Opinions de The Rolling Rooster Austin
I found out about The Rolling Rooster on TikTok and decided to pull up on my lunch break from Ubering (strictly for research purposes, of course). The catfish is what got me — and listen… it did NOT disappoint. I ordered the 4 shrimp / 2 fish / 2 sides combo (fried okra + seasoned fries) and a strawberry margarita. Total was about $25, which in ATX is basically a steal. The portions? Generous. The seasoning? On point. The catfish? Crispy, flaky, and seasoned like somebody’s grandma was supervising the kitchen. I left full, happy, and slightly considering canceling my next delivery just to sit there longer. I’ve tried a lot of spots around Austin, but this one? It really takes the crown. Amazing food, solid portions, and quality service. 10/10. Would risk my lunch break again.
We went earlier today order 2 things of chicken and waffles one with buffalo sauce. It was my first time ever trying chicken and waffles… fried chicken 10/10 was amazing! We even got some of their kool-aid pickles the blue raz was my favorite. Wonderful experience all around and the lady in the front was super kind an amazing person all together! Definitely will be coming back.
Customer service my goodness 10/10!!! Not sure what the woman’s name was , but she’s def an OG up there. Her patience and charisma is everything! Great hospitality, the place is clean. Food is delicious EVERY TIME! Definitely a top 5 in the Austin area!
The pictures online just looked great. The place looked like if the bar Cheers was a restaurant instead. I just knew online was telling a story.... Let me tell you what! I was wrong. This place is EVERYTHING the pictures were showing. It has been a long time since I've tasted chicken that good. So many places are flavored straight off of the food truck. Not this place. Chicken was fried perfectly. You must try it. Tell them the hot sauce guy sent you.
Just went to rolling rooster for the first time. Ordered the 4 chicken strips with the waffle and added mac & cheese on the side.The chicken and waffle were AMAZING. Mac & cheese was amazing too! Service was amazing and extremely friendly. Food came out fast, whole thing was just easy and delicious. Definitely my new spot for chicken and waffles. Everything was amazing :) 5 stars.
I’m from Lubbock, Texas, and this is my first time in Austin. This place was recommended to me, and I was not let down at all. Malik took great care of me and my girl — he explained the menu really well and knew everything about it. Definitely a 10/10. Prices were great, and the food was awesome. Highly recommend!
Picked this place on a whim to serve the need of different food likes and dietary preferences. I must say, the food was excellent (hot and perfectly seasoned), prices reasonable, portions generous (we all left full with to go boxes), drinks strong ❤️, and service good (despite the fact that it was one waitress on duty). Me and my clan will definitely be back! Highly recommend
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The Rolling Rooster is absolutely incredible! The food was out of this world — I had the chicken tenders, and they were hands down the best I’ve ever had: perfectly crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside, and full of flavor. On top of that, the service was amazing. Zee went above and beyond to make the experience enjoyable, friendly, and welcoming. It’s rare to find a spot that nails both the food and the service, but The Rolling Rooster delivers on both fronts. Highly recommend if you’re craving great comfort food and a warm dining experience!
First time here and had an AMAZING meal! The chicken is hands down some of the best I've had in town, fried okra was also seasoned excellently! Hubs had the chicken and waffle and he really enjoyed the waffle,, which can be lackluster at other spots serving the same dish. Looking forward to our next time eating here!! 💜✨️
I am in town for the weekend with my family and decided to try this restaurant after a disappointing experience at a nearby competitor. I'm so glad we did! The customer service was outstanding, and the food was even better. Every dish was perfectly seasoned, hot, and fresh. The side dishes were equally impressive, and the chicken was amazing—it’s so good you don’t need anything with it! I’ll definitely return whenever I’m in town and will happily recommend this place to my friends and family.
What a find! I've been to Austin a few times, and I was fortunate enough to stumble across this location in my endless search for good eats here in Texas. Boy did thet deliver on the soul. The oxtails were excellent, and the pudding for dessert is one of the best in the area, which is why they earn my coveted "Certified Mad Good" rating. Well done.
Got take out at this place, and the food was freshly prepared and out in 20 min. After driving back home for about 20 min, the fried fish and chicken are still crispy! The fish is on the salty side, but the dry rub is so flavorful! Same are the chicken wings. The slight acidity in the seasoning perfectly balances out the heavy flavor of deep-fried food. The fried gizzards are pretty good! Super crispy and chewy on the inside. I've not had gizzards cooked this way, but it's super fun and tasty. The waffle is also very delicious. I personally like my waffle crispy. Although this waffle is very soft in the texture, the little sweet crumbs (with a cheese taste) on the surface make it pretty unique. I like this place a lot! Definitely will be back to try more stuff on the menu!
Food was great, employees were very friendly and attentive. Drinks were really good. Nice place inside as well.

