My wife and I went the week it opened, and being that it was the first week I certainly expected some flubs, naturally...but, this place blew us both away. The beer of Rockmill we've had at their Brewery so it was no change, beer was top notch, dare I say, my favorite of this area in general...it's just so unique and such a rarity here in central Ohio to get a good Belgian type of beer, let alone its LOCAL. The real surprise w Rockmill Tavern was their cuisine. It blew us both away. The burger was no regular burger...beyond juicy; it was perfection!! Also got the brussel sprouts as a side and they were the best I've had in a long time w a mustard type of sauce on them...it wasn't overpowering, perfectly brought the flavor out! My wife has a weakness of alllllways getting crispy chicken/hot chicken dishes, so, naturally she got that. Even though she's a super fan of spice, she loved it. Noted how fresh everything tasted. Bravo...kudos to you guys for such a fantastic meal on their first week!!!

I have eaten here about five times and have been pleased every time. I typically go with the crunchy dynamite and summertime roll. I am giving it five stars because it is inexpensive, tastes great and is very convenient to my house! They are also very friendly. I always call ahead and typically it is a 20 minute wait. It is also a good idea to call if you plan to head over there after 7 pm to make sure they are still open, they close when they run out of ingredients. If you like sushi, you have to check it out. OH, almost forgot to mention, the convenience store that shares the same parking lot has an impressive beer selection for a small place, so you can buy some beer, get your sushi and enjoy it at the picnic tables.

Great food, but pricey. The upcharge for swapping in a veggie patty was almost $5. It was good, but that was a bit surprising to see. Fries were great, the burger was really good, and the shakes were amazing. I would hesitate to return based on cost, but, again, the food is great.

Amazing. This is one of my favorite places to eat a great breakfast with some mimosas. Their bloody Mary's are delicious as well. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Just be ready to be packed in like a sardine. Avoid if you're claustrophobic.

This Brewpub seems to either be great for people or really bad and I am not sure why. I have been here on many occasions and always had a great time drinking their great beer and eating good food. Recently I was at Yaletown Brewing for a Stag party and it was a great experience. Right from the beginning the service was great we were sat very fast at our reserved seats and the server was there instantly to take our drink orders. Things stayed like this all night with the food and more drinks always showing up very promptly with the server checking on us just enough not to be intrusive. At one point the manager came by with a tray of free shots for our table of 15 (plus or minus one or two). They even had a magician that night that came by and did some great tricks and illusions. Their in house brewed craft beer is great with a standard menu of an IPA, stout, pale ale, lager and a black and tan (mix of stout and pale ale sooo yummy!). They also have seasonal beer that change during the year although they did not have any this night. All the beer is full flavored nothing like the big breweries swill. If cheap swill is what you consider beer do not come here as they do not sell any other beer than their own brews. Everyone's food looked, smelled and tasted great as well! I personally had the meatloaf as I could not decide and the guy beside me said to get it. The power of drunken suggestion worked and I am glad it did. If all meatloaf tasted like this I would order it more often! If you want to take some of their beer home you are able to get a growler filled with any of their beer just ask your server that night. If you do not want to stay in you can even just go in and get your growler filled!

Is it the best sushi around? No. But is it satisfying for the price? Most definitely. This was my teenage sushi haunt, and now that I am back in Boston, I was happy to discover that it still lived up to my expectations. The first and most important evaluation of sushi is the rice, and Ginza rice definitely passes my test. The fish was fresh as well, and that is basically all I ask of sushi: good rice + fresh fish. The rolls here are not terribly creative, so there is little new in terms of experience. The decor is a little bit old, but I do like the cheesy faux Japanese style over restaurants that try too hard to be hip (i.e. Oishii Boston). One minor downside...they only had Nestea ice tea. So yes, Ginza is kind of like my standard go-to sushi place in Boston.
