I knew this place was going to be a winner when I saw the waitress hustling inside. True to the first impression, we waited for nothing. Plus, Lisa somehow found time to share a few laughs. Haven't had service like that anywhere in years. The food is great too. Steak salad is a winner within a winner served by a winner. I'll be back. read more

We just ate here for the first time. We were reluctant because we hadn't seen many recent reviews. The food was great! The service was fantastic. There was a wide selection of food... I'm including a picture of a few different dishes we had already torn into. Really great food. It has a sports bar area near the bar. We will be eating here again. It was delicious!!!! read more

Jefferson's Roadhouse - We ordered a Marguerita salad with chicken and a Jefferson burger with a side salad ( split and divided between two people) - Steakhouses Near Me - Yreka, California

Just ate here for the first time and absolutely loved it. It was one of the best hamburgers I think of all of Northern California and I go out a lot. Do not hesitate. Do not pass this restaurant up. It is by far the best hamburger in Northern California be there order and enjoy. read more

Went to dinner 8/29 after reading great reviews. Ordered drinks , small appetizers , soup and salad and a main - halibut and prime rib Waitress had NO idea how to serve a meal. Husband's soup came out BEFORE drinks. (Clam chowder the worst- basically white water w potatoes). Appetizer next, main courses before his soup was done and drinks still full. Then my salad after my halibut was almost gone. For a $100 meal, in and out in an hour. Not enjoyable read more

Value was terrible. Food was less than OK. I ordered the fried fish combo. Got one small piece of fish, two very small shrimp and two small calamari strips. So, I was still hungry! Very few people there, that says something! Black Bear Diner was loaded with people, so that says something! read more

The restaurant is beautiful laid out, comfortable tempature and chairs. They have table that can handle a large family of 18 or evan 36 next to each other. The serves were quick, warm and friendly. Food is outstanding well presented, hot and freshener as well as making your tastbuds sing. Area for improvement: Very, very few, 1. there is a small extra 3% gratuity fee added as well as sale taxed on top of the 3% charge. 2. The serves deserted a 20% gratuity bu not on top of the extra 3% fee and sales tax which most patrones add the 20% to the total final bill. 2. read more

Food wasn't great especially for price. Textbook steakhouse menu but not stellar food

Service was awesome! The food...well, not so much. Was seated right away. Ordered a martini and a computer error gave me a second one, which the waitstaff chose to deliver free of charge. I once again ordered a porterhouse. Selected a loaded baked potato for the side, declining a salad and/or vegetables. The steak was much like the one I was served seven months ago, filet side was tender. Baked potato was small, garnished with chives, bacon and cheese. No sour cream. Was there butter? I couldn't tell. I ordered coffee and was sad to have the "cream" arrive in little plastic containers. I ordered the brownie with vanilla ice cream. Removed the first hair. Showed waitstaff the second hair. The dessert was removed from the bill. I'll probably try Round Table Pizza next time I stay in town. read more

The chicken clicker sandwich on the menu says 2 4 oz chicken filets...plain tasting maybe 4 oz total on sandwich. Chick-fil-A is a much better tasting sandwich and significantly not as expensive. The other item was the combination seafood basket. What a joke!! The one fish filet was a 2.5 by 2.5 freezer burned deep fried battered, and my sister could not take bit through it. So sad. I told the waitress that the best thing about my lunch was fire in the fireplace and the cold beer. Unfortunately I came for my birthday lunch....NOT read more

Stopped in here during a long drive for a rest and sit down dinner. We arrived on a Sunday 1/2 hr before closing. Waitress was amazingly up beat and welcoming. I ordered the flat iron steak with low expectations for the meal. Damn nice steak cooked perfectly, coffee was hot and fresh, loaded potato was LOADED. Will stop by again when we do this trip next time. read more

I went years ago and luved it. I got a great well done steak cooked to perfection. Then tired it again recently and got a hamburger. It was not worth the price. Absolutely no flavor read more

4 of us tired & hungry showed up early, got to pick our table, and were greeted with good & efficient service. I like that there is a good amount of space between tables, not squished together. We got fish & chips: light crunchy breading & buttery cod & they let me swap onion rings which were yummy pizza: good, thin crust caesar salad: fresh mix of greens & not too drenched in dressing sweet potato fries: nice flavor Food was good, fresh, service was nice & friendly. I would go back. They cook/fry with butter & canola oil. read more

My flatiron steak was overcooked. I asked for medium. It was well done. Not good. My waitress offered to make me another, but I was so hungry that I had eaten half the steak by the time she checked on me. By then I wasn't hungry anymore. I think she should have discounted the bill, but that didn't happen either. She did make me a great salad. Also the baked potato was undercooked. Too hard. read more

Service was amazing! Super attentive and helpful for our first time here. The food was really good! It was unique and had some fun items on the menu! The only complaint I have is that I don't live here to come here more. read more

