I highly recommend Roosters! We were visiting our son and were looking for something more than typical Mexican food, so our son suggested Roosters. They offer Latin America food with burritos, tacos and tequila. The offer inside and outside seating and luckily we didn't have to wait on a Thursday night. I was excited to see jerk chicken on the menu, but decided instead to split the Boss Hog with my husband. The Boss Hog is a huge burrito that contains slow cooked pork, black beans, and cheese and is topped with pickled jalapeños, ranchero sauce and chipotle cream. It was really good, and splitting it was plenty for me. I also ordered a side of sweet plaintains which are always my favorite. I was glad to see them on the menu. When we got the check, it was cool because they brought it in a book. Yes, an actual book that you can read. People write notes on the pages which adds to the fun.

Before we stumbled upon this place I had no clue they were featured on Guy Fieri's Food Network show for their surf n turf burrito. I can certainly see why they were featured. I really enjoyed my jerk chicken nachos. Never thought I'd see jerk chicken on nachos, but my tastebuds are in love with it. I'll definitely try it again.

This was so good! I was obsessed with their salad. It had pickled onions, mango, cheese, and the dressing was so good. All my favorite things!

So there is an identity crisis going on with this restaurant. At first, I thought with the name "Rooster's" that it's a chicken joint. Nope. They branded themselves at Latin America restaurant. However, they serve some Jamaican/Caribbean flavors like Jerk chicken (that is not Latin food). They also serve Cuban Sandwich (Cuban, Dominicans, Puerto Rican has Spanish and African heritage, but identify more Caribbean than Latin American. Latin American is more mainland than island. I had the Paleo Plate with the choice of meats. That was definitely a plate with an identity crisis. I had the Jerk Chicken (Caribbean), and Al Pastor (Mexican with Lebanese flavor) serve with chimichurri (Brazillian not LatinX). This usually comes with one choice of meats. I was charge $14 for Jerk Chicken and another $14 for Al Pastor. Paleo w/ Choice of Meat Grilled Vegetables, Jalapeño Cabbage Slaw, Avocado, Citrus Pickled Red Onions & Chimichurri Mahi Mahi 17 Shrimp 16 Steak 16. Barbacoa 14 Pork 13 Al Pastor 14 Chorizo 13 Chicken 14 Jerk Chicken 14 Veggies 13 Mainly this place a Mexican restaurant that wants to be something else. There is no Peruvian rotisserie chicken. No pupusas. No Arepa. Basically it's a Mexican/Jamaican restaurant. Interior feels more like a Mexican restaurant. Service was okay. I had to ask server several times for a refill my soda and they weren't that busy.

I've been wanting to try this place out for months after seeing its raving review on triple D. Service was fast and friendly although our waitress never asked if we were pleased or not. The water tasted normal which is always nice. We ordered chips and salsa. The salsa wasn't spicy at all, just tasted like Smokey tomatoes and I thought lacked flavor, chips were also very thick but tasted good after we added salt. I was a little upset that I had to pay 3.50 for chips and salsa when there is free salsa at the hot sauce bar. I ordered jerk chicken tacos with plantains and my gf ordered carnitas tacos with beans and rice. The fresh pressed blue corn tortillas were great. My plantains were good but lacked salt and the way they were cut the center wasn't cooked all the way, kinda hard and gritty. Also my jerk chicken seemed like it was missing the jerk seasoning, the chicken itself tasted somewhat bland. Overall it was a good taco but I was expecting way better. The carnitas were amazing tho. The jalapeño slaw was fresh with the right amount of spice. The beans and rice were just ok, again not a lot of flavor just basic. I tried the mango hot sauce which was very sweet but no spice, I did enjoy it. But the Caribbean habanero hot sauce had zero heat it was like a flavorless cold soup. We had leftovers but ended up not taking them which I would assume the waitress would ask if everything was good but didn't. For all the hype I was very let down, it was good but I was expecting much better. I probably would go again because maybe they just had an off day. It was really busy when we first arrived and slowed way down by the time we left. Presentation of the dish and ambiance were very nice.

Mardi Gras in Mobile and my wife and I needed a place to get a mid-afternoon snack in between parades. Tucked into a former clothing store, Roosters has a cool old-time Mobile ambiance. Several tables for sidewalk seating. Lots of servers and staff that make sure you're taken care of. The menu is eclectic Latin/Mexican. It's not the kind of place that gives you a free setup of chips and salsa. The free salsa bar has plenty of choices for doctoring your menu selections. We had the jerk chicken nachos. The basket had copious amounts of white queso covered chips. The jerk chicken was grilled chunks of chicken with some good flavor and just a little spice. The only knock on our snack was that the chunks of chicken were not as plentiful as hoped. Even so, this a go to spot when we're in Mobile.

Love this place it is a must! My Al Pastor was soooo good! This pictures shows proof. Chips and queso are a must here with any meal. Service was excellent also. Our ticket came out in a book which was so cute! Definitely need to try this place.

True authentic Mexican tacos being served here. These tacos are over stuffed with protein and very fresh toppings. The salsa bar is a nice touch. This place is conveniently located in downtown Mobile. I was promptly greeted when I walked in and seated. My server was very friendly.

Back in November, my wife and I went to see Queensrÿche at Soul Kitchen in Downtown Mobile, but arrived downtown early to get something to eat. After finding some good parking, we made our way toward the venue, and sitting outside Roosters next door to Soul Kitchen were members of the band, who were waiting for their food at a table. We figured if the food was good enough for the band, it was good enough for us. So we left the band to their devices and headed inside to get something to eat. We were pleasantly greeted and seated immediately in an area that was decorative, comfortable and quiet enough for a great conversation. We were pretty excited about the weekend ahead of us, and we discussed it at length. The waitress came and took our order. My wife decided on the nachos, and I went with the El Toro burrito. Now, I've lived in Mobile for ten years, and I've known of this place, but never tried it. And what a mistake that was. When our food arrived I couldn't believe how good it looked, smelled great, and I couldn't wait to try this fantastic looking burrito that was placed in front of me. And when I did, WOW! That had some of the freshest taste I'd had in a burrito! The cilantro was prominent and it really popped the flavor of the brisket, which was smoky and delicious in its own right. I could say I was pleased with it, but that would be an understatement. My wife seemed equally pleased with her nachos, which she called "really good". It was kind of a whirlwind dinner, as we had to go and claim a really good spot in line for the show. I'm actually looking forward to going there again and trying more of their menu in the future.

Had a late lunch/early dinner with my wife on 02/18/23. The Torta De Carnitas was 2 stars. The El Toro Burrito was 3 or 3 1/2 stars. We were seated quickly. Our waitress was nice. However, I should have had an option for a side of either the kettle chips or jalapeño slaw. I was not given a choice and received the chips. The food came out hot. The ambiance was nice. My wife especially liked how we received our bill in a book.

Love to grab Roosters for lunch during the work day. It's a decently sized restaurant and typically there is never a wait unless you are with a larger group. The staff is always super nice and food comes out quickly. One of my favorite burritos I've ever had is the Boss Hog! It is delicious. I've also tried some of their tacos and they were good! My favorite part is your check comes in a book :) Will definitely return to Roosters!
