SJ was amazing. First time coming and loved the restaurant. The waiter was amazing, incredibly respectful and super friendly. We came for my dad’s birthday and SJ would go out of his way to make sure we were happy. 1000% recommend.

I ordered an old fashioned drink with extra black cherries. I was brought a glass half filled and one cherry. I looked at the bartender and asked, " why is the cup only half filled." To which he replied, " I didn't want to fill it with ice." I also reminded him I asked for extra cherries. He then took the glass filled it with ice and added 2 more cherries. Very disappointed. I understand bartenders are given pour instructions. But I have ordered this drink from this location before and this service was unacceptable. Given the amount of steak houses in Gainesville. You would think they would do better.

I dont normally order steak but decided to try the kids meal. It was great. Our server was knowledgeable and friendly. We enjoyed this visit very much.

Started with the potato skins they were awesome, just wished they would add scallions. I had the 12oz ribeye combo with shrimp, cooked perfectly. Hubby had the 14 oz prime rib and added shrimp. He did have to send back just to warm it up a little. But the taste was delicious. They don't have cocktail sauce, but our our wonderful waitress made us a batch. And the rolls are to die for. Needless to say, we had leftovers and our dogs loved them.

My husband and I were sat a both where the air conditioning ducting above were we sat was dripping condensation. I asked the waitress if we could move and she moved us to the next both down. The hostess proceeded to set another two customers there. One was an elderly lady which did not sit right with me. The dinner we ordered was a 16oz Fort Worth Ribeye with grilled onions and mushrooms loaded sweet potato and seasoned rice. The food was served warm but the Ribeye was not served with the grilled onions or mushrooms I let the server Kelly know she offered to get us some. Kelly did stop by our table several times to make sure everything was good or if we needed anything. I rated 4 star due to not being attentive we she picked up our food from the kitchen to make sure it was correct.

So great! Our steaks were perfectly cooked. Whoever cooked them damn sure did that thing on them! They were amazing. Probably top 3 steaks I've ever had. Service was impeccable. Didn't have to wait or ask for refills. Our server was polite, friendly and gave amazing service. I can't find anything negative to say about this visit. It was great! Can't wait to go back!

The mashed potatoes are real potatoes. They have a wonderful flavor that ice and fluffy appropriate amount of gravy the country fried steak is not appealing at all. It's overcooked chewy. The gravy is nice. Has a smoky flavor please. 6 oz. Steak is small, sweet potato like it could have been cooked a little longer than it was actually. It's cold. Not warm at all. Steak is tough and well seasoned steak is almost well done? Medium well the red raspberry lemonade is amazing. I would highly recommend The waitress was fighting and friendly and attentive to our table. The rolls should have been warm but they had a good flavor for the price you pay I would not recommend coming here The manager did come by and ask if everything was okay. I preferred not to cause a scene, so my wife set up. Yes everything was okay.

We went with a party of four, and two of us had the bone-in ribeye steak. They grilled them perfectly. My wife loves the sirloin, and my sister loves their chicken. We had great food, good service, and fun. Thanks, Texas Roadhouse!
