We just came here for a couple of drinks, but the BBQ coming out looked and smelled delicious! They had a drink special going when we were here for moonshine in a cool glass cup that you got to keep. The bartenders were friendly and very attentive. They were playing country music and the servers had to dance when certain songs came on. read more

Food was pretty decent, got rushed out of the rooster due to an event happening at 10pm which was a bummer. Chicken sandwich was very good. Ambience was not too loud. read more

Ok place serving mid bbq but don't go late they basically kick you out at 10 pm due to it turning into a country nightclub with live music and line dancing, they literally asked us to get up from our table say they could clear the dance floor which I thought was kind of rude, they shouldn't have sat us there in the first place as we arrived at 9 pm and it was a party of 6 which usually takes a little more than an hour. So we didn't get desert or another round of drinks we just left read more

I usually love coming here for line dancing, but my experience last night was unacceptable. I showed my ID at the door as always, but about an hour later, in the middle of the dance lesson, I was pulled out of the class and told to show my ID again to the night manager. He spent several minutes bending and shining a flashlight on every inch of it, asking me for my address and ZIP code in front of everyone. I'm 26 -- I may look young, but this was humiliating, not flattering. What made it worse was how rude the night manager was. He offered no explanation, just "I'm doing my job." Shortly after, my friend was also pulled out for the same thing, even though neither of us had been drinking. If they want to be more thorough, they should use the ID scanner (that they say they have) at the door instead of interrupting people in the middle of a lesson and treating them like suspects. Really disappointing experience. read more

Two months ago, when I made a hotel booking at the Turning Stone Resort and Casino, I had made dinner reservations at their upscale restaurant-Wildflowers and asked for a window table overlooking the gardens. When my guest and I arrived we were told that there was only one window table available and it was set up for four people but we could wait until a table for two became available. UNBELIEVABLE! What's the sense of making a reservation. ! I'm sure this restaurant treats its more important guests much, much better but for the average person it's just spend your money and leave asap. read more

Good bbq at a decent price. Sometimes the servers line dance & there is a cover to go in at night. Seems like a good place for night life in addition to good bbq & sides. read more

This resteraunt is decent. I will start with the bad. We got seated and we got our drinks. The place was pretty packed but not to the point where we should have waited 40 minutes to get food. The waitress was nice. The food came out eventually and it was pretty good but not good enough to the point where it makes up for the wait time. If you find yourself at Turning Stone I would recommend Emerald or Wicked Good. read more

My last visit here had me craving pork ribs after an amazing meal of smoked brisket. Tonight, Tin Rooster overdelivered on flavor and panache. Meal began with an incredible cocktail with Spirit Bomb, a spiced whiskey (think Captain, Jameson, and Jager having a baby) with ginger beer and lemonade - surreal cocktail at an amazing price $7! I ordered the 3/4 rack of ribs which were smoked to perfection with the right amount of pink and char. Mashed potatoes and gravy came along side (there are eight sides to choose from), plus charred corn cornbread which is super addictive! The plate was completed with some spicy pickles which were refreshing and amazing. Service was on point from Jesse and Lacey, and they take Covid precautions seriously - each of them changed their gloves no fewer than six times during my one hour visit. Amazing experience, great food, superb cocktail, can't wait to come back! read more

The food was average and I would say the corn muffin was better than average. The biggest issue is the wait to get food, over 45 minutes to get items that they most likely all had cooked already and nothing made to order. The saving grace was that we put the kid orders in as soon as we arrived so they werent starving and waiting too. Additionally one person in our group ordered mashed potatoes as a side and recieved cheesy corn instead, however we didnt dare to bring it to the waitstaff attention due to assuming it would have been an extra 30 minutes to resolve. read more

Came here with friends and did not like it. The ambience and service is really good. But the food was a no no for me. Everything tasted like Cole slaw for me. My husband got the platter it was okay. Not that special. read more

Good food , large portions and excellent service . Loved the atmosphere and I thought prices were more then reasonable.

