    Stopped in this past Sunday for brunch for the first time and I'm glad i did! Everything was fresh and very tasty. We will definitely return and bring more guest. The ambiance was perfect and the playlist they were playing was right on par with the service!

    chicken salad on flaky croissant.  Yummy!

    4 of us arrived around 1:00 on the Sunday during Memorial Day weekend. It was pretty quiet, with a few tables occupied. We chose to sit outside on the back deck, under the middle section which has a bar and covered seating. There are also 2 person tables along the edge for those who want sun. SERVICE: Emily was a wonderful server! She was attentive, friendly and very accommodating. She knew the menu well. FOOD: As this restaurant is also a butcher market, the quality of the meats is top notch. The roast beef and pastrami were fresh, flavorful and no gristle to stick between your teeth. The chicken salad was made perfectly, wonderful flavor on a flaky croissant. The wedge salad has a unique, light cilantro dressing. I prefer a more hearty tasting dressing like blue cheese, however, this is personal preference. The sandwiches are so full of meat, one can be easily split between 2 people. Price range is $14-16 for most sandwiches. BAR: The outdoor bar was not occupied, but it looked like a very good selection. The Chalk Hill chardonnay was an average pour, $13/glass. ATMOSPHERE: Inside decor is welcoming and very cool the way the bricks are integrated in the design. Outside is beautiful and clean. My only recommendation is to swap out the metal stools to seating that is more comfy. We all had to stretch our legs a bit at one point or another during the meal due to hardness of the seat.

    This was our second time visiting The Roe, and we were fortunate to have Travis as our server again. He is so attentive, and made sure everything was perfect for us. He brought our kids lemonade refills without even asking. He is seriously the BEST. We can't wait to come back.

    Smash burgers and fries with garlic aioli

    The service was great! We went on a Saturday afternoon and got their smash burgers with fries. Everything tasted amazing and I would definitely come back

    I have been here twice. Both times amazing! I am in love with their sea salt caramel chocolate soufflé dessert. My family really enjoyed their food. The small seasonal charcuterie board was delicious! Their in house made cheeses and salamis were exquisite. All the entrees I've had and tasted were also delicious. My niece loved their duck and it was her first time having it. I can't wait to go back again for the third time. Wish more restaurants like this in Monroe. Finally a place that breaks the monotony of chains and serves delicious southern fare and gives it some flare.

    Great brisket sandwich and floppy beef fat fries

    New to the area and found The Roe as a promising spot to enjoy a short drive with lunch and a drink while exploring our new surroundings. Overall looking forward to returning and trying additional items on both the food and cocktail side. While service and cocktails were good, there were some minor issues with the kitchen that would keep it from a full five stars. We ordered one of the specials of the day (Smoked Brisket sandwich on amazing bread) which was great. Ordered the beef fat fries to go with the sandwich. The fries were clearly under cooked . . . all were floppy soft and a couple weren't cooked through. We also ordered the banana pudding and while it was great, and perhaps we're not keen on the whole banana pudding thing, but I'm not sure I find black bananas appealing whatsoever. Tell me if I'm wrong, and I'll adjust my perception, but being greeted with a healthy chunk of black banana on top just wasn't appealing to us. Overall it was good enough to make a return visit and hoping our minor complaints were an anomaly.

    What a great place for a date night. Located in Downtown Monroe, we enjoyed being able to go to a nice restaurant without a drive into Atlanta. The food, drinks, and dessert were all amazing! So were the service and ambiance. Can't wait to go back!

    Stopped in the Saturday of the car show. So we expected to wait, but we're seated immediately…read more Unfortunately that's about the only thing that went right. Server stopped to take our drink order about 10 minutes later. Drinks arrived and we placed our very simple scoop and serve orders of pulled pork. Then we waited. And waited. Watched as others who ordered 30 minutes after us received their food. I was in the restaurant industry for 20 years, and I know bbq is 90% scoops and serve. Asked the server and she said it'll be out in 2 minutes. (Standard response). 15 minutes later my lady friend had had enough, as did I. Asked for the gm, who I assume wasn't available. Then our cold food arrived. And we were charged the full amount without any sort of apology. Almost 2 hours we waited for simple bbq. Here's my advice for the restaurant. When your kitchen or servers can't produce. Your managers need to "hold the door". Put the door on a 20-30 minute wait so you can catch up. Obviously there's a lack in management here, or at least there was on that day. They continued to seat folks and I kept asking myself (why?)

    When Pigs Fly is a must stop when you're in the area of Athens, GA. Situated in the charming town…read moreof Monroe, it is the quintessential bbq spot. Old fashioned interior, and a simple yet extremely satisfying menu! The Turkey Plate was outstanding! I paired it with the sweet and spicy bbq sauces. Just the meat alone, was enough! Two sides come with the plate, and the macaroni and cheese, and side salad were deeelish! Last but not least, this spot is run by the nicest folks you could find. Friendly, smiling, and serving up amazing food with a Southern twinkle in their eyes! Five stars...BOOM! There it is!
