The Rooster is that rare gem that incorporates a local business coupled with elevated food, quality and combined with friendly and efficient service. This is a true five star. I went twice within 24 hours because the food was simply delicious. I enjoyed the blackened snapper eggs Benedict. Now I am from Florida so I know good snapper from bad and this was amazing. It was perfectly blackened with a great Cajun flavor and the fish remained succulent. The biscuits here are incredible. Huge and fluffy and tasty. I substitute the hollandaise sauce for their sausage and jalapeño gravy which I think was a pro move!! My second day I enjoyed the fried chicken and waffles. I also had a slice of hummingbird cake. If I had stayed in nipples a third day, I would've returned one more time. I highly recommend this place and I will definitely be back next time. I am in Naples. read more

Ordered the biscuits, banana brûlée French toast, omelette, and rooster egg sandwich. The egg sandwich had very fluffy eggs. French toast was too sweet. Service was average-paced. Ice coffee was good 4 stars because too many flies. Even the kitchen looked like there were a lot of flies. read more

Love everything about this place. It's not often you find a restaurant that makes nearly everything from scratch!! From the biscuits to the sandwiches everything we tried was fantastic. We sat outside on the patio which was nicely decorated and had plenty of shade from the Florida sun. Our waitress (Abigail) was friendly and inviting. She was also well informed about everything on the menu which could be made gluten free to accommodate my wife's celiac. Speaking of gluten free, they have a gluten free biscuit which is so good we bought some to take home with us. She was so thoughtful, she gave us a bag of ice to keep the uncooked biscuits cool on our drive!! If you're in the area, this is worth the stop!! read more

Wonderful! Fantastic food, service and ambience. I had the Rooster Benedict and hubby had the pimento cheese toast with eggs. Our server Abigail was top notch! If you do nothing else, or just take it home, the homemade hummingbird cake is to die for! read more

Fantastic place for lunch. I had their renowned brisket and better than I even expected. The meat was good but also great combination of sauce and cheese. Lots of great and interesting flavors. I also substituted the cole slaw for fries, made it much more manageable and it was good slaw. I also enjoyed the fried green tomatoes, nice remoulade and well prepared. read more

I cannot say enough good things about The Rooster Food & Drink in Naples, Fl. When we first arrived around noon there was a line of people waiting to be seated because the restaurant is just that good!! In the scheme of things, we ended up not having to wait that long to be seated. They have an extensive menu of feel good food and many menu items can be made gluten free if they are not already and it is not a gluten free restaurant. They also have both gluten free biscuits and non gluten free biscuits and both incredible! I have to be gluten free and I was able to order The Rooster Benedict on a gluten free biscuit. Every morning they make their own lemon hollandaise sauce, in addition to, all of their other menu items. It also came with a hash brown muffin that was so delicious! I was in heaven that I could eat something like this and have it be so delicious at the same time!! My husband who is not gluten free ordered the biscuits and gravy breakfast and also ordered a side of brisket. He absolutely loved his meal too! I was also able to have some of the brisket which was so good as well! Our waiter was fabulous too! Not only was he so patient and kind but he was so knowledgeable about gluten, in addition to the chef, being very knowledgeable about what gluten was and what menu items I could have! It was so comforting to go to a restaurant and having this kindness and knowledge and deliciousness!! I loved the ambiance, decor and "warmness" of the place too! read more

Great service! Friendly, humorous and attentive. Importantly, they KNOW the menu. The shrimp and grits were delicious, smooth and very flavorful. One of the best we've ever had. The chilaquiles were as good as I've ever had in Mexico and portions were sizable! Can't wait to see their new location in East Naples! read more

