Our go to spot before any show is Rhythm on Monroe. The food is always exceptional and the service is great. There has been live music sometimes and that is always a nice addition. If you haven't checked out their rooftop bar, put it on your to do list! read more

Started out on the rooftop bar for happy hour. Had a fabulous strawberry lemonade sparkle. Great spot to unwind. They serve food on the rooftop too. We decided to go downstairs to eat in the restaurant. We all enjoyed our food. Live music that was enjoyable. Not so loud we could not talk. Our waitress was attentive. She asked if we were headed to a show. We were so she was great about making sure we had our food and were able to pay without rushing. Have to also mention that the bartender on the roof was super nice also! Great spot to eat if you are seeing something at the Von Braun Center as it is in the complex. Great spot if you are just looking for a great spot to eat downtown! read more

Rhythm On Monroe - Barbecue pork sandwich with fries - American Near Me - Huntsville, Alabama

A cute restaurant tucked away next to VBC. It was hard to find parking, especially since there was an event happening in the arena so plan accordingly and expect to maybe have to walk from a bit further out. Came here with a friends to celebrate a birthday. They were very accommodating to our large group; the service was great. I ordered the platter, which came with a biscuit, 2 eggs any style, choice of meat (I chose sausage), cheesy hash browns or grits, and a side of tomato. The biscuit was amazing! So crispy on the outside but soft on the inside. I wouldn't describe it as biscuit texture but rather a chewy bread texture but I loved it. And the sausage was very flavorful. The few things I did not enjoy were the eggs and the cheesy hash browns. I ordered the eggs over medium and the yolks were cooked/not runny. And the cheesy hash browns were mushy/overdone. And for this, I can't give out 5 stars. But overall a decent meal read more

We've been to Rhythm on Monroe several times. It's been great, it's been not so great, but if you're going to a show at the VBC, the location can't be beat. Service has always been hit or miss. We've learned to give ourselves plenty of time to be seated and served. One thing that remains consistent is the time it takes to get your check. If you're in a hurry, ask for it before you finish eating. Happy hour is 4-6 Sunday through Thursday. Discounts on beer, wine and craft cocktails - a pretty good deal. A few apps are on special too. I ordered the Tupelo Honey margarita. Delicious. So good that I had a second. I ordered the grilled chicken piccata. It was good but really could have used a little more seasoning. My husband ordered the fish and chips - it had quite a bit of excess breading that he pulled off. We usually share a meal but in this case, the dinners really weren't large enough for two people to share. We met some friends for dinner. One ordered the Ruben - good but not in the top 5. The other friend ordered the Rustica Italian pasta with conecuh sausage. She said the pasta was good but the sausage was just thrown in more as an afterthought. We went to another show on Friday and once again, chose Rhythm on Monroe for dinner. This time I ordered a burger and my husband the pulled pork sandwich. The burger was definitely nothing special. The patties had the charcoal grilled flavor reminiscent of a Burger King burger. The pork was huge. My husband liked it but I didn't care for the sauce. He subbed onion rings for the fries - it was an amazingly large serving of rings. I had the fries. They weren't hot when served so I asked for fresh fries. They were good. There are a lot of great restaurants in Huntsville. Rhythm on Monroe is definitely not the best but for location - you can't do much better. read more

I booked this restaurant because it is near the VBC and we were going to a play. The menu pictured here looked like a really good restaurant. I was quite disappointed because the menu is a shadow of its former one. No short ribs, no pork chop, no trout, no steak. What is left is basically a sandwich menu. What we got was ok, but not really worth the price. My Nashville hot chicken sandwich was surprisingly juicy for such a small piece of chicken. So, what we have now is a snack bar charging restaurant prices. Will I come back. Absolutely, you can't beat being close to venue but my expectations will be far lower. read more

We got here around 5 PM. Parking was a little troubling to find but there are a few paid parking lots nearby. Olivia was our server, and she was very cordial and funny. We had quick and polite service. She helped me with ordering a mocktail, and ordered the Pineapple Sunrise. My group ordered the crab dip, but wished there was more crab in there. read more

