We were on a mini vacation and wanted to try the local restaurants. Well this one was awful. It had limited seating, the staff was unprofessional, it was dirty, the food was horrendous and to top it off our card got charged twice. Would not recommend to anyone, the local malt shop served better food. read more

Had dinner there last wee, just had burgers and cheese curds, curds ok burgers not very good, buns were very dry and no flavor on the burgers, I would not go back. read more

We got there a little before 1:00 pm on a beautiful, fall day so the patio was mostly full. The waitress stopped by a little after we sat down and got our drink and food orders. We were out enjoying our day in Taylor's Falls so were not in a hurry and raving about how nice of a day it was. Our positive attitudes and day were soon to be ruined when it took over 1 hour for our food to arrive and our drinks empty. It was further ruined when we were presented with the most lackluster burgers, ever: 1 single, thin, burnt beef patty with toppings thrown carelessly; stale, cold, bun; a handful of potato chips. The over 1 hr wait time doubled with a burger that makes Wendy's seem Michelin worthy in comparison made for one of the worst experiences I have had eating out. I'm not sure how the owner of this restaurant or the server can continue to operate without any shame to their customer service or food quality. They clearly make their money off of out-of-towners that fall prey to their lack of ethic. read more

Romayne's - Flamethrower burger with fries. - Burgers Near Me - Taylors Falls, Minnesota

My wife had a burger was perfect she let us taste it. Daughter said hers was ok. I went there specifically for the fish because Dave makes the best fish fry around and he serves it everyday not like allot of others fish fry Friday only. Nope Dave's fish is epic and he has malted vinegar behind the bar. Again one of the few places. FYI if your selling fish and don't know Google long John silver. They had malted vinegar on every table. So asked for my 2 piece fish. Also malted vinegar. Waitress said she looked they don't have malted vinegar do you still want the fish. No I do not. She said I asked the other waitress and were out of malted vinegar. So she brought me a menu and I begrudgingly ordered a burger. Roymane burger. It was terrible. The meat had a rough taste. Like I said wife smiled and said taste mine taste like salt and pepper. She wasn't lying hers was one of the best I ever tasted. Now for service it's with a smile and the wait staff keep your glass full even if you're just drinking water. They have an amazing full bar and wonderful beer selection. Ambiance is a wonderfully warm local bar where the cities meets the locals. I'm ending with this. My family and I have eaten here for 7 years and I have absolutely never had anything close to this experience at Romaynes. The food is always amazing! read more

Typical bar and grill on the Saint Croix river. Nothing spectacular. Food was ok. Service was ok. Nothing there compels me to make the drive to come back for more. Ordered a couple of burgers and drinks for a Sunday lunch. Cajun burger was not as flavorful as I would have liked but the western burger was good. Burgers don't come with fries but rather chips so if you want fries have to pay $2 extra, which we did and meh. Had to douse them in salt. Went inside to use the restroom and it looked like it had seen better days, the floor was all sticky and this was at 11 in the morning. Yuck! read more

Romayne's - Menu as of 09-03-2022 - Burgers Near Me - Taylors Falls, Minnesota

See all

We came inside, they had blocked off every other table for safety measures. It stops right there. The waitress was literally in our face taking drink orders, no facemask. I tossed on my face mask to give her a sign. She came back to take our food orders, still closer than ever. We decided to sit outside as it was pretty cramped inside. None of the waitresses or staff wore facemasks, no sanitizing sprays/wipes in sight. The staff didn't wear gloves while Handling food. Don't think they even have them inside the "outdoor grill/kitchen". We ask for a straw and this guy brings out a unwrapped straw, no gloves, and puts it in my glass. ***Found a surprise in our cheese curds. Someone's hair. Had the staff take it back. Would not eat here again or recommend to anyone. read more

Romayne's - a pile of fried food - Burgers Near Me - Taylors Falls, Minnesota

Under the trees on a summer day, with good (pub)food and brews-what could be better? They are fancier places here downtown, but outdoor seating under the trees and spread out, just seems healthier in the long run. The Pig Wings were perfect-succulent and smoky flavored-with an amazingly great bbq sauce. The deep-fried fish was non-greasy and a huge portion. read more

