I love Roaming Rooster. Whenever someone asks me what my favorite local fried chicken is that is…read morenot a massive national chain, I usually say this one. Long ago, when I was working in dc, I remember their food truck being all that they had and I would walk 15 minutes just to get their sandwich. And then they popped up in a food hall nearby, and now they have several locations around the DMV! I love their chicken tenders, but I am obsessed with the honey butter sandwich. And give me all the heat! I can easily handle the hot, but medium is a safer choice for me. And it's Black-owned! I saw on the menu that they have the summer refreshers, so I'm sure those are great. I'll try one next time!

It's in a mini shopping area with a decent amount of parking. There is no seating inside so it's 100% takeout. Like the name says, it's pretty much different combinations (and varieties) of fried chicken and fried fish. I got some of the chicken tenders and the whiting. The girls thought the strips were ok but I thought the whiting was great (reminded me of how my mom made it). The folks that worked there were nice. I should have gotten an order of the fried chicken but that will be for the next visit.

First time trying something other than the beef patties and I enjoyed!!! Do they have attitudes?…read moreSome, yes!! But that's what makes the food delicious!!! The brown stew chicken was cooked perfectly, and I was pleasantly surprised by the mac & cheese. Usually I avoid mac&cheese at Caribbean restaurants, but this one tasted as good as it looked. I like my cabbage much softer than the way they prepare theirs, but that's my preference. I asked for pepper sauce on the side because that's the only hot sauce they offered. Patties!!! Get the beef patties. Crust is perfect, and so is the filling. Avoid the curry shrimp patty! After a couple bites, I noticed I wasn't tasting any shrimp. So i sliced the patty and opened it up, and there were TWO salad size shrimp in there, with curry sauce spread throughout the rest. I wish I took a picture.

Sunday 2/9/25 This…read morespot was brought to my attention due to Instagram, and I made sure to plan my visit after realizing how close it was to my dad's house. I called to order pickup, and the service was nice and friendly. Also, the spot is very reliable, as it's open until midnight and roughly 16 hours of the day, serving many different options, from fast food to comfort food. I ordered the combo over rice ($13), the Philly cheesesteak combo with French fries and lemonade ($15.49), five wings with one waffle ($13.49), and a carrot cake slice ($4). - The fried chicken wings were alright for your typical fast food chicken. - Waffle was decent: it was soft & fluffy. - The combo over rice was solid, and I liked the chicken the most. - Philly cheesesteak was okay and would've been even better if it had provolone instead of the cheese whiz. - French fries were solid: they were crispy with some seasoning on them. - The house-made lemonade was alright, and I would be open to getting it again. - The carrot cake isn't anything crazy, it's alright, but I do appreciate the $4 price tag cause others would charge double or more for a slice. Overall, the spot does a good job with fair pricing, fast comfort food, and reliable hours. I'd come back and recommend.

We were greeted as we walked in and we ordered the Rainbow Salad with hot sauce. Our order was taken promptly and we paid and sat down. It didn't take too long and our plates were put on the counter to be picked up. Since we were both hungry we kept looking at the servers who were walking around but none of them picked up our food to serve us. It was frustrating to watch them walk around and no one stopped to bring us our food especially since they weren't busy. By the time the waiter did bring us our food it was not hot though not cold. However, after they brought our food a couple of staff came by to ask if we wanted anything else. At that point we were fine and as expected the food was quite delicious. Everything else was great, the dining room was brightly decorated and clean. There's plenty of parking. I highly recommend.

They also offer chicken wings with an extensive selection flavors, tacos, subs, lamb over rice, and gyros. I believe where this place is located used to be a Pakistani/Indian takeout restaurant. That place struggled in its last days. It is interesting that Charbroiled Chicken & Grill serves lamb chops, lamb over rice, and gyros; perhaps to capture some of the clientele from the previous establishment. The menu is diverse and makes you wonder which of the ethnic cuisines they are most dedicated to when it comes to quality and authenticity. I've only experienced the Peruvian-influenced dishes which are consistent and delicious. In general, those items are what you'd expect from similar Peruvian-style restaurants in the DMV. After a few visits it is safe to say this place serves good charbroiled chicken. Their green sauce is delicious and similar to the original green sauce from Sardi's when they first hit the scene in PG County. One of these days I will try the chicken wings and tacos.
