    Service was well below average, starting with the hostess…two other parties of two were seated prior to us 🤷🏻‍♀️ food was cold, ribs and rib eye were good but cold, salads terrible, Mac and cheese was dry, greens 😱, brussel sprouts tasted like they were about to go bad…I could go on, but I’d rather not continue going down bad memory lane!

    Felt rushed. Had reservations ahead of time for a birthday celebration. We got seated at a small table and didn’t really get an opportunity to sit to enjoy the meal. Food was great but the experience just felt really rushed in general dining area.

    Food was good, not remarkable. Service for drinks from the bar, after seated was exceptionally long. Delivery of food was slightly less of a wait. Pretty disappointed that the Gospel singer was not there today.

    Dear Billy, Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We sincerely apologize for the disappointment you faced during your visit, particularly with the lengthy wait for drinks and the absence of our Gospel singer.

We hope you will give us another chance to restore your trust in our restaurant and provide you with the full experience we strive to offer. Warm regards, The Red Rooster Overtown Team

    The food was interesting; a southern Caribbean concept. The portions were good and we enjoyed everything. Everything had a spice to it. To my surprise, the greens were very spicy, but tolerable. The service was not very good. Our server didn’t introduce himself, so we thought he was the server assistant. One person asked for an appetizer as their meal, yet the plate was sent out 15 mins before everyone else’s. He wasn’t very talkative and did the bare minimum. He would stand there and wait for us to speak to him. This would be a good date night spot. I wouldn’t recommend it as a family spot. The restaurant is very beautiful inside and out.

    Dear Sydney, Thank you for being our guest and for sharing your feedback. We strive to make every visit memorable with unique flavors and outstanding service. We are deeply sorry to have missed the mark during your visit. Although we are thrilled you loved our amazing food and beautiful restaurant, we apologize for the less-than-attentive service. We want all our guests to enjoy every aspect of their time with us, and your feedback is very helpful. We hope you will give us another chance to show you the true Red Rooster experience that we are proud of, and we look forward to the possibility of welcoming you back soon. Warmly, The Red Rooster Overtown Team
