Lady working the cashier was absolutely amazing. Sweetest lady ever. The cooks were amazing and they have a very good crew working. The only names I received were Mar, Janeka, Dom and Tone but everyone was incredible and we definitely will be back.“

“The fried chicken sandwich and tater tot’s are wonderful.

Went here off a recommendation of my son who works close by. What a find. The food is freshly made to order and the chicken patty is deliciously unique. Not a raising canes, not a chick fil a. It’s makes its own name with a seasoned breaded crispy batter that is sliced into strips. Almost like a chicken fried steak.

The chicken goes really well with the mayo and slaw so that is how we ordered it. And would do it again.

Happy hour all day on the weekend so make sure to get a loaded tator tot (nacho cheese, bacon, and green onions on top).

All in a, a fun spot to pop in and get some food. Dining area is limited, but there is also seating out front.“

“Lunch at The Roost is one of our favorites in SF. As a pescatarian, this is actually the ONLY chicken I eat, anywhere - and it is delicious. The adobo seasoning is fabulous. Cole slaw has a unique flavor that I wish I could replicate at home. Do try the sweet potato croquettes, but leave room for their brown butter cookies!“

The craft beer list always has great options and if you're a chicken fan, this place is for you. Their chicken sandwich, wings and tenders are so delicious! They also have Nashville options if you're looking for some heat. The atmosphere is awesome, it's a casual, laid back spot thats good for groups, bringing kids, and/or just grabbing a cold one with a buddy!“

“Randomly wandered in here, and was very pleased with the food options.
Its is burgers, fries, etc. so don't expect a lot of non-meat things on the menu. Prices are also higher than your chain places, and also because this is in SanFran.
Ordering was pretty fast and efficient, and the staff working there both times I stopped in were on point. (You can order via kiosk or at the counter).
Food tasted very fresh, the fountain drink options were local flavors of pop, which I really liked.
Seating was fairly plentiful, and the security & regular staff kept the location pretty clean & tidy.
Definetly a restaurant I'd dine at regularly, just to try all the various items on the menu.“

Cali Cluckwich

“Four stars because they clucked up one of the things we ordered. The Cali Cluckwich came with no tempeh bacon or avocado added on, and we didn't have time to get it fixed because we were crunched for time on a work lunch break. Without the cali ingredients added, it was a plain old classic cluckwich. Other than that, taste-wise the food was good. Also, I've always loved the customer service at the San Francisco location, the employees are always so happy and friendly. Hunny Hickory TenderClucks were delicious. I chose all fries, no slaw, and it might have been the largest side of fries I've ever got at a restaurant. Updated from previous review on 2023-08-07“

“RT rotisserie doesn't need my praise..... it seem like they have at least two possibly a third coming, up and down oak st. So they're doing things right and I just wanted to add my two cents. I got the pork belly bowl with the chimmy sauce. Cooked rice, cooked pork belly cubes, fresh mild raw an pickeled vegetables sliced and shredded of course sauce of your choice. It was just thrown together in a bowl. But here's the thing, every bite was to my liking how do they do that? Makes me think they know what they're doing.“

The interior music is loud and the bass is cranked up, so eat at the outside tables to take your food to the park across the street. Not a fan of the 5% fee on top of taxes, just show us the real prices please!“

The blooming onion was delicious, would recommend getting it for a group versus just 2 people because it’s a lot! Got a slice of chocolate cake to go and it was so good. Def would come back with a group for brunch to try more things!“

“Lemme tell you dude this place is like walking into a candy store as an abnormally large child. Amazing food, amazing staff, amazing atmosphere with the birds everywhere. Let me tell you though, taking a bit of that food is like a virgin getting some for the first time. Single best meatball I've ever tasted in my 18 years of existence. One of the best pizzas I've ever had. The second if not first best bowl of spaghetti I've ever had. If I was an inmate at Alcatraz I'd escape it just to ear here. Felt like I was dining in what a dude named Sal would call heaven. Definitely recommend , definitely coming back next time I'm in this city.“

“5 stars for Paulette with the pink hair. She went well out of her way to help me to figure out how to order one of the specials that were apparently only offered if ordering from online. She still managed to serve several customers with ease (as she was also helping me with the website glitch) that were coming through during the process. Otherwise, had I ordered the same box from the counter, it would have cost me $5 more! She went above and beyond what is considered good customer service. I can only imagine how any people that come through everyday with the same issue. Paulette is fantastic.“

“In fact, the place is more for takeout. However, there are 3 tables outside where you can stop by and eat there.

The food is very light and tasty. They have a medium version if you think the medium version is too much food.

They also serve chicken broth as a side dish.

It was great for me because I just wanted something light and nutritious.

The girls provided great service since I didn't know all the dishes at the restaurant, so The Marina was a good option.“

Very nice people and very good food, although if we're honest I would probably avoid the rice bowls as they are a bit torn. Get the tacos and I'll have to try the BBQ chips, but I think they'll be delicious“
