Went there for dinner. Service was horrible. Took forever to be waited on. Ordered a turkey burger. The bun was a dried up old bun. There were only a couple of pieces of pineapples on it instead of a nice slice of pineapple. The guy singing sounded like he was from community auditions. We won't be back.

I'm a summer resident to the area, but this is one of my favorite places, including the places that I frequent on the South Shore. Never miss an opportunity to stop in. My friends and family love it also. Very good food, freshly prepared, and great prices. Can't ask for much more than that.

My wife and I have been to the "Roads" many times. The food is great, the staff and people running the restaurant are even better! We have yet to have a meal we didn't like, and we have tried just about all of them. We used to go to the 99 once a week, we haven't been back there since we started going to Crossroads. Anyone in the area should really try it and support a local business that had worked hard to provide a great experience, and the Buffalo chicken appetizer is the best, huge tender chicken with a great sauce. Also many beers to choose from. Give it a try!

Just 3 stars but it has potential. My wife and I stopped by this restaurant on a Friday evening and decided to have dinner in the bar area which was very welcoming. The restaurant is bright and very clean. We started with a calamari appetizer with an interesting sweet/spicy sauce. The calamari was cooked perfectly tender and crispy and the portion size was large. We followed this with 2 evening specials; Fried Whole Belly Clams and Baked Haddock. The fried clam dinner was excellent ($12.99) with sweet potato string fries (excellent!!) and cole slaw (acceptable). My baked haddock dinner was overcooked and the portion was very small (approx. 4 0z.) for $10.99. In fact, the baking dish was the smallest I have ever seen in any restaurant. This dish came with the house veg. (baby carrots that were actually cooked crisp/tender... very good) and a baked potato. On the menu this was $15.99 so perhaps the early bird special was the slimed down version? The beer on tap selecti

I have been to Crossroads five times now and will continue to go...the food is very good..service has always been exceptional...atmosphere is wonderful...love the renovations...and their cole slaw is simply delicious...and I dont like cole slaw as a general rule...Keep up the good work Crossroads...finally found a resturant my extremely picky husband actually likes...we will be back...
I've visited Crossroads many times and and have very few complaints. He's done a great job of remodeling and lifelong residents will find the photos on the wall interesting. The fried clams, pot roast and other meals are great. The reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because they served me the wrong steak last time. The waitress failed to acknowledge the error until she finally made it good on the check. The steak that I actually received wasn't that good and was very overpriced for it's size. I wouldn't order steak there again. Other than that one experience, no complaints.

This has been a much needed option for people in this area where good choices are few and far between. Those who make negative comments about this place need to have their attitudes adjusted. We really like it a lot. It's always busy whenever we go, and that's the best review possible. It's not the Ritz cafe, but then again nothing is the Ritz cafe out here.

The wait staff is great! The food tasty but the chef needs to pay better attention to the requested doneness of the meat. Usually over cooked. Still tasty. Appetizers are good. The parking is awful. Our fender was destroyed by another vehicle parked next to us trying to wiggle out his parking space. We'll go back....this time we'll walk there.

The owners of Crossroads did an excellent job in renovating the old Olson's Restaurant. The decor inside is very nice with ample seating. The food was great! The salad had fresh variety of garden greens. The pot roast and meatloaf were tasty and well seasoned. The baked potato and squash was cooked to perfection. Very good size portions. Try it, I am sure you will like it and make it a regular stop when you dine out.

My husband & I have been several times, the first when they just opened. Service was a little slow but was expected. The food was great! The roast beef hash was my favorite. Been back for lunch as well & everything is delicious, the service is friendly & attentive. Great menus to choose from with unique choices. The complaint about the extra $1 doesn't know what he's talking about. A restaurant has extra charges for many different reasons & not every item has the same markup. Prime Rib for instance is a good draw but is definately a giveaway, unless you're a Prime Rib house. The costs of running a restaurant are incredibly high, I personally know that. The staff & owner really seem to be giving it their all to make it successful, instead of looking for flaws people should just go out to enjoy themselves, not to critique. Keep up the good battle! This area is really lucky to have a great place to enjoy a nice breakfast, lunch or dinner! We'll be back again & again.
Had Lunch at JK Crossroads and the outside gave me a bad impression, but the inside was actually pretty nice. The waitstaff was a bit unorganized, but at the same time friendly. I ordered the Meatloaf and my Girlfriend ordered the Baked Stuffed Haddock. The portions were huge, but the food can use some improvements. However the appetizers were actually better than the meal. I'll try this place again...
6 of us for dinner. Everything was great, from the appetizers to desserts . Fried calamari, pina colada steak tips excellent. Haddock casserole, salmon, fillet sandwich excellent. Baked stuffed shrimp was just ok. Salad included plus rolls, vegetable and potato with entree too. Chocolate lava cake and strawberry short cake for desert, both excellent! Service was good too. Drinks were made nicely. We will definitely be going back soon!

Went for lunch with my son. The chicken tenders/nuggets were great and the homemade chips are awesome! Will definitely go again in the near future.

Went today, a Saturday. Waitstaff quite slow. And the idea of adding $1.00 for an order of onion rings is ludicrous, when onions are cheaper than potatoes. Had fried scallops, and the batter was way too dark. Might think about changing your frying oil a little sooner. A little pricey for a moderate/small portion. Not sure if I would return.

My wife & I had a quiet night out with great food, fast service. Food portions are over sized. The Prime Rib was cooked just right; pink, moist & hot just the way I ordered. Martini's for two were perfect. Over all a great experience. We will be back.

A new local favorite. Fresh Haddock & large portions this past Friday. Warm welcome & fast service. Will come back without the kids to sample the crafts beers.

I went here because they have a good variety of craft beer on tap (about 14), which is what I enjoy. I know the place is new, and they are still working things out, but waitress was very unorganized whether it was their fault or not. We sat down and a waitress from brought another tables food to us. The. We got our salads and our waitress brought the wrong dressing. Then the dinner arrives, it looks like a nice piece of prime rib. It would have been excellent if it wasnt ice cold. I didn't send it back because it would have dried out reheated. Not only that, we ordered mashed potatoes, and the waitress didn't know they were out and substituted without asking twice baked potatoes. How about asking if that is what we wanted and not just giving it to us with the meal? It looks like it could be a nice little place, but they seriously need to straighten things out. The beer variety will get me back for another try. I hope it is a better experience.

First, I think the food was great and the service was as expected it would be for a new restaurant. I think the people writing things here are terrible, I wish this wasnt an anonymous site and people would have to write their first and last names then there wouldnt be a bad review because people are cowards. I have a business and I do one thing wrong and there is an anonymous post about it, I do 1000000 things right and nobody hears about it. Go to Crossroads, have a good meal and write something nice, I hope they do well, I am sure they will. FOr all you cowards put down your name . This is Dana !!

Have been twice for breakfast and once on a friday night for drinks and appetizers,, food is very good,, the waitstaff needs to be a little better on friday nights.. the atmosphere is wonderful.. Just would recommend they get some seasoned waitstaff/bartenders for the weekend evening rush. I will definitely go again. The breakfast staff was very professional and awesome
