Amazing service 10/10 would recommend. This is the single greatest bar I have ever been to. I have never been to a greater bar in my entire life.

I visited Golden Roosters with my kids today and ordered the fried soy sauce garlic chicken and teriyaki chicken sandwiches. I was so surprised and it was so delicious! It tastes like authentic Korean fried chicken and was so crispy and juicy. The coleslaw salad was also really good, and the atmosphere and the service of the staff were very good. ?

The chicken wings are bomb af!! They have great service and large TVs to watch games. The owner was super cool and said in the summer they will have the patio open. It will be cool to watch mariner/seahawk games here!

Exceptional fried chicken - I’ve sampled most of their offerings and recommend their marinated soy garlic fried chicken wings, classic fried chicken sandwich and their mixed fried chicken (legs and thighs). Excellent Cole slaw as well along with French fries that are actually crispy. These folks know how to fry - deeply flavorful and tender chicken with a thin ultra crispy coating with a mild infusion of red pepper/hot sauce. Zero oil residue so they fry at the perfect temp and time. Look forward to trying their fish and chips. Great bar area (though I’m not a fan of giant TVs) and super attentive service. Street entrance area is a little off putting but once inside you’ll find a pleasant casual eatery staffed by a hardworking passionate team who are skilled in the kitchen.

Enjoyed a Spurs game before a Sounders game. Great chicken, good beer. Looking for a pre-game, this is the spot!

Amazing food! The taste of the chicken was amazing, and the potstickers and sauce that accompanied them were the best I've had. I had ginger soy wings that were excellent, chicken was crispy on the outside, but super juicy, and the sauce was next level. Super friendly staff, would highly recommend, and would come again when visiting Seattle.

Definitely on the spicy side, so don't expect otherwise. Fresh and delicious. Great options. Good beer selection.

Run! do not walk... to the best chicken place in Seattle! Had the most delicious, crispy, flavorful chicken in quite sometime at the new Golden Roosters in downtown Seattle. Fun atmosphere! Can't wait for all the great sports events at Lumen and T-Mobile stadium next to the Roosters!

Severely understaffed. I waited at the bar for 15 minutes and there were only two people in front of me. We then waited half an hour for an order of chicken strips that never showed up. Most of the tables were full of dirty dishes and garbage as bussing was non existentWe had to leave to get to the Sounders match, and the bartender was very very kind and helpful in getting the charge for the food that never came taken off. The front line staff seems great. This experience is a management and operational procedures failure. Don’t take it out on the bartenders.

I want this place to be successful. The neighborhood needs it and the food is pretty good. But they still have some work to do. First of all, during game/match days, they were overwhelmed. One cook, a bartender, a server, and expediter (I think?), was not enough for a pre-Sounders match rush. Individually, they were all nice people, but not set up for success. Guest at tables waited for service, some for quite awhile. Walk ins wandered to the cook's line trying to place an order; he was busy and was there was little to inform folks where to go or what to do. It was chaos. We waited patiently, placed our order, but when we finally got our check, the total was a lot more than we had anticipated. I had to ask for an itemized bill with all the charges, and there was a weird one for "check over $100." We were no where near that amount. When asked, they brought the bartender out who explained it was an automatic 20% gratuity applied for each check on game days. I can understand six or more people at a table, but we had two people in our party. The autograt wasn't printed on the menu, or anywhere in the dining area, but allegedly, it was in the bar in the back, according to the bartender, (I could not verify this). I asked that charge be removed and she said it couldn't be done because "it's a new system and the tech had left." This was unacceptable and eventually she was able to void the check and charge us the correct amount, presumably without the tech hustling back to fix the issue. I would try this place again, but be sure to review the charges before signing the check and manage your expectations if they are busy. Again, the people are very nice, but they are not yet set up for the demands of a busy game day at the stadiums. Hopefully that will change as they find their rhythm.

Decent Korean-style fried chicken, though it could be a little less dry. More of a sports bar type of feel, could use some sprucing up in front.
