Prices are fair other than drink prices which were a little high. The food was delicious and had a nice appearance. The crab on the creamy linguini tasted surprisingly fresh as well. Every staff member was extremely polite as well. I will say, there were a couple individuals who appeared to be regulars that acted as if they were over served and when they left, the bartender said "I love you guys, have a good one," which was a little much even if it's for the sake of getting tips from regulars who aren't responsible enough to hold their liquor properly. The same patrons at the bar were also extremely loud which reminds you that it is a "bar" and not a fancy restaurant despite the amazing food and staff. The food and professionalism from the majority of the staff simply did not match the appearance of the workers who wore personal t-shirts which makes the whole experience feel a lot more casual despite the prices. Regardless we will be back due to the treatment from the staff and the great food!

Stopped by Rooster's about an hour before showtime at the Keswick, across the street. It was busy…read moreon a Wednesday, assume that was due to the show. It took a minute to get a table and then waited a little for a server, but once she came by and got the drink and food order, everything went very quickly. I had the falafel wrap, which was excellent, and it came with a side Caesar salad, also excellent. Good prices, too; the 16-ounce Miller Lites were only four dollars each. I'd definitely stop by here again when I'm in Glenside for a show at the Keswick. It's probably a good idea to reserve a table on concert nights. There were only two people in my party and they got us in, but it was very busy, so something to keep in mind for next time.

Pros: Conveniently located right across from the Keswick…read moreTheatre--perfect for a quick bite before a show. It's clearly a neighborhood favorite because it was packed. The bar area was quite large and it appears in the warmer weather that one of the exterior walls retracts. Our server, Rachael, was wonderful: friendly, attentive, and genuinely pleasant. The drink menu included one of my favorite ciders, and the tap lines must be well-maintained because it tasted exactly as it should. The fries were simple but surprisingly good. Cons: Unfortunately, the food itself really missed the mark. The fried pickles were unlike any we've had--and we order them often. They were overloaded with greasy batter that tasted more like a donut than a savory appetizer. The wings were another disappointment. We love wings and usually finish an order easily, but these had an overwhelming vinegar flavor that made them tough to eat. We ended up leaving almost half the order. Overall: The standout of the entire visit was the service. If we could sit in Rachael's section again, we might consider giving the place a second chance--but strictly for the service, not the food.

While vacationing my hubby and I decided to keep dinner simple and casual. We ordered takeout from…read moreUnion Jack's Pub. We went with the 20-piece Southern Country Garlic Wings and the Philly Cheesesteak Egg Rolls. Overall, the flavor did not disappoint! The wings were incredibly delicious, packed with garlicky Southern flavor and served jumbo style, which was a nice touch. However, I do wish we had asked for them fried hard. The texture would've been much better that way. One small downside was the fatty bits left on the wings before frying, which made them a tad bit annoying to eat. At $26.99 for 20 wings, they were definitely on the pricey side. The Philly Cheesesteak Egg Rolls had a great crunch, but they were extremely small. Flavor-wise, they were decent, though I've had better. At $13.99, I expected a little more in size and portion. Despite a few minor critiques, we enjoyed our meal and appreciated the no fuss dinner option. Would I come back? Possibly, but next time I'm asking for those wings fried extra hard! Rating: 3.5

We were around the mall and couldn't decide what to eat…read more I like that the menu has an under 700 cal meals. That really helps when you're trying to pick. The decor in this place is confused but the food was excellent. We were actually surprised how good it was. You sit down and you can order the apps from a small screen right away. That's pretty cool. Get you started while you wait for your server. We got the hummus appetizer and that was truly amazing. Some of the best hummus I've had. My wife agreed. She hit the BLT club and garlic fries. She liked it a lot. I got the Ahi Tuna off the under 700 cal menu and it was absolutely delicious. So I would def go here again.

It's all so fresh and delicious and the server was really attentive. Highly recommend!

Extremely disappointing dining experience…read more The food was clearly not fresh. The crab had a strong, unpleasant fishy odor that made it impossible to eat. The Sichuan spicy hot pot base was even worse--it tasted very bitter and was completely inedible, nothing like authentic Sichuan flavor. On top of that, the service was misleading. We were told there would be a 5% discount for paying in cash, but no discount was applied in the end. Our total was $63.98, and even after a supposed $2.24 discount, the subtotal still remained $63.98, which makes no sense and feels deceptive. Overall, very poor experience in both food quality and integrity. Definitely will not return.

We were sat at the upstairs bar, as we were looking at a 45 minute wait otherwise.

The cocktail menu looked delicious but we passed on drinking today. The beet salad had a nice twist with pears. We asked for extra goat cheese to add more of a salted balance to the salad and I would definitely order it again. My husband really liked the crispy duck dumplings, I can really appreciate the crisp which was perfectly executed. The soup of the day was a shrimp and crab chowder and was very tasty. Birria tacos left a little to be desired, a little salty and lacked a wow! The star of the meal was the mango and apricot sorbet! Perfect blend of deliciousness! Definitely recommend this place.

Overall, the food was delicious and everyone enjoyed their meals -- except for the wings. Since it was Tuesday, they were on the half-price wing special, but they were extremely overcooked, tough, and honestly tasted like leftovers. That was a real disappointment given how good everything else was. Another issue I noticed was in the restroom. Instead of the toilet paper being stocked in the holder, the large rolls were sitting on the back of the toilet, which felt pretty unsanitary. Having to reach behind to grab and unravel a roll that's been handled by many people (and sitting right by the toilet) was off-putting. So while the main dishes were great, I'd caution anyone coming on wing night and hope management takes a closer look at both the wing prep and the restroom setup.

Definitely recommended if you're in the area.
