    Rotisserie Chicken Salad (All White Meat) w/1000 island dressing
    Lisa T.

    I go to Roaster's almost every time I'm in Atlanta; and it never disappoints! They specialize in chicken and salads; but also have turkey, ribs, and many other offerings. On my most recent visit I had the white chicken chili which was super thick and full of beans and white chicken chunks. It was really good! I also had a wedge salad which was fresh and flavorful.! My husband had the Mexican chicken breast; which was served over beans and rice. It was a huge portion and he really enjoyed it. The entree came with 2 additional sides and he chose the cornbread stuffing and the cole slaw. He especially liked the Cole slaw. My sister had the rotisserie chicken salad with all white meat. She gets it all the time and absolutely loved it. You really can't go wrong with Roaster's. Everything I've ever ordered is good. They also have fair prices and outstanding service. I'll be back!

    Peach cobbler
    Kevin W.

    This place is in a strip mall/shopping center. The parking lot is pretty small but I am usually able to find a parking spot. I ordered this food to go. Staff was very nice and friendly. Took less than 10 minutes for me to get my food. I got the 1/4 white rotisserie chicken, meatloaf, with broccoli casserole and mac. I also got an order of peach cobbler with roll and cornbread. This was way too much food to eat in one sitting so I tried a sampling of everything while it was hot. They gave the peach cobbler cold but offered to heat it up for me. The chicken tasted great and the bbq made it even better. Meatloaf doesn't look good but it tastes pretty good and the bbq sauce gives it a kick as well. The broccoli casserole is my favorite side with plenty of cheese. The mac is decent but not my favorite. The peach cobbler is also decent. I put the cornbread over the roll.

    White Chicken Chili
    Kien H.

    I loved roasters. The food they have is solid comfort food that may put you to sleep lol. I had the white chicken chili (super filling), ribs, chicken tenders, loaded potato, and bread. Now it may sound odd to say bread...but they have these muffins without panties (that paper that muffins come in usually) and biscuits that are damn everything! The service was good. The last time that I went, we sat outside and they had a leak that was leaking on our table. Trying to convey what was happening to the manager was a little bit pointless because he kept looking at the pipe instead of moving our table, so we moved ourselves. But the waitstaff was super friendly and understanding, even when we had to shift seats all together. I wont take off for the whole pipe thing though, it can happen to anyone. The muffins and biscuits, they are not free like other restaurants, but they are so worth it. They come out warm and the butter spreads so easily, we ordered a few baskets of those (which probably led to us getting full lol). The chili I ordered I thought was going to be a small bowl, nope! It was huge and was probably the reason that I didnt finish my food! But thats okay. The Ribs were pretty flavorful and the chicken tenders were really good with that honey mustard. The potato needed extra sour cream but once I got that, it got devoured too. I want to try something else but I would have no issue getting what I got last time all over again. This spot is not the best food in the world but if you want good and solid comfort food, this one hits for me every time. Depending on what time of day you go, you will have to fight for parking though so just be aware of that (the brunch spot across the parking lot has a lot of traffic). This is a winner to me.

    Side of chicken fingers, and the famous, slow-roasted rotisserie chicken (1/2 mix "Murph's Favorite" w cole slaw and sweet potato soufflé)
    Alyanna T.

    My partner and I ordered the famous, slow-roasted rotisserie chicken (1/2 mix "Murph's Favorite" w cole slaw and sweet potato soufflé), BBQ baby back ribs (w cornbread stuffing and mac & cheese), and a side of chicken fingers - TASTE: 4/5 - the rotisserie chicken was alright, nothing crazy; the dark meat (and skin!) was definitely tastier than the white. The baby back ribs were nice, along w the complimentary cornbread. Fave sides included the seasoned cole slaw and sweet potato soufflé TEXTURE: 4/5 - highlight was definitely the chicken fingers! The breading was great, and the way it was fried was perfection PRICE: 4/5 - prices aren't bad for BBQ SERVING SIZE: 4/5 - good dinner portions, and took some leftovers home SERVICE: 4/5 - we arrived at 5pm on a Sunday and Roasters wasn't busy yet. Our waiter was helpful and patient w the menu and our order ATMOSPHERE: 3/5 - low-key, country-style space PARKING: 5/5 - we found parking toward the back of Lenox Village plaza

