Rooster & Rice offers flavorful dishes, with the cutlet and chicken rice being highlights. The chicken is moist and tender, while the rice is well-cooked, although some customers feel it could be improved. The sauces, especially the ginger and scallion sauce with Sriracha, complement the chicken nicely, and extra sauce options are available. The "Hat Yai chicken" is crispy and worth trying, while the "original" meal features juicy chicken, balanced flavors, and a generous portion. Customers appreciate the satisfying Hainan chicken served with seasoned rice, cucumber, hot broth, and their choice of sauces, all at a reasonable price. Service is generally prompt and friendly, with helpful staff, though seating is only outside. Visitors can enjoy drinks from nearby stores in the plaza. Some find the flavors reminiscent of Southeast Asia, making it a favorite for those craving authentic Hainan chicken. New offerings like the kale chicken salad and chicken burrito have also received positive feedback. Despite some service issues noted elsewhere, the food quality and taste make Rooster & Rice a popular spot for quick, delicious meals. It is a solid place for a healthy, great-tasting meal, perfect for food pickups and outdoor dining.
