It’s fast food folks. A glorified chicken sandwich and some fries. The technical aspects of how they made the chicken sandwich is great but it just simply isn’t worth the drive to go out the way. The service was subpar and operationally they weren’t as polished as other fast food chains.

Pretty tasty chicken sandwiches – the chicken itself is nicely seasoned, we got mild and there was the perfect amount of heat – the honey butter sandwich was a standout – we got delivery so understandably fries a bit less crispy – the chicken sandwich with slaw was a bit more heat – jalapeño and cilantro in the slaw (I’m weird and have that soap cilantro thing). Overall tasty, would order again and the Sauces are delicious

My husband had the honey butter sandwich and it was very tasteful. I had the chicken nuggets and it was the complete opposite. Nuggets were sort of overcooked and had no flavor. I thought seasoning would have been in the heat powder that was dusted on top of the nuggets but I was mistaken.
The fries and milkshake (oreo) were great! I probably wouldn’t go here again, but my husband said he would only for the honey butter chicken sandwich.
They did have a revolving door and orders were going in and out, which was a good sign.

The Roaming Rooster was very clean and the staff were excellent. The Oreo milkshake was absolutely amazing. I gave the food 4 stars only because the slaw, in my opinion, needed to be finer sliced or shredded and with a bit more vinaigrette. I also would have liked more seasoning on the fries. That being said, I would definitely go back.

This place has the best chicken sandwich I’ve had in a very long time. You walk in and they have a Bob Ross painting show running it’s adorable. Decor is minimal and clean. Came in at the right time before a line of 7 people walked in behind me. I got a combination of the extra hot buffalo chicken and the club. Extra hot sauce was spicy but still not enough for my liking. Chicken breast was super juicy and the applewood smoked bacon was perfectly thick and crunchy.

So today I decided to try both Dave’s Hot chicken and Roaming roosters chicken. For both I got hot because I am not that good with spicy foods. This is the Roaming rooster review for the other one it’s on their Google reviews.
I thought the chicken was great the toppings tasted excellent especially when they fell on the plate. However it was not hot at all. I’ve had KFC Nashville hot chicken and it is much spicier. However this is the better choice between the two in my opinion. For the hot chicken sandwich I will give it a 8.5. I wish it were spicier so next time I will be getting the hottest one.

Best fried chicken sandwiches in the DMV . I. I got the honey chicken , it was very good and the spice was subtle enough to let the flavors shine through. The service was great and fast

Oh man. I did not really have a great time here. We went for a dine in lunch. I got the honey butter chicken sandwich and a drink. The sandwich was okay, it didn’t really taste like anything, I didn’t get honey from it at all, and it was super messy and greasy in a bad way. We were assaulted by fruit flies the entire time we ate, there were SO MANY. Tables were unwiped and the one employee we saw was throwing stuff around and clearly unhappy to be there and help us. There are SO MANY good places to go for food in the area, so I don’t think I’ll be back.

Even though I am a loyal repeat customer Roaming rooster typically ranks as an 8/10 for me and this is for 2 reasons. The first is simple, their chicken sandwiches are absolutely incredible but the wax paper that it comes wrapped in absolutely destroys the bun even after only a 5 minute drive home. I ordered it without the wax paper, just in the box and it was far better. and I finally noticed the toasted bun which I never would have typically noticed because the bread is smashed flat and mushy by the wax paper. the chicken was alsp crispier and pushed the sandwich from an 8/10 to a 10/10 even after a 25 minute walk home. The next issue is the fries which are fine if eaten immediately but similarly and soggy, oversalted noodles after sitting in the bag for 5 minutes. Roaming rooster should play around with frying temperature or something to keep them crispy and lower the salt a bit.
The coleslaw is unique, it has Jalapeños and pickled onions in it and is the best I have had in my entire life. I have also heard they have fantastic shakes
–TLDR–
With a few simple fixes(getting rid of the wax paper wrapper on samdwiches and tweaking the french fry recipe to keep them crispy for more than 5 minutes and watchibg the salt level) Roaming rooster could go from an 8/10 to a 10/10 and would be the best fast casual chicken sandwich in the DMV.

There’s not too much to say about Roaming Rooster. If you want a consistently good fried chicken sandwich, this is our favorite spot in the city. They have a range of spiciness levels to accommodate all guests and several different sandwich/non-sandwich options to choose from. These sandwiches are messy, so I wouldn’t suggest eating them on the go (e.g., on public transportation, while driving). Their side of fries is very large, enough so that we shared the order three ways and were still unable to finish everything. Parking can be a bit of a challenge, but circle the block a few times, and you are likely to find something.