    So I finally tried Roasters and have to say it's pretty damn good home cooked meals. When I have my lazy days but want something good I usually lean towards Boston Market style food. Not sure what Boston Market is doing but they have butchered their menu even more regarding sides and now I've discovered Roasters because of it. For about 20-$30 you can get a menu of appetizers to choose from, 2 entrees and 2 sides with a soup. The day I ordered I opted for a spinach dip, chicken and rice soup, an order of tenders and a qtr chicken with mashed potatoes and spinach. The food was healthy, filling and delicious! This is my new spot for quick wholesome meals. The tenders are probably some of the best I've had and aren't covered in a thick crunchy batter. They have a batter but offer more chicken and not overly salted. The dipping sauces that come with them are delicious as well.

    Chicken Plate 2 VEG : bbq sauce, steamed broccoli & loaded baked potato
    Kyja W.

    I was craving a baked potato tonight and decided to search for restaurants nearby that would get the job done. I selected the "chicken plate 2 veg" with homemade bbq, loaded baked potato, and steamed broccoli from Roasters, via UberEats. With that said, I obviously can't speak on ambiance, but service seemed to pack my order up pretty quick which was great. Upon arrival, I was pleased with how nicely it was packaged, and the food looked appetizing. As for the food, which is the main reason you're reading the reviews, I'm sure, read on... The steamed broccoli tasted up to standard, but to my preference, could've been steamed just a tad longer. The loaded baked potato satisfied my craving. I squeezed the sour cream in it and mixed it all up. The bacon bits, green onion, and cheese added great flavor to the potato. I only wish that it was even more loaded. The toppings were a bit sparse and could've definitely used more, especially for a potato of this size. Sadly, the chicken was my least favorite item in the bunch. One bite I took had either a tendon or a small bone in it. It freaked me out, so I spit it out and didn't investigate further. From then on, I was careful with my bites. Unfortunately, the meat itself tasted completely seasonless. If it wasn't for the average quality bbq sauce that I smothered extra of on top of it, I probably wouldn't have eaten it. Overall, my meal was just okay. If I'm in the mood for a baked potato again (which is hardly ever, for me, as I usually crave potato in other forms such as tater tots, hash browns, mashed, French fries, etc.), I'd consider ordering from here again. Otherwise, I probably won't, if I'm being honest. Perhaps I just made the wrong protein choice. The chicken tenders looked good, so I may give it another chance and try those. We'll see!

    Update-Took my wife here again still great food!Service! and ambiance. I had turkey and dressing with sweet potato soufflé and broccoli-cauliflower casserole. Very good! Bread was hot and filling.

    Creamed Spinach
    LaShawnda G.

    Was on a date with my boyfriend and had reservations for another nearby restaurant before we were scheduled to go to the Georgia Aquarium. We waited over half an hour for the other restaurant and still were not sat down yet. After deliberating, we decided to go to roasters which was within the same plaza. When we walked in it smelled absolutely delicious. We were then immediately sat down to order. Our waitress greeted us as she approached us with water. She took our drink orders and once delivered she took our food order. I ordered some wine and my date a beer. Drinks were good. No cocktails, just your standard beer and wine, which were enjoyed. We both ordered the combo plate and selected the roasted chicken, ribs, creamed spinach and Mac n cheese. All the food was tasty, fresh and served hot. Our waitress Dulce was great she was quick and through. She made sure she checked on us regularly and gave menu suggestions as needed. Overall a great experience. I'll be sure to return one day.

