We typically go to dinner at Rooster’s prior to a Bluementhal show. The experience is mostly always good, with the exception of a couple of hiccups. Hiccups are usually addressed by management, so we continue to support. I would recommend Rooster’s for the good food, convenience and ambience.

Love love love the vibes! So relaxed, removed, intimate and approachable. Don’t let the casual vibes fool you—the service here is exceptional. Wonderfully welcoming, friendly, with an attention to detail that is worthy of a Michelin star but without any of the fuss. The menu variety is impressive, both on the food and the cocktail side of things. We will be back!
