The Cajun nachos!!! Omg. Don't expect anything like a nacho you've had before. Made with house made potato chips and so much blue cheese. I wanted to keep eating them, but alas, the feast of chips eventually ran out. The lobster roll was also delicious, loaded with lobster meat, a lightly herbaceous mayo, and served with a cup of melted butter for dipping. So delicious! read more

I really enjoyed my visit here. I started with the oysters. They were a good size and were very fresh. I had the fried grouper sandwich for my meal. I loved it. It was cooked perfectly and the special house made sauces were the best way to bring out even more flavor. My fiancé had the roux burger which he enjoyed as well. We will definitely visit again! read more

As usual the food and service were great. Wonderful ambiance with some nice sidewalk seating for people watching. Need to prepare for expensive public parking and not much of it during prime times. read more

Pretty good food. I got the roux bleu burger with fries. Not too bad. Good service. Good location to sit out and eat if you want to be in the middle of the action and feel the energy of Roswell read more

I stopped in while visiting from out of town after seeing the one dollar oyster promotion during weekdays. Sitting outside was absolutely delightful. My server was also very pleasant and the oysters were nice and fresh. I ordered a cup of gumbo to go, which was alright. Overall, I had a very nice experience. read more

Stopped in here for a quick bite. Got the lovely burger and chicken sandwich. I thought that the sweet potato fries were especially yummy, there was some sort of cinnamon sugar on them! The only thing is the service was a bit slow, but it was super well worth it! I thought this was a cute little spot and I will definitely be back. Get the chicken sandwich! read more

For some reason, I was expecting this place to be more upscale. It wasn't. It was more of a bar/(sports)bar complete with large screen tv with sports on them. And, it was very loud. Taking my 86 year old father there wasn't a good idea because he couldn't hear the server or conversation at the table so he just watched the games throughout the meal. But, if you are looking for a neighborhood sports bar with lots of friend bar food and a Cajun twist - this is the place for you. It was pretty small, so had an intimate feel, and there were tables for two out front next to the sidewalk, so good for people watching, but I didn't see too many healthy options on the menu. I had the fried green tomatoes, which were extraordinarily good. The dish only comes with three tomatoes, so we ended up ordering a second one since all three of us wanted more. Those were a real treat. My father ordered the spinach cheese dip starter, which was generous, but not very special, except that it came with a few crackers and pita bread for dipping, instead of the typical tortilla chips. I'd didn 't much care for it even though I usually scarf down cheese dip and tortilla chips. For my main, I got the mussels. While I thought they were going to be the typical French styled mussels in white wine and lemon garlic sauce, they definitely had a spicy Cajun kick with a tomato base added to the wine, lemon and garlic. It had the kind of kick that required a sweet drink to cool my mouth down. It was different from what I was expected, but very tasty. Good service, but LOUD! read more

This restaurant is cute, great ambiance, and service at the bar was great. We were here during Alive in Roswell, so they were busy. We ordered a drink and the fried grouper. The fish was delicious, I just wish we got a little more for $15. We're planning on coming back for their oyster happy hour. read more

This place is my absolute fav!! We came here for a drink and $1 oyster happy hour about 4 months ago.....now this is our place.

If you are trying to decide between Roux on Canton or 1920 Tavern.........DO NOT GO TO 1920!!! I repeat DO NOT GO TO 1920!! Roux on Canton has great food trust me!! Thanks guys read more

Coming to Roswell is always a wonderful occasion for us. Roux is one of many we had not tried and were welcome they had a seat for us without reservations. We started out with a couple of IPA, and they have some good selections on tap. Also started out with some oysters, which was another sort of seasonal item I had not had all summer. Yummy. Our host was awesome! For dinner I enjoyed the jambalaya for the second time in Roswell, and it was just what I needed. If you didn't have a reservation, then you aren't settling when you come to Roux. read more

Cute little place in Historic Roswell. They have indoor and limited outdoor seating and a good size bar. All the outdoor seating was taken so we sat inside at a highboy table. I'm a pescatarian and they have a good amount of seafood options. The waitress said the bean burger was made in house so I decided to give it a try. It was a pretty good choice but if I return I will try the fish. The fries were good (yes you can mess up fries). The margarita was amazinggg, which was expected because half the restaurant seemed to be the bar! Service was good- the waitress was very attentive! read more

We came here for a good meal and we definitely got one!! They even had trivia night which was fun! We started with an appetizers of hush puppies. They were pretty standard. Our meals were certainly above standard though. I ordered the skirt steak with roasted sweet potatoes and brussel sprouts. The steak was cooked to perfection and the sides were delicious. I was extremely impressed!! My husband ordered the shrimp po boy with sweet potato fries which he really enjoyed. In fact, everyone at our table loved their meal. For dessert, we ordered the beignets which were huge and hot!! I would highly recommend this restaurant and you can even make a reservation for faster seating. We are looking forward to coming back soon! read more

