Our wait staff was friendly, quick, accommodating, and very respectful of the fact we had a small child. I didn’t have to ask for my daughter’s food to come out early the waitress had already planned it out to perfection. We enjoy spending special occasions at this place.

When I entered the restaurant I really liked the decoration, the atmosphere and the service. The food were incredible! What I liked the most was the Paloma that they prepared for us and for dessert they had a nice gesture with my husband for his birthday. Thank you very much!

Had a great visit to Rooster's Ballantyne. We were glad to try this out as we really like the South Park location. We were not disappointed. The restaurant is very nice, but comfortable. The food was excellent. We went in on their brunch menu and it was very thorough with lots of options. The serving sizes were very generous. The parking at the Ballantyne Bowl can be a bit tricky, but was not too bad. We are excited to have Roosters close by and will plan to be back frequently.

Our first time here for our anniversary and it blew us out of the water! Melissa was tremendous, personable and professional. The oysters, NY Strip, fingerling potatoes, brussel sprouts, and mac n cheese were spectacular. The crab cakes were the best crab cakes we’ve ever had! They gave us the Oak chocolate cake for our anniversary on the house and it was amazing. 10/10 recommend for food, service, and everything in between. We will be back soon!
