Sadly Boodles missed the mark on almost every level. We made reservations for Saturday night in mid…read moreJanuary. Since this was our first visit we didn't know what to expect but the reviews looked good. We arrived to a packed house and I was surprised how small and crammed it was inside. Dumpy is tree he word is use to describe the inside. Peeling paint and stained ceilings. Ventilation system look like it was straight out of the 70s and never maintained since then. I never thought I'd have to worry about Legionnaires disease but this is the place that stuff like that starts in. Tired, old and dingy inside. I'm not opposed to dive bars and restaurants, in fact I love them but Boodles paints themselves as upscale dining with prices to support that. It's anything but. The tables are crammed very close together and you can't help but bump into the people dining next to you to get to your table. I've been in small, intimate restaurants before with the same type of tight configurations but this was almost ridiculous. We ordered a round of drinks. A Cosmopolitan for me and an Old Fashioned for the boyfriend. The people next to us had a group of 6 and they mentioned they have been waiting for almost 2 1/2 hours for their main course. That was another bad sign. Our drinks arrived and were very lackluster. All you could taste was booze which isn't a bad thing if you were ordering it straight or just on the rocks but a steakhouse like Boodles should know how to make a quality Cosmo and Old Fashioned. We ordered the bread service which doesn't come with dinner and was an additional $6. Nothing to write home about even though they claim it's their homemade sourdough. Personally I didn't feel it was worth six dollars. We each got a Caesar salad and while the salad was a nice portion it was lacking in flavor and very little dressing. We waited for our waitress to come and check on us to ask for a side of additional dressing but she never came around. We ate the salad and finished our round of drinks. I was already skeptical on ordering a main course because everything up until this point had been a miss. Against my better judgment I ordered their signature item: Steak Diane prepared table side. My boyfriend ordered the 16 ounce ribeye. Both entrées come with a side of their lyonnaise potatoes. While we waited for our entrées we each ordered a glass of the house Cabernet. They do give a generous pour so that was a plus. After waiting almost an hour they started to prepare the Steak Diane. It was cool to watch them prepare it table side and after waiting almost an hour I was happily hungry with anticipation. I wish I could say it was halfway decent but it was overcooked. I ordered my steak medium rare in hopes that if it does come out a little more than medium rare it's still pink and flavorful. It was grey inside with no pink at all. Even the sauce it was cooked and was devoid of flavor. How is it possible with all the butter and the garlic they were using it was still lackluster? My boyfriend did say his steak was cooked perfectly medium rare and was excellent. The lyonnaise potatoes were also tasty. This was the best part of the entire dining experience other than leaving. After our waitress came back to check on us I told her I was not happy with my main course and that I would like to send it back. She asked if I wanted something else and I said no thank you I'll just take the check. They did take my steak off the bill since I had only tried one bite. My boyfriend had his steak packaged up to go. We just wanted to get out of there at that point. What was surprising is nobody seemed to care or even inquire what they could do better to improve the situation. Every staff member we encountered was very nonplus which makes me think this is not an isolated incident. After paying our bill we walked by a group of people coming in for dinner. They asked us how everything was and I said well we are leaving and if you leave now you can save yourself three hours of your time only to be disappointed.

The food is excellent no matter what you try. Some of my favorites include the patty melt, shrimp carbonara, and their Greek salad with gyro meat. They have a vast menu as well as a daily food and drink menu so there's always something new to try out. It's much more than just bar food too. They have a separate dining area for families as well as a pool table, darts, and club keno. It's a great place to meet some friends and watch the game. They also have a rewards program you can sign up for. Friday and Saturday night they have karaoke starting at 9 PM and music trivia bingo on Tuesday (I think) night. They get a decent crowd and sometimes it can be hard finding a couple spots at the bar but they usually will have a high top available if you prefer to sit in the bar area. I like that their kitchen stays open until midnight which is pretty rare these days. Bottom line you can't go wrong checking out On the Rocks!

We opted to share one scoop of the Lime-Cucumber-Mint Sorbet ($7). This is a dairy-free option, so the texture is slightly grainy compared to ice cream, but the flavor was perfect for summer.

Went with a service animal and was denied entering by the manager. I asked for the owner who the manager called, then I'm guessing explaining the service dogs duty, then allowed us to enter. If that wasn't awkward enough, it took about 15 minutes for the bar tender to acknowledge I was there. Once I got water, put in a request for a drink, it was about another 10 mins to finally ask if I wanted to put in an order. Now, it was busy-ish but not to the point that it should have taken as long as it did. However, being patient, I asked for the ribs, a Cesar wrap and Cajun fries. I got plane fries, the ribs were literally cold, not like sitting a while and they were lukewarm no, cold. The wrap had no dressing, no cheese just lettuce and protein. Odd and no Cajun fries just regular. So, when I pointed these things out, shower her the wrap, fries, told her the ribs were cold, she offered to remake them, but by this time it being about an hour into sitting around I was just ready to go. She did end up bringing out some extra fries that were Cajun, she did seem to be trying but there was a weird dynamic, like I was the one causing the inconvenience. She took away the food, fries, I asked for the bill, and the items she took away, were still on the bill. She then asked me if I wanted them taken off.. I said well I didn't eat them and I don't have them. She then said, "I offered to have them remade" I said yes but I do have to go it's been an hour at this point. I paid, left a tip and realized that the experience was one for the books. Idk if I'll try it again. It was very uninviting, not very welcoming, time consuming, and not accurate or accommodating. At the least I hope they do educate those on ADA Service animals. And I'm talking about real service animals, not just your friends well trained adorable dog. Like, ask the required questions, is the dog for a disability, what work/task does it preform. We'll see maybe if there's improvement next time... maybe.

Maybe once a month. Came here with a friend. Host was incredibly overwhelmed and snappy with us. Short haired, older woman. We get seated. I order a chicken salad. When it comes I notice the whole dish smells a little funky. I notice the manager walking by so I wave her down and mention it. She's rushing and barely hears me out. I continue to eat it with her reassurance. Later, I'm woken in the middle of the night, very sick. Vomited for so many hours I went to the hospital and had to get a shot of anti-emetic. Not even a matter of if I wanted to come back here (they acted slammed while the seating in the building holds maybe 50 people all at once and they have a fully kitted staff) It's a matter of health and safety on whether I CAN come back. Edit: food safe SENSITIVE. While most people can stomach the poor food handling nowadays, some other people cannot. Was the only meal I had eaten that day and threw it up whole and pink! Owner also replied to me saying they've had no other issues surrounding complaints on food safety when I know for a fact that is untrue because I found patrons on Facebook who have had a similar experience, expressed their concerns to the owner, and were completely brushed off the same way I am here.
