“The pulled pork was very good and the Polish sausage was excellent. The potato salad was also quite good. I tried all of the sauces and they were fine. I don't love BBQ sauce (BBQ sauce is good for covering bad meat). Their meat doesn't need it.“

“The fried chicken here is juicy and delicious! Basically you walk in, order at a kiosk, seat yourself, and they call your number when your order is ready. Very easy to order and understand the menu at the kiosk. Digitizing their ordering service though creates an environment where tables aren’t turned over necessarily. Lots of syrupy/saucy/sticky meals leads to a pretty sticky table and floors. The food, however, was phenomenal. We got the smashville sandwich and chicken w/ French toast and both were 10/10 on flavor and portion size! The kitchen staff was working hard and pumping orders out quickly. They all had a smile on their face too. Would recommend if you’re craving fried chicken!“

“Having been a server for almost 10 years, it is very difficult for me to be blown away by service I recieve while dining. Susan absolutely put it down! Not only was she completely on point with timing of everything- drink almost done? She's there asking if you're ready for another. Just finished your last bite of bread? Here she comes with more for the table- but she is EXTREMELY knowledgeable about the menu, helping guide you through the flavors present and explaining not only what features in a dish, but how it will taste and feel. I CANNOT say enough about how professional and amazing she was. Then, not only was the service top-notch, but every single bite of every dish absolutely DELIEVERED! We ordered the venison carpaccio, and Susan was able to describe all the sauces and flavors on the dish, so we were able to try the venison with each, knowing it would tweak the overall flavor in different ways. It came highly recommended by a friend and did not disappoint. I got the waygu stuffed quail for my entree and my husband got the sea scallops catch of the day, and the portions were amazing for both- giant scallops, a half a quail that perfectly filled me up, along with amazing waygu cheek stuffed in the quail. Not only were the proteins perfectly cooked and flavored, but even the sides to each dish complemented the proteins beautifully and were DELICIOUS. Not a single thing could I or would I want to change. 100% worth every penny spent for an amazing date night, and we will absolutely book another reservation to return!Parking: Go early to ensure you can find parking, or catch an Uber or Lyft“

“Our first time coming in here and I must say I wasn't disappointed but I wasn't impressed. For our appetizer we had the southern egg rolls which were delicious, but the fact that 1 order is just 1 egg roll cut in half for 8 dollars in my opinion is a bit much, so we ordered 2. Next the mains, my wife ordered the baked chicken with Mac and cheese and cabbage, the baked chicken was very juicy but over seasoned, the Mac and cheese was decent but that cabbage was just way to sweet for our liking. Myself I ordered the shrimp and grits w/ bacon. Flavor wise I thought it was perfect but when I asked the hostess was it supposed to be that cold she picked up the plate and said "well the bottom of the plate is warm". Not trying to make a big stink out of it I asked her to simply put it in the microwave, she came back with a fresh order but now forgot my bacon smh, once I asked my waiter for my bacon, another server stood off to the side analyzing my plate like I'm gonna lie over bacon. All in all I would recommend that if you haven't tried it yet please do so. Picture of shrimp and grits was the first order before i asked for another“

I got the Mac n cheese which was smoky and very flavorful and the brisket sandwhich was very tender had a good ratio of fat to meat and a simple but delicious rub. Seating is a bit limited for bigger parties but the owner is very attentive and even gave my friend advice on smoking his own meat.“

“The Roosevelt is one of my go to places cause it’s close to me and I love everything about it. My favorite dish there is the pork butt and I will have to tell you when I went two nights ago I ordered it and the collard greens that comes with it were so salty they were inedible. I’ve never had that problem before and I’m just hoping that our server let the chef know to be a little lighter on the salt. They were so salty that it took away from the taste of the collard greens. Otherwise everything’s wonderful.“

“I got the Chicken Fiesta soup and the Jalapeño Holly chicken salad…it was my first time there. I was not at all impressed with the soup! It was MUSHY and Watery….however; The chicken salad was very flavorful….I didn’t have to add any pepper or salt (lol) and I ate every drop! It made up for the soup I had to trash…..AND I’m a picky eater! It was pretty good for the first time (and I’m basing that off of the chicken salad alone) - I will definitely try again though…but not the soup.“

I will in the future looking at what Waitress/Waiter are working and ask if we can be seated in their area if possible. I know I have seen several new faces. I have had two Christmas Breakfast and they have been very very nice and had the same Waitress both years. Looking forward to Christmas Breakfast this year. Thanks Ed Taylor“
