    First time to the Roosevelt Room, based on friend's recommendation. Very grateful for the referral as it was a great experience. The drink menu is extensive with lots of variety and interesting selections. Very impressed with the quality of the cocktails we enjoyed that evening. Will definitely be a return guest!

    Good spot for cocktails with an extensive list of options. It was great to sit at the bar and watch the mixologist do his craft work.

    If you love experiencing cocktails by bartenders who are passionate about the craft, this is the place to be. There are so many options, it’s hard to choose a couple to try in one sitting and you’ll want to return to enjoy more of the menu. The food menu is limited but done extremely well. Perfectly seasoned salads and crispy Rueben goodness!

    I’ve been going to this bar since it open. Food and drink are still wonderful, but the service was horrible. Food took forever and we didn’t even get a few things we ordered. Considering how long it took to get our food, we didn’t want to risk letting them know they missed a few things.
