    This is the second time we have gone to Rockwood Grill. First time was Father’s Day and now for Thanksgiving. We sat on the patio this time with beautiful views. Service was wonderful and an abundance of yummy food. The had a separate room just for desserts. The only problem we had was a disagreement on the bill. I had $75 for adults and $28 for children. Our bill came and we were charged $150 per adult and 50 for child. I luckily had a picture of the menu with the price and asked my server about it. I don’t know why it was advertised on Facebook this way? Anyway, they charged me $75 per our two adults and I appreciated it. I definitely wouldn’t have made reservations for that price. I would go back again but would make sure I called ahead and got clarification on prices.

    Winston gave our large party of nine very good service. I especially appreciated his attention and willingness to be lighthearted yet professional. This is the second time our Thanksgiving group has met here and we’ll continue to do so. The blue cheese stuffed olives for my g & t are fantastic and the drink itself actually has liquor in it! Ha ha.