Food nope on the burger. I am pretty sure it is a frozen patty that came in a huge box a step above Fast Food but just one step. Over cooked, no juice dry as a bone and betting the bacon was reheated (bacon also extremely salty) do not recommend as we ate 4 hours ago and pretty sure that burger is cemented to my stomach lining. The Goat Saloon next door is sooo much better. We just thought we would give this place a try as it smelled good when we passed it on the bike and such a nice day to sit outside. The smell was better than our burgers. The only thing dryer than this burger is burnt toast or the turkey served in the National Lampoons Christmas Vacation movie... Not sure the waitress wanted to be there and never checked in us and we had to flag her for our check. It was nice to sit ouside though read more

Definitely a nice patio for Taylor Falls area, waitress was great, they have ample serving sizes but the food was average. Unfortunately, the burger patties and buns were a bit dry. I would not rule this place out and I, personally, will be back for another try. read more

Stellar vibes. Great outdoor seating, quality food. Feels like a lobby in a chill video game, good place to figure out the next move for the night or to make Romaynes the prime destination. "The cook did a good job", says my brother. Bathroom is available but under construction. read more

Great food & Friendly Bartender! Outdoor dining in the summer. We enjoyed our meals including the huge pieces of fish & awesome burgers!

I came here with my entire family and I have never been more disturbed with the quality of food and the amount we had to pay for it. We waited an hour for the food to come out and it was cold the fish was brown and rotten the burgers were almost inedible. it was somehow almost full and only 2 people ran the restaurant. I would highly recommend skipping over this place and going somewhere else no matter how hungry you are. read more

Enjoyed an absolutely delicious lunch here! The Cajun and cheese chicken sandwich was one of the best chicken sandwiches I've ever had. Fresh, covered in pepper jack cheese, and topped with Cajun spices. Yum! The patio is large, service was fast, and prices are reasonable. read more

place is a rip off. burgers were so well done basically burnt.$7.00 for a side of onion rings when a basket is $9.00. which is what we tried to order but our oh so helpful waitress thought she'd make a better suggestion to just skip the chips and get them with our burgers on the side. menu said $4.00 for a side. our waitress sucked. spilled my bloody on my leg. no help with a napkin. go up the street to the drive in place. less annoying than this lame place. read more

We chose Romayne's even after seeing the low yelp score, because they were the only place within walking distance that had a nice patio we could drink beer on. Unfortunately the patio and the beer were the only nice aspects of the experience. We both ordered burgers and split an appetizer order of cheese curds. Probably 1/3 of the cheese curds were hollow, with no cheese in them at all, just breading. But even the ones that had cheese in them weren't that good, all very small, and they just tasted like typical cafeteria frozen cheese curds. To make it worse, the ranch and the ketchup they serve tastes like the cheapest off products they could find. They also give you condiment packets, like you'd get at a gas station if you ask for mustard or mayo. The burgers were pretty awful as well. Flavorless, over cooked meat. Buns that reminded me of high school lunches, and served with some stale chips on the side. Aside from the food, our server was kind and attentive, and the beer was cold and cheap enough. I'll know for next time to get food somewhere else, and then come to Raymond's for a drink on the patio. read more