We walked in mid-afternoon on a Sunday to grab a quick drink. We decided to get food and its a good thing we did. We weren't there to eat, but each got soup - chicken tortilla and gumbo. Great portions for cups of soups, great flavors, filled us up. it was perfect. Service was cheerful and attentive. Atmosphere was upbeat, a good afternoon crowd. And they had the basketball game on. Really good experience, will return & recommend! read more

We happened upon this place when looking for a trip in town to meet up with family including a toddler. Had no idea what to expect but saw the $1 oysters on Sundays and that's all we needed to see! But seeing they cook their beef in tallow was a superb point as well! We had a chef in tow with us who also critiqued the food. Appetizers: chargrilled oysters. Not a hit. Wouldn't order again. 3 for 12 and they lacked flavor or punch. Just "aight". A dozen Raw Oysters... we ended up ordering 2 dozen they were DELICIOUS and fat! So good! Meals: Deviled Eggs very good. Simple eggs. Gumbo: FIRE SO GOOD IT WAS PASSED AROUND THE TABLE! Shrimp and grits: he's a shrimp and grits addict and is a tough critic and these were AMAZING! FULL of flavor! Lobster roll: she devoured it so fast we couldn't even ask about it Fried green tomatoes: again good and passed around the table. The pimento cheese is heavy so make sure you're a fan of that. Steak sandwich: very very good! I would order this again. Bread was perfectly toasted, steak perfectly done in little bites, right amount of cheese to beef and peppers and onions. Solid steak sandwich. Came with curly fries which were PHENOMENAL. We also had the beignets for desert and they are HUGE! Be ready for POUNDS OF powdered sugar on top. They were very good but are missing a dipping sauce which would definitely take them next level and being ordered at every table. Carmel sauce or chocolate sauce would be perfection. We had a great experience. Low lighting, casual place, everyone was comfortable and it's in a beautiful little location with lots of other options to the sides of it. The food was a hit and we will go back when we are in town. read more

The food was good. We sat at the bar. The grouper was perfectly cooked. Parking is paid on the street. The deviled eggs were a great way to start the meal and the pimento cheese fritters. I really like the pita chips as well. read more

Roux is one of our favorite places to eat in Roswell. I usually get the fish tacos which are amazing. This time I tried the lobster roll which was delicious. One of my daughters loves the shrimp and grits and the other always gets the Gouda burger. My husband ordered shrimp and grits this time but usually gets jambalaya. Their pimento cheese balls and fried pickles always are great hits to start the meal off. The restaurant is small but doesn't feel cramped. The waitstaff is always friendly and attentive which is why this place is always our comfort go to. read more

Came here for a birthday dinner. The restaurant was clean and our server was very friendly. I ordered the shrimp and grits while my wife ordered the shrimp Po Boy. While the food was good, we've had better Cajun. My shrimp and grits had a lot of bell peppers on the top which I'm not use to. My wife liked her Po boy but thought it could use a few more shrimp. Is this restaurant worth a visit? A definite yes. read more

I finally got the chance to walk down to Roux! We decided to take advantage of their daily Happy Hour at went at 4pm. We enjoyed the $1 each Oysters and the fried Grouper Fingers at their outside tables. Both were great paired with a yummy Sauvignon blanc. Loved their outside seating. The waitress was so nice and very attentive. So glad we finally got the chance to stop by. I can't wait to come back and try some other things. read more

This was my first visit to Roux on Canton Street in Historic Roswell. We decided to celebrate a family birthday dinner here, and we were very pleasantly surprised. First, our server Jonathan was amazing. He was super attentive and even anticipated most of our needs. He knew the entire menu very well and gave great recommendations. The food was great. Everything tasted fresh and flavorful. The hot items came out of the kitchen quickly and were smoking hot. We had to wait a second for some of the items to cool down before eating. We shared a number of appetizers, including the pimento cheese fritters, lemon pepper wings, the dip, and the warm pretzel with cheese and mustard dipping sauces. The pimento fritters, wings and pretzel were my favorites. We each ordered a different entree and shared some. I had the steak with mac and cheese as a side. The steak was flavorful and well seasoned. The mac and cheese was creamy. Other members of the family ordered the salmon, chicken tortilla soup, big chicken sandwich, buffalo chicken tacos, and spring salad with chicken. Being that we were celebrating a birthday, Jonathan offered us the birthday beignets for dessert. While they were good, they were not the best I've had at other restaurants in this city. Based upon the great service provided by Jonathan combined with the taste and quality of the food, we will definitely be back - probably sometime soon. Cheers read more

Stopped here after picking up family from airport. Seated promptly with waters for the table. Wife and I got the Cuban which was good but was lacking the excellence that we are used to in Tampa. Son got Shrimp Po Boy that was very tasty and our daughter-in-law enjoyed her salad. Great atmosphere with outside seating available. Would return here again. read more

Our server was attentive and friendly. We shared the cold peel & eat shrimp...great seasoning! My husband has the grouper sandwich and said it was very good. I had the chicken pasta. It was good but maybe had a bit too much oil in the sauce. The portion was huge...plenty for tomorrow's lunch! read more

