Cuisine: 8 Service: 6 Decor: 7 Value: 10 Overall: 8 I rarely update my reviews, but this place needs to be recognized as the Brooklyn institution that it is. They say some things age like fine wine, and I believe this restaurant falls in that category. After 55 years, this family oriented fast food shop known for its famous roast beef sandwich and other popular greasy goodness is still standing. I swung by recently for my usuals and glad to report that everything still tasted the same, just slightly more pricey year after year as expected. My regular order has always been the Roast Beef w/ Cheese, which was maybe $4 when I first tasted it over 25 years ago. It is now $9.45 or $.50 less for no cheese. Regardless, the roast beef (medium) is still tender and juicy, piled on top of a soft and pillowy, freshly made bread that's been dunked in a bath of delicious beef gravy. The ooey gooey cheese makes it complete for me. Everything else is solid. Nothing fantastic or worth driving out of your way for. Don't come here looking for the best version of everything on the menu. However, if in the neighborhood, this place is an inexpensive experience that brings you back in time, when the world was less complicated and a night out with family meant a delicious trip to a local restaurant like Roll-N-Roaster. Enjoy it for what it is and you'll have a good time. read more

In this day and age when places that have been around forever cut corners and quality, Roll-N-Roaster is an example of doing it right. Driving through Brooklyn and stopped for the first time in prob. 10 years, and it was the same quality, portion and taste as I remembered. I'm not even a big roast beef fan but it is just so good here, and their fries are legendery, too. Their iced tea and lemonade is also memorable, in a good way. We spent enough ($50) to get a free pizza and that too was tasty - thin crust. Can't wait to stop by again in another few years. It's worth the stop. read more

Roll-N-Roaster is a Brooklyn treasure. This is one of the most unique and special restaurants I have ever been to. I finally made the pilgrimage today and it was beyond worth the trip. The menu is large and seemingly random but somehow perfect. Juice is a great accompaniment to beef sandwiches, apparently. There is also great coffee and even bottles of Moet if that is your thing. The signature sandwich is everything I hoped it would be. Make sure to get the beef juice cup for dipping. Everything I tasted here was exceptional from the roll, to the beef, the fries, the espresso, and the orangeade. On top of all that, there is somehow also a free pizza? Nothing is better than free pizza, especially a delicious thin crust bar pie like this one. The decor in this place is a throwback to like a 70s or 80s family restaurant. I would say it's a nostalgia trip but nothing about Roll-N-Roaster seems entirely typical for that time or any other. When I went today, it was packed, but they moved quickly and efficiently. This place has it all figured out. The only downside to Roll-N-Roaster is that I live kind of far from it. That's probably a good thing. If I lived too close to here, I would become very, very, fat. I could live on Roll-N-Roaster. I love you, Roll-N-Roaster. read more

Had seen a video of this spot pop up on my FYP and when I showed it to my Dad he told me he grew up going there when he lived in Brooklyn. Such a cool, nostalgic spot. Heads up: parking lot was horrible, so definitely plan to try for street parking. Got the classic roast beef sandwich with pan drippings on the side and it was good. I've never had gravy or anything like that with my roast beef sandwich so it was completely different taste for me, but it was delicious. The place itself felt like stepping back in time though. Would I drive all the way back for it? Probably not. But if I'm in the area again would I go back and try the burger which was also highly recommended? Possibly, if I got a good parking spot! read more

Roll-N-Roaster - American Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

We don't spend a ton of time in Sheepshead Bay because it's a little out of our way, but we love a post-beach adventure at this Brooklyn landmark. It's huge, it's affordable, it's the most casual (good for when you're in a damp, sandy bathing suit), and it rocks a menu that hasn't changed in the past decade, and maybe not in the past half century. I don't know anywhere else that you can get a glass of wine for $4.95 these days, or a beer for $4.45. Order whatever sounds good to you, but know that: 1. You should get cheezburgers. I personally prefer their simplicity to the roast beef, even if the latter is what they're known for. 2. You should also get roast beef. At least once, and definitely dipped, or with the gravy on the side. The gravy makes it. 3. The rolls are all baked from scratch. Appreciate some fresh bread, in a world where almost all affordable burgers come on a potato roll. Yeah, sometimes it may not be quite as fresh as others, but I still love it. 4. Yes, you can get cheez on anything you pleez. And you should. 5. You should add on something you've never gotten every time. Wings, clam strips, a fried shrimp cup...It's all going to be way more affordable than you think, and likely the best or the worst. Someday I'm getting the bottle of Moet for $59.95. To celebrate just being at Roll-N-Roaster. 6. You shouldn't sleep on the pizza. Yeah, it's not GREAT, but it's pretty solid, and it's somehow $4.95! It's thin crust and it's perfect for kids. And this isn't a personal pizza, it fed four kids with some leftovers. Unbelievable steal in 2025. 7. You should get at least one milkshake (to split, probably). They use a full pint of ice cream in each, and they are amazing. 8. Lastly, you should go on your birthday so you can spin the wheel. I don't care if you aren't trying to drink $4.45 beers on your birthday, it's a tradition. Roll-N-Roaster is a classic. Get in there before it's gone, or you'll regret it. read more

