This place went from a sheepshead bay staple to barely edible. Told Eric the manager my chicken was like rubber. "Nothing I can do" was his response. Been coming here since the 90's. Last time I'll ever spend my money in this disgusting place read more

Roll-N-Roaster - Pizza burned to a crisp. What a disgrace this place has become - American Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Best place to get food in Brooklyn. Roll N Roaster never disappoints! The food is always great, and their cheese fries are hands-down better than McDonald's fries. As someone from Rockaway, it's absolutely worth stopping here for a bite instead of heading over to Howard Beach. Always delicious, always satisfying! read more

I'm so glad I've been able to try this place. My honey has been raving about this establishment for the few years that I've known him and he said it's just as good as he remembers from when he was a kid. Ordered three roast beef sandwiches with onions, two cheese fries, corn fritters, 3 chicken tenders and got the free pizza. Service was friendly and fast. read more

I've lived in Brooklyn all my life. I was so happy when they brought back their signature French fries. The service is fast and the restaurant is clean. It's always busy particularly on the weekends. The food is delicious particularly the chicken tenders, French fries and their gravy. Their sandwiches are awesome too. The roast beef with gravy is a must have. Of course you can't say no to their famous milkshakes. Sure they're expensive but it's worth the treat. If you're a tourist, you should come visit Roll n Roaster. It's the best! read more

We ordered a meal for $50.00. My husband received a roast beef sandwich that was raw. We spoke to the manager and asked if we can get a new sandwich well done. He said no. He said we can put the roast beef in a microwave or grill even though he ate some. We don't use a microwave so we asked for a refund. Manager said no. Do you prefer to have a food safety issue where people eat a part and then put it on the grill or microwave or refund us for $8.95. This is extremely unsafe for food preparation. read more

I hit up Brennan and Carr and Roll N Roaster on the same day to compare their roast beef sandwiches. I had a better dining experience at B&C, though I do think RNR has a slightly better sandwich. Both are Brooklyn institutions worth checking out. Came on a Sunday afternoon and tried the roast beef (medium) and pan dripped gravy, pickles, and fries. Everything was amazing, though I would skip the gravy next time. This place is like an Arby's on crack. They've also got a parking lot! read more

A Brooklyn staple! I have been going here since I was a kid. Everything you try here is delicious and prices are great. We spent $65 for dinner (there were 4 of us and we over indulged...) the cashier told us we got a free pizza for spending over $40! The pizza was good and cheesy, super thin crust. A nice touch. You obviously can't skip the cheese fries (and yes the OG fries are back). We got the cheese whiz roast beef and it was good. I wish i remembered to put onions in it. The corn fritters are always delicious. A little touch of sweetness to them. Wings are fried great and come with two sauces. read more

Loved this retro spot! Roll-N-Roaster is so cool. It's like stepping back in time. Nothing has changed, and I hope it stays that way. Prices are cheap, everything tastes good, and it's all about the vibes and nostalgia. They're best known for their roast beef sandwiches, orangeade, and cottage fries. We tried all these things! The roast beef with grilled onion is great. I'm not a huge fan of liquid cheese, but getting this on the side along with some gravy for dipping is the move. I chose lemonade instead of orangeade, but it was so good I had no regrets. You can get a bottle of Moët for $59, a glass of wine for $4.95, or a beer for $2.95. Come hungry and enjoy the retro atmosphere! read more

I finally made a trip to Roll-N-Roaster today and I have to say, I liked it better than Brennan and Carr's. For one, they focus on the freshness of their ingredients-- all their breads are made from scratch and baked daily without preservatives, their roast beef is roasted, trimmed, and sliced daily, and their gravy is made from pan drippings. I ordered the roast beef sandwich ($7.45) and the cottage fries with cheese ($4.95) and while it was a bit of a wait, my food arrived fresh and well packaged for the ride home. Although I did not order gravy on the side ($0.65) I did find that the sandwich itself was juicy enough to do without. The roast beef was really tender and the caramelized onions added the perfect sweetness. The housemade kaiser roll was also great too. Their cottage fries, while charmingly nostalgic, were a little soft and oily when I was expecting something crispier. Overall, I had a very pleasant experience and would come back to try their corn fritters and orangeade! read more

