    2.5 The thing about small resort towns is that there isn't a thing... ya know? Things are what they are and if you don't like it... well... I don't know what to tell you. You're stuck. Oh, before I go any further, this was a pre-lockdown experience. I made my way to Garrett County in late fall. I was catching up with some of my oldest guy friends for a much-needed guys weekend. Being the Type A sort I am (and having never been to this part of the state before), I arrived earlier than everyone else -- much earlier. After gorging myself upon arrival on chips, Oreo cookies and Coca-Cola (a balanced lunch if ever there was one), I realized that I needed to eat something for dinner. I wasn't familiar with the area and the next shipment of attendees weren't showing up until midnight. Oh, and did I mention that I was at a lake house -- with a first floor of all windows -- by myself? And, it was snowing. AND I didn't have cell service. Yes, I was in a horror movie. Trying not to think about my impending doom, I found a drawer of menus and pressed my luck with an easy bet: pizza! In the real world, I have gluten issues. But I knew better than to come to a small(er) town with dietary restrictions and other needs. That was doing too much. Pizza, it was. The young lady on the phone was lovely and when she found out where I was staying, she had to get the okay for delivery (if that gives you any indication of how remote I was... and how I was going to have to fight for my life later). She got the ok and I ordered a pepperoni, sausage and onion pizza. No problem. I was charged a king's ransom for delivery and quoted a long time for arrival but I was alright with both things. I was off the grid, it was snowing and was thankful for any sort of delivery options. After a while, the food eventually showed up. The driver was polite. I paid, tipped and thanked him and I was ready to dig in to the first non-gluten-free pizza I'd had in a while. Despite the oncoming gastric distress, I was looking forward to the familiar taste of flour-y goodness. Imagine my shock and disappointment with what I received. It was not good, y'all. In fact, it may have been some of the nastiest pizza I'd had in quite some time. You see how the earlier review wrote about 'soggy' food? Yep. That. The dough was soggy (see picture), the cheese was congealed and the sauce was tangy. The pie was incredibly greasy and the middle was undercooked. None of this was a good combo. Despite my hunger, I could only suffer through one piece.* I don't want to kick a business when it may be down so I'll reiterate that the employees were very nice. I also thought the sausage (when eaten by itself) was good. The pizza I got was pan-style and the crust was enjoyable. But, I'm afraid, that's the extent of the good things I can say. *My buddies eventually arrived, started drinking like fish and knocked off the rest of the pizza in a drunken stupor -- as one does.

    Personal pepperoni pizza! The crust is homemade, the cheese is gooey, it's perfect!

    Seafood pizza is outstanding and their crust is artisan quality. Ari's staff is very friendly too!

    I gave The Greene Turtle a second try after learning that they expanded and reopened the outdoor…read moredeck, which was my favorite part about this place when it used to be Santa Fe Grille. And I must say they did do a great job on the expansion! The deck is beautiful and spacious, and it wrapped around both sides of the building, and it has a lot of different seating options some with umbrella tables not undercover, and then there is a large portion undercover where the outside bar is located. Then one big screen, TV and a couple small screen TVs, which was perfect since I came there to watch opening day of Steelers football. The bartender Steve was super nice, and there were quite a few regulars at the bar. They had some great game day specials for beer and for cocktails and you could also get buckets of beer. The also had some appetizer specials during football games. They have happy hour that I believe starts at 3 PM Monday through Friday. I think they have improved their menu for the better since I was last year a few years ago. I had a tall Michelob Ultra for five dollars as a game day special and then I have a skinny margarita is my second drink. I was happy to see that they had protein bowls on the menu, which came with a base of mixed grains, greens, chopped tomatoes, black beans, and roasted corn, and then you could add one of four proteins, I added blackened shrimp and it did come with 11 shrimp on top. You could also pick a sauce to go with, I tried to lime creamer, which I didn't really like that much and they actually brought me a tomatillo that was spicy and tasty. I would definitely return here on a nice day to sit on the deck and a few beverages. You can see the lake from the deck expansion. In fact, we may return tomorrow for lunch! They also have live music on the patio on the weekends.

Our server was friendly, but we only saw her twice during the entire meal. Everything arrived cold--fries, wings, burgers, chicken, and the kids' mac and cheese was overcooked and dried out. The manager personally apologized and stated he was cooking. He took responsibility, explaining they didn't have a cook scheduled for the noon rush. I appreciate the honesty, but the long wait, lack of service, and poor food quality made for a disappointing experience. Photo is my "double burger" the size of a silver dollar and a boneless wing for reference.

The wings were a good size, seemed to be cooked well, and I really liked the Cajun Ranch flavor. Unfortunately, they arrived ice cold. I also would have preferred the wings actually tossed in the sauce instead of having it poured over the top. My kids got the chicken tenders and fries. They were decent, but those also arrived cold. I also ordered the 8-inch Rooster-style Italian. I didn't realize "Rooster style" meant it would come between pizza dough instead of being a traditional hoagie. Interestingly, this was actually piping hot when it arrived, while the wings, chicken tenders, and fries were cold. I'm not really sure how that happened. The sandwich itself was okay, but it was very dough-heavy and I wish the meat had been spread more evenly throughout. Next time I'd probably just order the regular Italian hoagie. The biggest disappointment was my wife's Buffalo chicken salad. The chicken didn't seem to have any Buffalo sauce on it, the bacon was missing, and both containers of ranch had opened during delivery and spilled all over everything. Our delivery was also about 25 minutes late. Someone did call beforehand to let me know there was an issue with the driver, which I appreciated, although I didn't realize it would end up being that late. I called the restaurant about the salad and spoke with a manager. He offered to replace the entire order even though I was only asking to have the salad replaced. They got the replacement out to us pretty quickly, around 15 minutes later. I definitely appreciate the manager taking responsibility and making an effort to correct the situation. Overall, this particular order was disappointing, especially with most of the food arriving cold and the issues with the salad. The manager's response and willingness to make things right is a big reason I'm giving this experience 3 out of 5 stars. I'd still be willing to give Rooster's Roost another try dining in. The wings were big, the Cajun Ranch flavor was good, and I have a feeling the experience would be much better getting everything fresh and hot at the restaurant.
