Reviews Summary

Kelsey's Original Roadhouse is praised for its delicious food, particularly burgers and ribs, and the excellent service provided by attentive staff like Sara and Mallory. However, some diners find the music too loud and certain cocktails overly sweet. The atmosphere is lively and great for watching sports, though it can get a bit noisy during peak times. The portion sizes are consistently noted as generous and satisfying.

"Food was great. Service was top notch. Now someone needs to roll me out the door cuz I can’t walk after eating all that. (Missing from photos: Nachos… so good. Never lasted long enough to get a picture.)"

Vince Gibbons

"We had a reservation for a party of 6 adults 3 kids, and Alyssa, our server was amazing for our Mother’s Day feast!

We had the chicken potato skins as and app! Super yum! I can’t do even Cajun spice so everything was spice free as much as possible. My fajitas were delish!

Was a bit loud hence the 3 star atmosphere but that’s expected on a full house type of occasion and the restaurant style itself.

Thank you! And Happy Mother’s Day do any and all forms of mommas through Kelsey’s! 💐"

Melissa Squires

"The margarita was way too sweet, tasted like kool-aid. The nachos were broiled, veggies and all, served with the most meager amount of meat alongside a cup of “queso” which was melted, chipotle spiced gloop. The broccoli tasted like it was heated up in a plastic bag in the microwave. The servers were very polite and responsive."
