The food and ambiance were a one of a kind experience. Very rarely do I experience food that brings out an emotion of such joy and surprise and this place brought that without any hype or expectation. Our server was fun, friendly, and read the table perfectly with great timing and great knowledge of the food and place. This place is worth the trip from half way across the country. Well worth the price as well. The complementary valet parking was a lovely surprise for us as well. Spent around $100 to $150 for each person but had 2 to 3 cocktails each to go with each part of our meal. The menu apparently changes with the season. I cannot wait to return again!

Always amazing dinner and drinks at Roshambo. We shared the Bucket of chicken which was awesome. Great biscuits and sides to go along with perfectly seasoned and cooked chicken plus the loaded tots and burger was a huge hot. Thank you Roshambo team for another great experience!

Atmosphere was comfortable. Was my first time here, came for the Christmas Eve buffet and enjoyed ourselves. Service and staff was very welcoming. A little pricey for the buffet giving the amount of options but I guess the quality of the dishes made up for it. Paid $120 for 2 ppl before tax and gratuity. Will have to come in for regular service. The food was delicious enough to make me want to come back.
