Reviews - Rax
Reviews summary
A nostalgic roadside classic, this Rax serves hearty roast beef sandwiches, BBCs, Twisty Fries and chocolate shakes with reliably friendly, speedy service. Longtime fans praise the familiar flavors and fair prices, making it a worthwhile stop for roadtrips or quick meals. Expect a worn, retro space and occasional dine-in limits; sandwiches can be smaller than remembered and sometimes arrive less hot or lightly topped. Still, its comforting menu and efficient drive‑thru keep devotees returning to savor a taste of the chain’s heyday.

Always love the BBC and bbq beef. It was worth the 2 hour drive for a classic I had as a kid. Way better than any arbys
Haven't been to a Rax in over 30 years, grandpa used to take me all the time. Happened upon this gem while working. Service was quick, and the food was familiar and comforting. I got the Beef and cheddar sandwiches and was not disappointed. Will certainly be stopping in again as soon as possible. Service: Takeaway Meal type: Dinner

I love Rax, but this location gets my order wrong every single time. Or mixes up orders and gives them to the wrong people. I don't know if it's the computer screens they're using or what. It doesn't make sense because there's never a lot of people, usually just me and maybe 2 or 3 others. But they make up for it because they tell me to keep the wrong order and the remade order. So I end up getting double the food. Service: Dine in

This is the first that I have been to a Rax in many years. I remember the BBC being the best sandwich ever made. I made the 2.5 hour drive to get here. First the sandwich size appeared about half the size. The bun appeared and tasted more like regular bread or bun. I remembered more of a Kaiser bun. Still the roast beef and tangy cheese were excellent, along with a shake and fries, what a blast from the past.
I was thrilled to discover Rax during my vacation and eagerly awaited its opening. The blonde server who assisted us was incredibly friendly, and I regret not asking for her name. The chocolate chip milkshake brought back memories, tasting just like it did 30 years ago—delicious!
Awesome food , haven’t been to in 20 years, all the ones by home closed up shop. Chocolate chip shakes are still amazing from what I remembered, the building has seen better days but food was great, will be another sad day if these remaining few stores close up shop
The beef bacon and cheddar sandwich is still as delicious as ever. The Twisty Fries and chocolate shakers were also exceptional. Next time, I need to try one of the baked potatoes. The restaurant may look a bit worn, but Rax consistently offers their food at a fair price. I just wish there were more locations!
Milkshakes are disappointing and small need to make them larger. The turkey club is really good and worth a try if you haven't had one and aren't sure what to get
