Hands down one of my favorite places to eat. The duck breast was simply superb. The short ribs fell apart in the good kind of melty way fantastically cooked meat does. The staff was so friendly, kind, generous and caring. Could not recommend Rooster’s more, -chef’s kiss- forevermore.

Sunday brunch was excellent, diverse menu including some breakfast classics. Food is always well-prepared. Service was efficient even though it was crowded. Noise level was pretty loud, difficult to talk across the table. All in all a good experience.
