    Cheeseburger
    Lesley M.

    This wasn't quite what I was expecting upon arrival honestly. The building is quite worn along with the outside seating. They offered a very limited menu that day. I was surprised they didn't offer a few beers on tap, but they offered a large variety of cans/bottles of beers. I went with the cheeseburger and tots, and my son went with the chicken tender basket with tots. My burger consisted of a large patty and decent amount of toppings. Everything tasted great and arrived fairly quickly. Our server was nice but kind of sporadic on checking on us. My husband ended up going inside to order another beer for example.

    My wife found this on our way back from our son's baseball game last night. It was tucked off the main road so it was kind of hard to fine based on Maps. I love hole in the wall restaurants, so I was eager to try it. We were greeted us as we walked up and decided to sit outside to look at the water. They do not offer anything on tap, but they have a large selection of beers in their coolers. They offered a limited menu, but they offered a variety in my opinion. My burger was delicious, and I enjoyed the seasoned fries as well.

    Stopped by while riding my motorcycle around. Definitely low-key. Not fancy but a goodish selection of bottled beers and the cheeseburger and tots were tasty. There was a decent amount of customers there today. Not crowded at all, though I can imagine the patio getting packed when a band is playing. I'm torn between wishing they'd clean up the place a bit and just enjoying the laid back attitude. I think laid back is probably just fine for a beer and burgers stop with the guys. They gave me a ration of good natured shit for wearing my OU hat in there. But we all agreed it was a good thing we could all hate the uT Longhorns together. I'll be back.

    Absolutely Glorious on the River small town Biker/Dive Bar Alert!!!! This place has been one of my fav spring, summer an fall pit stops when you want to enjoy a beautiful day on the platte river. The beers always cold the bloody Mary's are home made an absolutely delicious. Now let's talk about their food; it's better then some places in the city for half the price. I'd highly recommend the smoked wings; their freaking amazing an the smoke is perfect. I'm also seeing it get a ton of love thrown into it so don't know if there are new owners or not but the place is getting a nice face lift that was definitely needed.

    Definitely a great place to have a delicious burger and a beer with a view of the river . Menu has really improved!! Will be back :)

    Favorite burger in the area for sure. Menu seems like it has expanded. Really offers so great food, I have enjoyed everything I have tried. Great view too!!

    I really like it here, probably just because it's on the river. It's definitely a dive and cleanliness is not a strong suit here but the food was good, the waitress was hilarious and the views were amazing. We watched a couple of eagles fishing on the river and enjoyed a couple of drinks. It was a nice and very laid back evening.

They have a good selection of alcoholic beverages so it was easy to find something. Their lunch menu was a good size too so I'm sure everyone can find something there.

This is my second time coming to get the sirloin steak special on Wednesday. I think they have redone the place. It looked like they had New chair, chairs and table tables and I think the carpet was even new. They had a black theme going on which I thought made it feel like a little bit more of an upscale steakhouse, but still with the country charm. Our server with so sweet and took care of us very well. She came back to check on us often and was very helpful explaining things on the menu. We all ended up ordering the sirloin steak. You can choose the side of your choice . Our sides varied a little bit because my one friend can't have gluten, so she ended up ordering the baked potato. they were very accommodating and understood about needing to be careful with even the steak as they cooked it, to keep everything gluten-free. My other friend and I got the potato casserole. It was pretty good, but I wished I would've gotten the potato because I love a good baked potato with my steak. The sirloin steak was a great size and mine was done to perfection. It was a little tough in spots, but that is to be expected with sirloin. The flavor was fabulous, though. We had a nice corner table with a view out the window. The atmosphere is very enjoyable and it wasn't too loud. They have a huge dining area so we didn't have to worry about if we were going to get a table or not. I want to come back and try some of their other specials. Check out their website, it tells about each special that they have Monday through Friday and Saturday night they have prime rib! Round the Bend Steakhouse is definitely worth the drive, especially if you want to get out of the city and enjoy a nice little drive in the country. Mahoney State Park is close. Also, the Air Museum is by Mahoney. And Ashland has so many cool shops and a winery and a brewery.

I requested medium-rare and it came a touch closer to medium, but it was still incredibly juicy, tender, and packed with rich, savory flavor. The broccolini was a perfect fresh counterpoint.

The main issue was that I ordered a $15 glass of wine but was brought and charged a $24 glass of wine because the bar got confused and messed up. However my server only told me this after it was poured. Talk about a bait and switch! Also, how is their mess up my fault? Anyways I would say 4 or 5 stars for the food and 1 star for the service which I'm averaging at 3 stars here. One annoying part about the food though. My wife and I had ordered prime rib which said it had an au just but when our food arrived, it looked dry to me. Like as if no au jus was on it? Oh well, at least it wasn't overcooked or anything. I ordered medium rare and it was actually pretty rare!

I will start off by saying that the staff here were all excellent, everyone was warm and friendly. The atmosphere was fine, it is in a new build in the middle of a suburban area, so it was about what i expected, it was nice and laid back. My wife ordered two of their specialty cocktails and they were both very good, I liked the queen bee the best. The food was very good as well, we started with a beef wonton appetizer, it was really good, it had nice pieces of rare beef with onions, slaw, and sauce on some very crispy wontons. We ordered the marsala glazed chicken and the meatloaf for our main courses, and both did not disappoint. The marsala chicken was tender and flavored well, and came on a bed of risotto and Brussels sprouts, the sprouts were excellent and all three ingredients worked very well together. The meatloaf was also excellent, it came topped with a tomato based gravy on top that had a great homemade taste, and the mashed potatoes were amazing, some of the best I've had in a while. We wanted dessert, but we're too full after a great meal.