My mom and I went today for the first time. And I am so happy we tried it out. Everything we tried was so delicious. the chicken tenders did not have heavy breading which was so nice and the Mac and cheese was delicious and had great flavor. We had the peach cobble after and my my my did we enjoy it. We will definitely be back.
Waiting for my daughter to come back into town and still had some time and I was hungry so I drove around in her area. There it was, I always heard of this place and was excited because I have always wanted to try it out. The place is a total vibe the minute you walk in. The food was good but that pork chop from that sampler OMG! It was deliciously juicy and flavored so well that the hot sauce that I poured on it was like the cherry on top! Service was a bit slow and could use more smiles but it was fair.
I didn't expect to receive my appetizer of jerk Lamb chops with no plates or utensils. I could have made it work, but there were no napkins. While waiting for the server to come back, it started getting cold. The Obama flight was tastey like kool-aid. Probably difficult to add much alcohol and keep the flavor balanced. Loved the gravy smothered oxtail over rice.
Soul food restaurant with extensive menu of combo options including chicken, fish, waffles, sides, and oxtail. They have a longbar as well, including specials. There are many tables, booths, and bar seats. I loved the 90s hip hop and rnb. The chicken tender option I got with the waffles were hearty enough the little plastic fork and knife had trouble cutting them. The hot sauce and syrup gave things the extra sweetness and spice they needed. They have a huge free parking lot shared with other businesses in the same strip.
First time here and overall it was quite decent with a few things I didn't care for. The wings were absolutely amazing! Next time I'll get more wings. I was actually disappointed in myself for only getting one. The rice and gravy. The gravy wAs fine but the rice had a weird taste to it, almost sour like. At first I thought it was the gravy, so I tried them separately and it was definitely the rice. The collard greens were good, but was expecting some of that smoked meat flavoring to it. There was none or if there was, wasn't remarkable. Mac and cheese...also wasn't that great, but still decent I guess. A bit dry and that sour taste was back. Yams were good. Pretty sure they were canned that was doctored up. Fish was actually good and well seasoned, and I'm not really a fish person, so the fact that I liked them said a lot. Pork chop, I had high hopes for this. I think the seasoning wasn't the best, and maybe a bit too salty, but still ok. Overall I would definitely order the greens, and chicken and fish and yams again.
The Rolling Rooster has good fried shrimp. The mac and cheese was to really good and I would recommend as a must try. The service was great. Unfortunately the table that we were going to be sat at was dirty and the host cleaned it for us by wiping it down. He did forget to dry it, but grateful it was cleaned. (I dried it myself with napkins). The waitress was friendly and helpful. They offer Happy Hour but I did not try any alcoholic beverages this time. The tables seem like they need an overhaul, a tad too tall and wobbly from wear and tear. But overall would definitely say give this place a try and of course order the mac and cheese!
This place was really well put together and had a great chill vibe when we arrived. Our server was nice and polite and took care of us and our unique needs. The food was cool to order which took a bit, but I don't mind waiting for hot food. And the plates were well put together and offered a good amount for the price. We ordered fish and wings, Mac and cheese, okra, rice and gravy along with some fried pickles. The pickles would slip out of the batter, but had a good flavor. Mac had a good flavor to it as well, with heavy pepper (for those picky eaters to beware!) rice and gravy had a amazing taste and was cooked to perfect. Chicken had a excellent crunch and flavor and size. Fish was very thinly sliced, could've had a tad more crunch to it in my opinion, but the flavor was good. Tarter sauce was good as well. Each plate was offered one slice of warm bread to go with the meal. Their cool aid is what you should order! It was chef's kiss to perfection! Food was about $25-$20 with a high priced drinks of over $3! We spent about $80 for our meal of 3.
If you want flavor that's out of this world, you must try their wings. The chef in the back sprinkled fairy dust on their because it was something out of this world. Anything fried in Rolling Rooster…

We had the fried fish and chicken wings i wasn't disappointed at all with the food very tasty only thingi wish the fish had more meat they cut it really thin...the waitress would've gotten more tip if the restaurant didn't automatically add the tip to our ticket for only two people...so we gave the waitress what they ask for $8 What happened to adding tip to the ticket with 5 or more seated? This is why I gave 3 stars Just trying to show support for our black own businesses seem to get screwed almost every time...sad! But im not going to stop supporting
The fish is 1 fillet in 2 pieces, the wings are whole wings, shrimp was jumbo, waffle had 2 different flavor since I wanted to try both. Flavor was okay not the best or the worst. I asked for the e…

The tenders, fries and chicken wings tasted like it was cooked it old grease and had a slightly burnt appearance. The chicken lacked flavor, likely due to the old grease they fried it in. However, they were crispy. The condiments might’ve helped but everything was off brand (ketchup & ranch). The macaroni…I feel like it was stove top and not oven baked. It tasted very bland and was barely sprinkled/cooked with any cheese. The yams were super mushy and sweet…not sure if they were canned or fresh. I also had shrimp that the menu said was large but they were extremely small. Overall, the food was not worth the price. BUT on high note, the customer service was great. The ladies who helped me were super sweet & helpful. The atmosphere seemed cool too….they had a DJ in there. I went at night.

Waited 2 hours for my food didn't even bring out my tables drinks while we waited and didn't even bring out the correct order and the food was cold worst service I've experienced in my life
I think $40 for 2 oxtails and a small side of rice is over charge.. you can get oxtails at other local restaurants in the area for $22 that comes with 3 & way bigger portions and sides.. the rice was gone in just a few bites.. & majority of the oxtail will have fat on it so what am I really getting for $40? If someone is going to pay almost $50 for a meal atleast make the portions larger.. smh
