Great prices great food

Apr 2020 • none

We try to get to Roxie's at least twice a month, always once on a Saturday for the ribs, and once during the week for a supper. We usually order the pickerel or fish and chips, but my husband loves the burgers and I enjoy the salads! When we're in luck, there will be carrot cake for us to share, one piece is way to much for one person. We always look forward to seeing Diane, behind the counter, and we have always had great service from the waiters and waitresses that have served us over the years. It's our go to place whenever we have company in from out of town.

3 Of Us on Sat Afternoon

Aug 2020 • none

Stopped in for lunch. I remember eating there during last year’s car show. 2 ordered burgers. Big fat, melted cheese, lettuce tomato bacon, heaping full of goodness. I had the Rheuben Sandwich. Fat rye bread, pile of corned beef, and sauerkraut, asked for Bleu Cheese instead of 1000 Island. Sandwich came exactly as asked. Hot, tasty and downright declicious goodness. Only 2 concerns. Found 1 sanitizer after asking where it was. It was at the cash desk to use on your way out, but. . nothing on the way in...... And Ketchup bottles on the tables. Com’on, you guys know, not allowed condiments on the table, this is Covid times. Each table had it, we didnt dare use it. Otherwise excellent food, good valu. On receiving our bills, I asked the female server to ask me how I liked my sandwich. You could see she went in defensive mode & took a step back. Almost preparing for terrible news. I told her it was absolutely delicious . Left $2. Tip. Sandwich was $8.95 inc tax. Would have left more, if she asked me, all on her own, “ how is your food?” Maybe next time. . .

Supper with friends

Jan 2020 • none

We picked a place equidistant from both couples and arrived within minutes of each other. We all started with a beverage then had to navigate a very large menu offering, before arriving at a decision. A Ukrainian meal for my wife and a large bowl of baked potato soup and a spicy burger and fries for me. Our friends both had the delicious soup plus one with chicken fingers and the other a wrap. Dessert was out of the question after the large helpings and carry out containers were had all around.

Last order terrible

Apr 2022 • none

For 15 years our family has picked up & dined in, this is the first time ever that all four of us were not pleased. Burger not fully cooked, pizza toppings cut in half, and it was just not cooked or tasted the same. Now I think I know why…..and I’m shocked I had no idea there was new owners and I’m dying now! This was the only restaurant we could count on and now it’s gone as of course they think they know better & have already started to make changes, I mean cooks prepare different but being cheap on portions you cannot do that here, & this place made it because of return customers & word of mouth….well I will give it one more try, but until then I’m not sending anyone there like used to.

great breakfast

Jul 2020 • none

Service was good....hardly any wait @ all. Food was delicious & servings were large & very reasonably priced. Only negative is regarding the lady who took our payment. No greeting or smile but lots of sighing bcs we were paying & there were a couple of people waiting to be seated. She acted like this was just way too much to ask of her!

large portions with slow service

Sep 2022 • none

We went out for dinner with another couple and waited 20 minutes for a table at Roxi's. The food was okay at best and was large portions on the plate. The service was poor but mostly because there was very little staff on during the dinner time and not sure if this is the norm. The staff tried hard but couldn't overcome the needs of the customers with the staff on shift. The meal was delivered to 3 of us at once and the 4th meal came a few minutes later. Good meal but nothing out of the ordinary and just large portions that none of us could finish. Would try again but would not recommend if the same service and food was presented.

Disappointed

Nov 2024 • family

Avoid weekends. Constant delays, computer issues frequently unable to enter orders, backed up kitchen, short staffed, too busy and on. Food is great when you can actually get it, but this is the 2nd time I leave after 1.5 hours with no food, no refills. Wont be back.

Nope definitely has gone downhill

Jul 2024 • solo

Very disappointed. I have always ordered the omelette and have never had a problem. This time not sure where the cheese was. The hasbrowns were burnt. I like cooked but this was burnt. Waitress gave me a other one and it was just not good no taste still had that burnt taste in my mouth. I hope whatever is going on there smarten up soon. I heard it was management, sad how magement can literally kill a place. The morale equals shifty place to eat So roxies smarten up soon please.

Going down already !

May 2022 • none

There are new owners here and apparently that aren't trying hard enough to keep Roxie's as it was. Deserts the last two times have been almost empty, this never happened before. The roast beef changed to some strange flavored beef, completely different from what it was before, they did tell us this but it wasn't pleasant. Please, please DO NOT change things, they were very good as they were. This happened to another restaurant in Selkirk and they ended up closing. Will try again, but hopefully new management will listen ! We travel from Winnipeg to Selkirk just for your restaurant because there are so few decent places in the big city.

Saddened

Jan 2024 • family

This used to be my favorite restaurant in Selkirk but boy has it gone down hill. the burgers are not good taste like freezer burnt meet, The fries were over cooked small like they came from the bottom of a bag and really hard, Could not even give them to my one year old grandbabies, The wrap we ordered was soggy and tasteless. so disappointed. Will not be going back. not that much of a big deal we are only one family that will not eat there anymore.

Meh

Jul 2024 • couples

Was excited to visit after reading reviews... they were woefully understaffed and made us aware. Understandable. Wife had the pot roast dinner... was ok. Gravy very salty. I was really looking forward to the walleye w house made fries. One little fillet. I did complain, and they brought another piece... Walleye was nicely done, cauliflower was very good... fries were cold. A mixed bag... not racing back to eat there.

Great food

Oct 2020 • couples

This is a combo place dining room one side and bar the other side. We were there on a Saturday evening. The diningnroom was full so we chose the bar side to eat in. The bar is definitely a throw back to 1980. Our server was awesome. The place was full. Let me talk about the food. 2 people had ribs. They said they were good, just a bit heavy on the sauce. Two people had wraps. And they are awesome. The fries are the best in the province. Portion size is huge. Very good value for your money. Now lets talk about the atmosphere. Carpets are pretty dirty. Orange level Covid protocol was to be in effect in selkirk. Which means mask wearing for everyone. So a lot of the guests in the bar where ignoring this. Walking around with a mask around the neck. Taking their drinks from table to table to visit with people. Alot of hugging of people from different tables. This is a small town, so it appears that alot of people know each other. One guy lighting his cigarette in the bar before going outside. I get it must be tough for the staff to inforce the laws because these all seem like local people. And these people pay the bills. i gave 4 stars because the food was great, and our server was great. I will not be returning until covid19 is over. i just cant risk it. So unfortunately it might be a while.

Times they are a-changing.

Sep 2024 • solo

This place used to be a treasure spot in Selkirk but with ownership change, things went downhill a little. Not to say it is not worth frequenting; just that the changes went the wrong way. Add to it staff costs (worth it as staff are great) and supply chain effects to pricing (which will never come down) and the place get more pricey then can be justified today. After all of this has been said, I still go there but less often.

Pass on breakfast!

Mar 2023 • none

We have not been here for a year or two. They used to have good breakfast not anymore and costly for basic breakfast. We certainly would not go back here for breakfast. Cheap margarine smeared all over cold toast. Bacon so hard it was awful.

Road trip to the Interlake, nice to get out of the city. Realized my tummy was growling, looked at the time, wow gotta decide where to eat. Craving salad with grilled chicken, Roxi’s here we come. Did not wait long, tables spaced according to social distancing rules. Friendly staff, great food. Lot of takeout activity happening. You gotta eat here.......
