Hamburger was awful. Never going back. Staff was friendly. Bathroom was clean. Felt ill after eating hamburger. Really overpriced. read more

So disappointed in this place. Despite the glowing reviews, this place did not measure up. Service was slow despite one other couple in the place. My Mac and cheese lacked cheese flavor, fried pickles on top were cold and chewy, and the Nashville hot chicken breast I added on top was so greasy. Dripping with grease. Maybe it had re-fried to heat up? Didn't finished and later tossed the take away portion cause there was no redeeming it. My spouse's burger was just ok- putting aioli sauce on a party does -Not Make It A Signature Burger- hardly worth the price tag here. The whole trucker- trucking industry theme was a joke- this is a hotel restaurant. Not a destination. Enough said.. read more

Great food. Live music the Friday we were here. Service was awesome. Highly recommend.

Ralph's is a great place to stop, fun to look around at all the memorabilia. Service & food were fantastic, shout out to Kelly, she took great care of us. read more

food tastes great! service was so fun and waitress was amazing!!!! got the pulled pork Mac omg the best! read more

After reading the previous reviews I was skeptical about this place. HOWEVER!!!! This place is complete DELICIOUSNESS!!!! I'm not sure what was here before now, but in talking to the great staff, I was told Ralph's American Grill has only been here since November 2022 so reviews prior to then should be disregarded! The restaurant is casual with an industrial-garage vibe tipping the hat to the local trucking industry. (If you've ever been to a Ford's Garage to eat, it's a similar fun vibe!) On Friday and Saturday's they have a buffet. Being today is dinner time on a Friday, we had the Italian buffet with a made to order pasta bar, ice cold salad bar, soup, breads, and 3 desserts, with a drink included. On Saturdays they have a prime rib buffet. There were a couple tables around us that ordered off the menu and ALL of them gave nothing but excellent reviews. One couple ordered a slice of carrot cake for dessert and it was so big that they took home 1/2 of it after eating as much as they could! Definitely recommend 10/10!!!!! Go! read more

Keep driving. Very slow. Ordered a Corona and mimosa. Got the beer and 20 minutes later got the mimosa. Decided to leave

$61 pre tip for short ribs dinner, burger, pretzel sticks, water and lemonade. Unfortunately the short ribs dinner only had one short rib but plenty of carrots and celery for a side. Waitress was nice, didn't get mushrooms added to the burger though. As for the burger it was dry and well done. Place is clean and good atmosphere. Waitress also stated that they are revamping liquor menu since they are often out of drinks. Moral of the story, over priced for what we received. Will likely not be back which is unfortunate because not many restaurants are in this area. read more

Really great place! We were here for a Trade Show, so we had several meals at Ralph's, breakfast, lunch and dinner for three days. Usually, I get kind of irritated at eating at the same restaurant three meals a day for three days, but Ralph's was great. They have a very large menu, so you can really mix it up, especially with their salad bar for lunches, and then buffets for Friday and Saturday night. It was really good. and reasonably priced. Service was snappy. Management was very attentive. The general manager stopped by one night just to say hello and make sure everything was good. I totally recommend it. read more

Service was ok. Food was ok and priced reasonably. One problem I see is the presentation of the food. Much of the food is served on a metallic baking type pan with a paper liner. We'll if your food like a burger needs cut or the moisture from the food soaks into the paper there's a good chance you could be eating bits of paper. The next time I eat there I will definitely ask for my food to be on glass type of plates read more

First time here. Great food and service! Definitely will be back! We had the flat iron steak and fish and chips. Large portions and great price. read more

Over priced mediocre food. Poor layout as there is a glass display wall of whiskey bottles that blocks the free flow of customers and forces most customers past the anyone sitting near the display wall as they enter and exit. It seems like Ralph's has similar fare to the Max and Erma's it used to be, but with greatly increased prices. The old race car on display is odd except that R&L's headquarters is nearby (R&L Racing). The pulled pork sandwich was served on toast with a slice of cheese, odd. The FF's reminded me of the old Burger King fries, that years ago, every one made fun of. read more

Loved it! The pretzel appetizer was amazing and it was a fun and casual place to eat with amazing service. We will go back again soon!!!