The shrimp was fresh and not overcooked or rubbery. The grits were smooth. The gravy was well seasoned, but not overly salty or rich. The cornbread and bread or biscuit was good, but not extraordinary. Those were quite dense and heavy paired with the other food. I loved the banana pudding. This meal jumpstarted my banana pudding hyper fixation. Very fragrant and not too thick yet still nice and creamy. It wasn't overly sweet or heavy either. It was a good dessert to round out the meal. I hope to come here again and have an actual sit down experience. Curious to see the ambiance!

I've known of this highly lauded business…read morefor years but never found the right day when I was craving soul food and in the area to order. Until recently. I decided to have a tapas-style dinner with food from The Works and just had to grab some chicken from Delilah's. The menu is plentiful without being overwhelming, except when it comes to picking a favorite between the flavorful options. I knew that I didn't want or need a full meal and opted for their 3 whole wing option that came paired with cornbread. The young man who took my order was so polite and patient, as there were a few folks in line and waiting for previously placed orders. He let me know that my order would be ready in about 15 minutes so I took the time to continue my food-finding journey around the market. When I returned later, I had lost track of time and figured I'd just poke my head around their stall to see if my chicken was ready. It wasn't at that moment but I took some time to observe the process. There was only one guy in the open kitchen and prep area creating all of the meals and he was on the move. If I could add smells to my review, this one would smell like fried chicken and cornbread. It was all so fresh! When my order was ready, I only made one other stop before heading to my car to go home to my family... but not before I tested those whole wings from Delilah's. When I say that they were fresh out of the grease? Babehhh. It's like he just threw them right into the basket only seconds before. It was sooo crunchy, so juicy, just a fantastic wing. The hot sauce was a nice pairing but some spice in the breading/meat would have taken it over the top but this chicken was delicious. No notes.

This is walk-in only I believe and they will send you a text notification once your table is ready. My friend and I shared the following dishes: - Biscuit Donuts: A weekend special. These were warm, crispy on the outside, soft on the inside and perfectly sweet. Delicious and I can imagine how good the savory version of these are. - Chicken + Waffle: Wow, among some of the best chicken and waffles I've ever had. The chicken was juicy and the breading was perfect. Only downside is I wish the chicken portion was bigger. The waffle was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. A perfect texture. With the butter and maple syrup, it all worked so well together. A must. - Spiced Maple Chicken & Grits: Really great grits texture and flavor! This dish was overall good, but pales in comparison to the other dishes we had. I do think the hot sauce overpowered the dish a bit, so I would recommend toning it down. It also had a very generous amount of bacon which was nice. The service here was great, a Southern hospitality staple. The interior is homey and cozy, like dining at someone's house. For parking, they do have free spots behind the restaurant, but it can get packed. Overall, I highly recommend this spot if you're looking for an authentic Southern breakfast option in Atlanta!

I'll keep it simple the food was good, don't get me wrong. But for the price, it just didn't match up. This is one of those places that works if you're trying to impress clients or enjoy the atmosphere. Strip away the location, and the food-to-price ratio probably lands much lower. Just my take.

While I admire their aspiration, the fact that I and many others didn't even get to try their self proclaimed world famous chicken makes that lofty goal pretty impossible to attain. What I mean by that is their service and kitchen are so extremely slow that they are constantly turning customers away. On a trip to Atlanta, I visited the restaurant with a party of 5. We seated ourselves because the sign told us to do so. But for more than 20 minutes we were ignored. I had to grab menus myself and had the greatest difficulty flagging down a server. When I was finally able to flag someone down to take orders, they said the food will be a 40-60min wait. First impression of this place is horrible, floors are sticky and a part of the table was not properly cleaned off with chicken batter crumbs still present. The restaurant was quite busy when we arrived, but the lack of service and care is totally unforgivable. I heard from a friend after the fact, who came by the restaurant earlier that same evening, that the situation was similar at that point. At that point the restaurant was pretty empty, and they said the estimated food wait time was more or less the same as what we were told. We left right after without trying the chicken. And so did my friend who tried visiting earlier in the evening. World famous? Not quite.