Stop reading and just come here...to the staff and owners...thank you! America! Im partial to the Roast Beef but everything is good! read more

Roll-N-Roaster has a varied menu, but their specialty du Madison is incredible roast beef sandwiches on delicious freshly baked rolls. Superb! They also offer French fries with or without cheese as well as corn on the cob and a number of other options for lunch or dinner but the roast beef sandwiches have been their staple for time immemorial. Besides soda, they also serve lemonade and their apple pie a la mode is almost literally the perfect ending to a wonderful meal in an informal setting close enough to walk through Sheepshead Bay with its' sophisticated stores and quaint marina. read more

I don't understand what the hype is all about. The food here reminded me of waterpark food...extremely oily and straight from frozen to fryer. We ordered a cheeseburger, NY strip steak, regular and cheesy fries, onion rings, chicken tenders and lemonade. We received a free 12inch pizza pie since we spent over $40. The chicken tenders had way too much breading, over fried and dried. The onion rings were amazing, and the cheeseburger was somewhat decent. The fries were too oily and soggy( you could tell the oil was not hot enough when they fried them.) The rest of the food was mediocre and not worth a second visit. read more

Roll & Roaster has been around for many years and its an institution that people come to from all over. Its big and they do have a parking lot which is a big plus especially on Emmons ave. I love their roast beef sandwiche which is what they're famous for. You can get it with cheese or without. Their cheesy fries used to be good but now they changed them and they are just not the same so I wouldn't get them instead try the clam strips. read more

Everyone seems to know this place. The pricing is fair and dishes taste just-made. I'm going to spread the word among relatives about this spot with good food and good service. Personnel show exceptional pleasantness. This spot provided satisfactory service throughout. read more

Legendary spot. The roast beef and cheez is what you come here and you wont be disappointed. As old school as you can get but there is a reason it has been there all these years. They do it right. Will be back. read more

I'm from Brooklyn and had Roll-N-Roaster for the first time in 28 years a few weeks ago. Maybe it's cause I didn't grow up in the area but I was genuinely ashamed. That being said, after finally having it, I'm proud to say it wasn't bad! When my friend said she was getting chicken wings, I sort of looked at her like she was crazy. Chicken wings from fast food spots that aren't chicken focused aren't exactly super trustworthy in my opinion. We got a lb of those to share, fries with cheese sauce on the side, sweet potato fries, an ice cream float and a chocolate milkshake. The fries were okay, nothing crazy to rave about. The chicken wings thoughhhhhhhh. So good. They tasted exactly like the chicken wings from the bowling alley on the Fort Hamilton Army base, lol, very nostalgic for me. Crispy, flavorful, just a 10/10. read more

Every element of the dining experience stands out positively. The restaurant is beyond what compliments can cover. The workers here provide outstanding attention. The flavor profiles were excellent! This spot delivers unmatched cost efficiency. read more

I took a stroll down memory lane and decided to pop into Rollin Roast, a place filled with fond memories, especially those late-night stops after clubbing before heading home. I haven't been in Brooklyn in about 25 years maybe more and I was delighted to find that the Rollin Roast was still in business and walked in.... OMG atmosphere hasn't changed at all, which made my visit even more special. The food was fantastic, and the prices were unbeatable. I went for my usual roast beef and cheesy fries,(I asked the guy if he could double dip the roast beef in the juice he says I'll quadruple it for you and smiled) found a cozy corner to sit in, and enjoyed watching the hustle and bustle as people came and went. The staff were just as attentive as I remembered. While chatting with an employee , I learned they sell T-shirts and sweatshirts, so I couldn't resist picking up a couple. I even gifted one to a friend from the neighborhood. We drove quite a distance to get here, but it was absolutely worth it! A landmark. read more

They have been a staple in Sheepshead Bay Brooklyn for over 52 years. It's clean, good prices, there is no wait service although the counter people are always friendly and efficient. There good for groups, they emphasis on cleaning. The food is "ok" not what it use to be. Usually eat very healthy and decided to make an exception because I was looking for a quick dinner. I had the roast beef sandwich and sweet potato fries. The fries were the best part. I would say they are good for a quick, inexpensive meal where you know the food will be safe to eat. They really need to step it up to compete with all the places popping up in Sheepshead bay. read more

