Cajun Louisiana Shrimp Basket and loaded fries
Nick F.

The Hungry Buffalo is a great stop after a day in Hocking Hills for families and four legged friends. We sat on the patio and were happy to see that kids eat for .99 on Sunday's! The menu was diverse with options galore. I was torn between the Monte Cristo and Fried Green Tomato BLT. I went with the Fried Green Tomato BLT and fries loaded with cheese and bacon. The sandwich had house made garlic aioli and the ranch was perfect. The outdoor patio area had corn hole and axe throwing and it just was a great finish to the day. An ode to southern Ohio ambience and charm.

Roach in the bathroom

Terrible place to eat, found a roach in the bathroom and the food was just salty af. Crumbs on the floor from previous customers. Table was sticky. I would eat there again if it was the last place on earth.

Louisiana shrimp basket

Food was not good. Shrimp basket had almost no shrimp. Coleslaw was drowning in mayo.

Apple Bourbon Chicken and Sweet Potato fries
Steven R.

My wife and I stopped here for dinner while visiting Hocking Hills State Park. We were quite hungry and this place seemed better than going to a chain restaurant. Upon entering, we were greeted by two young teenagers that were serving as hosts. One of the teenagers immediately tried to seat us in the bar area. When we told him we would rather not sit there, he seemed surprised. My wife the Chicken Philly sandwich which came on 12 inches of bread but had only 6 inches of meat. I ordered the Appke Bourbon Chicken which came with " southwest rice". We shared some sweet potato fries. The Philly Chicken tasted okay (according to my wife). The Apple Bourbon chicken wasn't freshly grilled and you could tell by the taste and texture. The rice tasted like it was microwaved. The best part of the meal were the sweet potato fries. Ambience was classic sports bar, service was good (but huge tips were expected). Can't really recommend this place when a much better option is across the street.

Chicken burrito

Had a decent experience here. Went in a Wednesday evening . Had decent food and good service. I heard a lot of mixed reviews that this place was hit or miss. This time it was a hit. Again food is decent and our service was good.

The server was great...that is all I can say about the Hungry Buffalo. After an hour wait to get in...not worth the time or the money.

Wait was ridiculous, and twice as long as they said it would be. We gave up and went across the parking lot to Millstone. Good grief.

Felt 2 stars was pushing it as the food was generic and not a lot of flavor. But portions were good and service was decent too.

Roosters in Lancaster is exactly what it looks like: bar food, lots of TVs, plenty of beer and…read moredrinks, and a fun, energetic atmosphere. We went with five adults and two kids, and it worked well for the group. Food allergies and sensitivities are always part of the adventure for us. My wife deals with gluten and dairy, while I bring tree nuts and Alpha-Gal to the party, plus the diabetes kicker just to keep things interesting. Roosters actually made this easier than a lot of restaurants. They have a separate allergen menu, and the staff was helpful working through our choices. Roosters also recommends letting the manager on duty know about allergies before ordering. I had the fried chicken salad, which was exactly what I was looking for: straightforward bar food disguised as responsible eating because technically there was lettuce involved. The Lancaster menu offers both full and half versions of the fried chicken salad. Anjelina had the potato skins without cheese, and the kitchen was able to make that modification for her. The standard version comes with mozzarella, cheddar, bacon bits and sour cream, so this was definitely a customized order. The atmosphere is definitely bar first, restaurant second, but in a good way. I counted 10 TVs in a relatively small space, so if there is a sporting event happening somewhere on planet Earth, there is a reasonable chance you can watch it here. Good selection of beers and drinks as you would expect from a place that clearly embraces its bar identity. Kids are absolutely fine here. I probably wouldn't choose it for a serious business meal because of the noise and TVs, and I wouldn't recommend it for a first date where you're actually hoping to hear each other's life stories. But a casual date after you've already established that you like each other? Absolutely. Families, friends, kids, sports and casual meals all fit right in. Good for: Families and kids, casual dates, groups and watching sports Business meal: Not really First date: Probably not if conversation is the objective Later dates: Definitely Allergy awareness: Very good, particularly having a separate allergen menu and helpful staff Roosters isn't trying to be something it's not. It's a lively sports bar with solid food, lots of TVs and enough attention to food allergies to make our complicated little dining circus considerably easier.

Excellent food great service every time!! i've been going to Roosters for years and haven't ever…read morehad a bad experience. It really is a laid-back casual joint.
