We have decided we would drive for hours just to come back to this place! Our server recommended it and she said she's very picky and it was her favorite. We agreed with her!

Surprised there aren't more recent reviews. We've lived in the area for about 6 years. On average…read morethe roadhouse is the best place in the cormorant lakes area for food and service. Still, the 3 stars is because it can be wildly inconsistent. Sometimes their fries are great, sometimes not. Sometimes the prime rib is great, sometimes not. Sometimes the burgers look like they were handmade, sometimes not. There really doesn't seem to be a pattern, at least not on the consumer end. Maybe they have very different cooks on weekdays vs weekends. No idea. It's still the best place in the area.
