    We got there 30 minutes early and even though the place was not busy, they made us sit on the bar to wait. The oxtail was very good, I would have like more plantains on it. The banana pudding was sweet but delicious! The music was a bit loud but the atmosphere was great. The service was excellent, our waitress always checked on us.

    Made a reservation for 5 for a birthday celebration over a week ago and when we arrived they wanted to seat us outside after I requested inside the hostess said I requested outside on the reservation but I did not and when the manager looked at the reservation it only said birthday celebration. Even though there were many available tables they seated 5 people at a table for 4 stating all other tables were reserved except if we wanted to sit in the bar at a high top. I said we have a reservation don’t understand why they couldn’t seat us at an appropriate table and we took the high top . The manager was extremely rude, discourteous and indifferent and had we not been there for a birthday celebration we would have walked out. Fortunately the food was good recommend the cornbread, deviled eggs, chicken and waffles and oxtail benedict. Our server Pedro was very good as well. The Sunday Gospel music by Maryel Epps was delightful. We were there for over two hours the restaurant did not get full and the tables we had asked to be moved to when we were seated never had any customers. Cannot understand in this economy and with the competitiveness of restaurants for repeat clientele why we were treated so badly. Have to think twice about going back.

    The waitress mentioned the chef “doesn’t like” substitutions, which is fair but could’ve been worded differently. She also removed plates before confirming if we’re were finished. Restaurant was beautiful inside but outdoors needed some TLC, such as shampooing the fabric cushions or replacing it with an easier to clean material. The Miami Millshake drink was incredible! Food was just good. For southern food Yardbird is much better.

    Hi there, Thank you for sharing your thoughts about your recent visit to Red Rooster Overtown. We appreciate your compliments on the Miami Milkshake and our restaurant's interior, but we're sorry to hear that some aspects didn't meet your expectations. We apologize if the communication about our chef's policy on substitutions came off as less than accommodating and for the oversight in clearing your plates too hastily. We strive to offer a fantastic dining experience, and your input is invaluable in helping us enhance our service and environment. Thank you once again, and we hope to have the opportunity to impress you more fully in the future. Warmly, The Red Rooster Overtown Team

    I hate to write this. But man was this visit was completely underwhelming. Went for a work dinner based on an experience I had a couple years ago. Restaurant was pretty empty, which is ok. But I don’t know if they changed chefs or what, but all the plates we ordered with the exception of the corn bread and jerk chicken were just bad (we tried 8-9 different dishes). I had to apologize to my work colleagues for the experience. I hope they can turn it around.

    Food and drinks were perfectly prepared and delicious. The restaurant itself is gorgeous. The staff was friendly and professional. A few minor quibbles: - the staff was slightly TOO attentive… they checked in with us 6-8 times over the course of our meal, when 4-5 times would have been plenty. - Entree and dessert portions were HUGE - substantially too huge, in fact. The two of us could have shared a single entree and a single dessert and still walked away pleasantly stuffed. - it was a little pricey. Dinner and desert for two, including starters and 1 drink each plus tax and tip, was $255 dollars. (If the servings sizes were more in line with what a normal human can eat in one sitting, the prices could be more in line as well.) I would love to visit this place again… but next time order half as much food.

    Amazing just about covers it for our visit. We arrived early for our reservation at 6:00 PM. We were seated immediately by a lovely hostess, full of energy, and very happy. Our waitress Maria arrived shortly after being seated. Another smiling, happy face. Very friendly throughout our visit. We ordered a chardonnay and a biscayne bay IPA. We ordered the Florida City crabcake. This was not very heavy, a mango jam, Corn Chow Chow, Plantain Chips. Oh my, this was great flavor and textures with the crunchy chips and the soft crab, just wow. For our entree, she had the Roasted Boneless Branzino Collard Green Chimmichuri, Roasted HeirloomTomatoes, Grilled Lemon. She absolutely loved this delicious entree. It was cooked and prepared perfectly. I had the Red Shrimp & Grits Azar Andouille Sausage, Garlic Confit, Sun Dried Tomatoes, Tomato Shrimp Broth, and Creamy Grits. The spice throughout was a very pleasant tasting spicy heat. The grits, perfect and the flavors, came together very nicely. I could not finish my grits as it was a bit much in quantity. I had to leave room for dessert, the blackberry cobbler, and yes, it was just as amazing as the rest of our meal. If we lived here, we would be coming here regularly.

    Red Rooster is a great dining experience right near the heart of downtown Miami.

    I had called to inquire about live music at Sunday brunch, and while the response was no, we were pleasantly surprised to hear not only an amazing gospel singer but a live band!!! Starting at 12 pm. The sax was soo good and overall the music was inspiring and the highlight of our visit. The food is authentic, hard to avoid carbs and fat, but a bite once onna whole is ok, right? Recommend sharing mains and adding a few classic sides like corn bread and creamy grits with cheese. The vibe is chill and outside is quieter. Loved and will go back!

    Surprisingly well designed, a sort of upscale vision of Caribbean meets Soul Food eatery. The staff could not have been more friendly. The service was quick and efficient. And the Yard Bird (i.e. Fried Chicken) deserves an award. Fun and elegant, yet down to earth. And the Lyric Theater is right across the street!

We strive to provide a unique and enjoyable dining experience, and it's great to know we hit the mark for you with our fun and elegant yet down to Earth vibe! It was our pleasure to host you and we hope you will join us again the next time you see a show at the Lyric. Cheers! The Red Rooster Overtown Team

    I went to Red Rooster for lunch with my husband and I must say we had a wonderful experience. We were greeted and seated with no wait and were very nicely attended. I wanted to order a glass of beer but wasn´t sure which one to choose, so our kind waiter brought a small portion for me to try first. We ordered the corn bread which was perfect, the crab cake that was delicious and on point, and the cuban sandwich that had an amazing twist. We will most definitely come back!

    We had a reservation but others without reservations were seated before us. And we waited 30+ minutes for a waiter to come to our table for service!

    "I love the relaxed feel of this place – like a comfortable dining room in a friends home. I definitely would return to try more dishes. The potato-leek soup was amazing and the Bibb lettuce salad was refreshing. The table was split on the monkfish – one person thought it was great, but another felt that the tastes didn't quite mesh. Everyone loved the flat iron steak. Service was well-timed and friendly, wines were affordable."

    Brunch was delicious! Drinks were amazing too! When we got there it was a little loud because they had a saxophone player and someone was singing, they put on a great show!!!!! The restaurant itself is beautiful! I’d say the only con was that it took about an hour for our food to come out.
