DAY OLD CHICKEN. I ordered two thighs, greens, and candied yams from the Roscoes on Pico for pick-up. The chicken was obviously left over from yesterday. It was hard and not edible. I’m a loyal customer. I am so disappointed in you Roscoes. Shame on you. I wouldn’t serve this chicken to my dog.
What a great experience! The staff was outstanding, the food came fast hot and delicious. So glad we came late night as it is a small location and I can just imagine it is packed during regular hours! Careful though as they say open till midnight but the last like 1.25 hours are carry out or delivery only.
Finally made it to the famous Roscoes Chicken and Waffles in LA. I waited so long to go to this restaurant. I have heard so much about it from friends and television of course. Let me first say I loved it! We drove by another location, but they were shooting a movie so we couldn’t go inside. I was like put me in as an extra. Lol. So we drove to the original location on Pico. The kids and I enjoyed chicken and waffles. My husband had greens and chicken. We loved the cornbread. The food was good to me, my husband and the boys. My daughter wasn’t a fan. The chicken was cooked to perfection and the waffles was sweet, just like I like it. I will say it’s not for everyone, but it’s worth the experience. I had to be fair and give 4 stars because my daughter felt they gave way too much butter and syrup which made the waffle soggy. She likes her waffles crunchy. So if that’s you then make sure you specify your preference.
Last place I ate at before leaving LA and it was the best. Fried chicken was excellent. Both juicy and crispy. Either the butter or the waffle had extra sweetness with a little hint of cinnamon. Waffle was good too. Loved their pepper sauce. Great prices, portions and staff. Would eat here weekly if I lived in LA.
Roscoe's Chicken & Waffles holds a special place in my heart. It always has and always will make you feel like you're at home. Everything is prepared with love and you feel it in every bite. My recommendation if it's your first time, get the #13 (waffle & breast) and ANY of the delicious sides (the macncheese is king tho). Grab a delicious sunrise, enjoy the music and have a blessed day.
After a night out at the movies there weren't too many late night food spots open for our midnight munchies. You can never go wrong with a delicious meal at this institution. We stopped by almost an hour before closing and I knew what I wanted to order. Fried chicken leg, one waffle, and a slice of corn bread with a scoop of butter on it. The food was delicious as always, the waffle wasn't as great as I remember but still good. The interior is a bit worn out but hey I'm here for the food and the staff were wonderful.
Visited on my recent trip to LA from Phoenix. My party and I had such a great meal. The atmosphere is chill and makes you feel right at home. I had the Thigh and Waffle and Mac and Cheese and another favorite (not listed on the menu) is the Chicken Chili Cheese Fries. Soooo tasty! Roscoe's never misses! Also, I have to say the music that was playing inside and outside of the restaurant was nostalgic, and just made the experience so much more memorable. Thank you!
Obviously the fried chicken strips with hotsauce dipped in maple syrup is the bomb. The greens also very tasty.
2.17.22 | Roscoe’s was delicious! No words can describe this yum moment. This was our first time going. FYI you need to have a vaccine card to get into the restaurant or other items. It was quaint but it felt very much like home. Our server was very knowledgeable and honest. We both ordered the #9 now called The Obama and my drink you must try!!!!!!! We also ordered a piece of sweet potato pie to go. Get in the van and go!
I have been to many Roscoe locations but this one is the worst !! It took over 20 min for a waiter to come and there were only 4 or 5 other parties in the restaurant. The food when it finally came after 20 to 30 more minutes was not very good to say the least … the waffles were hard, the chicken was not seasoned, the grits were too thick — in general I would have gladly skipped this meal !!! Extremely bad for any Roscoe’s experience … I absolutely do not recommend.
