The rate is 4.5 not 4 but google doesn’t do in between. Had a great experience at Roosters! We tried the smothered chicken and grits with mac & cheese, and the Nacho Burger with butter fries; overall, we were really impressed.
The smothered chicken and grits were the standout: flavorful, perfectly seasoned, and super comforting. The Nacho Burger didn’t even need sauce—packed with flavor, and that jalapeño bun you could taste the freshness but wasn’t as spicy as I thought which was a good thing because my partner doesn’t like too spicy. The butter fries were just as good as they smelled (which was amazing), buttery and crispy can taste the garlic and chives.
The mac & cheese was the only slight letdown but even that was decent, but didnt compared to the rest of the dishes.
For dessert, we had the banana pudding, and it tasted fresh and homemade. Loved it!
Big shoutout to Mya—she was absolutely lovely, gave great recommendations, and made me feel so welcomed. Service like hers definitely makes me want to come back whenever we touch down in Jackson, MS.
Thanks, Roosters team.

If you're in Jackson, come here to eat and enjoy good old-fashioned food. The red beans and rice are delicious, along with a big fresh loaf of bread. My kiddos enjoy the Mac and cheese with green beans and homemade cookies! The service was not rushed, even though we came late, and the staff was excited to serve us. We left with happy bellies! Oh, and try the burgers, as they are juicy and warm! Refilled our drinks and made sure we left happy!

Love the chicken strips with onion rings. Lots on menu is tasty, but be careful with sides, not often included and jacks up cost.

Everything we ordered was absolutely excellent. Very helpful and knowledgeable server. I just thought i didn't like grits....life changing.

We had an amazing lunch at Roosters in Jackson, Mississippi. The food was absolutely delicious—every bite was full of flavor, and the portions were generous. You definitely get your money's worth!
A special shoutout to Ms. Clark, who took our order and served us with genuine kindness and warmth. She went above and beyond, taking time to share stories and local insights about Jackson that made our visit even more special. Her hospitality truly made us feel at home.
The service was quick, and our meals came out hot and fresh. We highly recommend Roosters to anyone looking for great food, excellent service, and a welcoming atmosphere. This place is a gem!

Grilled chicken sandwich good and service, but the smoke from kitchen was really bad
Noisy atmosphere. The hamburger was delicious but I didn't care for the onion rings or fries. Pricey. $35 for 2 at lunch.

I ordered some curly french fries only. What the he'll is this? Horrible. They are so hard, and cooked in old grease. I can't believe you let something go out like this. Never again. Abd rgen went straight to the bathroom. In my opinion the health dept needs to be called. I shouldn't immediately go to the bathroom right after eating with a messed up stomach. And I didn't even eat all of it it I threw most of it in the garage. Where it belonged.
I've been a cook in a chef for many years way before I knew people were actually making money off of YouTube. I'm going to start making sure I take pictures. Roosters my daughter and I placed an online pickup order it was about 12 to15 minutes drive we made it there in about 15-20 minutes. We just wanted to try them all the food was barely warm microwave everything. The food was bland had no taste no seasoning that old cafeteria gravy I was shocked and disappointed. The garlic fries nothing garlic and buttery about them all their food was bland and no good and cold. When I saw how they package the sides stains food particles all over the containers they didn't bother wipe off. This food could have been better if the person that fixed their cared. This order was probably about $50 and no we will not be back we called they were closed we didn't want anything else this is going to affect them more. Horrible service the food they didn't care about it didn't season no Love you ought to be ashamed of yourself as far as the owner. If you have people in your kitchen that don't care how the food go out shame on you. Everything was literally microwaved lukewarm never mind the pictures online it looks better than what it taste like very disappointing and shocking after 15-20 after ordering online and then coming in we had to wait for our food for everything was cold or lukewarm. And a nasty presentation stains all over the boxes it look nasty like the person didn't even care when he bagged it up. The garlic fries you don't put anything on them so it tastes like regular fries horrible cook whoever thinks this food has no business being in the kitchen. By the way we order Salisbury steak chicken strips hamburger chicken sandwich regular fries and garlic fries immediately I started tasting I was hungry every fry was cold they had the nerve enough not to give us the garlic fries we went back no taste. Because Jackson Mississippi and Atlanta does such a poor job at answering their phones when you order. If you want to return or get your food remade without calling the corporate office. People here so petty and cheap they think you want something for free they don't realize a negative review affects them more. Now I get 50 60,000 reviews what I don't respect is they never try to make it right and send you these stupid responses online instead of making it right with the customer.

We decided to stop for lunch. It didn’t disappoint! The servers were nice and friendly. The food was fantastic, had flavor, impressed with the crunchiness. I will say, the chicken was not piping hot when it arrived but it was appreciated so we could dig into the food. Fries were crunchy, cheesy grits are highly recommended along with red beans and rice.