Good place to eat when hungry! Also the cheese bites were very good and the chicken Alfredo was good to just needs to be left with less sauce and the sauce to be thicker. read more

Hate when you want to like a place and you are disappointed. Our server looked like she was the only person on the floor and she actually was doing a pretty good job considering she had a number of tables. We ordered a Reuben Sandwich, which was a special and the chicken dinner. While we were waiting, there were numerous flies flying around us. It took 15-20 minutes to get our salad. Our meal took at least 30 minutes to get or a bit longer. The Reuben looked and tasted real good but the bread was a bit too soggy. The chicken dinner came with 4 thin cuts of chicken breast and was unfortunately a bit overcooked. My daughter and I had split the chicken dinner and the portion amount was large enough to split. Not sure if the actual dinner is suppose to come with 4 thin slice chicken pieces or just one nice size chicken breast but since it was 1p in the afternoon they may have used the chicken for their chicken sandwiches. I did like the Roadhouse feel of this place. Ladies bathroom was clean. We left full but wish we had had a better experience. read more

Stayed overnight in town and hotel clerk recommended Jefferson Roadhouse. Service was great...Lisa was friendly, helpful, and the highlight. We split a steak dinner. The split salad was huge and fresh, and the croutons were delicious. Steak was just okay. Broccoli not edible...overcooked and not even green. Baked potato was nothing special. Probably won't be back but if you do go, ask for Lisa! read more

Well! I was disappointed. Really poor atmosphere, old Formica tables? Very little art? Plain. Very boring. Felt like I was in a Dennys. Food was OK. I had a good burger, well prepared. The 3people with me had clam chowder and a pear and fruit salad. They weren't impressed. The guy playing guitar was fun, and good. Huge menu, probably all out of a freezer? Our waitress was very nice, new to the restaurant and spoke broken English but a very pleasant and hard working lady!! Get a makeover!!! Art!! Real wood tables, like a lodge??? It had potential read more

I'll start off by saying our server was wonderful. She was very attentive and on top of things even though she was the only one on the floor that day. The problem was the food. The clam chowder was thin and the clams tasted old. My mom's chili tasted like ginger was added. It was really strange and inedible. The salads were ok but I had to pick out some old limp pieces of lettuce. This is the third time we've eaten here and this last time did it for us. I hope they can improve the quality of the food. It's in a perfect location and there are so few choices in town for the food they serve. read more

me and my girlfriend have went there several times and when we do things like that they get busy and they over cook the food or not correct. The waitresses are not that well equipt with customer service skills read more

Poor service & food quality, resulting from being understaffed with inexperienced personnel. I've been to enough Roadhouse/Steakhouses to tell if things are done/calculated right. The 16oz & 12oz Prime Rib cuts seemed a bit lacking in the weight department, though the cool temperature of the dish overall could distract from that. Kitchen-to-table service was so horribly staggered that those first in our party (granted it was large - 13 people total) were nearly done eating as the last ones finally received their food. Wait service was anemic, as evidenced by the staff suddenly being twice as visible once the meal had ended and it was time to pay the bill. No less than 3 TIMES did members of our party have to procure basic items (water, flatware, napkins) due to lack of attention. Strangley enough, the BILLING process worked quickly & seamlessly, not missing a beat with a 20% auto-gratuity PLUS a 3% "handling fee". I get it - times are tough and a business needs to survive, but knowingly, consistently, rail-roading your customers with no sense of conscience has its due. This may work on the inflow of unaware traveller's passing through for now, but the word's getting out. So to anyone reading this I recommend steering clear of Jefferson's Roadhouse for now, as that's what I intend to do. read more

Ive been here numerous times so i was looking forward to a good meal with family and friends. We were part of a group of 13. We had reservations for 630pm (for 10 but added 3). They were busy and short-staffed when we arrived so we all gave them A LOT of grace. However, it took at least 15 minutes before anyone took our orders. We asked for water for everyone but only received a few glasses...then the girl left and didn't return. Drinks and food took forever with no apologies. We were only checked on when we ordered, received food and then when we got our check. So, we really didn't have an opportunity to complain. Food was mediocre at best. Don't waste your $$ on the prime rib, pizza or chicken alfredo. The drinks, however, were on point. But that's the only good I can offer. The mandatory 20% gratuity should've been waived...if they only would've noticed or understood how lacking the service was. We were there for nearly 2 hours and left incredibly disappointed. Recommend they increase staff and reduce the menu to more manageable offerings. Until big changes are made I wouldn't return. So disappointed. read more

First, thank you to the new owners! The food and service have greatly improved and we love your fish and chips! We only as that you find a way to increase staffing as we have limited time for lunch! read more

Good food. Good service. Love the BBQ. I don't go often but the food is consistently great.

