Live music on Sunday was such a welcome addition to our meal! Unfortunately, if you’re seated in the smaller, more quiet room, you won’t be able to appreciate the band so choose wisely!
Red Rooster HarlemResponded 6 days ago
Hi Kanya, We're thrilled you enjoyed the live music—it truly adds a special and one-of-a-kind energy. We apologize if your seating arrangement limited your ability to enjoy the entertainment fully. Your feedback is invaluable, and we'll consider it as we continue to enhance the guest experience. Next time, please let us know your preference, and we’ll do our best to seat you in the main room so you can soak in every note of the performance. We look forward to hosting you again soon and wish you a happy holiday season. Best regards, The Red Rooster Harlem Restaurant Team

Red Rooster is a favorite restaurant to take out of town visitors and for special events. The atmosphere is Harlem jazzy-vibrant and joyful. The food is delicious and service is great. We had a party of 4 and our waiter was excellent. My only complaint the Collard greens were a little too vinegary. Post COVID the menu is more limited then I remember but all was good and arrived to our table hot and quick.
Red Rooster HarlemResponded 7 days ago
Dear Julie, Thank you for making Red Rooster Harlem your go-to spot for out-of-town visitors and special events! We’re thrilled you and your group enjoyed our jazzy, vibrant atmosphere, delicious food, and excellent service. We appreciate your feedback about the collard greens and will be sure to share it with our team. We can’t wait to welcome you and your guests back for another joyful Harlem experience. Have a wonderful holiday season! Best wishes, The Red Rooster Harlem Team

We love it here, but the music was way too loud. We had to shout to hear one another.
Red Rooster HarlemResponded 5 days ago
Dear Jaclyn, We appreciate your review! It is great to read that you enjoyed our yummy food and excellent service. However, we're sorry to read that the music was a bit too loud when you dined with us. Our goal is to create an exciting environment, and it appears we missed the mark. Please accept our sincerest apologies. Our music program changes nightly, so perhaps a different genre of music may be better suited for you. We hope this does not deter you from joining us again. Warmly, The Red Rooster Team