Yeeee hawwww! We make it up here once a year for an annual professional development conference, and once the day's sessions were over, we were pleased to discover some welcome additions to Turning Stone's entertainment options. Tin Rooster is a venue that's part of Turning Stone's new "EXIT 33" hub - a collection of differently-themed bars and restaurants that also includes 80s/90s rock hall, "The Gig," burlesque-themed dueling piano bar lounge, "Turquoise Tiger," and the centrally-located "Atrium Bar" in the middle of it all. The existing "Lava Nightclub" has also been bundled into the new "EXIT 33." Tin Rooster is a cover charge-free massive space inside of a barnyard, with vaulted ceilings, lots of exposed wood beams, sit-down seating in the back, a big dance floor, and - oh yeah...plenty of live and DJ country music, covers, remixes and mashups! Their food menu consists of the predictable brisket, mac & cheese, sliders, wings, etc. I sampled a pulled pork sandwich and it was awesome! Priced under $10, that's a pretty sweet deal especially considering this is a casino venue. Bartenders are a mixed bag - Mostly young guys and coyote-ugly esque girls (who know nothing except how to perfectly knot their plaid shirts above their belly buttons). The coolest thing about Tin Rooster though...The men's room! Head inside and you'll see some kegs carved like pumpkins into perfectly-functioning urinals. By the sinks, there's bar soaps threaded through steel rods...funny how everything contributes to the overall image. The men's room is tucked away to the left of the stage (as you're facing it) - it's a bit tricky to find without asking (or reading the last sentence I just wrote) All in all, Tin Rooster is a solid joint for those who want the high energy and dancing, but in more casual form than Lava Nightclub. read more

The Tin Rooster is my favorite bar in CNY. If you LOVE country music this is the bar for you!!! They have live country bands playing on the weekends from 10pm-1ish. It's always a good time and the crowd is usually a mix of all ages, kinda reminds me of a wedding :-P. There's two large bars so it's pretty easy to get a drink unless it's packed. I took away one star because the beer always tastes watered down here... And they put SO much ice in a mixed drink and barely any liquor. Be prepared to pay $8 for a mixed drink in the smallest cup you'll ever see in your life. It's almost impossible to get a buzz here without spending around $60 and I'm a lightweight so what does that tell ya. The Tin Rooster also serves food until 10pm. I always get the same thing when I come... The pulled pork sandwich with Mac & cheese on the side. It comes with jalapeño coleslaw and pickles. All I can say is if you plan on eating here, COME HUNGRY!! The portions are huge. The amount of pulled pork on that sandwich was ridiculous. The food is pretty good here, not the best BBQ I've had but it's worth coming back. The pulled pork doesn't really have much flavor but I smother it with the sweet BBQ sauce and it's perfect. I'm not a fan of the coleslaw either. The mac&cheese is something you HAVE to try... It's literally the best Mac&cheese I've ever had. My favorite thing about the tin rooster is you are literally in a BARN and they play country music on the big screen while you eat. What's better than jamming to country music while eating BBQ?! Uhhhh... nothing!!! The atmosphere is so awesome here. Whoever designed this bar did an amazing job. If you're at the turning stone definitely check it out, if you like country music you will love it!!! read more

Within the Turning Stone Casino complex are several dining and entertainment facilities. One that we chose to visit was the Tin Rooster. It is a country western venue that looks like a barn from the outside (enclosed courtyard/atrium) and has a pair of wooden stairs that you climb to the second level to enter. I'm sure there is an elevator also. We were there at dinner time on a Wednesday when free line dancing lessons were also being offered. You feel like you are in a very large rustic barn with two bars, a dance floor, dining tables, western paraphernalia like saddles hanging from the ceiling, and oddly enough, a small travel trailer camper that looks like it can be reserved for privacy with a few tables and chairs outside its door. The draft beer selection is not overly broad; we started with pints of Dogfish Head 60 Minutes and Guinness ($4.60/pt). With the casino located at Exit 33 of the NYS Thruway, I decided to order their 33 Burger ($15) - a hand formed patty topped with smoked pork belly, pepper jack, onions, house pickles, BBQ 1000 island dressing, and a mountain of shredded lettuce. I had requested medium-rare and that's exactly how it was served. Other than the issue of having to really squash down the lettuce which also kept falling out, it was a very flavorful burger. The toasted brioche roll added nice texture and was quite tasty too. As a side I ordered the Burnt End Baked Beans and they had a wonderful smoky flavor. The hand cut fries served with both of our meals were very good. My wife's dinner was that night's Sandwich Special ($12) that was basically a BLT on Texas toast. It was good, but not anything out of the ordinary other than the extra thick slices of toast. I was intrigued by the Sweet Potato Doughnuts ($5) on the desert menu. So I ordered them. Five golf ball sized orbs with a warm honey dipping sauce. Not too heavy in texture and only a light sweet potato flavor, I probably wouldn't rush to order them again. read more

