   The bloody roosters (bloody Marys), crab cake appetizer and deviled eggs side dish were excellent. We were underwhelmed by the jerk cauliflower. Covered in plantain chips, guacamole below, and awkwardly plated. The shrimp and grits had a good flavor but the grits were soupy. Glad we went, nice ambiance and service. Not sure if I would return.

   Loved the food and the staff. We had a lovely dinner at Red Rooster. It was my mother's first time and she loved it. The live music was an extra special treat for us. The entire staff was great. They were attentive and professional. There are a few things that I think could improve. Firstly, I think having dinners pack their own leftovers is a terrible idea. I know it has become a thing to do, but I think its a big ask. I think leftovers should be packed and brought back to the table. I also think the bathroom could have better upkeep. The wallpaper was peeling in the one I used. I personally also think its pretty tacky to have hand soap in a bottle that is clearly not the same brand. Just use plain plastic bottle without labels. Finally, Red Rooster is too good to have pink industrial hand soap in their bathroom.

   We thoroughly enjoyed our meal at The Red Rooster. We were greeted promptly and our service prompt. The live music was a bonus which we enjoyed.

   Service was good. Food came out very quick. There was a jazz quartet performing who were very talented and not too loud to drown out conversation. The drinks were excellent, especially the strawberry soda with whisky.

    As always, and absolutely wonderful vibe. I spent many years in Harlem and the RR remains an institution to us...we beam with pride because you're treated with such warmth, kindness, and respect. It's like you're family. We celebrated my brother's 65th bday at the RR and thoroughly enjoyed the gospel jazz brunch...the vocalist sang with my brother. Just a memory that my family will always cherish. Thanks RR!
