    The service was very friendly, and the food was okay--not bad, but nothing extraordinary. The restaurant itself is nice, but: it is sooooo loud. Between the loud music inside, the open windows, street traffic, and noise from the surrounding attractions and roller coasters, it was almost impossible to have a conversation. Overall, it wasn't a bad experience, but because of the noise level and atmosphere, it will probably be a one-and-done for us.

    Burger and fries
    Ro W.

    We were greeted when we walked in. They waited for all of the food to be done before bringing it out. We enjoyed the live music. The table was sticky but the waiter said thats how the company stained the table. The food was decent. With them waiting, the fries were cold. The live music was the reason for the higher rating.

    The restaurant offered a wide variety of dishes, with attentive staff providing prompt and friendly service. The welcoming atmosphere was set by tasteful decor and soft lighting, creating a cozy and comfortable setting.

    My man after the ride on the sky wheel! Ate at Kelsey's and enjoyed! Thanks Eric!!!

    Food was good and plenty! Eric was the best server! I would call it a happy atmosphere with a small roller coaster across the street added to the fun ambiance! It was a medium volume but we could still talk.

    Thai Curry Bowl ( Noodles)
    Ron T.

    If you're in Niagara Falls and want a fun, casual spot not far from the action, this place delivers. The Clifton Hill address puts it in a bustling tourist corridor, which adds to the energy. Had loaded nachos, wings, burgers & Thai curry bowl (MUST try)!

    Blue pina colada and a pepsi
    Lisa P.

    Blue pina colada, how did this happen? It was so good and refreshing as this 84 degree day feels like 99+. Every bit of creamy, spiked, slushy ice gave me a good chill. Serving sizes are enough to share but why share if you're feeling kind of greedy. Lol. Everything was so fresh and I had plenty of everything to customize my fajita experience. Haven't had a meal yet here in Canada that I didn't enjoy.

    This place is amazing! Mark, the General Manager was personable and helped bus our table so we could have a prime spot! Ashley our server was attentive and gave us exceptional service. Food is to fantastic and try the artichoke dip 4 cheeses! Highly recommend this spot! ~Best regards from Nebraska!

    Thank you Kelsey's fora phenomenal dinner. You guys rock.. best service, best place and AWESOME food. Best Steak, the beef fajita is to die for... the chicken ceaser wrap was superb.. but I took it to a next level.. I order the Thai BBQ Lettuce Wraps...OMG was so delicious .. I wanted to take one back to the hotel.. that's how sabroso was... keep Up the good food guys....

    Check In

    Felt like a sports bar. Food was ok, rivaled pub food. Waitress was A1. She was very bubbly and showed great attention. Being from NY, I found her blue hair amusing during the Yanks/Jays series.

    Thai Bowl with shrimp and rice
    Christina S.

    Dined in last night around 8pm. We were seated immediately, party of 7 on the outside patio. It was hot but thankfully the sun went down and it got comfortable. They have a nice menu with a variety of choices. I was past the point of hungry...so hungry no idea what I wanted to eat. Lol My son had the sirloin steak diner with shrimp on top and he really enjoyed it (except the baked potato was burnt and hard but the waitress removed it from the bill). I tried the Thai shrimp bowl over rice and enjoyed it. Not the best Thai food but decent especially considering this isn't their speciality. I also had the ocean breeze Pina colada which I loved! 10/10 I didn't catch our servers name but she was friendly and efficient. My only complaint was we waited a long time for our food! Long enough that even the kids mentioned it. Would recommend if in the area. My friends family all had the fajitas and they all really enjoyed them. They looked good too!

    Mushroom melter burger
    Kevin H.

    Let me start with bad. It took way too long for our food to come based on the amount of people in this place at the time. Ok now the good, the food was good. Mushroom melter burger was good. I recommend. Fish and chips were a hit but I will say there was only one piece of fish and the fries were big steak fries. It tasted good just be mindful if you are a big eater. I had sweet potato fries which are a personal favorite any time I eat out. These were mid. One daughter had the Alfredo pasta. She said its mid. It had shrimp in it. I tasted it because she was not being her usual self so I thought maybe she was just tripping, she wasn't, it was mid. Wife had bacon bourbon burger. She liked it a lot. The atmosphere to this place is in the name. It's Kelsey's Roadhouse. It's just like you would expect a roadhouse restaurant to be. *Note. It's open to outside. Like there are literally 3 walls that are open and so outside is inside. Cool lil spot. TVs and a bar. I'd watch the game here for sure and would return. Oh I almost forgot. Entrees range from $21-$25 bucks. p.s. my sister n law had onion rings. They were not good. Very Burger King like.