Growing up in Queen taking the trip to Roll-N-Roaster was a birthday tradition. You spin the wheel, get your Roll-N-Roaster coins and have an excuse to come back again (as if the food wasn't enough of an excuse). Now that I've moved away it's become a requirement to stop in. Their milkshakes are to DIE for. They're packed with ice cream but blended into a smooth and silky drink. You won't find fries like this anywhere else in Brooklyn. They're round crinkle cut fries that are the perfect ratio of crispy and salty. Make sure to get them with cheese!!! Their mozzarella sticks are gooey and have a cheese pull that stretches for miles. Every other side on the menu is fantastic so you really can't go wrong. Plus they give you a pretty large portion. The star of the show is the Roast Beef Sandwich. Like the fries you're gonna wanna ask for it with cheese. It feels like Roll-N-Roaster hasn't changed its interior since opening in the 1970s and I wouldn't want them to because that's part of the charm. I wish I had been around when they would roll out your food on skates. read more

Heard about this place forever and finally went, the vibes were cool but the food just felt like cafeteria food to me. My friend and I took a trip and this place is pretty deep in Brooklyn, wanted to do a comparison with Brennan and Carr and for me, both were kind of a let down. Also, I found this meal crazy expensive, everything total was just about $40. Root beer, Lemonade, roast beef, onion rings, fritters and tenders. The food: Roast Beef N Cheez with Onions- This was the main reason for the trip and while the place makes their own bread, I felt this sandwich fell kind of flat. The meat cheese and onions were OK, nothing to write home about. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=Y_iTTjKvV5hLy-880SZzlA&select=2Ioy1A4wNpMeEWKgSO2Ihw Onion Rings- These were good rings, prob the fav item of the day, they were crunchy and not oily. Golden Corn Fritters- Pretty standard, just tasted like canned corn with a thick batter. Feels more like something you give to kids. Chicken Tenders with Sweet and Sour- I didn't like these, the batter was weird and the chicken was dry, tough and pretty lifeless, the sauce tasted really cheap and didn't help at all, hard pass. Lemonade- This was actually excellent, I really liked the lemonade. read more

I haven't been to Roll-N-Roaster in years. I decided to go since I was in the area. I ordered the Orangeade for myself and the Lemonade for my nephew and niece. We had Cheese Fries, Fries, Pizza, Chicken Sandwich and a Burger. The pizza was overcooked and it didn't taste good. Everything else was good. I enjoyed the burger. It had bacon and BBQ sauce. The service was fine and the food didn't take long to be ready. It wasn't crowded and they played nice music. It was good to visit after all of these years. read more

Roll-N-Roaster - Lemonade, Orangeade, Cheese Fries, Fries, Pizza, Chicken Sandwich and Burger - American Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Food: This is an iconic roast beef sandwich restaurant in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn. The food is delicious, especially their roast beef sandwich and turkey sandwich. I would highly recommend trying their roast beef sandwich. The roast beef is moist and juicy. They add gravy to the sandwich which makes it even better. I think this place better than Brendan and Carr, another famous roast beef sandwich restaurant in Brooklyn. You can request to add raw or cooked onions to your sandwich as well as cheese. The turkey sandwich doesn't seem like anything special but is also very tasty and served with side of cranberry jelly. The turkey is moist and perfectly cooked. The place offers many other items including a fish sandwich, chicken tenders, mozzarella sticks, onion rings, fries, pizza, corn fritters, milkshakes, and other desserts. Service: The staff are really friendly and work efficiently to put together your order. Ambiance: This is a fast food style restaurant so you order your food at the counter and find your own table. There's no table service. There is plenty of seating in the restaurant and a few tables outside as well. Overall, I would highly recommend this spot! read more