Overall we have loved the entertainment and the food. Of course there's a cover charge to get in 10.00 Pp , but the drinks were a bit pricey. One high noon and a single crown apple on the rocks 20.50. Those prices are like the bars in Nashville and you don't have to pay to get into those places. One round was enough for us. read more

I don't recommend the tin rooster. We got the tailgate for two. It wasn't good at all. The brisket was all fat, the smoked kielbasa tasted like a cheap ring bologna, the ribs were tough ( we had to use a knife to cut them) the Chicken was over cooked, and the cornbread was dry, they didn't provide butter for it. And we never saw our waitress to ask for some. Over priced, terrible food, and terrible service. Avoid this place. read more

Should have read the reviews here first and not gone to the Tin Rooster. My spouse & I decided to give the Tin Rooster a try. Food was so, so. Not sure why all the great reviews have been posted here and to other review boards. They had an all you can eat Baby Back Ribs ($19.95) special vs Half * $15 | Whole Rack * $24 so no brainier. Came with corn bread which I passed on and Burnt End Baked Beans, terrible left them over told server they were bad news, still asked me if I wanted to pack them to go with spouses leftovers, guess he didn't hear me complain. The Baby Back Ribs were acceptable to eat but WOULD NEVER order them again. Had to use their mustard sauce for flavor. Spouse had their Beef Short Ribs * $19, they were ok but again would not order them again. Now for the good stuff - House Salad(Mixed Greens, Tomato, Corn Bread Croutons, Buttermilk Ranch * $7) was great enough to share and at $7.00 you want to share it.Salt Potatoes side at $5.00 was very good, came hot and tasty. Red Sangria some of the best around. They push the sides at $5.00 each everything is ala carte. Service was good, Executive staff kept checking on us and every other table. Total bill with Happy Hour special drafts ($2.76) and wine(3.68) (1 each) over $70.00 with tip. read more

Very good food enjoy the smoked turkey and cornbread. Hush puppies were OK, I've had better? Not sure why every BBQ place I've visited in the northeast has such small portions, where most in the south are so much more generous. Well the tin rooster is no exception food is good portions are smaller than most but it's worth tryjng read more

This is one of the best bbq in New York! This is my first time at the restaurant. The restaurant/dancehall is located in Turning Stone casino and Resort. The decor is country theme with 2 bars, a performance stage and music videos playing on the large screens on the walls! The service was quick and this is very family friendly restaurant. The food is delicious and comes out super quick! The poutine is delicious and is big enough for a meal! The fries are perfectly salted, smothered in gravy, cheese and tender briskets pieces! yumm a must try! The sampler appetizer is perfect if you want a little bit of everything for your first visit. It came with fried pickles, dry rub chicken wings, pork stuffed jalapeño poppers and two pulled pork sliders! Delicious food, would definitely recommend this restaurant! read more

Went to a tasting here tonight. obviously not the whole menu but a buffet. Excellent salad, very good roast potatoes, wings a little soggy but tasty nonetheless and good pulled pork. Not exactly fine dining but if you're at t.s., it's OK but by no means the best of this style of food. read more