I was staying across the street and decided to stop by Rhythm for dinner on a weeknight. It was mostly empty with only a couple occupied tables. It also was very cold. It felt like someone wanted the restaurant to be as cold as possible. I ended up sitting at the bar where everything was pleasant. The bartender was very polite. I enjoyed the menu and how they kept with the theatre theme calling out appetizers as "Sound Check" and the soup and salad were "Opening Acts". I was quite charmed. I ended up ordering the Yardbird Jive Club Sandwich which was nice. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the bacon was nice and crisp. The honey mustard wasn't quite enough to bring the elements all together - it was a bit of a dry sandwich - but I also prefer mayo. The whole experience was very pleasant! read more

We have been here before, but I never reviewed. It was brunch and I remember really enjoying what we had. I like the atmosphere - there's a rooftop bar, brunch on weekends, a lot of space for big groups, etc. This night we came before my husbands Christmas party at the VBC. We had a reservation - which may not have been needed as it was very empty for a Friday night. Cocktails: I ordered a mule to start with blood orange, ginger beer, vodka - I enjoyed it! My husband ordered the Bees Knees - gin, lemon, honey We ended the meal with a Espresso Martini - I like mine with more of a creamy texture. This was very light - but had good flavor. Meal: My entrée was the grilled trout (you can get fried) with green beans and herbed potatoes. The trout was fresh but lacked flavor and salt. The green beans tasted like the steam bag of French green beans you can get at Walmart and microwave. I wish the herbed potatoes were mashed potatoes. My husband ordered the chicken piccata. Chicken was grilled and juicy, green beans were the same steamed as I mentioned before, and the mashed potatoes tasted boxed. Not alot of "wow" factor. Overall a very "mid" dinner not great, not terrible. Especially for $25-$30 entrées. Service: Our sever was very attentive, almost too attentive . Every bite we took I felt like he came to the table and asked if we were okay - which I appreciate him doing his job. But I needed a little less checking up on. read more

We went here for dinner before the Rocky Horror Picture Show, and overall, it was just okay for the price. On the positive side, my drinks were good. I started with a Passion in Paradise, which I really enjoyed, then switched to the $7 margaritas that weren't bad at all. I also ordered a Lemon Drop--I thought I was getting a shot, but it turned out to be a martini. (I always assumed it was a shot, so it was a bit more booze than expected!) My friend ordered a Blackberry Mojito, but it was disappointing--you could tell it wasn't muddled, there was no mint, and honestly no blackberry either, just syrup. Definitely not a proper mojito, or at least a lazy one. For food, I got the wings with PB&J sauce. The flavor was great, but I wish they had been saucier; they were a little dry, and I'm someone who likes my wings really coated, not just a hint of sauce. The vibe of the place was great though, and our server was fantastic--though she didn't check on us often enough. That said, I know she was busy since everyone and their uncle seemed to be there before the show. Overall: good atmosphere, good drinks (depending on what you order), and decent food, but a little underwhelming for the price. read more

Erica took care of us before going to BeetleJuice. Live music and a good menu. Had Chicken Piccata with Cesar salad and the Dijon honey glazed pork chops that came with fried Brussels sprouts and grilled parmigiana grits. Ended with a salted caramel bread pudding. All very delicious and served with plenty of time to walk to the theater. If you're going to get a reservation before the show shoot for 1.5 hours prior as they were totally swamped an hour before. read more

The service wasn't the greatest was very slow. We waited about 45 minutes to get our entrees. Went there with my family and everyone else had plain burgers. The burgers seemed like the utilized frozen patties would not recommend on the menu. I had the pork chop and it was great, but have not returned since. The interior of the restaurant was very open, but louder than I would like when eating dinner. read more

Unfortunately, the food didn't quite live up to the setting. I ordered the Caesar salad and was disappointed to find it made with iceberg lettuce. The waitress said they always do it like that. The dressing didn't taste quite right and my shrimp on top or overcooked. The hubs had the wings and said they were good but the sweet potato fries were so overdone. All in all the service and ambience were definitely highlights of our visit. Just wishing the food match the rest of the experience, especially for our special occasion like our anniversary. read more

