Surprisingly good! The food was clearly prepared by a seasoned chef and was better than the typical restaurant like this. The staff were all very friendly and provided great service. This was our first visit but certainly won't be our last.

Fabulous food, loud inside during busy hours, outdoors was excellent and quiet

We arrived later, close to closing...then had to ask for help to order. Our waiter was friendly. Kitchen wasn't timely. The food was ok. So, maybe things were less than due to our late arrival time...or maybe that's just the norm.

The Ribeye was great.

Casual café with absolutely fantastic food! Their daily special was chicken fried steak with collared greens, fried okra, and rice with gravy. For a healthier option, they allowed us to substitute grilled fish with the veges. It was perfectly seasoned and perfectly cooked. I highly recommend a visit here!

The best pasta I have had since Semolinas shut down in New Orleans. Everything they serve is the best. Best blue cheese too. Fun people and tvs on the games. As good as it gets.

First time visiting this cafe. The food was savory. I did have to send the sweet potato fries back because they were cold. Also, leftovers didn’t reheat very well. The servers were phenomenal and very attentive.

Parking: Parking lot and spaces are tight. Lot was hard to get out of, due to Valleydale Rd. traffic.

Wheelchair accessibility: I think it would be too congested. Tables are close together.

This is a great choice for all types of food. It's fresh and served up hot. It was packed with customers, and still got a seat. It's very worth eating here. It seemed like the business to the west was closed on Monday, so plenty of parking over there. I had a steak burger, which was delicious and I'd order it again. It came with fries, which were also very good. Great choice when I'll on this area next time.

This place is always on point. The menu isn't huge but what they do, they do it well. I've never had a bad meal here. And during rush it's always well run. Last time I went the waitress suggested the onion rings with my burger. She wasn't wrong.

Ragtime Cafe, is an awesome place to eat, from steaks to seafood to sandwiches, to pizza, wings. The atmosphere is great, the service is great, and so are the employees. I have been eating there since about 1992, and have never been let down, in any way.
