Wife and I found the Rolling Rooster casually searching/reading reviews for soul food places online, so we pulled up to check them out for ourselves. Don't let the location/building fool you. The food here packs PLENTY of flavor, and the portions are considerably generous, all while the prices are very reasonable. I had the jerk lamb chop appetizer and I'll just say they need this in a full meal deal! 3 perfectly grilled small lamb chops on a bed of yellow rice, jerk seasoned, grilled and tasty! My main course meal included the Sample Platter with 1pc Fish, 1pc Chicken, and 1pc Pork Chop with Mac n Cheese and Collard Greens. The "samples" were full size pieces of each!! My wife had the 2 pork chop meal covered with brown gravy, mac n cheese, collards and the yams. All of it was tasty and fulfilling. The atmosphere is relaxing with some soft old school R&B playing and the waitress/service was very pleasant and attentive. They also have a full bar, but we did not order alcohol. Overall great food, cozy atmosphere, good service, and relaxing vibe. Highly recommend. We will definitely return next time we are in the area and deire some good down home soul food!

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!

This was my first visit in over two years. I wanted my husband to try it. There was no wait and the place was full. On the way to our seat we noticed the floors were very slippery. After we were seated we watched other patrons try to avoid falling due to the floors. Our server was very forgetful. No drinks and no plastic ware to eat with. We watched her get comfortable after each request and could tell she just forgot. The pork chops and wings are worth the trip from Manor. The beans came out of van and the yams are watery, but the greens are smooth and delicious.

I’m very disappointed in this place. I’m new to Austin and was recommended to this place by some friends here just to be disappointed and dissatisfied. First and foremost the customer service over all was very good, service was very good, nice overall atmosphere! But that food was very disappointing. Let’s start off with how my collard greens were cold , like they had just got them out the refrigerator and then served them to me, the Mac and cheese was not speaking to my soul, It was giving box Mac and cheese with melted cheese on top and no seasoning. The sweet yams , off bat came from a can . Wasn’t no love , or hard work put into those sweet yams. It was definitely giving Canned yams, the oxtails were good and flavorful, however they were too fatty, and I was chewing a little too long. And a little dry, the gravy was good but a bit too salty. And the cornbread tasted like yall left it out over night and slabbed a half a stick of butter on top. Definitely would rate this overall experience a 6.5. Now my review isn’t to bring this restaurant down but to be honest with my overall experience here. Take care , and godbless .

Everything was perfect with my experience here on a Wednesday night! Ray, our waitress, was extremely friendly, helpful, and made sure our family was taken care of. Restaurant was clean and the food was so good I forgot to take pictures lol. Thank you for a great night!

Everything I've ever eaten here is great, prices are good, serving sizes are solid. Love the sample platters. If there's anything to complain about, the service can sometimes be a little slow, but that's it.

OMG, those Collard Greens are banging with spices. Fried pork chops and that Mac go harder than Trump!