Food is amazing and very well priced. The waitstaff aren't that great though. Nice front patio with street view. read more

Well, we got off to a shaky start at Roux on Canton, but eventually recovered for an overall, solid four-star experience. Here's the scoop... We first wanted to try the daily drink special listed on the sign, but it was sold out. Next we asked about the frozen drink special from the menu, but was told their machine was broken. These things happen, I suppose... Here's what we settled upon and LOVED! Appetizers: Dozen oysters (lemon, cocktail sauce, crackers) and fried pickles/okra Entree: sweet potato tacos with fries Drinks: iced tea (my fav!), Moscow mule and Bloody Mary (spicy!) Dessert: beignets topped with powdered sugar It turned out to be a nice meal! Note: we dined inside, but there is also outdoor patio seating. Your pups are welcome outside on a leash - it's quite a sweet sight. read more

What a great place! A beautiful night sitting outside. Enjoying downtown Roswell. Happy Hour - $1 oysters in the half shell - so good! Gulf shrimp basket so yummy! Definitely one of our favorites places to eat . read more

Some things were done okay - but nothing was truly well done. Im also not fully convinced that this is a "creole" restaurant ... they have some creole food on the menu, but it's more bar food in my opinion ... i mean, they serve tacos ... Nah. My gumbo, although seasoned well, didn't remind me of a gumbo at all. It was mainly roux and hardly any vegetables or rice. I kept saying I was eating "mainly roux" lol. The hush puppies were super greasy and dry at the same time. Fries were kinda cold when we got them, and the slaw was super bland. The shrimp, hardly had any breading (which worked in my favor cuz I prefer less breading) - but all in all, as they say on the tv cooking shows "the taste was there". Hubby had the chicken wrap and salad with creamy balsamic vinaigrette and that was okay also. We only had water to drink, and the water tasted a bit funky to me. Total was $47 before tip. Service was fast and friendly. All in all, a solid 3 stars, but can't see myself coming back here. read more

Bella and Izzy were sweet and the drinks were great; I would only return for a drink. The food was just okay- nothing amazing. The muscles were delicious, but the steak and risotto were such a disappointment! Lobster risotto tasted frozen- I was shocked with the dryness and blandness of the dish! The steak I got in replacement of the lobster risotto had soooo much salt, I just could not eat it... I took it to go for our pup at home. Park at the city hall- it's free and just a 5-7 minute walk. Make a reservation! Drinks are great, food not so good- go elsewhere; it's not worth the money. read more

Really enjoyed our first visit to Roux on Canton. It was a special day for us; today was my Dad's 92nd birthday. We split a dozen oysters on the half shell. They were really cold & fresh and quite large. Thoroughly enjoyed them. For our meal Dad had gumbo and I had fried shrimp, slaw, fried and hush puppies. It was all excellent!! Our server was attentive despite having a party of 10 in addition to us. Kind of a hole-in-the-wall vibe, but that was on purpose. We'll be back again!! read more

Came to Roux on Canton around 5:30 on a Saturday. Jonathan was our server and he was great. Fast, attentive, informative and polite. We ordered two drinks; flower child and the margarita, an appetizer; fried jalapeños and pickles, two entrees; the big chicken and the gumbo. All dishes were very fresh and delicious. The drinks were also good and strong, we only needed one. The establishment is small on the inside but it also has outside seating. Clean, well kept with a vintage vibe. Would definitely come back! read more

Best food on Canton street. The owners and entire staff make you feel welcomed and remembered. Couldn't recommend more! 11/10***

I had the raw oyster that were absolutely delicious and I had the boiled shrimp. I'm from NOLA and this is about as closes to the food there. Service was incredible and I love the way it's like a little hole in the wall down in the French Quarter. You won't be disappointed I promise you. read more

Had an amazing dinner here today. We were a large party, but we got seated right away. Our server was the best. Annalise, was so incredibly attentive!!

Excellent apps and drinks. Can't wait to go back. Chargrilled oysters and the Hurrouxcane are a must! The outdoor dining is preferred.

Love this place! Just finished up some morning shopping and was near the Trendy Historic Downtown Roswell, Canton Street area. So many cool places to eat and enjoy a drink most places have side walk seating for those nice days. The appetizers were both amazing and delicious. Devil eggs had a touch of relish which gave a nice sweet finish. And the oysters definitely lived up to their reputation. Very fresh. The entire team at the Roux is so cool. Very casual atmosphere with warm smiles and friendly hello's. From the hostess to the server (which was awesome) to the food runner and the bartender. All, always asked if everything was good and could they get you any thing else. Excellent! My lobster roll with the red beans and rice was absolutely delicious. Just loved it. Fresh, seasoned perfectly and so tasty. The cocktails were on the mark. Blended nicely and delicious. Kudos to the bartender. Just a wonderful experience on a perfect summer afternoon. Thank you Roux. You're doing everything right! read more

Great food, good beer and nice ambiance. This was our first time at Roux and we had a really good time. The Po Boy was really nice especially with their Rouxinator.
