Nicole was my waitstaff for my first visit to the Railyard and she made it 5 star perfect. The minute you pull up and walk in your experience is a sight to see. Beautiful decor inside and out. The wonderful selection of choices in drink and food are nice and appealing to all tastes. Great prices with great portions accompanied with excellent service, cleanliness and visual aesthetics makes for a great overall dining experience. If you are on vacation I'd say try one of their local drinks from the Taproom.
I am new to town and this appears to be the best bet for all, dine in, take out, and now with DoorDash - delivery. I have sampled their menu over half a dozen times and I have not been disappointed yet. Huge fan of the SW salad with chicken - I could eat that for lunch everyday without much complaint. When I dine in, a manager or one of the owners always comes over after I get my food to check on me. That's old school service and much appreciated.
Our first time eating there last night. What a great spot! Love the bar area. Good seating in the dining area. Food was great! We both got burgers (the Freight Train and the D&H) They were cooked perfectly, and tasted great. I got a pineapple margarita, so good! The wait staff was amazing. Constantly checking with us. Very friendly. We will definitely go again!
Awesome 1st experience & we were meeting with friends . So understanding of a crew there & the food was absolutely amazing!! & decent prices on what you got! We'll definitely be back & TYVM to the crew serving on 1/26/2025!! You all deserve a great thank you!! It was really busy.
The inside is absolutely beautiful. Nice separate dining area from the bar. Bar has a neat shape it’s almost like two sections. They have a huge liquor selection. Very nice for white hall. I was most impressed with the crab cakes. The spicy sauce that came with it was full of flavor and the cakes were super crispy on the outside and the inside wasn’t just plain crab meat. Their chef puts his heart into the food you can tell. I got a white pizza also and it was loaded with broccoli and chicken I added mushrooms and it was very good. Prices are very fair. I’ll be back for a rumchatta
I very much enjoyed this meal. We were the only table this Sunday morning but we ate well! Service was good, started off slow but we were very well her first diners of the day and she fell into pace quickly. The food came out promptly and was perfection. The 6 wings ordered BBQ style were crispy and delicious. The BBQ was sweet and flavorful, and wings were a perfect size. The Railyard burger is a regular burger served with pulled pork and bacon. We skipped bacon but the pulled pork added a tremendous amount of flavor to every bite. We also got the Boxcar Club. A burger served club style, with bacon and mayo on your choice of bread. I choose to add lettuce and mushrooms, white was my choice of bread. It was the perfect mix. A BLT with mushrooms and a burger, yum. Finally both burgers were accompanied by tator tots. Perfectly cooked with flavor and crunch. Golden with the perfect amount of potato. Overall I very mix enjoyed the restaurant, it’s lay out and design. I would 100% come back to enjoy another meal, I’d even make the commute from my home to their place in Whitehall. A must try!!
Tonight was our first time visiting the Railyard, and everything was great! I had the prime rib special and my husband had a calzone and both were delicious, as were the drinks. The service was fast, thorough, and thoughtful (our compliments to the young man who served us in the main dining room!). We took desserts to go and they were so good as well! We're very glad to have found this place, as a bit farther south in Washington county it's difficult to find a decent place to eat out. We will definitely be back!
We stopped in here for a quick bite to eat on our travels back home. I got the pulled pork personal sized nachos with sour cream and guacamole. The pulled pork was absolutely delicious and I doubt you would be disappointed with their pulled pork sandwich. The nachos were really good and was the perfect size meal for me. My wife got the buffalo chicken wrap with onion rings and also enjoyed her meal. It's a good size restaurant with a bar and our waitress was super friendly and did a great job as a server.
