Tillman’s Roadhouse

For years, Tillman’s Roadhouse felt like it was playing second fiddle. As crowds swarmed other Bishop Arts restaurants on Friday nights and Sunday brunchtimes, Tillman’s often seemed a little neglected. When new owners, brothers Jeffrey and Ross Kollinger, purchased Tillman’s, they appeared to be aware of this reputation. The first order of business was a remodel of the hunting-lodge-for-bros interior and a total makeover of the kitchen. Chef Michael Morabito was brought in to hit the reset button on the menu, while the Kollingers revisited the decor. The result is a little strange: a brash, over-the-top restaurant that, behind all its swagger, serves some good food that nails the basics.
