Based on friends' recommendations, we recently visited The Rockford Restaurant. What a lovely surprise! Although the decor is quite plain, it is really all about the food here. Schnitzel in various forms is predominant on the menu, but there are many other choices for non-schnitzel fans, plus daily specials on the board, which included both a fish and a steak... More

We have stopped at the Rockford Restaurant several times this past year on our way to our cottage at Sauble Beach. The Pork Schnitzel and daily specials have always been hot, delicious and made fresh as you wait. Even their french fries are better than any other place I have had fries. If you eat the soups - be prepared... More

My wife and I go out to eat about twice a month. About every third time we go to to the Rockford. The menu is has quite a range of choices, though a little heavy on the pork side. Everything is always cooked to perfection, and the sauces delicious (perhaps a bit generous). One of our tests for a well... More

The outside of this restaurant and the indoor decor, do not represent the amazing menu. My husband do not go out for dinner very often as we cook great meals at home The Rockford menu has a wide variety of food including lamb, curry, schnitzel and stir fry. The dessert menu is heavenly and the service is exceptional. We have... More

We have eaten here a few times and we are never disappointed. From the outside this restaurant looks like it should be a gas bar with a gas bar restaurant inside but what a surprise when you taste the food. The first thing you will notice as you enter is that "fancy" it is not. Once you get over the... More
