                                                          I did not want to load my plate up. So I got just a little bit of food. When I went back after the choir finished 20 mins later, the food was gone . How can you have an 11:00 reservation and the food ends at 11:30 and it's supposed to be all you can eat buffet!! They apologized and offered me 2 pieces of cold Fried chicken, greens, 2 deviled eggs and potatoes. But I had to take it to go and could not eat it there. I didn’t know that food started at 10:30 as my reservation was for 11:00 am. I also didn’t book the Gospel Brunch, but the hostess asked if we wanted it. I said yes, but our reservation isn’t until 11. That’s okay they are serving now. Not once did any mention the buffet ended at 11:30. Plus they charged me a 20% gratuity! NEVER AGAIN!!

                                                          Dear Dawn, Thank you for being our guest and for sharing your experience with us. We're truly sorry to hear about the confusion and disappointment during your visit to our Gospel Brunch. While we understand how frustrating it must have been, we would like to clarify that Gospel Brunch is a prepaid buffet experience with limited seating between 10:00 and 10:45 AM. The buffet is cleared promptly at 11:45 to prepare for our second show. It appears that there may have been a mix-up with your reservation type, and we apologize that this wasn’t made clearer when you were seated. We've reached out to you privately to connect further, and we look forward to hearing from you soon. Warmly, The Red Rooster Harlem Restaurant Team

                                                          Service was wonderful. Food was delicious. It was Black Restaurant Week, so we had one of the specials. Deviled Eggs, corn bread and Catfish on top of black eye peas (delicious). The only thing I did not like was having to go to the bar to enjoy happy hour pricing for drinks. And, when we said we would share a plate, they said each person at the table had to order and entree. Which in hindsight I shouldn't of said anything. The portion sizes are larger, I had to take some home. Overall, I would recommend you try it out.
