Yelper Ry S., who reviewed Top Round on Nov. 18, wrote, "This location reminds me of a more high-end Arby's, both in quality and in cost. ... Roast beef sandwiches were tasty, but small for the price. Hamburgers seemed a bit flavorless. I've rarely seen frozen custard offered outside of the Midwest, so being able to get a concrete at the Spectrum is a special treat."