A little hole in the wall located in a strip mall with parking being a little tough. There is a disabled parking space right in front however maybe a litle challenging given the slop of the space. This restaurant is very cozy with limited inside seating, there is additional outdoor seating available. I arrived mid morning and was able to secure a 2 top table indoors again - seating is very close together and you can literally reach over to the next table. Complimentary biscuits are served but we declined - we didnt want to waste food since we do not eat a large breakfast. Our breakfast tab was over $40 and felt it was a bit expensive since we only ordered - the Rooster Waffle, the Two Natural Egg breakfast and 2 beverages. The waffle and egg's are average at best but the noteworthy item was the Hashbrown Tater which is like a Hashbrown muffin and very good. Friendly staff even though our server was not that great ( even over heard another table tell her that her service needed work) Coke proucts are served but sadly no Coke Zero and the Root Beer is IBC read more

This place is a the end of a strip mall and it's a cute little restaurant. The biscuits are delicious. The jalapeño sausage gravy is soooo good and the fried green tomatoes were amazing. I think they could do a couple things better like my son said the strawberry French toast was way too sweet. Maybe because they say it in a plate of caramel sauce. And the fruit was not fresh or it was soaked in something sweet as well which made the bread soggy. I think the savory dishes were better than the sweet. The shrimp and grits were good as well. I didn't care for the blueberry lemon pancakes either. Our server was nice. Overall pretty good experience. read more

Food and service was excellent. There were so many options. It took me forever to decide what I wanted. Started off with a bacon bloody Mary. Was excellent. Everything we got was delicious and the waitress was super helpful. Will definitely be coming back again soon. read more

Of course I was brought here by Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives and it was amazing. We got seated very quickly, which I was concerned about because the place is on the small side, but no problems. Our server was super fun and friendly. The place is small but very well decorated and there's a lot to look at, which was cool. We ordered the Texas Reuben and a Curried Chicken Salad. The curried chicken was delicious but the Reuben was to die for. It was so delicious. The fries were also incredible. Then we made a very wise decision to try the Hummingbird cake. It was like carrot cake had a baby with a pumpkin roll and that baby weighed 100 pounds! I was so full it hurt but it was a great meal. We even picked up some homemade dog treats! If I could change one thing, I wish they had fountain diet drinks. They have a few fountain drinks but the diet ones are in cans. It's absolutely not a big deal and I would go back any time! read more

I think I have eaten out at every brunch place in Naples as a dear friend lives there and we meet up for brunch often. So imagine my delight when she says, "let's try the Rooster" which has been on my list for awhile now. We went on a Friday morning. It was a chilly Florida day but given the size of the place we decided to sit outside. Our server was over in a flash suggesting things and then he tells me they don't have a liquor license . . .and just as I was groaning about my lack of a Bloody Mary, he says they can make one with wine as the alcohol and I won't know the difference? Really? Well you know what? he was right! We had a large sized group so we got to taste a wide variety of the menu. I had the chilaquiles with shrimp that had the fluffiest scrambled eggs on them that I have ever eaten! I would go back for that dish alone. And ask for a side of bacon as you definitely get your money's worth! I bet there were 5 pieces of bacon on that plate! We also decided to share a sweet dish so we all got a bite of the Banana Brulee french toast which was heaven on a plate! Be still my taste buds! Others at the table at the avocado toast, shrimp and grits, eggs Benedict, sausage and gravy and the chicken and waffles. Everyone said at the end of the meal that The Rooster was now our fav place in Naples. Know before you go that this place isn't fancy. If you want to use the restrooms you'll be hiking around the building to the one seat restroom in the back of the place, but that's just part of the charm! I will definitely be back! What a find! read more

Absolutely worth the drive. The Rooster hot and crunchy grouper delivered an explosion of flavor--perfectly crisp on the outside with a fresh, flaky bite inside. Every element worked together, and the balance of heat and crunch kept you going back for more. This is one of those dishes you don't forget--I'd easily drive an hour just to have it again. The chicken and waffles didn't miss either. The chicken was unbelievably crunchy with a golden, well-seasoned crust, and stayed juicy inside. My mom couldn't stop talking about it the entire meal--that kind of reaction says everything. On top of the food, it's a cute, chic spot with excellent service. Jenna was especially accommodating and made sure my elderly mom and friend were comfortable, which really stood out. If you're looking for bold flavor, texture done right, and something that actually stands out, this place delivers. read more

Solid. Great food. Great service. The chicken and waffles with a side of bacon, damn, it was good. Leave the pepper jelly sauce on the chicken. The place is packed.

