Roscoe's House Of Chicken N Waffles

Came for the hunch and stayed for the show. such a funny night out. eating was great, scoe’s

My husband and I ate here on a recent quick weekend getaway to Long Beach and LOVED IT!! While it may not be the fanciest joint in town, the food is delicious and had us wanting to come back every day! While we're west coasters now, we lived in the South (North Carolina) for several years and aren't strangers to chicken and waffles. I've also eaten at Willie Mae's in New Orleans which has arguably the best fried chicken in the world and this chicken (and these waffles) gave any I've ever had a run for their money! The service was fast and friendly and the price was reasonable. I ordered the Carol C. Special with a side salad and a biscuit (which was plenty for me) and my husband order the Scoe's with a side of grits which ended up being slightly more than he could eat. The salad, grits and biscuit were good, but definitely didn't hold a candle to the chicken waffles. I was really surprised that they were this good coming from a chain, but I speak truth! I can definitely recommend!

Good comfort food that touches the soul! And chicken Waffles is the perfect combination in my book. Nice soft waffles and crispy hot fried chicken. Delicious!

What can I say, whenever visiting Long Beach, one of our goals was to check out Roscoes for their chicken n waffles and that's exactly what we did. It was a pretty large establishment and quite dated, but, we went for the food and not the ambience. Our order came pretty quick and it the chicken was moist and quite oily, and the waffles were more crunchy than I would have liked. But all in all it wasn't all that bad. I would have done 3.5 stars, but since there aren't half stars, I rounded up because of it's history.

I spent over $100 and to be honest the food was just okay. I ordered the banana pudding which had old browned pieces of bananas in it. The red velvet cookies were hard and no one liked them. Customer service was nonexistent. I would be a lot more welcoming to any customer but especially if you’re spending over $100. I was excited to try because of all the hype but I was slightly disappointed.
