Food is good just don’t get a quesadilla every time I get one it’s wrong every time always missing something or having something in it I didn’t order.

Your website won’t allow me to delay pickup. I ordered food to be ready ASAP (only option). Tried calling to tell you I won’t be there for 2 hours and the girl told me to hold, put the phone down and left me hanging for 10+ minutes. I could hear her talking about how she went to Riverview HS but then went to art school.
Frustrating experience.

Food is ok but overpriced. The female hostesses are nice but some of the male hosts act like punks. I don't know why they work in a job that deals with the public if they don't like it.

First time last night. Great experience. Went specifically for the Donnie Bell band who were on fire. So kudos to off the rails for having great live entertainment consistently. Used a promotional offer which was honored without issue. I love being marketed as long as promotions are honored. No questions asked here.. effortless. No for the food..bbq is something we get a lot of in our travels and this place doesn't disappoint. Pulled pork nachos..coleslaw..pulled chicken and fries all ordered... everything tasted good..every bit of food..every flavor of the 3 sauces..mustard was my favorite..the coleslaw was tart and vinegar heavy..great contrast with the bbq...beer specials were worthy $2.50 labatt..service was as service should be..it does get crowded it seems so finding a spot could be a challenge..fire pit outside cures some of that...the only improvement needed is a different cutlery situation and more napkins on the tables. The current cutlery situation seems wasteful with the packets of multiple items that may or may not be needed in packaging..I know it's really easy but wasteful. The napkins seemed to be sporadically on tables and I didn't see like communal napkin station where you picked up the other stuff. Very very minor things but easy fixes. Can't wait to go back and will be telling everyone I know.

Off the Rails Barbeque and Drafthouse is a local, family-owned restaurant that serves BBQ meats, sandwiches, sides, alcoholic beverages, etcetera. For several years, my husband and I have eaten here. We love the smoked-fried wings, brisket, pulled pork, pulled chicken, St. Louis ribs, mac and cheese, baked beans, cornbread, and Brussels sprouts. I think that the collard greens and coleslaw are OK.