Found this place because of Diner, Drive-Ins, and Dives and was glad that I did! Super friendly staff that were very helpful with navigating the menu. The portion sizes here are massive! I got the Reuben Sandwich and it was huge. Layers upon layers of corned beef all between two slices of rye bread. The inclusion of coleslaw helps to cut through the richness of the sandwich. The only slight issues I had was that the bread got soggy too quickly. So about halfway through, the sandwich was falling apart. But other than that, the flavors were excellent and the restaurant gives up such friendly and good vibes :) read more

Had the Rooster Benne, the asparagus and hash browns were so salty they were almost inedible sorry to say.

I went to The Rooster for lunch with my husband and daughter. I ordered their Curried Chicken Salad. My husband got their Fried Chicken Sandwich. My daughter got their Short Rib Benedict special. My husband and daughter liked their meals. I thought my meal was just ok, just too much mayo in my chicken salad. We sat on their patio outside to eat, which was nice. Our server was nice and personable. Overall, pretty decent experience. read more

This time we tried the filet Benedict. The lemon hollandaise was amazing and having it on top the biscuit was a great addition. The only problem was the filet was not cooked at all to what I asked. I did tell the server but had eaten some so no big deal. Fish wings for my bf as he loves those. Took home a cake, dog biscuits and some cookies. All yummy and enjoyed later. Great brunch place near downtown Naples read more

After a redeye flight, we were excited to sit down for some real food. Bleary-eyed, exhausted, and a little sweaty from wearing way-too-warm attire, we needed good food. Perplexity AI led us to The Rooster. As we parked one said "hm, how did we pick this place?" It's in a generic strip mall on a generic street. Wow, the food was the opposite of generic. When we sat down we realized it was in the Guy Fieri show. The menus was dense and unique. We had three different dishes and each was truly delicious. It took a bit to arrive, but it was worth it. The chicken sandwich flood of flavors was shocking. Service was very friendly but sporadic. But, we knew how to flag someone down when needed. The restroom is out the front, around the side, and to the the back of the kitchen. While odd, it points to the "hey, we just now got discovered; and we will grow!" feel. We loved it: a gem. Highly recommended! read more

We came here for breakfast. Jenna was our waitress and she was very knowledgeable, helpful and attentive. The restaurant was so cute and cozy with their decor. Everything we ordered was very tasty - the shrimp and grits, banana brûlée French toast, blueberry and lemon pancakes, chicken and waffles and fried green tomato Benedict. All of the food was really good. I would say the banana brûlée French toast is sweet, so that's a good one to order and share as a dessert breakfast. The fried green tomato Benedict, while delicious, was served cold. The coffee was good also. You can't go wrong with anything you order. Definitely recommend. read more

We came to snuff the rooster and we succeeded! What a brunch experience! The Bloody Mary kicked things off and it both fulfilled our thirst and our appetite! It comes with a big piece of candied bacon, a piece of pickled okra and a jalapeño stuffed olive. The spice level was nice and mild. We wanted to try as much as we could so we played plate roulette. We had to go with the Texas Rueben, the blackened snapper benne and an order of biscuits and jalapeño gravy. The ingenuity and quality of these dishes was next level! Even the hash browns are cooked like a casserole in a cupcake tin! The quality of the meat on the Texas Rueben was just perfect. Smokey with just enough fat and topped with sautéed onions and coleslaw. The fries like the hash browns are next level! Thick cut beef tallow fries make everything all right! The biscuits and gravy were so indulgent and though it is jalapeño gravy it's not too spicy, in fact nothing was overly spicy. The snapper benne was made with fresh fish and went perfectly with the lemony hollandaise sauce. We also had to go full circle and get a huge piece of Mama's hummingbird cake. The server was friendly and attentive even though she was being run ragged. Not a lot of seating inside or out so there is a good chance you're waiting. Absolutely can't wait to come back and slip into another self induced food coma! read more

