Went with my lovely wife and I had a $30 Clipp certificate. No one in the place and it's tucked back in a parking lot strip mall, so it's easy to miss. They have fried chicken strips and smash burgers. Spacious seating area and very clean inside. Lady who took our food order was very pleasant. I had to spend $30 so I got the 3 piece chicken finger platter which came with crinkle cut fries, coleslaw , Texas toast, and a soft drink. I also got the 3 piece mozzarella bricks, and the corn ribs. That was a lot of food. I will say all the food has a unique taste to it. It is Halal, which I never had before this visit. I liked it, but it took a few bites to acclimate myself to these new tastes. The chicken pieces were pretty big. I really don't think I could have eaten a 6 piece in one sitting. The mozzarella bricks were huge too. I ate two. Thankfully, my wife had one too. They came with lots of fries, which had more pepper than salt on them. Again, good, but different. The coleslaw was small but that's okay. The corn ribs were really good, and I got like 12 of them. Spicy, but not hot spicy. Overall, I liked the place. Another person came in while we were there. I didn't stalk her to see what she was eating. Would I go back? Yes. Well, I sort of have to, because I bought two of those Clipp certificates where you spend $15, but get $30 food. That's a great deal, but I'm sure they are trying to grow the business, and honestly, I would never have thought of this place if I didn't see it on Clipp. If this place doesn't survive, it will be because of its location rather than the quality or quantity of food served. read more

Rude Rooster - Chicken strips, fries, Texas toast, coleslaw, corn ribs, mozzarella bricks and a soft drink. Really good. - Burgers Near Me - Lombard, Illinois

We got this for Ramadan Not good food Chicken sandwich was fresh but was either missing something or wasn't good Tenders are ok Good service Inside is unique and nice The food is not good though don't recommend Something wrong with coleslaw read more

LOVED!! The food was amazing. Chicken tenders were deliciously juicy yet had that wonderful crispy and crunchy outside. We got them in the Medium heat.. and they were definitely on the spicy side! Our 3 piece mozzarella sticks were so cheesy and so warm! Got those in the mild and it was a little less spicy than the Medium but still had a beautiful touch of heat. And we also got the Classic Smash Burger.. it was amazing! So delicious and flavorful, the rude sauce was sooooo good! It was a little spicy and sweet! Fries had a really nice crisp and great seasoning. The service was quick, waited less than 15 minutes for our food to come out and it was FRESHHH!! The staff here were very attentive and sweet, the worker here even gave us a free beverage on the house. The atmosphere is very modern and cozy, definitely recommend giving it a try! read more

This restaurant has a delicious menu. I tried the honey butter chicken that was mouthwatering and the sloppy fries that has a layer of Mac n cheese and I choose to add chicken. It was my favorite! The restaurant has comfortable searing and tvs around to watch games. Very clean and the staff was friendly. Definitely recommend read more

Rude Rooster - Burgers Near Me - Lombard, Illinois

This was our first time coming here. We got the Nashville sando combo which comes with a fry and a drink. Michelle just got the sandwich only. The sandwich was very good. The chicken was very juicy and tender. I did have one spot on one of the tenders that was kinda hard but no big deal we got the medium heat, which was just right a little spicy, but not overwhelming. We got the corn ribs, which was flavored really good. We got a side of the rude sauce and use that for the corn and fries. The only downside about this restaurant is the parking. The parking lot is shared by multiple restaurants and a apartment complex next-door. We could not find a parking spot so I actually parked across the street at the Medical building and walked across. The restaurant was very clean and the service was really quick. I would definitely come back and eat here if I was in the area. read more

Food was delicious! Portions are perfect, and they definitely don't skip out on the fires lol read more

My husband and I have been wanting to try Rude Rooster since they opened and finally made it. We each ordered the 3 piece chicken tenders combo and an order of cheese bricks. The cheese bricks are homemade and the breading is so light and crispy and the cheese is one of the best mozzarella I've tasted. The chicken tenders breading was light and crispy and the chicken was moist and tender. They are very generous size. Huge order of fries. Coleslaw was cold crisp and delicious. Love the rude sauce. Like the vibe of the restaurant. Tables and chairs, very comfortable. The decor gave an urban feeling and welcoming. Service was great. Owner came out and talked with us. They also have smash burgers which we are going to be back to try. read more