Outstanding burgers, along with good service! Bloody Mary was perfect, spicy and meaty! Definitely will be back! read more

The ambiance is so nice. read more

Wife and I's first time here. Love the atmosphere. Service attended to us quickly and was friendly and attentive the entire time. Ordered wings for our appetizer and were very crispy and very good and the price was incredible for a dozen. We split the ribeye and I love that they cut it in half and plated the food equally. That was a first usually we would be doing that ourselves and appreciate their thoughtfulness for doing that. The prices were very reasonable. Would come back again. read more

After a couple of visits (over the last year): I can confidently state that the food and atmosphere is on point. This time our waitress (Chloe *I think*) remembered us and didn't flinch when my other half had a laundry list of special requests (extra cheese, extra alfredo sauce, extra ranch, blah blah blah). Chloe timed everything perfectly, was very attentive and her welcoming demeanor made for a very pleasant dining experience. I only ordered the fried pickles because a fellow yelper suggested it... Omg, the fried pickles with fry sauce *YUM* I would order these again. The side salad is fresh and is a generous sized portion. Their buttermilk ranch dressing is the best we've found in a long while (made in house maybe?). They may specialize in steaks and burgers, but I'm a BIG Fan of their salads and hot sandwiches. There is definitely something for everyone on the menu; come Hungry! -Excellent Service -Social distancing strictly enforced and Covid precautions in place *very clean* -Outdoor seating available with patio heaters -Food is Fresh and served at the appropriate temps (salads chilled and entrees hot) -Generous Portions -Fair Price -Not a chain restaurant read more

Seriously one of the best Roadhouses on Interstate Five in either direction. We are traveling with a dog and they were more than accommodating and gave us their outdoor patio with excellent service (thank you Heidi.) the drinks are really generous and amazing. My husband had a macadamia Porter fron an Ashland brewery! I worked hard on my rum punch ( a roundhouse punch) the food is delicious and the friendly atmosphere makes it a great stop on your road trip! read more

Great steak and rib experience. Staff was friendly and attentive. Will definitely return when in the area.

Great food and great service would for sure go back!!!! It was all delicious and loved the atmosphere we felt very comfortable!!

Enjoyed a nice Sunday dinner here today! Nice pastrami sandwich with fries. My wife enjoyed the chicken salad. Nice beer and wine selection. Mostly I loved the Rum Punch Cocktail!! Bang bang hit the spot! 3 shots of assorted rims helps deliver the goods on this monster!! great service. read more

My friend & I walked in just to order a plate of buffalo wings to share since we were on our way to Oregon and needed some late munchies. With not too many options around the area, we decided to stop here. Great choice because we were not expecting such amazing and friendly service. From the moment we walked in, Chris, our server, was truly one of a kind! We were so thrilled to have the opportunity to be served with Chris; just soooo friendly. The wings tasted great and our experience was good. One thing we didn't like was that there no was no music or noise playing in the background. It just seemed awkwardly quiet. But nonetheless, would return for beer! Thanks Chris! read more

Not many places open on this Sunday. There was a sign wait to be steated but no one around. Just one occupied table in that noisy place. In the bar behind a glass wall the waitress, barmaid and four customer had a good time. I don't understand about the 4 and 5 star has to be the staff and their friends. It was 2pm everything took for every never got more coke on this hot day. Had track down the waitress from behind the bar to pay. If we every spot in that town get fast food place will the places to eat. read more

The best but it sold so hope they keep the menu. I had the steak salad. Wish i ordered large. Wow superb!!!

The ambience is pretty mid, as my kids would cringe to hear me say, but the service was friendly and attentive. I stuck with a salad, wings, and poutine, all of which were pretty darn good. The beer selection left a little to be desired. All in all this is definitely a place worth going to if you're in town. read more

The burgers are great!!! The stakes are hit and miss. The service is professional and friendly!!! The place is clean and I would eat here again. read more

My steak salad was great! I had asked for medium rare steak and that's how it came out. My husband had the Fish & Chips and he felt they were tasty but a bit greasy. The service was very friendly and attentive and the restaurant itself was clean and welcoming. If the weather had been warmer, it would have been nice to sit outside with the views of the mountains and foothills. read more

Had a great stop off here while running some errands in town. This place had an awesome vibe and I would definitely recommend a stop-off here if you are on a road trip and looking for some good grub. We showed up before the lunch rush and the kitchen took a bit longer than expected but the service was great and the food was delicious! read more

Jefferson's Roadhouse - Jefferson burger with tater tots - Steakhouses Near Me - Yreka, California

Now called just The Roadhouse, under new management and they really need help. This is not the place for a quiet romantic dinner as it is hard to converse when the place is 1/3rd full but sounds like a sports arena. It took 10 minutes to get drink orders after we were seated and anther 10 to be served. My cut of prime rib was lukewarm and served on a cold plate. Sadly, my cousin brought her 2 children, age 5 and 2, who behaved badly, and I would have expected the hostess to asked to NOT disturb the other guests, but no. For me, this was a teachable moment - now I know what steps I will take when indulgent parents allow their children to behave badly in a fine dining restaurant, including walking out before the meal arrives. read more