Excellent food, tremendous service, and a unique atmosphere. This is truly a place to go for an evening out or a nice weekend brunch. There is a fairly extensive menu with a great variety of dishes. The roof top bar was closed, but has a nice view of the city. Great interior and exterior seating. Definitely needs on your list. read more

Sorority sisters and I ate "dinner" at RoM on May 7 before the Judas Priest show at the VBC Arena. We had reservations [their new online reservation system is not Android friendly, so I had to call to make the 530 reservation for 3-not a dealbreaker]. There were intermittent showers that day and we were happy to have an inside reservation. I wanted the chorizo queso dip and our server said, "that's only available on the rooftop." I'm thinking, "you've got one kitchen, it's rainy outside, you have chorizo queso in the kitchen, why not bring us chorizo queso?!" We were about to attend a 3+ hour show and wanted sustenance. What we got was awful! We ordered brussels sprouts, "chicken" nachos, and white cheddar pimento cheese with crackers, carrots and celery. The brussels sprouts were burnt - period. Inedible. We each had two of them to be sure they were burned and our server did not take them off our bill. There are not a lot of spouts on a plate, so I guess eating 6 went over the "we will refund this dish" limit. Which is sad, because he missed a chance to instill a little goodwill in an otherwise miserable dining experience. On to the nachos - in my entire life I have never had such awful chicken, the chicken we feed our cat looks more appetizing than this excuse for chicken. The chicken squares were cold and rock hard, and entirely inedible. They weren't even room temperature! I was running out of patience and could tell the server was over seated. Last time I checked, I'm not in charge of scheduling the servers, so, that's not my problem. Anyway, I stopped him, because, Server 101 is within 90 seconds of delivering meals, the server is supposed to check on the table to ensure everyone is happy with their dishes. He never did this. I stopped him to say, "you never checked on our meals and two of our dishes are terribly inedible." That's when he said he would remove the nachos from the bill but not the brussels. Aren't brussels sprouts fairly cheap? It wasn't like he was potentially comping some Wagu steak. Because we were starving, friend ordered the southwestern egg rolls. This is a long-time standard bar dish, that I'm pretty sure it is not house made. It was remarkably forgettable. The best parts of dinner were the scoop of pimento cheese [even the celery was bad, it was old and limp-ish] and the water. No manager checked on us, and I regret spending time and money here. Serving food that is inedible is completely unacceptable and staff who could care less don't need to be in the service and hospitality business. A restaurant with no Manager on Duty checking on tables is a MOD who doesn't care either. read more

I had the pulled pork sandwich with shoestring fries. Honestly this was just an average bbq sandwich. Smoke flavor was weak and not real strong. Meat flavor was bland. The bbq sauce was more tomato paste with a strong vinegar flavor than anything else. Cole slaw was to be placed on the sandwich, I asked for it on the side. Sadly this was Kia shaved cabbage with no sauce, if there was dressing on it, it was just a splash. The shoestring fries were batter and clumped together, so over all - should have ordered the pork chop that I saw go by to another table. I heard it was very tender and tasty. And the size of it, it was not a pork chop, it was a pork steak. Lesson learned here. Service for the evening was not great. This person was more focused on another table than any other table he was to be serving. Had to ask way too many times to get something or have more drinks. As far as decor, average warehouse look to it. Did not make it to the roof top bar, but A/C felt better on this evening!!!! Maybe better next time. read more

I ordered the shrimp and grits to which I asked them not to put any meat in the bag avoid it. The first place that was brought to me had me quite a few large chunks, which I didn't mind removing myself, but the server said she would ask them to Redo. So when I got my second plate the food was cold. I was a bit disappointed because I expected after waiting again, it would be hot. I would not recommend the sweet potato fries unless you tell them to fry it hard. Because they are served in such big chunks. It's not completely cooked to a fry liking on the inside. It was very soggy and I didn't finish them. read more