Great service, great food, & plenty of seating. Roll n roaster is a cheesy and delicious fast food style restaurant. My personal favorites is the cheeseburger, chicken fingers, corn fritters, & fresh brewed iced tea. If you spend a certain amount of money (I don't remember how much), you get a free pizza!!! This place is very big inside as well so there is plenty of seating for people. There is a parking lot as well and street parking. If you love fast food and obviously cheese I definitely recommend this place. Roll n roaster is known for their roast beef and cheese sandwich, but I don't like roast beef, but my friends say it's amazing!!! Also, for your birthday the staff allows you to spin a wheel to win a prize!!! If you're in Brooklyn, it'll be worth it to stop at roll n roaster! read more

Been going here for more than 40 years and it's still the best quality fast food you will have out there. The chicken tenders haven't changed in all these years and they're phenomenal and their french fries with cheese and mozzarella sticks are delicious as well!

This is Sheepshead Bay Brooklyn establishment has been in existence for 53 years, they do things right. As a kid growing up in the 80s the 4 AM commercial that I used to see is now a restaurant that I frequent in the 2020's. My experience has always been positive with their roast beef with cheez, roast beef is always rare and has a great flavor. As also had a good experience with the shrimp cup, sweet potato fries. It's definitely a fast food icon but it's not so fast just like their ad says way back in the 80s. They call your number and you pick it up. Ask for condiments at the counter the pump disappeared for safety. Parking is tight but I always seen to get a spot off season, different in the summer. Glad we live nearby to enjoy this timeless Brooklyn spot. read more

I heard good things about this place but it was very underwhelming. I got the roast beef sandwich. It looked kinda sad. It was 9 dollars and it was just a bun and a few pieces of roast beef. It was pretty flavorless and boring. Not a lot either so it wasn't very filling. The fries were pretty good but not special either read more

First timer though I have known about Roll-N-Roaster for years. I spontaneously decided to check out Roll-N-Roaster tonight (March 16) and have no regrets. I came for one menu item and one menu item only -- the corn fritters. Based on the photos, the corn fritters looked identical to the corn fritters I remembered eating as a kid at Goodness Steak Restaurant on the Junction. And one bite tonight filled me with so much nostalgia. The corn fritters oozed with cream corn and it's so, so good. The four star rating is solely for the corn fritters I also ordered fries, which weren't anything special and needed salt. I'd skip and that says a lot because I LOVE fries. The onion rings are nicely crisped and would substitute the fries with this. Nothing fancy and very much feels like you've walked into a time machine but that gives RnR its charm. Prices are reasonable and there is plenty of seating. There is a small parking lot that has a one hour time limit. read more

One feeling: nostalgia. Stepping into Roll-N-Roaster is a step back in time - in a good way! My husband and I stopped by on a weeknight to find the spot bustling with customers. Reminiscent of an old school fast food joint, you look at the mega board menu, order at the counter and watch the line cooks work their magic. Prices are very reasonable. Food is as expected. It's fast food - roast beef sandwiches, fries, chicken fingers. All served fresh and hot. Service was friendly and pretty quick. The restaurant was clean and the customers were all friendly. We will definitely be back if we're looking for a quick casual bite. They're open late too, which is a plus. read more

A Brooklyn (Sheepshead Bay) destination for over 50 years. Delicious, hot roast beef sandwiches and home made, fresh apple pie. Pizza, too. Two large dining rooms. Place your order and pay at the counter, then wait for your number to be called. Simple system, reasonable prices, comfortable and roomy surroundings. Limited parking in their lot. Bathrooms always available. read more

Came here on a weekday afternoon. There was a line with a few people but it moved pretty quick. The service was great. It's a casual restaurant. You order then sit wherever you want. Now onto the food. I love the roast beef and cheese sandwich! It's sooo good! The roll is amazing! So soft and fresh and pairs perfectly with the roast beef! The fried foods here are great too! Love the chicken wings! So perfectly seasoned and so crispy! You also get a free pizza when you order 45$ or more! My kids love this because it's so thin! Another bonus is there is a parking lot! Not a huge one, but better than none! There's also street parking! Will def be back! Thanks!! read more