The Tin Rooster is a solid BBQ restaurant located in the Turning Stone Casino. First, the biggest complaint I have is the service. The food took almost an hour and there was no else in the restaurant. Also, the waitress was snotty and extremely rude. I don't understand it, you would think people want a tip. She acted annoyed the entire time and was upset when people were not ready to order. Anyways I ordered the two meats with two sides. I went with ribs and brisket with fries and Mac and cheese. The ribs were solid, they were tender and had lots of meat on the bone. The brisket was flavorful, but a little overcooked. The fries were just plain generic fries, that needed lots of ketchup. The cornbread was flavorful, but a bit dry. The Mac and cheese was probably my favorite part, it was creamy and the breadcrumbs added a nice crunch. To sum it up, the Tin Rooster has solid food, but the service was horrendous. read more

We all had a great time and got our drink on. The food was excellent, the beers were ice cold and the music was hot!!! We Couldn't have asked for a better night! read more

Best brisket I've ever had. Chicken was moist and tasty. We were a large party so they gave the hard sell on the family style dining. I mean hard. As a light eater I certainly did not eat my monies worth. If you like to eat piles of food it's a bargain. If not order off the regular menu. Would I go back? I certainly would. read more

My husband and I met up with a friend at the Tin Rooster on a Thursday night. Although it was all you can eat rib night, we opted for other entrees instead. I had the Pit Master which was beef ribs, brisket and kielbasa with two sides. All were very good and the portion was so big I took half home. My husband had the chili and a smoked turkey sandwich. He said both were tasty as was the pork platter that our friend had. I sampled his mac and cheese and cheesy corn sides - both very tasty! The restaurant itself looks like a barn but that's the whole point - reminded me of a Texas road house (the real thing, not the restaurant). They were giving line dancing lessons by the end time we left which were fun to watch. One of the other reviewers mentioned Toby Keith's - the only similarity that I saw was that every half hour or so the wait staff rushes to the dance floor to do a quick number. Very cheesy and definitely something they could do without. Overall good food and good fun - we'll be back! read more

Smoked Turkey & Brisket was decent, salted potatoes were good, corn on the cob was average. Sweet tea was average. Overall, it's acceptable overall. Nothing amazing, but a safe bet it seems. Average value. read more

This was our first time visiting here. The wait was about an hour on a Saturday night, so we sat at the bar while we waited. We enjoyed the atmosphere and line dance routines... Our waitress was okay, not bad but forgettable. The place was clearly very busy so food and drinks did take a long time, but the food was very good. I had the pulled pork grill cheese, and I loved the pickles on the plate almost as much as the sandwich. We would definitely go back next time we are at the casino. read more

My daughter and I each ordered the 1/2# pulled pork platter, but when our food came out pulled pork sandwiches were placed in front of us. When I stated this was not what we ordered the waitress said she would check with the chef and left the food in front of us. She came back and said the chef had told her it was the same thing. It was obviously not the same thing, but I removed the bun and ate it not wanting to create a fuss fully expecting when the bill came we would be charged for the lower priced sandwich. Nope, we were charged for the platter. I complained and she changed the bill. First time in a restaurant I was basically told it's not what you ordered, but close enough. read more

The food rates an easy 4 stars. This was out second time here, and the wait staff deserves a 1 star rating. Our waitress was a girl named Summer. Absolutely horrible! We ordered the tailgate for 2. It comes with a bunch of pulled pork, 3 slices of briket, a chicken breast, a piece of sausage, a half rack of spare ribs, a boneless rib?, and 2 beef ribs that weren't even worth putting in the bucket. It's all smoked quite well. Comes with 2 sides also. 2 people will be challenged to finish it. I love to eat, and there's just no way we could finish it. That's why we order it. Leftovers. Ok, so here's the deal with the staff. Our waitress took forever getting to us when there were very few tables and many waitresses. Took about 40 minutes for everybody to get their food. Our waitress never checked on us, so we sat there with no drinks. When we finally did get food, my sister in law who had ordered fried chicken took a bite and but into bloody chicken. When she complained, she was told it was the smoke ring. Had to remind the waitress that it was fried, not smoked. So they took her plate in order to replace it. About 20 minutes later the manager came and asked how things were. We told him about the chicken being raw. To which his response was (it's a smoke ring). Even the manager needed to be reminded that it was deep fried chicken. She never even got an apology . Her food showed up shortly after we ate a leisurely meal. We did get to see our waitress spill mashed potatoes and gravy down the front of another diner. After we left, my brother looked at both receipts and noticed that he was only charged about five bucks for about a $ 50.00 meal. Our receipt reflected a price that we can't figure out. It was about $11.00 less than it should have been. Bottom line- good food Horrible service. read more

