The Ringling Grillroom offers a delightful dining experience with consistently impressive food. The restaurant serves burgers and flatbreads that are particularly good, and the presentation of all dishes is excellent. While the service can be hit-or-miss, recent visits have noted attentive service, especially on busy show nights at the Asolo. The atmosphere remains nicely decorated and welcoming, making it a great choice for a satisfying meal. Customers appreciate the high quality of food and the convenience of the location.
The Ringling Grillroom is praised for its crab cake with arugula, which is all meat and well-seasoned, perfect for a pre-performance lunch. The salmon BLT is a standout dish, with a tangy and delicious lemon aioli, crisp bacon, and fresh lettuce and tomato. The main salad with toasted pumpkin seeds, sunflower seed, and an herbaceous vinaigrette is also highly recommended. The children's grilled cheese sandwich, made with whole grain bread and quality cheddar cheese, is a thoughtful addition to the menu.
