    I stopped by after craving fried chicken and seeing all the great Yelp reviews in the area and I'm so glad I did. The food is cooked fresh to order and came out piping hot. I ordered the tenders with medium heat and they were exactly as described, flavorful with just the right kick and surprisingly tender. The French fries tasted like they went straight from potato to fryer and were definitely homemade. And the club chicken sandwich was so good. Juicy, well seasoned and stacked just right. I originally came for one item but ended up leaving with fried chicken coleslaw, nuggets and a Beltway box, all thanks to Eric who deserves his own shoutout. I spent $20 more than I originally planned. He was top tier in customer service and apparently sales (HA!) He mentioned he usually works in the back but he needs to stay up front and get a raise. I watched him receive three compliments back to back from other customers while I was waiting and I can see why. Delicious food and outstanding service means I'll definitely be back.

    I was craving a spicy chicken sandwich and decided to finally try Roaming Roosters. I went with a honey butter chicken sandwich and ordered it hot. We also got fries and tried the coleslaw. The sandwich was big and had lots of chicken. The sandwich with the honey butter was so delicious! The fries tasted fresh and was more than plenty to share. The coleslaw was different from what I'm used to. I would probably add it to my sandwich rather than eat it on its own. The sandwiches are pricy, but considering the size and quality, I'd pay it again. Overall, good place and worth the visit!

    Juicy & flavorful nuggets , great price, quick service, and plenty of space to sit down. What more can you ask from a hot chicken place?

    I had the honey butter chicken. It comes with honey mustered sauce and a pink sauce. I liked the honey mustered the best with the sandwich. The sandwich itself didn't have a lot of flavor so the sauce you choose really makes the sandwich. The chicken was cooked well and crispy. The spicy heat is not that bad it's more like a zing. The sandwich is pretty large so I didn't get the fries. I think next time I'll try the chicken strips with the sauce.

    This was my first time trying Roaming Rooster and unlike most of my food experiences, it actually lived up to the hype! I got the Buffalo Chicken Sandwich (I added lettuce and tomato) and the chicken was hot, fresh and juicy. I appreciated that I could select my desired level of spiciness. Warning...the extra hot really is EXTRA HOT! I regularly enjoy spicy foods but this sandwich ended up being waaaaaaaaaay too hot for me and was almost inedible. I know what you're thinking....I swear I'm not a heat/spice wuss and I enjoy even the hottest of Buffalo Wings but this was on a whole other level! I know better now and will order a few heat levels down from extra hot so I can actually enjoy my food. This location was completely empty when I arrived to pick up my order, the service was fast and from what I saw, it looked clean. It was a little dark in there for some reason and with it being in the middle of the day. I ordered online so I'm sure that helped with how fast I received my order.

    Been dying to try this place for years, and recently found out there was actually a location near me. It was definitely worth the wait, very tasty and the staff were nice.

    I have been wanting to try this place for some time and was glad my schedule allowed it. Ordered food to go and got OG Nashville sandwich and Honey Biscuist sandwich with an order of fries and chicken nuggets. The OG Nashville sandwich was amazing. I wish the sandwich came with fries because a meal isn't complete without side of fries. Shared an order of fries with my husband and also got chicken nuggets. I am not a fan of this parking lot but this place may make it worthwhile. I am adding this to my rotation for lunch and you will too after coming here.

    First time here and still lots of craving for fried chicken sammies. Very glad it opened here as this area has seen some new places open lately (Taco Bamba). The interior is clean and a bit sparse though and they serve Pepsi products for soft drinks. The staff was very friendly though. A+ for service. Chicken tasted fresh and was nice and hot. Not over cooked and perfectly fried. Their mild sauce has a good kick to it. Wonder how their spicy feels. The rooster sauce almost reminds me of chik fil a sauce and other sauces cost 75 cents extra. For those craving for fried chicken sandwiches, tenders, nuggets (not small size like McDonald's), check this new place out! I would order the fries, but the price is high, like almost everywhere. Maybe they can offer a combo meal?

    The coleslaw is mayo free and the cilantro really brings joy to my tastebuds. I was able to sample the coleslaw ( I don't care for mayo in veggies) and the vinegar base was perfect. I ordered my chicken medium heat and it has a nice little tingle, no runny nose or fire breathing ( I love heat) but it may be spicy for those who have low heat tolerance. Dakota was very helpful and the entire staff was pleasant. I watched them help another customer update an online order. The space is cozy so I wouldn't recommend bringing a crowd of friends but a simple lunch for a few people would work great. Per usual, I love the fact that it's halal. I didn't care for the pickles but I believe most would enjoy it.

