I enjoyed my visit to the Red Rooster yesterday. The temperature, taste and quantity of food was very good. Most of the dishes we experienced was excellent. We tasted several of the menu selections. Loved the deviled eggs, fried chicken and jerk salmon . Service was very professional but friendly. The price for the quality of the food we ate was more than welcomed. I loved my experience at Red Rooster and would choose this restaurant again if I’m in this area again.

First time and really enjoyed our experience our pre-Opera lunch on a Sunday afternoon. Arrived early for a reservation and staff was very accommodating. We had an omelette which was fluffy and delicious; salmon with couscous and spinach - cooked as requested but a little salty; Burger was delicious (but also a little salty). Staff was attentive and all around a great experience. If you go be sure to eat inside - Ambiance is NOT to be missed
