Rooster’s has some of the best chicken in the Jackson area. One of my favorites is the Smothered Chicken and Grits.

I’ve recently been encouraging my 9yo daughter to speak more, so I let her order her own meal. The waitress was very patient and kind and even gave my daughter props for ordering her own food. We didn’t have to wait long for our food and they checked in on us to make sure we were OK. I can’t get that kind of service anywhere else these days so it was very appreciated.

Parking can be tricky. Interesting place. Friendly staff and fast service. It was fairly busy during my recent lunch visit. I opted for chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes and white gravy with a side of green beans. Sweet tea was delicious! My meal was good but probably wouldn’t order it again. CFS was flavorful but the meat was chewy. Other sides were good. I saw other people ordering hamburgers and they looked amazing! That’s probably what I should have gotten.

Roosters has been a staple for me for manny years. It is my go-to place for a hamburger! The jalapeño cheddar bun is where it is at!! It is not very spicy, just the occasionally twang of a bit of jalapeño. The chicken mushroom Swiss is also good. Two unsung heroes that don’t get enough air time are the red beans and rice AND the tomato chicken cutlet. That tomato gravy is next level!

I decided to come make a review based on our experience here. First, let me say that I’ve seen many 5 star reviews, so idk if maybe we just got the wrong food to try or what. We had to travel down to Jackson for a son to have a surgical procedure done. We decided to pick up some food from here on our way back home. When I first went inside to pick up our order, I seen that the restaurant was overwhelming busy. My first initial thought was, “the food must be good then.” Boy was I wrong. When I finally got up there to pay for my food the lady told me my total was $26. I handed her $40 and asked where the restroom was. She told me where it was and handed me $3 in change. I didn’t say anything about it at first and went straight to the restroom. The restroom is quite trashy, as well. The soap isn’t put into the dispenser, it’s laid on top of the changing station for infants, the roll of paper towels is also displayed on top of the changing station, then the other paper towel dispenser is barely hanging on the wall and propped on top of the paper towel dispenser. This is a safety hazard for any moms taking their infants to the restroom to be changed. Anyway, I go back to get the food and ask the cashier for my receipt, so I can check the total considering what she recently said and the change returned. The total was actually $36, which was fine, but I wish I wouldn’t have been given the incorrect total. I take the food and go back out to the car to eat, since our child was still asleep and recovering from surgery. As soon as we get to the car, we start digging into the food. My husband and I both ordered the hamburger steak. I got curly fries and macaroni and cheese for my sides. My husband got butter fries and rice and gravy. Also, when I called the order in I asked about a kids menu for chicken tenders and the lady told me that they offered a “snack box” with 2 chicken tenders and fries. Each meal also came with rolls. Let me just say that NONE of the food had any seasoning. Our fries were soggy and tasted like straight grease. Also, I didn’t see any difference between the regular curly fries and the butter fries. The rolls were basic and just tasted like plain rolls. The macaroni and cheese had literally no cheese on it. The gravy and rice had no flavor. My husband took one bite and was done. The hamburger steaks were also plain; we used the salt and pepper packets to add flavor to the hamburger steaks. They also didn’t have much gravy on them either. The onions were good though. It was the only thing that was good. The chicken strips were also plain. When I checked the receipt, I was shocked to see that the 2 chicken strips and fries we ordered for my kid that were considered a “snack box” were $9. To say we were disappointed is an understatement. There were so many people in the restaurant hyping it up and complimenting the food. I’m not sure if these people just don’t have taste buds or if we were just served below standard food. We had a 4 hour drive to Jackson, hadn’t eaten anything all day and decided to try Roosters out and we were beyond disappointed.

I recently placed a large order, and I can’t brag enough about how polite and well-organized Rooster’s staff were! The order was delivered perfectly, and the food was amazing. They also went a step further and organized each meal by number, so it was super easy to pass out everyone’s plates!

Eat here every time I’m in town. The food is always good. Never had a bad meal or experience. The prices are on par with any other restaurant. Country fried steak and red beans and rice never disappoint.

Best burger joint I’ve eaten at in Mississippi. Great prices, generous portions, friendly staff, and the burgers are well seasoned. Can’t wait to come back!