Tin Rooster Honky Tonk - Great beer and atmosphere!!! Thanks Sabra for educating me on the beers and restaurant.. - Bars Near Me - Verona, New York

This place is a definite highlight of all the restaurants at Turning Stone. Awesome atmosphere, really convinces you that you're in 1990's rural Texas, complete with a saddle/disco ball hanging from the ceiling. If you want to enjoy pretty great food in a nice restaurant in a giant barn in a giant casino, this place is definitely for you. Service was very helpful and punctual. Would be a solid four and a half stars, but the fact that you can be seated in an actual airstream rv pushes it up to a five. read more

The music was VERY loud, the "bouncers" and bartenders weren't too friendly. Got there at a bit after 10, had a few drinks and they promptly closed at midnight. It was midweek but right after a concert, maybe 25 people in the place total. Maybe more fun on weekends but kind of a dud for us. Maybe more suitable for the early 20's crowd that are impressed easily. Lol read more

Awful. Music sucks. Staff is uncooperative. I don't recommend this place. Much better places.

Atmosphere was cool. Food was horrible. Hoffman kielbasa was server lukewarm to cool. Wife and friends were all sick later that night. They had the special and one had ribs. Common theme was the ribs. Three people puking and diarrhea all night and next day. I wouldn't serve the food to my dog. read more

So we went to the Turning Stone with my wife to see Chicago. We wanted to eat at the emerald . Since the line was too long we were advised by a casino employee to go to the Tin Rooster. What a great idea! We ate at the bar. I had a t bone and my wife had beer breaded haddock. We started off with a house salad. The salad was excellent the steak and the haddock were superb. Our bartender was excellent. Recommend this casual country bar / restaurant! read more

The only reason I am giving this place a star is because I have to here. The wait for our food was a long time. Then myself and another person at the table both ordered the same house salad. Mine had dressing tossed throughout it, hers did not. The waitress said it was there, but it wasn't and she had to eat the salad without dressing. The chicken sliders had a weird taste, and parts of the chicken were well undercooked. I don't recommend eating here, maybe just a place to go for a night out and drinks. read more

They recently changed the menu and got rid of many important items such as chicken and waffles, fried chicken, and the fried chicken sandwich. As a person who is centered around a white meat-based diet, I was very limited in my options tonight at dinner. I unfortunately had to order the pulled pork and ribs with cornbread. The cornbread was horrific. Dry with no flavor and burnt around the edges. The pulled pork was dry and stringy, did not fall apart like usual pulled pork should. The ribs did not fall off the bone and had insufficient flavor. In addition, the mac and cheese was off. It had no cheese flavor. I suggest not coming here. read more

So I ordered poutine as my dinner, my fries came out stale, dry and so crispy you could barely bite into them. The rest of my table ordered burgers and unanimously everyone's fries were awful. The chicken wings tasted like someone dumped a gallon of liquid smoke over them.. all in all we won't go back read more

I was expecting so much more...The restaurant looks nice, the menu is authentic but unfortunately, the food sucked! I thought I was playing it safe by ordering the pork ribs little did I know that would be practically inedible. When I tell you they were salty I am not be dramatic or exaggerating! I am certainly not a health nut or on any kind of low fat, low sodium diet so for me to say they were salty it is the truth. Not just kind of salty I am talking like blood pressure rising, stroke inducing kind of salty! The waiter came over to clear plates and saw that I took two bites out of my food and asked if everything was alright I told him they were horrible his response, Thats too bad have a good new year!! needless to say I called over a manager who took the ribs off the check. Skip this place and head to one of the other good restaurants that are in the Turning Stone Casino. read more

This place reminded me of Toby Keith's. I was impressed with the service from the manager or whoever he was and my server, but the food was way over priced for what you're getting. If you enjoy Nascar and loud drunks this is your place. read more
