Lindley Roadhouse

Very upbeat atmosphere. Very reasonable prices. My rib eye steak was very good. Chef made a special chicken marsalla dish for the 3 ladies in our party. They loved it. A few new restaurant «wrinkles» to iron out, but nothing major. A return trip is in the very near future.

I came here with my parents on a Friday night for dinner, it looks just like a remodeled house filled up with tables and booths! They have around 6 beers on draft with a pretty good system that keeps the lines cold — our choice for the night was Sam Adams Winter Lager. Both of my parents got the fish — broiled, not fried — and were very impressed with the flavor and size of the dish. The only complaint is that the fries were a little under cooked, they were the wide steak fry style and can be a pain in the butt to get just a little crisp to them, so it was passable. Friday night is the fish fry night (I forget what the special is?) and seemed to be the popular choice and looked great, I went against the grain and had the BBQ Brisket plate. It was quite a pile of brisket with a tangy and sweet sauce. It had a bit of a zip, but the flavor was great. I was able to finish it all with part of the side of coleslaw, but it was a very filling meal for a pretty reasonable price. A lot of meat on the brisket, not too much fat. The coleslaw had very good flavor as well, not a vinegar based, but a creamy coleslaw.
I did see on the menus that they have Creekstone Farms beef, which is some of the best quality I’ve ever had from my years working in kitchens and as a bartender, so that’s a plus. All in all, the food was above our expectations, the beer was perfect and the price was perfect.
