    Our food was absolutely incredible. For the first course we had the shrimp, mussels, and meatballs. All were cooked and seasoned to perfection. For my entree I got the beef short ribs and my friends both got the ravioli. The short ribs were so tender and paired perfectly with the mashed potatoes and miso sauce. Both of my friends finished their ravioli and had rave reviews. We finished off with the Sweet Home Carolina dessert, which was very rich and tasted a lot like a snickers bar. Our server, Basil, was very attentive and knowledgeable. We will definitely be coming back!

    Our waiter couldn’t have been nicer. The food came out quick, the mimosas were great and the food was hot and fresh, and good as always. I can’t wait to return.

    Food was good but service just ok They didn’t have 2 of the wines listed After a second Peroni, they told us they didn’t have more Despite selling us the focaccia to go with the burrata, they brought the focaccia much after we’ve finished the burrata I would call it Mediterranean rather than Italian - there is no pasta and pizzas are more like flatbread. The risotto comes under the large plates but was rather a small one.

    My friend and I had dinner at Coquette last night and it was an amazing experience with great food! Foie gras, potatoes beignets, steak tartare with bone marrow, lamb, champignions, hericot verts! Everything was incredible! A little taste of Paris here in the QC. Our server, Laura, was exceptional: she made great recommendations, answered our questions, was incredibly personable and made the evening an enjoyable one. Our only “complaint: dim those lights and set some candles on the tables.” ;) The manager came over to chat with us - and even made our complaint feel welcome. Such a great experience. I’ve been in for pastries but was thrilled to finally have the chance to savor an evening here. Don’t miss out! You won’t regret it.

    We enjoyed another excellent dining experience at Rooster's. Delicious food, wonderful drinks and lovely ambience. We were thrilled to have Owen as our server again. He made an already thoroughly enjoyable evening even better. Please let him know how much we appreciated his kindness.
