Customer Reviews

"A Seymour tradition since before I was born (and I'm old!) Big Cheesy and onion rings was always my go to order as a teenager. You can still order them both all these decades later and they are still as yummy as ever. I also love their chocolate malts."

- Joe S.

"We got the mushroom and Swiss burger and pork tenderloin, onion rings + pickles. Everything was hand breaded and cooked to perfection. The burger had just the right amount of juice and condiment ratio, very good. Great service as well. Love places like this that hit the nail on the head with simple eats and delivery is spot on. 10/10"

- Nate D.

"They have the best hand breaded deep fried cauliflower around! Daily specials, milkshakes, old school drive-in ... 10/10 recommend!"

- Just J.

"The big cheesy is pretty good. The tenderloin is good. It's like if McDonald's and steak and shake had a kid and it was way better then the parents. But you should try it for yourself."

- Luke T.

"If you've never pulled up to Rockford Ridge with a grumbling stomach and left with a renewed faith in humanity, then buddy... you haven't lived. Their Mushroom Swiss Burger is a local legend. We're talkin' seared to perfection, cheese draped like it's modeling for a glossy magazine cover, mushrooms sauteed so well you'd swear they trained in France, and buns that hold the whole thing together like a firm handshake from a mechanic named Earl. The fries? Golden, salty, crispy enough to be their own ASMR track. And the soda? Poured like it was straight from the Fountain of Youth, cold enough to put your soul on ice for a minute. And the milkshakes? Oh man, I ordered one, and boy, did I get one. Thick, smooth, with just the right amount of sweetness and enough body to make you take notice. Come to think about it.. The server, service, and milkshake could all share that same description. I tipped well. For the hustle, for the energy, and for the fact that I briefly forgot how to order my food. That shake was hypnotizing. Rockford Ridge doesn't just serve food, it serves moments."

"Their hamburgers are fantastic. Fries could use some seasoning."

- Rebekah R.

"Easy to miss if driving by but worth the stop. This place has been around for a long time and I enjoy supporting the small guys. The food was great. The prices were fair. The service was great and friendly nice home town feel. Love that you can just pull up and get waited on or sit at the tables outside. We came in with a crew of 16 and I was impressed with how quickly they got it done not having a huge crew working. All the order was correct and everyone loved the food. Definitely get the onion rings totally worth it. We will be stopping in for sure in. The future."
