I Love it. Smothered Chicken and Waffles? What more do you need? The Hollywood location has many celeb sightings, but the Pasadena location is much larger and the food quality is the same... superb! More

The food really isn't that great and the service is even worse. I didn't like being accosted by street vendors trying to sell me incense, knock off jerseys and boot leg DVDs and CD's. I think the people who say the food here is great are the ones who can't cook! More

Too small, congested and busy. Slow down Roscoe's... people want your food, but will pass if they have to deal with congestion, confusion and poor service. Mama tried to make it work for me and my guest, but all and all.... Roscoe's deserves to be remembered for the food not the frustration. More

My family went here for lunch along with her basketball team. They were able to accomodate the team in 10 minutes with no notice. This was our first time there and the service was great. I had chicken wings with a big waffle. We also had a side of fries and a side of mac and cheese. The fries were... More

There are a lot of famous restaurants that are cultural icons. However, that doesn't always guarantee good food. However, with Roscoe's you need not worry. The food there is down-home cooking that coats your insides and makes you leave with a smile on your face. I had the famous chicken and waffles, plus a yummy drink called an eclipse (lemonade,...

I looooove Roscoe's. I don't eat there often because, let's face it, the food will kill you eventually, but it's so worth it once in a while. The lemonade is amazing. If you like good homemade lemonade, this is it. It is not super sugary, but also not too tart.I'm hard pressed to think of anything better. My favorite thing... More