We dined at Rhythm for the first time in celebration of our anniversary. We parked conveniently in the small lot in from of the VBC and were promptly seated for our reservation. The open-air, modern atmosphere was inviting, and we enjoyed a perfect variety of live music throughout our meal. Our waitress was wonderful - incredibly hospitable and accommodating with us having an infant tagging along with us for dinner. We had a nacho appetizer that was delicious and a great portion size. The filet and chicken that we ordered as entrees were excellent, as we were treated to a complementary crème brûlée for dessert in celebration of our big day. read more

Staying in the Embassy Suites for a conference. We were tired from traveling and I saw this restaurant was in the attached convention center on Yelp. So we decided to try it. We both got the pecan crusted trout and a creme brulee. The trout, while fried, was a nice sized portion and was flavorful. The roasted string beans were crunchy and lightly seasoned and the the roasted potatoes were good too. The cream sauce on the fish was a great accompaniment to the fish and the sides. The crème brulee was excellent! One of the best I've had. Wasn't overly sweet with a great texture. Service was good despite them seeming short staffed. They had a gentleman playing and singing. His music choice was varied and added to the atmosphere. We enjoyed our visit! read more

Great variety of menu choices, even for the pickiest eaters. Prices are reasonable for the quality and location. However, the greatest strength here is the staff. Across the board, everyone from hosts, to cooks, servers and management is as close to perfect as you can get anywhere. You will be pleased, period. If something isn't to your satisfaction, you WILL have satisfaction. read more

Poor service and total lack of any "rhythm" in this place. Our server "Kaitlyn" wandered around our table after waiting for 15 mins. She seemed least interested in doing anything. Place was 3/4ths empty on Sunday! This place takes "Lazy Sunday" to the next level! Firm pass. Will not be coming again. read more

I've been wanting to go visit Rhythm On Monroe for quite some time now. I finally had the opportunity when I attended the Brink Universe Lego Fan Expo. The restaurant's main dining area was beautiful and I love that it was so specious and they didn't over crowd the tables. The glass windows were nice and allowed you to people watch throughout the restaurant. Service was good. My server was attentive but wasn't personable. She also seemed to be covering a large section. It wasn't bad service but it wasn't stellar either. The food was great! I enjoyed most some better than others. I wasn't too keen on the roasted potatoes as they lacked seasoning especially the rosemary which was why I ordered them. The cheddar grits also lacked seasoning and flavor. It was very bland even with the cheese. It would have made it better if it had shredded cheddar and bacon on top. My sausage links were good, wished it was cooked a little bit longer. The eggs bennie were great, I actually really liked them and they were cooked perfectly. The bread/biscuits were also very good. The brioche French toast was amazing! I absolutely loved it and will come back just for that. I loved everything about it. It was flaky yet soft and enjoyed the syrup and berry butter. My mimosa was okay. Nothing to exciting. I definitely enjoyed eating here and will be back to sample more of their foods. read more

WOW! What a disappointing evening?! All due to our server Jordan. He was absolutely horrible. Everything was either late, wrong, or both. We had reservations for three at 5:45. We were seated and 10 minutes later Jordan finally makes his appearance. We ordered drinks and an appetizer. The kitchen server brought our food promptly. However, it was another 10 minutes before Jordan shows up with the drinks of which mine was wrong. It had the resemblance of a dry martini; it was clear with olives and that was all. When he brought our drinks, we ordered dinner. When dinner came, we ordered more drinks. A few minutes later one of the drinks arrived, 5-10 minutes later one more arrived, 25 minutes later, Jordan comes by to see if everything was alright. I informed him that I had ordered another drink, which hadn't arrived. He said and I quote, "they are working on it." I called BS and asked him if he wouldn't mind, "go to the bar and get my drink, NOW." BTW, the food was very good. To the manager, get more staff, but this time get competent staff. read more

