Kelsey was built in a old mill which gives it a really unique atmosphere. The food was really good and hot when served. I had the Cajun fijitas. Our server was very friendly and efficient.

We had spinach dip, which last time was very spicy. Chelsey made sure it was perfect this time! My quesadilla arrived with chicken and i'm a vegetarian, She was so sweet and also took care to correct things for us. It was a pleasure to eat here even though things weren't perfect. Thank you so much Chelsey for making everything enjoyable. We will be back and highly recommend this location!

I recently visited Kelsey's Roadhouse and had an absolutely wonderful experience, thanks to their amazing service and delicious food. Chelsey, our server, went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was perfect. She was attentive, friendly, and made great recommendations. One of the highlights of our meal was the spinach dip—it was incredible! Creamy, flavorful, and served with perfectly crisp tortilla chips, it’s a must-try for anyone visiting. The rest of our meal was just as delightful, but the exceptional service from Chelsey and the standout spinach dip really made the night special. If you're looking for a place with great food and even better service, Kelsey's Roadhouse is the spot. Highly recommend!

Came here after a long day with the family & gotta say, it was great food, service and friendly staff. Glad to see it started getting busy after we arrived because this place seems like a local gem especially with the rooftop patio. Adian was our server and was superb. Definitely coming back again (maybe not with the kids though lol)

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Kelseys, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. We started with the cheese spinach dip accompanied by fried pita, which was a perfect blend of creamy and crispy. It was the ideal appetizer to kick off our meal. For the main course, we tried a variety of dishes. The Beyond Meat burger was a standout, delivering all the satisfying flavors of a classic burger but with a plant-based twist. The steak fajitas were another highlight, with tender, flavorful steak and a delightful mix of peppers and onions. We also couldn't resist the boneless chicken wings, opting for both the honey garlic sauce and the Cajun dry rub. The wings were perfectly cooked, juicy, and packed with flavor. What truly elevated our experience was the exceptional service. The staff was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made us feel right at home. Their hospitality added a personal touch that made our visit even more enjoyable. Overall, every dish we tried was delicious, and the welcoming atmosphere made for a memorable dining experience. I highly recommend Kelseys to anyone looking for great food and outstanding service. This place is definitely worth a visit!
