    Empty restaurant
    Jenn K.

    This visit was horrible!! Place reeked like marijuana coming from staff, from entry to the back. Was only 2 other customers inside when we came at 9pm. Thought that was weird, but ordered appetizers and meal. Appetizer looked like it had been cooked 5 times when it came and was gross! Waited for food that came out, and it cold and rubbery. Whole meal practically went to trash. Then, on the service....waitress rushed to take our order....with empty restaurant, brought out old cold dry food, and then the couple times she came back to table she was behind our booth talking. Thought it was another customer...but no, she was talking to us. I thought it was so odd and unprofessional. Atmosphere....same old tired and a little dated drab look. Music was loud in dining area, as well as ridiculously loud music coming from kitchen...different songs playing loud at same time made me want to leave before the food! We used to regulars at this chain, quit coming due to such slow service. Now it's not worth coming at all. Would have been better going through a drive thru and getting a greasy bag of slop than coming here...at least the food would have been warm.

    Riblets!

    It needs a facelift badly. It's over 20 years old and neglected. Hardly any customers.

    We decided to celebrate my daughter's birthday at Sedona Taphouse last Friday. We actually came…read morehere for her birthday a couple of years ago and thoroughly enjoyed it so we were excited to return. Since we were informed that we couldn't make reservations on the same day, we did have about a 45 minute wait when we got there but we didn't mind. We were sent a link to track how far we were in line, which I thought was very helpful. Once we were seated, our server came over right away with waters. She was extremely nice and gave us time to look over the menu. The Potato Leak Soup was on their March Specials Menu so we decided to order that with a Bread Basket to start. The bread was delicious, very soft and warm, it was served with a whipped, honey butter and herbed oil. Unfortunately, the soup was cold when we received it. I'm not sure if it had been sitting a while but we did have them returned. Oddly enough, they were returned in a larger bowl, not the same size cup, but with the same amount of soup lol. It definitely was weird but it was indeed piping hot and the soup was delicious. The Crab Stuffed Mushrooms were great as well. I decided on the Crab Stuffed Shrimp, my daughter chose the Chicken Marsala and my sister went with the Hand Cut NY Strip. I thoroughly enjoyed the Shrimp, the flavors were great and the NY Strip was cooked perfectly. My daughter wasn't a fan of her Chicken Marsala but they did switch it out for some Salmon. Overall, my daughter had a great birthday dinner yet again. Our server was new but we couldn't tell because she did a great job at making sure we had everything we needed. The restaurant is beautiful and the food is delicious! I will always recommend Sedona Taphouse for anyone looking for a great meal and dining experience.

    We were looking for a place to watch some March Madness that wouldn't be too crowded. After reading…read morethe review for the wings, we decided to check this place out. It's located in the back of Rosie's Casino - you do have to go through security and show your ID to be able to enter (must be 18 or older). There are several large screens so it's a great place to watch a game. Several beers, a couple wine options and mixed drinks available. They seemed to be understaffed when we went so while the servers were extremely nice, it did take 25 minutes for us to get our beers. The food (wings & Parmesan truffle fries) came out quickly and while I prefer breaded, crispy wings, the sauces were pretty good. I loved the truffle fries and bonus: all appetizers are 1/2 off during the March Madness games. If there's a big game we want to watch, we might return since they have so many screens and a decent beer selection.

Better than Buffalo Wild Wings and Wing Stop powers combined, I dare any of y'all to question me. Cause I'm in fact 85% SEAGAN. The 85% comes primarily from me cheating when it comes to cheese. I REFUSE to eat meat ANYWHERE in RVA but this place. Swear to GOD. They are really that good and we are talking about access to a full bar and HELLA TVS. All jokes aside, you can't thank me right now for coming and trying the wings. TBH, I have no idea about the rest of the menu but I hear that the ribs, chili and nachos rank high up with the wings. They also have specials they run through the week like live bands on Friday, Trivia on Tuesdays and BOGO wings on Wednesday. (Wings have to be dine in but I doubt they won't let you take one bite and then ask for a box- don't tell them I said that) The bartender I met, Tiffany was fabulous like Tiffany's jewelry. Real talk. Also, they have plugs running the length of the bar so bring your chargers for convenience!!!!!

My husband ordered the chicken sandwich and you could order any wing sauce of your choice for your chicken. He chose the honey bbq. Side of fries. I got the loaded potato with broccoli and cheese (you could add bacon for a little extra which I wish I had, since it would have elevated it) and a side salad. The food came out and it was very fresh and made to order. My husband took a bite of his sandwich and immediately dropped it. His eyes began to water and I said "what's wrong?" He just said "HOT". I thought he meant the chicken was hot. Oh no. Once he got his bearings together and could speak he said that was not honey bbq . He doesn't do spicy. He was sucking down water like no tomorrow. I had seen enough tik toks to know that was only intensifying it. . I told him to hold on and let's wait and ask for a milk. He told the waiter who said the staff in the back didn't speak English and may have gotten wrong and took it back right away (come to find out it was the spicy inferno sauce, not sure you don't need a waiver for that one lol). He brought out more water and a milk which did help. The manager did come and check on my husband. Which was very sweet. It was an honest mistake and definitely one to talk about. It was a cute little place and a very nice place. They fixed his meal and put the honey bbq on the next one. It was a funny ride home though, he couldn't feel his lips the rest of the day. If you can't laugh. You can't live.

This restaurant merits a 4 or 5 star rating on most dimensions. The reason for the 1-star review is the safety hazard that is the men's restroom. The floor leading to the rest rooms is always slippery. Everyone knows that and it is common in certain restaurants, I've noticed. However, this means the floors in the restrooms need to stay dry. Every single time I have gone into the men's room, I have nearly slipped and fell. Last night, I caught myself before falling and made a mental note to step carefully. But even trying my very best, I still nearly fell two more times before exiting the room. The reason I am finally writing a review about what I've observed on numerous visits is the fact that I observed an employee, who was working behind the bar, go into the bathroom. Surely, he was aware of the hazard. A trained employee (and a responsible one) would immediately go get a mop and clean that mess up. If not for safety, at least for public health. This guy didn't, and that was the final straw for me. I'll be back in a few weeks. If I see that the issue is finally resolved, I'll change this rating to a 4 or 5. Until then, this is basically the only way to potentially get someone's attention.