Romayne's - Burgers Near Me - Taylors Falls, Minnesota

I stopped here this afternoon after hiking Interstate State Park. I had my dog with me. I asked the waitress if they allowed pets on their patio. She said no so I asked if she knew anywhere else in town that allowed dogs on their patio. She said she didn't but that she'd ask. So she popped her head into their outside kitchen. The man in there haughtily told me and the waitress no, it's illegal to have pets on the patio. I said that was odd because I do it often. I then got sternly told that it is a state law enacted in 2007 by the health department and that he had no problem showing me the law. I stated that I wasn't arguing with him...I was simply commenting that I thought it was odd since I do it all of the time. I was then told, again haughtily, that they must be the only place that follows the law then. Never again will I go here. Never. I asked a simple question. Made a simple statement about the answer. Never once did I argue, raise my voice or even act jilted. I accepted the answer immediately and just asked if they knew of any alternatives. Whether a law or not, I asked if dogs were allowed because I know sometimes they aren't and as a respectful owner of a well behaved dog I want to make sure I'm following the rules. The man I dealt with at Romaynes was rude, out of line and argumentative. I highly suggest you go spend your money elsewhere. Somewhere that they treat other human beings NICELY and as though they give a damn. I left my dog in the car and went and ate somewhere else. read more

Pros: -The waitress let me order the kids' chicken strip basket. It was the perfect amount of food. -Reasonably priced food (less than $12 for a drink and lunch) -Outdoor patio -Inexpensive beer (at least compared to the Twin Cities' prices that I'm used to) Cons: -Mediocre food. They claim to have the "best burger in the valley." My friend who ordered it would disagree. -Extremely slow service. It took over an hour to get our food (burger, chicken strips, brat, & fries). We finished our drinks well before our food arrived and the waitress didn't check back in to see if we wanted more. They seemed to be understaffed on the wait and kitchen side of things. Verdict: While this wasn't the worst place I've ever eaten, I won't be returning here on my next trip to Taylors Falls. read more

We were there a few weeks back. The place was fairly busy. Our server was nice, but after waiting over a half hour for our burgers it dawned on us that none of the employees were wearing masks. At this point I couldn't wait to get out of there. Our food came the burgers were dry and burnt. I suggest you continue further down the street to the A&W if you want burgers. We come to Taylor's Falls often. No interest in coming back here. I have already told 10 people about the dry food, service and lack of regard for public health. read more

We were on the MN side camping, and decided to venture into town for lunch. The outdoor seating is this place biggest attraction. The draft beer selection was meh, the food quality was meh, and the service was double meh. Lots of Meh. We all had burgers, they were not consistently cooked. Mine was good, my wife's was burnt on the outside and mooing on the in. The bacon however was surprisingly good, nice thick cut, good salt, heavy smoke. The french were reasonably good. The server was nearly impossible to find most of the time, which meant lots of dry moments. read more

This is crazy. Do yourself a favor and pick a different spot. My friends and I stopped here for lunch after hiking around across the street at 1:30. Our party of 6 waited 30 minutes before a waitress took our order for drinks and food. The drinks came out about 15 minutes later (one bloody, 2 bottles beers and waters). Our food took 50 minutes to appear. During that time we were never asked if we'd like refills, or spoken to at all by any staff. Our appetizers never even showned up. When our meals arrived, it was mediocre and one burger was cold. Our waitress discounted the cold burger 50%. It was busy, but not THAT packed to excuse this kind of service. We ordered fried food and burgers, nothing fancy that would take some time in the kitchen. Our experience seemed par for the course. We overheard other people mention the long wait for food, and watched one little girl have a total hunger meltdown. read more

On a beautiful day exploring Taylors Falls, this is the only outdoor area to get a burger. So it's hoppin'. Sadly, it's not worth the wait. I know they were ridiculously busy, but there are so many great burger joints in MN that a dry burger plus a dry bun is inexcusable. Everyone at my table shared my sentiment. It took forever to get our check and get out of there, and that's all we wanted to do. There are a few other places down the road. Try those because this place is only good if you sit at the bar inside and have a few beers to get out of the summer heat. And the bathrooms are gross. PS: It really does pain me to write a bad review, so I hope the powers that be try to improve the food quality. read more

Sports bar with giant patio. Got the Romayne's burger on a quiet Thursday and are outside. It was ridiculously massive, and was the type of burger that the toppings are possibly tastier than the burger itself. I should never have upgraded from chips to fries, as once I had the burger, I could hardly eat a single fry. Will definitely return for more burger goodness. read more