Rude Rooster - Located behind the coffee shop MOTW on Main Street and Maple. - Burgers Near Me - Lombard, Illinois

I've been meaning to try Rude Rooster and finally got around to it. The parking lot is narrow and tight, with one entry lane and one exit lane, so keep that in mind if you come at a busy time. It's in the same strip mall as Kebab Bey and MOTW. The interior of Rude Rooster is fairly big and looks decent. I like how they have a huge menu posted right up on the wall before you reach the ordering counter, so you don't have to look up and behind the counter. Their menu is similar to other hot chicken places, with tenders, fries, sandos, etc. I ordered a 3-tender combo with mild heat level. It included fries, toast, coleslaw, and Rude sauce. The tenders were generous in size, but a bit on the chewy/tough side. The fries had a very tasty seasoning. The toast was decent, and the coleslaw was tasty. The Rude sauce had some kick to it; definitely not as sugary as the orange sauce at other chicken places. I will say, too, that the mild version at Rude Rooster has a little more kick than the mild version at other chicken places. Overall, it was an enjoyable meal. Not the best chicken I've had, but not bad. Pricing was on par with other chicken places and service was not rude. read more

Rude Rooster - Burgers Near Me - Lombard, Illinois

Rude Rooster in Lombard is a great new spot for Nashville-style chicken, smash burgers, and southern sides. I really loved the corn riblets and the chicken wrap. The food is halal and made fresh, which makes it an easy choice. The only downside is that the parking lot is small and shared with an apartment/condo complex, so it can feel a little unclear whether you'll be towed. Otherwise, the service is friendly and the atmosphere is sports-trendy, clean, and I left already planning to come back. read more

Great hot chicken sandwiches! The mozzarella bricks are solid hot chicken spot that opened near the Lombard area. Definitely a must try.

I wasn't really a fan. I ordered the chicken sandwich. I can't say anything bad about it but it wasn't anything great. The service was great. The people at the counter helped me with the menu. My kid loves the idea of the mozzarella but he wasn't a fan of the seasoning on it. Wrong place for him. I did not dine in but the place had a good vibe. I don't think they need to do anything better it's just not my cup of tea. I'll stick with my usual hot chicken spot. read more

Hard, flavorless chicken. Got sick from it, stomach felt sour for days. Don't recommend.

Had no idea the restaurant was there because of the way it's located off Main Street, but once me and my girlfriend found the place. We were pleasantly surprised how really good the food was. We have been back a few times now and every time we enjoyed the service the food absolutely was very good and we definitely will go back. read more

Very clean and open space is just the beginning. The menu has some real creative items; like their Corn Ribs and Sloppy Fries, and their staples, like Chicken Tenders are unique in their spice. I thought I could handle some heat but after ordering the "hot" seasoned tenders, I rode home with tears running down my cheeks. Definitely worth exploring. read more

Chicken was just ok. There was a jarito bottle cap underneath the wrapping of my chicken wrap

Rude Rooster is the BOMB! The team is so great! They have a wonderful selection. Very cozy area as well! The food was so tasty and delicioussss, I loved it!!! I will be back forsure! read more

Rude Rooster - Nashville Sando - Burgers Near Me - Lombard, Illinois

Tried this place for a Friday lunch as we were in the area and it has good reviews. Lackluster across the board. We were trying to decipher the menu to make our choices and the cashier stood silently by with no other customers being waited on. We waited over 15 minutes for our food. I was thinking well at least it will be fresh but all of the food ( a rude combo and rude burger) was lukewarm temp except the burger which was dry. We did ask again for hot fries but maybe they were microwaved because they were not crisp. Unimpressed and not likely to visit again. Also not their fault but there was deafening construction going on next door. read more

Highly recommend if you want a really good place to eat, great food, and great service. Highly recommend the hot wrap and the are good as well. You can't go wrong with whatever you decide. read more

The rub on the chicken had a foul taste to it. Chicken itself was moist but just tasted weird- could not finish it.