First time here. Ordered eggs over and bacon. Waitress asks do I want the biscuit first? I said no. Breakfast comes. Eggs over, bacon and hash browns in the shape of a muffin. No biscuit. Eggs and bacon were good. I asked where is the biscuit after i finished. Waitress said no biscuit with breakfast. I asked, no toast? No, no toast. I have never been to a breakfast place anywhere in the WORLD that doesn't have some kind of bread and butter. The hash brown muffin ,while it looks good was luke warm and indiscript. I was asked if I wanted more coffee after I was all finished. All in all extremely unmemorable in a positive light. read more

I've been going here for 5 years and never had a bad experience or food that was not outstanding. Their take on southern classics is remarkable. It's great to experience that nothing has changed since the triple D hype nothing has changed. Great experience service and setting is local Florida with a southern pop! read more

Definitely a different breakfast, lunch and brunch experience. The word is out about this Triple D "Food TV" standout. Sure you can get eggs and pancakes, but you can also get Banana or peach bruelle French toast, avacado toast or pimento cheese toast with candy bacon. I had the Texas Ruben with moist brisket and jalapeño relish and savory cheese and cold slaw. Delicious- the only improvement would be to serve the brisket medium with some red center. My wife had a delicious omelette with wonderful from scratch hash browns with baby asparagus and seapeas. Delicious Good coffee. Be prepared to wait for a table, and a longer wait than typical breakfast due to how popular the Rooster is. read more

I took my dad here for Father's Day brunch and it was great! The interior is tiny so there is very limited seating but we went around 1pm and were able to sit right away. It was a little bit warm inside so you might find it uncomfortable if you spent a while waiting outside in the heat before sitting down. I had the crabcake benedict and it was amazing! The hush puppy muffins that come with the meals are delicious as well. We also had a pancake which was really yummy, but keep in mind the pancake style here is more thin and crispy than fluffy and moist. Also, the standard pancake batter is lemon flavored. There were a few issues with our order (brought over orange juice instead of apple juice and brought the wrong pancakes to our table) but they fixed both of those immediately and were apologetic. My dad also didn't like that his hush puppy was well done and they had no issues at all giving him a new one. Overall the service was great and the food was delicious! I would absolutely return. read more

My husband and I stopped in for breakfast while in Naples. The location has nice decor and we were greeted promptly. We started with the homemade biscuits and everyone should. The biscuits had great texture and they came with local jams, which were absolutely delicious. For my main, I had the pork belly BLT. The pork could've been a little bit crispier but I enjoyed the flavors and the bacon helped bring more texture. My husband had the shrimp and grits and it was very tasty. Shrimps are well cooked and the sauce was really good. It was a great breakfast would definitely go back. read more

My experience wasn't the best. Cute small restaurant, the staff was ok, wasn't very friendly nor were they rude. The food wasn't good and I feel this place is over priced. I had the two egg breakfast and the bacon was undercooked, the potato came in form of a cupcake, which isn't a problem but mine was over cooked. I also ordered cheese grits on the side, and the grits were super clunky. They told me that's how they're made, inspired from the original way. They did take the grits off my tab which I appreciate... read more

Daughter got me the brisket sandwich & fries after watching Guy's review. When I went in for my first bite I couldn't bite through it. The majority of the brisket you would need a scissor to cut through and was very salty. I told my wife to have a bite and hers ended up in the trashcan. Hers was tough also, and although she loves salty food, she couldn't eat it. I couldn't pick up the fries underneath it as they were like trying to pick up Jell-O. I was really looking forward to it for Father's Day, but the rest of it went into the trashcan. read more
