Roost - Chicken Salad & Deli

I am writing this review based on my first experience here. The inside of the restaurant is very nice and has a modern, clean look. I ordered the Greek Salad with chicken and received my salad quickly; it was delicious. The lady who waited on me was very nice and helpful. I will be back!

I was lucky enough to attend the friends and family opening at The Roost in Athens with my friend, and it did not disappoint! I ordered my go-to half Rooster sandwich with potato salad, just like I do at the Tyler location, and it tasted just as good as always. My friend had the Turkey & Avocado Club with Roasted Red Pepper Gouda soup and loved it. I also grabbed a Buffalo Chicken Salad to-go for my wife, which she enjoyed. Excited to have The Roost closer to home. Next up, breakfast! Atmosphere 4 stars explanation: It would be great if you fixed the fans/lights so that when the fans are on it doesn’t cause a flickering, strobe light effect, inside. It was like this back when the location was McAlister’s & is a much needed improvement.

Only gave the food 2 stars because i got full. It was not good. When we first got there we ordered the food and they have us our cups wich mine had a black mark inside, i cleaned it out myself and overlooked it. I went to the bathroom wich smelled terrible and made my stomach churn. We get our food and my chicken omelet was supposed to come with sour cream per the menu description, I told them it was missing the sour cream and they said that I had to request sour cream. My husband ordered the brisket omelet and they did not add his pico. They completely forgot our sides of potatoes and our toast came out so cold that we could not melt the butter. It took several minutes before anyone even noticed us trying to get their attention! We went ahead and ate anyways but we will not go back.

The location in Athens, Texas is absolutely fabulous. You feel welcomed right when you open the door to the restaurant the food is excellent. The restaurant is very clean. They make sure you’re happy when you get your food. If you’re in Athens, Texas, don’t miss out on this Location

Was just okay. No offer, but chicken salad on both of our sandwiches was just okay. Shredded chicken. Kinda sweet. Ordered their Thai chicken salad sandwich on croissant. Few sprinkles of peanuts. Little drip of nothing sauce. No cilantro. Croissant was good though. Mine came on a metal tray versus everyone else's coming on a plate. Crackers with my soup. The others was the Southwest chicken salad. Little sprinkle of seasoning. No jalapeno peppers or relish(?)- is the relish supposed to be Pico de Gallo? Theirs came on a plate with soup. But no crackers with soup. The Poblano pepper soup with Gouda was good. But tasted more like tomato soup. Large chunks of tomatoes in the soup. Not consistent and chicken salad needs improvement. Get away from the sweet. Especially if your going to pair t
