Good food Salad bar great Service good! Quiet Great drinks Needs to update bar! Clean
I've only been to Rex's once, but it was a good experience. I was with a group of 7 for lunch. We all ordered the salad bar and I think everyone was pleased with the variety available. The cream of mushroom soup was outstanding. I'd go back again just to have it. I wish they would have had real bacon bits on the salad bar, I didn't think anyone used those little red bits anymore. We were there quite early, so the lunch crowd was just starting to come in, and our server did an excellent job. We had an individual room with a round table which made it very easy to have conversations with everyone. Good experience.
We had a celebration for my granddaughter's marriage and her mom's (our daughter) 50th birthday. Rex's did a wonderful job. I wouldn't change a thing. Food, beverage and service were perfect.
Loved this place had prime rib there with my father Steve Lawler when he was in from California.
The restaurant is big with a nice bar area. My old fashion was not muddled. The best thing of all was the woundful salad bar including soup. They brought us yummy hot bread. We each had the ribs, which was good, not great. The service was excellent.
Stopped in for lunch with a friend during the workday. Definitely has an older crowd for lunch, but was pleasantly surprised! The dining rooms were clean and the salad bar was well stocked with fresh ingredients along with two delicious hot soups. I added a side of shrimp, kind of wish they were lightly tossed in the boom boom sauce instead of being smothered with it. Friendly wait staff and bartender, might have to become a regular lunch visitor!
