Social Profile:

My family founded R-N-R in Sheepshead Bay Brooklyn. I was always in there with my grandfather when I was a little boy. You can say the restaurant business was introduced to me at a very young age. After college, I managed the Brooklyn location in the mid 80’s. I learned a great deal about the concept from cooking, ordering, and day to day operations. There are many facets that go into running a successful restaurant. Our On-A- Roll concept derives from many years of restaurant experience. I owned and operated pizzeria’s, deli’s, bagel shops and white tablecloth Italian restaurants.What we want to make crystal clear to everyone is that we are in no way shape or form affiliated with the Brooklyn location. We do things entirely different

Before I talk about the food, I want to say, all the employees were super nice and the atmosphere was great. If that was the only thing I was based in this review on it would be a five-star review.

I tried the roast beef medium rare with onions and cheese and the pork sandwich with onions. I also had a side I believe of their disc fries. Roast beef was definitely of high quality. Although the gravy and the sandwich itself did not have enough salt, there just wasn’t enough flavor. I would say the same thing for the pork sandwich too. Fries were not crispy, unless they’re not supposed to be, they also lacked salt. Cheese seemed overly salty which was the only thing that kind of added flavor to anything. Although, I enjoyed my meal but I’m not sure how somebody else would feel.

Also tried their chocolate chip cookie. That was delicious.

Overall, I would definitely try the food again. Maybe this batch was not seasoned as well as it normally is.

My first time there and I meant to order their roast beef but couldn’t resist their Lent Combo Special. It was a great value and delicious. I got the flounder sandwich, circle fries, and a Starry fountain drink. I’ll try the roast beef next time. We got to talk to the owner who is a down to earth and friendly guy. I love supporting a small business that values quality and customer satisfaction.

If you’re serious about roast beef, On a Roll is the place. The roast beef is perfectly cooked, tender, and stacked high on a fresh roll that makes every bite incredible. Hands down, the BEST roast beef sandwiches around.

Joe, the owner, takes real pride in what he does, and it shows. Great food, great service, and a local spot that truly delivers!

I brought my 88 year old Mother there for their famous homemade roast beef sandwich, she absolutely loved it! The fries were amazing and so we’re the chicken fingers. And to top it off the owner is the one who helped us with such kindness and professionalism. I highly recommend this place!!

Stopped in the other night to see what the rave was about. Definitely a must have, the roast beef is amazing and the gravy is great. I must tell you I grabbed it before I was going home and ate it cold and was still amazing. Next time I will eat it there hot and try some of the must other haves. So if you know, if its good cold Definitely how great its going to be hot.

I will redo this review when i go back cause i will be back. This place is great for the amount of food you get for the price you pay is unmatched. The roll was butter soft roast beef amazing, the photos do not do this place justice will redo when i eat there again. And if they have cookies when you get there order one it will be one of the best you’ll ever have.

I grew up in Brooklyn and still work there . I have had Roll&Roaster to many times to count. I went to
On A Roll tonight for the first time . I am blown away , I didn’t think it would compete with R&R but not only did it I found every item I purchased better . The roast beef I got dry on purpose with gravy and extra cheese. iOS in the side . Their roast beef dry with no added gravy stood on its own , it was extremely moist and when I ate it it actually tasted like roast beef . What I mean the taste of the beef wasn’t masked by globs of cheese and onions , I actually tasted the beef perfectly , I believe their roll is better then the competitors which allowed the flavor of the beef to be tasted perfectly , their corn fritter again was better , they were a little larger and their was no uncooked batter like I usually taste at R&R . The shrimp box was perfectly cooked , large shrimp that were extremely tasty , the cocktail sauce however wasn’t my favorite it was good but more vinegar based than horseradish which I prefer . The fries were larger circles than the other place and were cooked more crispy and more enjoyable , their cheese sauce to dip them was perfect what you would expect . All in all I find on the roll to be the winner between THEM AND ROLL N ROASTER. I can care less about the cheesy nostalgia debate . I also found it more affordable. Roll n roasted is good but OTR is better , RNR does have amazing orangeade good apple pie and clam strips .
I also have eaten at John’s deli to many times , Brennan and Carr and they are both amazing but are too different to compare to OTR , they are totally different eating experiences . John’s deli has gone down hill a lot also since new owners , their roast been is so small and measly for $20 now , they even charge $4 for a medium gravy now as well other then the roast beef it’s average at best food . Brennan and Carr is amazing and totally different , everything there is top notch , it has been there over 100 years so they are doing everything perfect . But you have to be in the mood for it as it’s way different . OTR is my new all around favorite beef stop , it has a limited menu but it’s perfect , everything you get is way above average , dare I say the best

I grew up in sheepshead Bay with the likes of Brennan and Carr Rolls and roadster. You either like onions or you don’t and if you do you expect to have a decent amount when I order it online they gave me just a sliver amount , that was almost nothing. I ordered rare like I normally do with this nostalgic type of food. The meat was more cooked than well done Not a pink color on that meat. It upset me because I don’t eat it quite often I live in Staten Island now I was hoping to relive my childhood memories from time to time and this was a disappointment, people say you shouldn’t compare every restaurant does things differently but when you ask for rare in any establishment you get rare Not well done.

The roast beef was beyond dead it was grey dead asked for roast beef med rare cheese onions double dipped it was absolutely terrible, fries were fresh and hot!!! And paired ooo so well with cold cheese sauce smh guy behind the counter could care less and i was the only one in there this is not how roll n roaster was run when i was a kid as the owner proclaims i was sooo disappointed since i like the guys videos online talked a big game but cant back it up

Response to owner, i am definitely not a R & R worker i really wanted to like your food and was rooting for you since i feel R & R fell off and is not the same, but your response is terrible maybe you should look at operations a little more and making sure standards are up to what you preach. Your GOOGLE Rreviews you only got 300+ at 4.5 stars if it was up to the standards you post why dont you have thousands of reviews honestly the grade of beef i got was a step above arbys which is the worst ive ever had in my life look at you cameras just before 12 i was the only person in there i didnt even finish my sandwich