    The food here is delicious. I have gone 3 times since the opened. There's nothing like a good fried chicken spot. I'd recommend the OG Nashville hot. It is a little pricey if you want fries with it but they are more known for their chicken. So most people just get a chicken sandwich and head out. This location replaced the old duck donuts spot. I will say I am not sure they did the best they could with the spacing because it used to look huge at the duck donuts and now it looks pretty small. There are about 6 tables for 2 people and 2 tables for 4 people inside. But most people pick up the food to go. If you want the food quick, I'd recommend ordering online.

To my luck, we had great Uzbek food less than 15 mins away! It was a while ago but we ordered the samsa, manti, kutabi, plov, and chohohbli, and I can't recall what else but we loved it! Last night my husband and I decided to dine in. The restaurant is beautifully decorated with cultural artifacts and art. This may just be a me thing but the serveware was envy worthy. It was gorgeous. I'm obsessed with beautiful dishware. There were only two people taking orders and serving food for an almost full dining room so we were understanding of a bit of a wait time. The staff were very friendly and checked in on us when they could. We ordered the khachipuri, samsa, oxtail, chohobli, steamed rice, pilmeni, and hot tea. Both the khachipuri and samsa were flaky pastries: khachapuri filled with a salty stretchy cheese with a cheese pull that tasted better than it was Instagram-able and samsa filled with a savory meat/onion mixture served with a tomato based sauce. Get one per person because you will not want to share. We ordered fried mini dumplings which are filled with meat and also served with same tomato based sauce that came with the samsa. They were delicious but afterwards I saw that you can get them steamed in a broth, I told myself I have to get that next time. The slow-cooked, tender oxtail was served over the best crispy, fat-fried potatoes I've ever had. The chohobli (chicken stew) was fall off the bone into a delicious tomato-based stew. We ordered the rice to sop up the delicious stew. The tea really helped to cut the richness of all the delicious food. I have not shut up about this place since we had this meal. I will rave about it to just about anyone that will listen in hopes that they will come with me next time so we can order more dishes to share.

The lamb loin kebab was tender and tasty, and at $10.99 a bargain! The shrimp kabab was just as affordable, yet I though I though they were a bit overdone. Worth a visit - help keep authentic restaurants in business.

It's the perfect way to wake up your palate. * Shrimp Yum Salad: The shrimp were plump and perfectly cooked, tossed in a bright, herbaceous dressing that tasted incredibly authentic. * The Fried Whole Fish (Pla Rad Prik): This was the showstopper. The fish was crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and seasoned to perfection.

Our drinks were delicious and strong, and the food was reasonably priced and pretty tasty. We left stuffed and had to go boxes so you can say you get a bang for your buck. We did have an issue with one of our entrees, but it was quickly handled with care. All in all, zero complaints. Burtons is a solid choice for a casual restaurant.

I reached out and was speaking to the back end and was told that they were sorry for the quality and quantity of food and that they would mail me a gift card. I am attaching a photo of receipt of how much we ordered. We ordered a chocolate cake, the photo online showed a massive slice of cake, ours looked as if someone cut half of it off where the cake is supposed to be pointed. $12 for half a cake. My bfs meal was supposed to come with two sides. He ordered mashed potatoes and cole slaw. The mashed potatoes were in with the steak and it was a small portion that looked like a small ice cream scoop, ribeye ($49.00). We did not get the Cole slaw. We ordered a house side salad. It was literally a huge chunk of iceberg lettuce thrown in a bowl with some of the sides. ($14.00) I ordered the steak frites (34.00) the fries were fine, my steak had these weird pieces (see photo) inside, that were veins or ligaments but def not edible and very chewy and gross. I chewed a few pieces and kept having to over chew and then would spit out the pieces because it was rubbery, after the second piece I noticed the texture and then spit it out, then saw whatever it was that was causing the texture and issue. Seeing that immediately made me lose my appetite. So I was left hungry and turned off by my meal and filled up on calamari and fries. I have ordered this before and it usually comes with a nice amount of slices. Mine came with four pieces of sliced steak. We ordered the calamari and had no complaints. The back end comes to my house and drops off a GC of $25.00! Which to me is an insult. For that they can keep their cheap cop out. I will not be back. We spent $134.00 and tipped $19.00 for a take out order. And all they could give us back for a terrible experience and quality of food was $25.00?! Their salad alone was $14. The cake is $12. So basically come back spend more money and we will cover one simple thing but several of your items were sub par and or gross. I would not recommend. This restaurant took a lot of money and did the bare minimum to fix the issue and threw a minimum amount to appease the customer. But didn't mind taking my hard earned money, which I will now spend elsewhere. I also will be mailing back the card. Whoever came to my condo to drop off the gift card came at midnight. Which to me is weird and an odd time to come to someone's house. I have it on security video.
