Review Summary

Roasters earns praise for solid food and drinks, with many reviewers sticking to favorites like the spicy club wrap and a menu that includes smoked meat, wings, burgers, and chicken brochette, all served in generous portions at a casual, affordable setting. Service is described as friendly and attentive on some visits, and the cleanliness of the bathroom is often noted, though other experiences recount slow or inattentive service, miscommunications, and moments of rudeness or confusion. Several remarks center on inconsistent experiences: one visit had a flat draft beer and a confusing tipping device, another included a fire alarm disruption, and a few meals were criticized for bland sides, underseasoned potatoes, or overcooked chicken. Nevertheless, several reviewers emphasize fresh flavors, a standout homemade creole mustard sauce, and genuine hospitality that improves over time, with some patrons returning and reporting a better overall experience. Overall, Roasters seems to offer reliable comfort food and value, but results vary by visit and staff, so expectations should be day to day.

Twice I've come here & I am impressed by the food (fresh, very tasty, good portions), the warm hospitality (this time by Anissa & Jhita). I do recommend!

Food was pretty average, not great but not the worst either. The chicken was bland & dry. Service was slow despite very few customers on a Saturday night, & our waitress wasn't the most welcoming either. I'd recommend going elsewhere if possible, but it's adequate if you have to.

7 years ago, I gave this place a bad review because my experience was bad; I swore I'd never go back. After 7 years, I decided to give it another chance, I'm glad I did.
In the last 7 years, this place has greatly improved! The food is good, not fancy. The atmosphere is casual, prices are very affordable. The wait staff were very accommodating to me & my wheelchair.
I recommend the chicken brochette.

This is a very strange place, throwback to the eighties. Has a bar in there with older, semi drunken people. Gambling machines are the draw. Not expensive but a rundown atmosphere. Good for a few drinks & then the movies across the street. Their BBQ ribs are very good, I would recommend but light on the sauce as they can get messy otherwise.

We went here for my mother's 70th birthday, & it was absolutely a joke.
The "waitress" was dressed like she was going out to the club with some tight, revealing pants, & couldn't even be bothered to smile. She literally had like zero personality & didn't even acknowledge us or say hello.

Then we get our food & she never even came back to see if anything was okay. My father had to get up & grav some water off a nearby table & refill our glasses, because she obviously didn't care to. Then we were left sitting with our dirty plates for 10+ minutes before the "manager" came to "take over our service", since we were extremely disappointed.

That's where things took a turn for the worse, since he spilled water all over my step mother's phone, & then again all over her when he knocked her glass over. He was a nervous wreck & dropping everything & I'm surprised he didn't drop the cake we bought from them for her birthday, because we were pretty sure he would.

Then he just keeps saying he "understands" that we're disappointed in the service, & he agrees that the service sucks, but doesn't bother to offer any solution, & happily charges me full price for the meal after ruining a major birthday for my elderly mother.

This was extremely disappointing, & I definitely shouldn't have been charged full price for that kind of service.

We'll definitely know where not to go for upcoming events. I do not recommend this place at all.