Shoutout to Rude Rooster for making tasty burgers and chicken! I surprisingly liked the burger more here. And that's no knock on the chicken. The fries were nicely seasoned as well with a hint of cilantro. A very cozy restaurant space as well. Will definitely come back here! read more

Rude Rooster - Chicken tenders and smash burger - Burgers Near Me - Lombard, Illinois

This was our first time here. We were here on a Sunday evening , now I don't know if it was because they seemed short staffed but we waited more than an hour for our food. The tenders weren't that great my daughter said, the jalapeño burger was okay , and I got the wrap and it was okay as well. We also had the fries with Mac n cheese , it was supposed to come with chicken but they must've forgotten, and we weren't about to wait another hour for that. So we left it as is. Over all costumer service wasn't all that. Dining experience was a 5.7/10. Will say the ambiance was quiet no music , no entertainment. Clean place over all nicely decorated , great location BUT it was eh. read more

My waistline is not gonna like this! Been waiting all winter for this to open. Well worth the wait! I ordered the deep fried corn and the Nashville Sando Combo, spice level hot. I saw the photo of the corn and wanted to give it a try. It was delicious. Perfect texture and their added spice hit the spot. For the combo, the fries were seasoned and crispy. Now, I travel to Nashville for work and have had many a Nashville Hot Chicken sandwich. This competes with the best of them. The bun was perfect, the coleslaw was amazing, pickles perfect! I like the chicken hot and spicy and this was outstanding. Little burn on the lips (they have many levels), but not where you couldn't eat it. HUGE pieces of chicken breast, and cooked to perfection. Juicy, but not overcooked. A LOT of food. Nice. I'll be back to try the smash burgers! This place is tucked in. Go find it. Well worth it. This easily can be a meal for two. read more

If you're a fan of great hot chicken, Ride Rooster in Lombard deserves a visit. I tried the 3-piece tender combo, and it absolutely delivered. The chicken was crispy on the outside (you know, that solid crunch), juicy on the inside, and packed with flavor. The seasoning had just the right balance of heat and depth without overpowering the chicken itself. The sides and sauce tied everything together perfectly. Honestly, it was so good it would give Hattie B's a run for their money, and that's saying something. If you're anywhere near Lombard and craving Nashville-style hot chicken, Ride Rooster is definitely worth checking out. read more

Absolutely amazing food! I had the chicken sandwich and fries, and both were incredible. The chicken was perfectly tender and crispy, tasting even better than it looked. The fries were delicious, too. I'll definitely be back soon to try their smashburger. read more

Rude Rooster - Great Mac and cheese ! - Burgers Near Me - Lombard, Illinois

Me and my parents decided to try this place out for Valentine's Day lunch, and it is fantastic! I got the chicken tenders. I'm used to smaller portion sizes (especially when it comes to chicken tenders. They tend to always be so small) and we were happily surprised, definitely worth the price. The chicken was incredibly juicy and the breading was perfectly crispy. And the Mozzarella bricks were just PERFECTION The owner was incredibly sweet and helped us with all of our questions. The seating was also really nice. They have normal metal chairs at tables and booths, but there were also a few cushioned seats similar to the booths. We are 100% coming back read more

The food was great! The fries had good seasoning, chicken is great, and the burger was good too. I thought the price for what we ordered (2 combos) was very reasonable. Will definitely go back. read more

Loved the food and the service. The place was clean. All the workers were really nice and helpful. My mom, sister, and I went and ordered a decent amount of food. We left stuffed and with enough food for at least two more people. The Caesar salad wrap was good, the chicken tender basket meal was good, and their fries were seasoned well. For our three meals, we waited a normal amount of time, maybe 10-15 mins. We will probably be back next time we are in the area. read more

Best food ever, it was soo good. the employees were very kind and the Ambiance is amazing.

If you haven't heard about this place you soon will. Great food, great service, and the best vibe inside. The owner makes you want to stay and hangout and talked to us the whole time sitting at the bar top. This place will be the next big thing. read more

Got the 6 piece tender meal. Not sure if it was because it was a Saturday evening or new staff but we had to wait 45 minutes to get our food. The chicken was incredibly tender and had a good spice. Everything was slightly over seasoned which gave a gritty consistency. With the long wait the chicken was very fresh but the fries were a little cold. Would like to see pickles come with the meal but overall it was a good value. read more
