Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews

Two Brothers Roundhouse offers a "great" dining experience with "outstanding" food and a delightful selection of craft beers. The restaurant's "fantastic" service complements its vibrant atmosphere, perfect for pre-theater meals or casual gatherings. While some aspects like the gnocchi and restrooms need improvement, its outdoor seating and historical charm remain major draws.

Party of five having dinner before a show at the Paramount Theater. Somewhat limited menu, but everything we ordered was very good. Drinks were delicious too. Servers were attentive and personable. Our server changed mid-meal, but they both did a wonderful job. Sometimes that hand-off can leave me feeling abandoned, not this time.

Beer is great. However, the food is quite average to fair. Quality is not what it used to be. The menu on open table isn’t what’s available at the restaurant today n some areas such as wine availability.

I have been here multiple times and each time it is worse than the last. Reception desk staff is unfriendly and inattentive. Food is mediocre. My friend ordered the gnocchi and it arrived as a flavorless SOUP; it was swimming in sauce! I ordered a cheeseburger. The server asked me what type of cheese I would like. When the bill came, I was surprised to see a $1 charge for the cheddar cheese. I mentioned this to her and she just shrugged her shoulders. The restrooms are rundown and dirty with cracked mirrors, broken faucets, overflowing garbage cans, and unfilled toilet paper dispensers. Liquor drinks are overpriced and inconsistent -- I was charged $11 at the bar and $10 at a table for the same rum and coke. Generally, the staff seems unhappy and does not emphasize customer service. But alas, it has great outdoor seating so you will find me there again next summer with my usual hope that improvements have been made.

Service was fantastic even though it was a busy New Year's Eve. 4 of 5 in our party said their food was outstanding - just 1 who ordered the steak & fries said his steak wasn't great, that's why the food got a 4. The cocktails were fun and very well made - a bit pricey but pretty much on par with other places in the area. Lots of things on both the food and drink menus that I wanted to try, so will definitely be going back!

We took our family with elementary school-aged children for dinner after watching Frozen at the Paramount Theater. We had a great table near the holiday tree and our server was extremely pleasant and prompt for the number of guests at dinner. The food options were varied and really tasty - and the kids devoured the mac & cheese and pasta with red sauce. I ordered the Fall Salad, which was delicious.

Went here before a show at Paramount. It was very crowded with diners coming after the 1:00 show and before the 5:30 show in addition to normal traffic. It did not seem like the restaurant was equipped to handle such large volumes and turn tables quickly. I would recommend this restaurant anytime, however plan for more time if hitting Paramount crowds. (For reference - we waited 15 minutes in line to even check in for our reservation, took 15 minutes for a server to come to our table, and another 25 to get food after we ordered)