Romayne's - The Romayne's house burger. MASSIVE AND DELICIOUS - Burgers Near Me - Taylors Falls, Minnesota

Ended up here after the pizza shop I wanted to try was closed. Other than the kids crying a few tables over it was a pretty great experience. Service was a lot true slow but she was also taking care of ten tables so I'm not to upset about that. Side note the fish is very large. I'm a big guy and the "half day fish fry" filled me up. read more

I head to Romayne's once a year to see my boyfriend's dad's band play at the annual city festival that they have. This summer, lightning struck the bar just as we arrived, there were firemen everywhere within minutes, and the show had to be canceled since there were tornadoes in the area. (I'd like to point out that we drove through said tornadoes to get there, that's how fun it is.) Since Romayne's is cool, they had the band back last weekend to do a make up show. I really love the bartenders here, they are no-nonsense chicks who I think I'd be friends with if I saw them more often. Very friendly, and always quick to spot the one in the crowd who's craning their neck to try to catch their eye and get a drink. (One of them served my dad blended margaritas all night without rolling her eyes once, which pretty much deserved a medal.) They have a food stand out in the "yard" (it is fenced in...) that serves the most giant walleye sandwich that I've ever laid eyes on, and their onion rings are fabulous. Didn't love the tartar sauce, but the sandy was so good it didn't need it. The fire pit was a nice touch, I've always only been during warmer months so I was quite thankful for it on Saturday night when temps were hovering around 40. Finally, I'd like to share the fact that the ladies' is a room with two toilets in it that are not contained by stalls. Nope, they're just freestanding in the room a couple of feet away from one another. Better hope you're in there with your best friend or sister! It's hilarious. (Yes, the door locks). There are already countless reasons to go to Taylors Falls, so just add this to the list the next time you're there. read more

It was a dark and stormy evening when we arrived. This is our second and final visit romayne's. Our first visit last year left us very disappointed , after sitting in a waiting room for over 5 minutes and no service. Upon our arrival I had to use the men's room, service was very fast. it may have more to do with this a female alone. We got our drinks an appetizer very prompt, warm beer. We had a couple of burgers and french fries , it tasted fine. To get a second beer I had to flag down the bartender who seem to be practicing his comedy act. I've been asked for a couple to go container and our bill, containers arrived very fast. but then I noticed he's back to the comedy routine and we don't have a bill. I have to go back up and ask for a bill, not really a major task but it should be brought to me. $42.89, I gave him 50 . we waited and waited and waited for my change so I could tip him . but he was too busy with the comedy routine, so again I had to approach him and I asked if I could get some change I could tip you. I was thinking about $8 so I'd have to give up a little bit more than my change but since I had to go through the extra effort $2 and possibly the quarter he dropped of mine on the floor. Fool me once shame on me fool me twice shame on you. I will never return! And such a nice looking place from the outside fairly decent inside. In fact in all of Taylors falls there probably isn't a better place, truly a shame business people do not take care of their own customers. I would think they would if they liked money. read more

Stopped in for a beer and that was enough. My first impression of Romaynes was that it is a little rough around the edges. Pictures knocked off the wall, a broken light fixture above the pool table, and a loose door knob just to mention a few. My girlfriend also mentioned the strong smell of fryer grease. I'm guessing they don't get a lot of visitors during the winter months because the part they had open was very small. I think you could fit 30 people in there max. I'm sure its better during the summer months when the patio is open. read more

Drinks were great but I could have made a much better burger at home. Burgers were thin and dry with no flavor on a big bready bun. The "our seasoned chips" described in the menu were Ruffles. Not the homemade chips we were expecting. Definitely not going back. read more

Total dive! Ordered two drinks and received one when a group that the waitress knew came in acting all rowdy. At that point the waitress could of cared less about me and left me standing there with just the one of the two drinks I ordered. But hey, I got myself a free beer out of the deal before we went across the street for better service. read more