    It was really busy night. The servers tried to be attentive as possible and did a great job. The establishment itself was okay in regard to cleanliness. There were a lot of tables that needed to be cleared and cleaned from the party before. The drinks came out pretty good! My burger was pretty good although I couldn't order it medium due to Canada's law, so I had to have it well done, nonetheless it was a pretty good burger and so were the loaded fries. Our server was attentive as he could be, given the fact they were so busy and definitely needed more staff.

Pretty easy to find, you can't miss the rustic looking exterior with the blind pig in huge letters on top. There's a decent amount of parking, but I'll bet when this place gets busy it's tougher to find a spot. When you walk inside, the interior is very well kept and has a rustic bar-like feel to it, plenty of bar and high top seating as well as booths. I decided to order an iced tea. Something I've noticed about Canada, iced tea is usually a sweetened drink. Not like iced tea you get in the states. So just be aware of that if you're looking to get some iced tea. Regardless, it was very tasty and hit the spot perfectly. One thing I like about this place is they have a bunch of different specials throughout the week, the day I went the special was the brisket sandwich and side salad for $13.99 Canadian. I upgraded to the Caesar salad, and also ordered a side of KFC, or Korean fried Chicken for those of you in the know. Let me tell you something about that. KFC, absolutely delicious! How can you go wrong with fried chicken thighs with Korean BBQ sauce? You can't, that's what I'm telling you! The brisket sandwich was really really good, albeit just a tad dry. But I'm not deducting any points for that. It was absolutely delicious and worth every penny. Service was great, friendly staff, and everything came out as expected. Bottom line? I will definitely be back for that brisket sandwich. They also had some other specials so I guess I'm going to need to spend an entire week here and just eat my life away at the blind pig.

We paid the extra surcharge to lock in a table right at the window, and have to say it is worth it if you can swing it. We checked out some of the tables slightly further back, and while still great, not nearly as magical. Food was high level - and focused on local Ontario food and drink. I had a flight of local whiskeys, which were all tasty. Everything we had was great - the steaks were perfectly cooked. The seafood soup special was awesome (loaded with mussels, clams, salmon and creamy but not too creamy). The panzanella salad was also a top notch version as well with extremely fresh ingredients. Overall though, even including the kids, the favorite was the Brussels sprouts appetizer. Slight maple flavor, good miso flavor, perflectly crispy and some extra sweetness pops from pomegranates. That's the one I'll be thinking about!

I got into Canada early, so I decided to go have some lunch. I walked in, and immediately felt like I just came home. The bartender, this lovely young woman named Onya, came up and took my order. I ordered a black and tan. She suggested I go for the smooth black and tan which I did. It did not disappoint! I may have to have my black and tans like this for the rest of my life. I ordered a cup of the buffalo wing chowder, and she said it's one of the most popular items on the menu. I asked her to bring that out first before my Classic Caesar salad. Let me tell you something about that soup. Now I'm not a big soup guy, but I do like chowders, and this was the absolute best I've ever had. Had. I've had clam chowder all over the United States but man this one absolutely nails it! It has that buffalo wing flavor which just perfect and not overpowering. I should have gotten the bigger bowl of it instead of the cup. Now let's talk about the Caesar salad. It was absolutely perfect! It had the perfect ratio of dressing to lettuce, not just poured on top like most places but actually tossed. Onya said she did it herself, so massive kudos for her going above and beyond the call of duty. Overall this meal hit on all cylinders and did not disappoint. I will definitely be back here a couple more times while I'm in Canada. If you need to find me, you know where to find me. The bottom line? You really need to get the buffalo chicken wing chowder. It is absolutely an amazing soup and will change your life. And if you like a good classic Caesar, you can't do better than this one!

I was glad we sat further away because it would have interfered with conversation, but I appreciated the singing (just a little loud for me).

Because of this snafu beyond my control, and a late flight into Buffalo, we almost did not get to Dine at Weinkeller, which would have been a huge loss. Thankfully, the hostess was able to work something out and they got us in. We are so glad they did! Everything was so delicious!
