Rooster's Cafe - Dahlonega

Stopped here for lunch as we wait to pick up our RV Trailer from Camp Oaks RV. Waitress was Johnny on the spot when we sat down. I had the Rooster Dog with Sauerkraut and Chili, comes with Fries. Chili was good, dog was good could use a smaller bun to put it on. Also the sauerkraut comes in a plastic serving container and it is cold. You have to take two bites to get all the ingredients to meld together. Smaller bun and it would all come together. My wife had the grilled chicken strip salad and enjoyed it was enough for two people. Nice place overall plenty of TV's for watching sporting events.

What you'd expect from a southern, local favorite....lots of fried foods and unhealthy options. Service is polite. Ambiance is okay, occasional sticky table and somewhat unclean but, again, kinda expected in a southern diner style restsurant. 3-star for food quality and overall experience.

As a wing connoisseur and a ATLien. The hot flavored wings are some of the best wings I've ever tasted. The flavor stands out it's not just about heat. I love that you get celery with your wings. What's wings without celery!

Roosters has been a thing for years in the area. They have great wings and great flavors. I will say, their wings run a bit smaller but they pack a punch. I don 't know what they do to season their wings but they are above and beyond your typical deep fried wings like Buffalo Wild Wings if you catch me. Their dips (ranch and blue cheese) is made in house fresh and always SLAPS. I always ask for extra, then use more the next day. I have only dined in a few times when I lived there, but recently get togo when I happen to be in the area. I now live out of state, but go out of my way to get wings from here. Specially medium and Cajun mixed. I 'd suggest adding a side of hot, because medium is not very spicy. More of a mild to me. The service is always wonderful. It is a very country living type place, that makes me feel connected to my roots hahah. I actually had a friend who use to work there and she had nothing but good things to say.

Great fries!!! Amazing people! The food and wings are so good! Definitely a great stop!