Hmm I really wanted to like this place, but I didn't. I asked if they had a frozen margarita and the waitress told me a frozen margarita was a real margarita. Well it is in Texas. Nevertheless I took one on the rocks. Well guess what? They don't know how to make a REAL margarita on the rocks. It sucked. I was told the peach cobbler was delicious. I didn't know peach cobbler in Alabama did have juice in it. It comes with dried peaches with a nice flaky crust on top. The crust wasn't bad at all. The Caesar salad and the live music was good! The food, not so much. read more

Was in Huntsville for business on Valentine's Day and came here because most other places said they had no reservations available on the same day. They had a live musician singing. The hostess wasn't very friendly but the waiter was. He was great. Friendly and attentive. The crab dip was really good. Very creamy, seasoned well and the chips very crunchy. The roasted red pepper soup was just ok. It wasn't flavorful and was kind of bland. The pork chop and brussel sprouts were great but the winner was the blueberry bread pudding. That was delicious! read more

My group is from VA, we ate C/O the first night, located in the Embassy Suites. I made reservations for my party of 9, then cancelled (for convenience to eat at C/O again) and I called back to request a party of 8. The GM was professional and so accommodating and welcomed my group w open arms. The wings were great, Brussel sprouts were my favorite, crab dip and I had a salad w tuna. Thank you! Service was amazing and so was the food! We were being indecisive as a group but glad we had the opportunity to dine at Rhythm! read more

Cool place. Roof top was nice but it was way to hot so we stayed downstairs. I will check it out next trip. The food was great and the servers were awesome. You can walk from Embassy Suites and.never have to go outside if bad weather. 10-12 minute walk. Great selection of drinks and dinning options from something light to something a little heavier. Very casual and classy at the same time. Yes you should go here. We were a party of 4 on a Friday night. Jim's true rating. 4.5 stars read more

We came in for reservations before our concert. We were sat immediately and greeted. Our server Jasmine was fantastic as well as the busser Michael was on it and very friendly. We ordered are dinner and drinks and never went without. Food was okay nothing to rave about. The restaurant was clean and had great lighting with all the windows. Afterwards we went to roof top bar which was not well staffed. We waited at bar but was told by bartender the tables and chairs had service. We sat at the overlook and ordered a drink after 45 min of not receiving it we left. They need more staff on the rooftop. read more

Made reservations for 3 for a Saturday afternoon, no wait. First the atmosphere: bright, sophisticated, cool, trendy. They have rooftop and outside dining. We dined outside. Wanted to try to the rooftop but it was too hot, as we were told by the hostess that there is not a lot of shade. Now the fun stuff. They have what they call "jam session" which is their happy hour, 4-6pm daily with drinks and app $2-3 off. Started with brussel sprouts and headbanger shrimp, DELICIOUS. The only thing I disliked was the marinated slaw that the shrimp sits on, too much vinegar. Entrees ordered: filet w/asparagus and roasted potatoes, short rib pasta, and chicken tacos. Everything was good except the chicken tacos, chicken was dry. Shout out to Lexie our server; she was great and very attentive. She was patient with us and answered all of our questions regarding the menu as this was our first time. All in all, I highly recommend and will return when I'm in the area. read more

Good food and nice environment. Don't miss the rooftop bar! Staff was speedy and professional.

Second time coming here. We came in to get our craft cocktail card stamped before seeing Cats. Their rooftop was closed and there was really no place to just grab a drink. A little inconvenient for being part of the cocktail trail. We found 1 chair at the bar finally and we're able to order drinks. I got the sparking strawberry lemonade and my husband got the monkeynaut IPA. read more

This is such a cute place and a great addition to downtown Huntsville. I went during "happy hour" where all the appetizers and drinks were discounted. I think it was $2-3 off. I bought the mule (forgot the exact name of it) and it was excellent. Loved the taste, you could barely tell that there was alcohol in it. I also got the chicken wings & fries, and they were standard wings lol. Good, but not to die over. I would definitely get them again. My friend had the nachos. They don't look like your typical nachos, but she liked them and ate the whole place. Beautiful view and nice staff. read more
