Reviews for RJ's American Grill in St Cloud, MN
My wife and I got the salmon and walleye. Every part of our meals were cooked perfectly! And ordered a old fashion which the... bartender made perfectly! Nice calm setting in there. Staff was very polite and professional! Had a great night out there! Thankyou! Read more
This place always surprises me because, despite its location, the food is good and the ambience inside makes you forget that you... are in a gas station where big trucks are parked right outside. This restaurant is an example of inside beauty. If you aredriving on I94 and want to have a real and good meal, take this exit in St. Cloud and try this restaurant. Again, don't getdiscouraged by the McDonald's sign and the gas station. Check the menu with plenty salad options, entries, and burgers. It isnot cheap though. It is exactly the price you would expect from seeing the pictures. Read more
A lengthy post...but, Wow what an unexpected special treat this was! ????????????????????? Beautiful place for a special... occasion meal or just to have a delicious beverage and appetizers in a very nicely decorated, clean restaurant. My son treatedme to a meal here for my 58th belated birthday ???? Seriously, you will be pleasantly surprised at the atmosphere here, veryfriendly, prompt ???? smiling ,well dressed staff. You feel very welcomed right when you walk in. We had a delicious BloodyMary and a Cold Blue Moon, and waters. I ordered fish tacos with a special sauce, tangy yet sweet, some fresh cole slaw in a soft shell. Delicious!!! A side of red, black corn chips and salsa also came with the meal.???? The Reuben looked and wasdelicious with hot seasoned fries, very tasty and quite generously portioned ???? We topped it off with a piece of mouthwatering cheesecake! Took home 1 of the 3 tacos I couldn't finish and treated my husband, he loved it!! Seriously, go visitthis place I think you will be very impressed also ! Great selection of drinks and a little bit of everything for appetizers andmeals on the menu ???? Kudos to RJ's owners and all staff ????????. We'll be back ????. I only have 1 picture, phone batterylow ???? Read more
Usually I have great service, but this past Friday it was terrible. We came early, 4:30, and no one else was in the back... section. It took an hour and a half to be served two burgers. We watched five other parties come in, order, and get their foodbefore we did. No apologies from the waitress, no offer to comp the meals. just an?oh? when I told her how upset I was. I wascalm when I told her why I was upset, but again she just looked at me dumbfounded. We paid for our drinks and left. I won?t goback even though it?s always been one of my favorite places to go. Had the waitress made any effort to make up for taking solong I wouldn?t feel this way. Read more
The restaurant was not even at 1/4 of its capacity if that when we showed up. We notified the restaurant multiple times prior to... arrival that we would be having a larger party of 10+ people and were assured that there would be no issue with seating us.Unfortunately this restaurant does not allow reservations to be made which is mind boggling for a place that is considered moreritzy and low key. There were multiple open spots available upon arrival but were given the run around as to why our party"couldn't" be seated when we questioned why we couldnt be seated right away due to the amount of open tables that could simplybe pushed together. Due to the fact that it was 6pm when our party arrived and the restaurant closing at 8pm we were given thetreatment of "waiting" to try and force us to leave so they didn't have to serve us as we were essentially the only party yet toreceive service however they realized we weren't going to just "leave" due to their laziness. After waiting 55 minutes andwatching about 5 other smaller parties of 2-4 people come and be seated before us and other larger groups leave with theirtables being cleared and able to fit our party without issue.... we were finally seated in a different spot completely separatedby two tables when the other tables could have sat our entire group as previously mentioned. Our wait staff was nice but you candefinitely tell the head of house staff/management at this restaurant has a definitive lack of customer service that needs to beaddressed. Considering the fact that this restaurant is open Monday- Friday from 11am-8pm you can tell that the management hasproblems when you can't stay open past 8pm and especially on weekends when that is the best time to get business. I won't beback and definitely don't recommend this place to anyone... not worth your time or money. The food was sub par. You can getbetter food at other establishments nearby with far better service... not to mention they won't give yo Read more
We had to wait about 10 minutes to be seated. Everyone was very friendly. We ordered pizza and a few drinks. It was a nice... experience. I would return, although I won?t be eating the pizza again. It was fair. Read more
A very nice restaurant behind a truck stop. Our waitress was so nice. I was there with two girlfriends and we were in no rush,... the waitress was accommodating. I ordered the bourbon burger and it was fantastic, I also ordered the wild rice soup and thatwas very good as well. The fries were tasty, seasoned perfect. My friends steak was cooked perfectly and was very tender. Myother friend ordered the Reuben sandwich and that looked delicious as well. I will definitely go back to RJ's. You should checkit out too.

It's pricey and we were not impressed with the food. The bloody Mary virgin I had was good. Great spice but no celery stalk. The... wife had a margarita and said it was good. The Reuben Sandwich I had was flavorless. Could not even tell it was corned beef.Honestly I have had a better Reuben from Arby's. The wife had the Korean beef tacos and again, no flavor. Could not tell thedifference between the meat's. Should have trusted my gut and left when the wife asked for a small taste of the cilantro ranchdressing before she ordered it and the server said " I can ask the chef but we don't give out samples." She did bring a spoonfulout for her to try. Bailey out server was awesome and friendly. She did take off the sandwich since I only took 3 bites out ofit. Read more