This place SLAPSSSS!!! Was so hungry I forgot to take a photo of the AMAZING, delicious and JUICY roast beef sandwich with cheese (of course), cheese fries (OMG the shape of it, the crispiness, one of my fav fries ever), and their lemonade and ice tea is 100%. I love that everything tastes homemade, in house. Their bread is even made in house! Fancy condiments cost extra like honey mustard. Not for ketchup obviously. The thin personal pepperoni pizza is not the best you've ever had but if you're craving comfort food, it hits the spot! Friendly staff, cash or card accepted (same price for both). Line seems long but it goes by fast so know what you're gonna order. Love their system with the microphones, so you can hear your order # anywhere from the place. Chill, fast food vibe dining space. Neighborhood staple, one of a kind, unique, and delicious spot! FYI, have the best driver in your friend group drive there. Make sure they know how to park cuz the lot gets busy and tight! read more

This is a historic institution for locals in Brooklyn serving classic roast beef sandwiches. The space has a retro diner ambiance with a large parking lot that is packed. The service is quick deeming as a fast-food restaurant where many dine-in at. When you spend $40+, you also get a free Thin Cheese Pizza ($4.95 value). Between the two of us, we each got a Roast Beef n' Cheez ($8.95), Cheezburger ($7.45), Onion Rings ($5.75), Fries ($4.75), Iced Tea ($3.25), and Diet Coke ($2.95). First of all, make sure you eat the pizza first while it's still hot and melty. Once it got cold by the end of our meal, the cheese was hard and dough tasted like cardboard. Considering it's free, I'm not complaining; but eat it while it's hot! For the infamous roast beef roll, this was delicious with the cheez. Honestly, I am getting an extra cup of cheese to dip everything in next time. This was filling and the meat was tender and easy to eat. The fries are chip-like, which is fun to eat and great for cheez dipping while the onion rings are thick and crispy. Overall, I enjoyed this meal a lot and can see all the nostalgia it brings. read more

What in the world was this order!? I order the cheeseburger and wedge fries with cheese on the side. BOTH the fries and burger with so greasy you had to use a paper towel to blot the oil off.

Someone over there hates there job and it clearly shows. Don't take it out on your customers. The food quality was shocking and not up par. And yes I've been eating and order from here for YEARS. Absolutely unacceptable quality. read more

Roll N Roaster definitely feels frozen in time from its inception in the 70's, and people like it that way. I wonder if I had gone as a kid in the 90s it would have felt less retro but as a thirty something going in the 2020's I can appreciate the novelty of it since there are very few places like it in nyc. The speckled stained glass effect of the backlit menus behind the counter, the old tiles, and mustard colored booths feel straight out of a movie set. I don't eat red meat, so their signature item, the roast beef sandwich, was off limits to me. But I wanted to partake in Roll N Roaster tradition so I ordered a milkshake, onion rings, and some cheese fries. These are items I probably consume about once a year, and as a once a year treat, this place was decidedly fine. Not terrible and not amazing. I did not finish my food. Would I return? Absolutely not. But I don't think this place is for me. I was surprised to see the amount of people who looked like regulars, ordering chicken tenders and roast beef sandwiches like it was just another Thursday afternoon and not like the nostalgic novelty experience I was treating it as. Diners are a dying category in NY, but I'm happy that a place like this can still survive in Sheepshead Bay. This is where a whole sandwich can still be under eight dollars and where Brooklynites can experience a slice of Americana, the Brooklyn way. read more

Something is a miss when we ventured to this establishment. The vibe remains the same as ever with friendly and courteous staff. However we couldn't really say the same thing with the food. We had the cheeseburger and western Cheeseburger with onion rings and at first they were cooked well but the taste was overly salty. I like my food seasoned but they were too salty and almost inedible. Tried their fried pickles too and they were too soggy. And the bill came out to 36 bucks which is kinda steep. Oh well, maybe we'll try it again next time. read more

