★★★★★ 5.0 Kara Holmes · Nov 2025

This place is super cute I love the Rooster outside. I got the chicken tenders and fries with 3 sauces. The blueberry bbq, Asian soy and the Parmesan sauce. All were delicious. The chicken tenders are not seasoned because they put the sauce on them. Everyone was friendly and polite. They have a great outdoor seating.

★★★★★ 5.0 Nicole Robideau · Jan 2026

Loved it! Food was simple and so flavorful. The service was great! Carly was super sweet and attentive. Im all about a good chicken sandwich and cheap drink prices. They even have a Zada Jane's sandwich, representing the icon brunch spot this once was. Fun and casual, or and great tunes out of the speakers. Highly recommend checking this place out!

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Chris Sandok · Dec 2025

I got the chicken sandwich with hot sauce and waffle fries. The fries were nice and hot. The chicken in the sandwich was over cooked. The bacon was not crispy, it was so hard I had to check to see if I had a piece of wood in my sandwich. Over all it was just a ok sandwich. I would not make a special trip to come here.

★★★★★ 5.0 Michelle Guobadia · Jun 2025

We really wanted to come the first week as we have been following the social media for the opening! It did not disappoint. The sauces for all the chicken were really flavorful. The seasoned waffle fries are real stars of the show! We tried a variety of foods and all excellent! This is gonna be a great food spot for anytime you are in the area! That rooster out front is a great addition to the ambience!

Excellent food, very nice vibes. Welcoming and delicious always goes together! Drinks start @ $10/11... about $75 for two is average.
