Reviews
I’m a big fan of Chicken and Waffles and have tried them in various parts of the country so I approached Roscoe’s with anticipation. Our server was great and pointed out the best item to order, and I went with the 2 pieces of dark meat and waffles.
The chicken was great. It was crispy and tender and had decent flavor. The waffles weren’t anything special, but complimented the flavor of the chicken well. A little bit of syrup and some of the house hot sauce and I was ready to go.
Overall, this was a decent meal. I wouldn’t say it was anything out of the ordinary, but it was a good experience and fun to eat at a local place with some history. Overall, I would go back as the service was great and the vibe fun.
I also tried the hot chocolate. It tasted fine, but it wasn’t hot enough and was almost cold, which was a little disappointing. The place is in a nice location, but parking was definitely a hassle.
We added cornbread and mac & cheese on the side. Mac & cheese delicious, creamy, no notes. Cornbread… well, let’s just say I really wanted to like it, but it didn’t quite live up to the hype in my head.
The vibe was super chill, maybe too chill since it was just us and one other guest. Customer service was a bit hit-or-miss. The guy who greeted us? Awesome energy, super welcoming. Our waitress, on the other hand, seemed like she’d rather be anywhere else and honestly, can’t blame her, it was a beautiful day outside. Still, a little extra warmth would’ve matched the food better.
All in all: great chicken, cozy vibe, and some small areas for improvement. Definitely worth a visit if you’re craving chicken and waffles done right!
We arrived at 10:30AM, and got lucky with a parking spot right in-front. We were three people and were sat right away.
I had the one chicken piece with one waffle and banana pudding.
It not just hype, the chicken is delicious, it was Crispy and Juicy, I was for my waffle crispy. Also had the banana pudding, I love the little chunks of waffle in it.
I had waffles, chicken tenders, wings, potatoes, gravy, coleslaw, mac and cheese.
Roughly ended up at $40 ish dollars per person before drinks.
Waffles? Whatever: they weren’t crisp, they didn’t have anything unique, just basic motel lobby free-breakfast waffle.
The chicken tenders were a disgrace to the foul that unelectedley laid its life down to make a masquerade of what tasted like Sahara dried chicken jerky fried in a perfect blend of pointlessness, blandness, and despair. No exaggeration when I say this: this was the worst takeout/ sit down fried chicken I have ever had. Worse than most grocery store deli fried chicken.
Mac and cheese was a solid-ish block of mushy macaroni with a slight taste of hopes and dreams that was the cheese trying to come through to say hello to the taste buds that were begging for some action. A friend who loves all mac and cheese got this as his side, and he didn’t even finish his portion, I never seen that before. That man could eat, even when it’s whatever.
The best thing I ate was the gravy which tastes like it was made from a McCormick gravy packet and diluted with water for that scrumptious blend of “this kinda has some flavor if I really think about it and gaslight my brain a bit”.
I am genuinely lost at how this place charges astronomical prices for food that I would pay to never eat again.