We got 3 burgers and 2 out of 3 were still raw in the middle with blood soaking into the bun. We had each taken a bite out of the burger before we noticed it was raw. We sent them back. She placed the existing burgers back on the grill and returned them to us back on the blood soaked buns. I then broke my burger in half to check it and it was still raw. She proceeded to tell us that the burger patties were just made and didn't have time to drain the blood out so that is why they looked that way. I don't think she understood proper food cooking, cleanliness, or customer service. She had us pay for the burgers we did not eat. read more

Romayne's - Burger raw x 2. Waiter put the existing burgers back on the grill and brought it back again like this. - Burgers Near Me - Taylors Falls, Minnesota

Everything was fine until I looked down at my table and noticed that everything was being served in or made of plastic. Glasses for water, glasses for cocktails, forks, knives, spoons, baskets, packets... I am talking everything! I proceeded to ask our waiter if the restaurant recycled. She had no clue whether or not they did. Likely, an indicator they don't. So close to such protectable nature too. Interesting approach. read more

Went here for a quick bite during a road trip from the cities. It's a typical burger joint but with tons of outdoor seating. We had quick service and everything was good with plenty of beer choices. It's nothing to write home about but with limited options in the area, it's a recommended place to stop in good weather. read more

The food alone earns this place two stars, but the pleasant outdoor seating area is its saving grace. Umbrella covered tables, shaded by trees with birds hopping around in search of unfinished food; bet they were glad for our family! I won't be back. The burgers were dry and without any noticeable seasoning. The fries were crinkle cut, straight out of the freezer. Yuck. Drinks were in smallish cups and the place was understaffed. Our poor waitress was unable to keep up with moderate dinner crowd. On the upside, their brats and buns were good with very tasty bacon. Nothing I would pay for again. read more

This gets two stars, strictly for the fish basket, it was a generous portion and nicely breaded. If you are looking for a burger, don't bother. I had the ragin cajin, which was neither. Was supposed to be cajun seasoning with blue cheese dressing. The burger was dry and barely seasoned, tbe dressing was runny with no blue cheese. I wondered if it was ranch dressing, but even then...no flavor. I was bummed. Then there was the service. Our server got lost a lot and then server number two started with her Daisy Duke shorts and cowboy boots, just seemed like the servers were a bit of a hot mess. The guy cooking in the shack had to bring us our food because the server disapeared so often. At least he was a nice guy! Took forever to get the check and it wasn't correct. So another wait... read more

Nice people. Mediocre food for a bar. For claiming to have charbroiled burgers, they sure didn't seem like it. Also, the burgers were overdone. If I'm not asked what temperature I'd like, I assume it will be cooked to taste best, which in no sane person's mind is well done, but let's assume it is--by the time it is well done, it ought to also be pretty well charbroiled. ;) We also went to The Drive-In on this trip. I'd recommend going there instead unless you desperately need booze (and then eat at The Drive-In and walk back to the bar. read more

I to came here based on there "famous burgers and bloody mary's" I was SO dissapointed!! I sent an email to the manager and have not heard back, instead of re writing everything I felt the email was best out here as it stated everything. It is too bad.. place could be great! Hello, I wanted to inform you about our experience we had today. We came there based on your reviews and were expecting amazing....well, not so much. We arrived around 1:00 and we ordered the brat burger and California w/ cheese. ( and two bloodys). About 15 minutes later we received our drinks....over 30 minutes went by And we asked About our food. Well it came about 10 minutes later, cold. Our server brought it to the kitchen to have it re made. I had cut my burger in half ...so hear is where it gets funny..the cook decided to not re make it, but heat up our food. Then send back only half my burger...even my mayo was re heated. Gross! Our server was very nice, but ick! I just wanted you to know. Wow!! I was really bummed cause the food looked great!! But I will never know because we will never return. read more

The waitress even though short staffed delivered well. Bloody Mary was average but beef stick and banana pepper was a great touch. Cheese curds were fresh, awesome and squeaky on the teeth. Cajun burger was small (half the bun size) and over cooked. I like their sitting arrangement outside. read more