Roll-N-Roaster: A nostalgic eatery for those who identify as "Gen X". The faded yellow color scheme, the bolted-down cafeteria table-n-seat booths, and the impressively affordable prices for their menu items; It's really a safe-haven for those who want a bite to eat, but don't want to fall into the trap collecting people who become addicted to franchise-owned fast food. The menu is not enormous, but it's large enough where you *should* be able to find something that will tickle your fancy. Roast Beef sammie's, Grilled Chicken with Gravy Sammie, Smash Burgers, Fried Shrimp or Clam strips, and Chicken Tenders for the kiddo's - They offer a wide variety, but a small enough menu where you know the items are NOT being prepared 'freezer-to-microwave-to-plate'. Everything is freshly made to order. The man and I ordered a Roast Beef Sammie, Fries, New England Clam Chowder, Mozzarella Sticks, and a Smash Cheeseburger. The Roast Beef Sammie has an exceedingly large amount of Roast Beef, and it was absolutely sumptuous. The fries were more like thick potato chips, and they were very good; Just needed a little salt. Mozzarella Sticks were PERFECT. Stringy, delicious breading, yummy sauce to dip them in; A really nice item. The New England Clam Chowder was a little 'thin' - it could have been thicker. But the flavor was spot on - absolutely delicious. The only negative item: The Smash Cheeseburger. It was so burnt, I didn't taste the beef - There was no 'flavor' present at all. It was just crispy, burnt, 'I-don't-know-what' on a bun, with a little cheese. I took two or three bites, trying to find something appetizing in this mess-on-a-bun. Nothing. Overall, I loved Roll N Roaster. I loved the ambience, the decór, the menu, the unspoken "rules" of standing in the correct line to place an order; All of it. The only negative: The Smash Cheeseburger. Who ever made my Smash Cheeseburger must have forgotten that my patties were on the griddle. Definitely going to head back to Roll N Roaster - No question in my mind. read more

I been coming here as a teenager and the cheese fries are amazing!!!! The mozzarella sticks are great bit on the pricier side but very delicious. I honestly don't like their burgers here as the meat tends to be very dry and feels like it gets caught in your throat because of how dry it is. The roast beef is decent. I do wish their prices was a bit lower because $6 for cheese fries is a bit crazy because it's a small portion . read more

Very pleasantly surprised. The service was great. The food was delicious. Plenty of seating area. The restaurant was very clean-they even had a sink outside the bathrooms with staff continously visiting tables and cleaning them. They have a parking lot. The A/C was set to a good temperature. The sweet potato fries, the fries, the onion rings, the corn fritters were all delicious and NOT oily. The lemonade and orangeade were on point. Their chicken tenders are deliciously seasoned. Their roast beef is nice and thinly cut. Also, because of our order we were given a free thin crust pizza-it was good. I haven't been here in years but I was thrilled to see they are still consistent and they continue to thrive. read more

We love a nostalgic neighborhood spot!! Roll N' Roasters have been around for as long as I can remember. I remember when their Roast Beef sandwiches used to be under $5! While their prices have gone way up since, I still like to come here every once in a while. Speaking of, their Roast Beef Sandwiches are a MUST here + taste just the same as it always has! Definitely order some sides to pair with the meal - you really can't go wrong, all their sides are good! My personal favorite is the Sweet Potato Fries, which is an ample amount! Another MUST HAVE is their house-made Iced Tea or Lemonade to top off your meal. Love that they also throw in their (flatbread) pizza for $40+ orders - it's mediocre, but a nice snack. Tons of seating and the wait may be a while depending on if you order inside or online. Overall, Roll N' Roaster is a place you have to pay a visit to if you're in South Brooklyn! read more

Let me start by saying I don't eat roast beef. This is what their famous for, so I didn't have this specialty. I was there for a meeting. My partners had roast beef. I decided to go "safe" and get the waffle fries with cheese and chicken fingers. I paid for everyone's meal so there was also a free pizza. The pizza is pretty much a small size, But what's the other food it was enough. The chicken fingers are a smaller size and mine were hard fried. Not the soft kind of bite. I opted for barbecue sauce which was actually a name brand sauce which is pretty nice to see. The fries and the cheese sauce were disappointing. The sauce was very salty in the fries weren't that great. They will thin and kind of soft. The chicken also was salty on the outside. They were okay The pizza would be a great hit I believe for children. Especially it under $5 a pie they're a great budget option if you have children around. As for adults, Nah. A very thin crust with goopy cheese. Now for the aesthetics. Awesome. As soon as you walk in it takes you back into time. Looks very old like something from the '50s. And this isn't in a bad way. This is actually really cool. I like the sign that looks old school and even the decor looks like it hasn't been refreshed a lot. There's definitely ample seating but I know it gets really busy. People are pretty much in and out though. We stayed about an hour and no one bothered us to leave. Now to be fair, my friend had the roast beef and he said it was really good in fact he's the one who recommended this place. He got roast beef with a side of gravy. He pretty much finished two sandwiches. There was like three bites he couldn't finish. My other partner didn't talk a lot while eating which means he was really enjoying it. Another great feature this place has over a lot of other fast food restaurants is the fact that they cook to order. With that I order took a little bit longer than you would at a McDonald's or a chain of that nature. However it was well worth the wait because you know they were cooking it fresh and right on point. My friend told me I couldn't come here without getting orange aid. It was really good. It was a mix of fresh orange and fresh lemon. Like a orange lemonade. But it was really tasty. I appreciate the fact that you can taste real ingredients in that orange aid unlike when you go to fast food restaurants for everything tastes artificial. And last which probably should have been first is the price. I don't know how they keep the prices so low, but they are really fair for modern times and especially this economy. This is a really cool spot and a Brooklyn gem. I really hope they are able to maintain and survive another 54 years read more

