This restaurant is 28 miles from my home. I don’t get here much, but whenever I am in Locust, I absolutely stop here.
I stumbled upon it driving through Locust, NC when it first opened and have since had a number of exceptional meals at the Local Room. I’ve eaten inside and outside, had everything from salad to salmon, and had many different weight staff in the years I’ve been coming.
Everything and everyone is outstanding. I’ve had great service with very personable staff every time that I have visited. Today I met one of the managers, Josh, and he could not have been nicer.
I’m at a point that I will probably start coming here not just when I’m in the area, but more as a destination spot to have a fine meal.
I highly recommend stopping here whenever you get a chance.

Food was delicious and our waitress was friendly and helpful. The restaurant was quite busy on a Friday night, but they have an overflow parking lot behind a small car dealership.

Called in an order for dinner (ribeye, broccoli, chopped steak, baked potato). The call went well. My husband picked up the meal and while not verbally rude, they were rude. Specifically, when a customer hands you their card for payment, you do not place it on the counter at the very end of the bar. Additionally, you’d want to hand the customer their order and not place it on the counter at the end of the bar and say “there’s your order!”, as you walk away. I have only visited maybe a couple of other times-always carry out, and it seems stand offish on each instance. Additionally, there seems to be an environment that is not inviting if we decided to dine in. Learn to embrace and welcome all customers from all walks of life or plan to loose a tremendous amount of business as this area grows and options multiply.

We had not been to the local room in years because we weren't crazy about the food we'd had in the past. We saw they had revamped their menu so we wanted to give them another try. Last night the food was delicious. We got the honey buttered yeast rolls to start, which you can never go wrong with! The hubs got the Locust sirloin and I got the Chicken tortellini in Brie reduction with the fried goat cheese side salad. All were excellent but that fried goat cheese salad was chefs kiss! I would absolutely get that again with a grilled protein. I also got the vanilla hazelnut old fashioned, definitely one of the top 5 old fashioneds I've had. If you haven't been here in awhile definitely give them another try!

I ordered my steak medium, it was cooked well done. The waiter took more time telling us he could not remember what people asked him to bring them than actually serving us. Finally brought a refill after the meal was finished. He thinks its cute to tell the stories of forgetting what tables ask for. No manager contact at all.

Delicious chicken salad and fries! Great service - friendly, too. Will definitely go back.
We were a large group of 11. We sat outside on patio. What a lovely place. Food was very good. Not a single disappointment from any one in our group. Service was excellent. I highly recommend this place.

This was our first time here and we'll be back! It was an excellent experience. I had the 8 oz House Burger with cheese & bacon with an order of Fries and a bowl of Loaded Baked Potato Soup. EXCELLENT! The burger was freshly made, the bun was toasted and the bacon was crispy. The Fries were perfectly seasoned. My wife had the French Onion Soup with an order of Fries. She said the soup was very good and cheesey. She loved it ! What I liked about everything, everything came out hot. Our waitress was on top of everything, we never had to ask for anything. The atmosphere inside was very pleasant with some TVs showing sports. We definitely will return. When in Locust I highky recommend you stop in here and have yourself a meal.

Recently moved to Locust, with recommendations for The Local Room. We have visited for brunch and mostly dinner a couple of times.. Tonight, we ordered the Autumn pork chop. It was perfectly executed, tender and flavorful. Cocktails were delicious as well! Jayden was our server, and she was knowledgeable, extremely personable and we loved conversing with her! She elevated the entire experience. Manager Daniel is a delight as well. We will be certain to return.
