I had gotten a groupon for this place last week because we happened to be in the area and I was hungry. The place was mostly empty (thursday night) with a couple of DJ's blaring loud country music for a couple of people dancing. Folks sitting at the bar were watching the game with one extra passionate fan cheering, hooting, and hollering.
None of that bothered us, we just sat in the back and ordered out food. I got the cobb salad with ranch dressing and feta cheese instead of blue cheese. This salad is MASSIVE and tasted good but was a little too busy for me with too much going on - still great tasting though and I hardly put a tend in it by the time I was full. My husband had pulled pork (dry) with baked beans and macNcheese. The pull pork was on point! Dry does NOT mean dry, just leaner, but still juicy with just enough fat! Baked beans were good and the macNcheese were okay too but I wouldn't order them as a side again.
Service was excellent - friendly and attentive, had no problems using the groupon either.

So, we went to Whiskey Rose a second time b/c we liked it the 1st time...
The second visit was on a Saturday and the place was crowed (as expected) but we were seated right away (we chose to sit by the bar this time). There was no DJ or life music.
And this time the food (mainly the starter) and service wasn't that great.
Avocado egg rolls were cold - probably because they were served 5 minutes after ordering. While I like quick service, I like fresh and hot food better. We had to ask for utensils after the server gave us our avocado rolls.
Husband had the pulled pork sandwich with with fries and a cornbread muffin - he liked it all.
I had the THE MESQUITE BIDDY (MESQUITE MARINATED GRILLED CHICKEN / BBQ SAUCE / FRIZZLED ONIONS / AVOCADO / APPLE-CHIPOTLE SLAW / PEPPER JACK CHEESE / BUTTERED TEXAS TOAST) which I liked.
What bothered me the most was the I was able to watch the bartenders and servers handle drinks. Almost every single one touched and handled the drinks by the rim of the glass/cup. For instance - On some beers I counted four different people touching the rim, FOUR! No-one drinks beer with a straw, so the customer has 4 different peoples' hands all on their lips. The mixed drinks and cocktails at least get a straw to same a customer from funk but still...
It ruined my appetite after I watched 6+ people doing this.