Food was mediocre. Clam strips were fantastic, the only thing they (and everything else) are mising is salt. There is not a single speck of seasoning on any single thing. Clam strips are fried wonderfully, with salt they'd be 5/5, but without they're a 3.5. Fries aren't cooked long enough so instead of crispy and delicious they're a soggy, unsalted mess. The cheese sauce tastes gross, almost like it's off. The gravy on the roast beef is decent, but also missing any seasoning. The roast beef is tasteless, and they definitely gave me more well done, as there's barely any pink whatsoever. Seriously, you might be busy but that shouldn't stop you from salting/seasoning your food, and cooking the fries properly. I can wait an extra minute guys, it's okay. read more

Finally after decades of having the jingle stuck in my head I made it to the famous Roll-N-Roasters. This place feels like a time capsule. Walking into the restaurant it may as well have still been the 70s. Which is a great part of their charm. I loved the interior and vibe of this place. However it's the food that matters. As you can tell from my score I wasn't too impressed. I got the lemonade, roast beef sandwich with cheese, and cheese fries. I'm not someone that would normally eat roast beef sandwiches. Their menu looked great but I wanted their signature items. I will say the best thing was the cheese fries. I was genuinely surprised at how much I enjoyed them. They were thin and crispy. The cheese of course elevated it. The lemonade was good. Refreshing and sweet. The roast beef sandwich with cheese was just ok. All in all I paid $20 for my meal. So I will say it is pricey. If I could've gotten everything for at least $16 I'd be happier. I'm more than willing to come back here. I want to try their burgers. They also had other great options on the menu that I'd consider. However I'm probably one and done on the roast beef sandwich. read more

Was fishing near by off shore parkway so dropped in. The look of the place reminds of what places around Coney Island looked like30 plus years ago, and very well kept. The staff is super efficient, taking orders, cleaning tables, and keeping up the bathrooms. The food was good. I tried the Roast beef sandwich, fries with Cheez, reminded me of old cheez Weez but better and fresher. We also tried corn nuggets, and chocolate milk shake. We got a free box of thin crust pizza for spending more than $45! Which was really nice. The prices were great, at par with Mc Donald's, which makes this place a great group spot for families. They must own the place and land, can't stress enough how shocked I was at the prices for the quality. Highly recommend a visit read more

This was one of the magical places I remember frequenting in my childhood that I don't often go back to but have agreed to make a habit this summer of going to often. I got to enjoy this with some folks that are part of my adulthood crew and boy did it bring back memories. I used to come with my entire family and we'd order a few lemonades, fries, burgers, chicken strips, onion wrings and mozerrella sticks and share them with the table. I ordered the fries and wings and honey mustard. Boy was it all delicious and tastes just the same as I remember is from growing up in the early 90s coming here after going to the aquarium on the weekends! Two cool things that I don't think they had in the 90s: they sell merch that I'm looking forward to purchasing and they give free water bottles if they see you Wearing a safety helmet! The honey mustard takes fantastic and very naturally flavored. Ambiance: This is Brooklyn, hustle for your spot in line as usual. read more

A 1970s throwback in a part of Brooklyn not for tourists or transplants. Sheepshead is mostly known for its clam shacks and Russian fare, but Roll n roaster is an ode to a different time. I got the corn fritters and wings when here with a coworker and washed it all down with an orangeaide (like lemonade but with oranges, try it ) For any SoCal folks who may read this review, the vibe is similar to The Hat. They gave us so much food, we almost fell asleep immediately after eating and returning to work. Sauce served with wings was good as well. I was pleasantly surprised everything tasted great and the wings were flavorful and crispy. One day, I will order that Moet with my corn fritters for the vibes read more

Crispy and real white breast meat. -Cheezburger Meh: -Fries -- they're wavy and look like pickle chips. On their own, they're kinda meh, but cheez makes it slightly better. -Corn fritters If you needed any other reason to come here, the service is incredibly quick and they're super friendly. Just be careful with the clientele...Southern Brooklyn has that... hard Brooklyn charm. read more
