    This was our 1st time at the Rooster and it won't be our last! We came in for breakfast with some bloody 's and it was great but we also saw a lot of lunch plates going to other tables (i.e. club sandwiches, wraps, burgers, ect) and they all looked good. Our servers were prompt & friendly. The atmosphere is warm & cozy and if you come in for lunch they have a full service bar for beer and drinks. Oh yeah, Prices are very affordable. Overall, I give a solid 4 stars!

    Lobster omelette
    Danielle K.

    My husband and I went to breakfast at Golden rooster restaurant today. On our way to leave Maine and we took a chance at this spot. I looked everywhere online and couldn't find a menu so we just decided to try it. I'm very glad we did. It's very busy on a Tuesday morning. The waitress was very nice and helpful. My husband had lobster omelette. He needed to have that lobster everywhere we went in Maine. lol. It was delicious and there was a good amount of lobster for omelette. I had the Florentine Benedict. It was delicious. I really like the hollandaise sauce and the flavors as well as the home fries. The home fries were lightly seasoned enough so it wasn't bland or Overpowering. . I one of my eggs was cooked to medium. However, the flavor was so good. It didn't bother me . I definitely recommend trying this restaurant out if you're in the neighborhood.

    Crepes, eggs, bacon

    Crepes were very good and the eggs were perfectly cooked. The coffee was average. For $14 I would've liked to bigger strips of bacon. Great dining experience everyone was friendly and kept our drink filled!

    It was worth the wait in the rain! Food was delicious! Staff was inviting and friendly. They know what they are doing at this establishment! Simple yet perfectly cooked food!

    The wait was 45+ minutes and unfortunately it was pouring rain and there's no where to wait inside the very small restaurant but we waited due to the high ratings we figured it's be worth the wait and overall it was. Just as a fyi: Parking wasn't as bad as we thought it might be bc there were a few lots behind the restaurant with parking available to the public. I don't think the restaurant has its own parking and with it being located along a main road with only a few spots in front of the restaurant itself we weren't sure if parking was going to be an issue. In terms of atmosphere it's a small place loud and crowded on the day we went. Lots of larger parties of families and a small counter of regulars/singles. Once we were sat the waitstaff was fast and friendly. Our food came out quickly and everyone in our group was happy with the quality of the food and the portion size. I had the cheese omelette which was yummy and I thought the home fries were flavorful and well cooked. Several members of our group got the breakfast sandwiches and thought those were delicious and the little ones with us loved their pancakes and scrambled eggs. We'd definitely return when in Saco again.

    Lobster roll and fries.
    Shaleah T.

    I went to the Golden Rooster on a recent stay in old Orchard Beach Maine. Walking in instantly, I noticed that the place was crowded because there was live music. There was lots of talking and mingling and people don't move when they literally see you walking in but even through all the people we were greeted immediately as we walked in. This is definitely a bonus. This is not always the case when you walk into a small town family owned restaurant. We sat down, received menus, and were asked if we wanted water right away. The server was kind,efficient, and helpful. I had the lobster roll and french fries. It was also wing night so we tried some of the Caribbean jerk wings as well as the garlic parmesan wings. My husband ordered the shepherds pie and haddock bites which he liked. My lobster roll was a decent portion for the price and it was sweet. They made it exactly as I asked...all I want is the lobster and the bread. Spare me with all the extras. The wings were cooked to perfection fried with a rub added or fried with the wet sauce added and you couldn't beat the $.75 per wing. We picked a good night to go. Overall the experience was pretty good. I will name that my husband and I were the only two Black people in the whole restaurant and at times we could feel it. The stares were plentiful, but it never felt unsafe or unwelcoming. If you're ever up the Old Orchard area I would say go for a visit grab the lobster roll and make sure you go on a Thursday so you can get those discount wings.

    Breakfast

    Typical breakfast lunch and now dinner establishment. The have a small bar as well as beers if you so choose. They have quite an extensive menu, no matter which meal you're having. We usually go for breakfast which comes out quick and like you ordered it. I really enjoy their French toast and platter breakfast. You can't go wrong here, no matter what you choose. Stephen Tyler from Aerosmith used to frequent this place as much as we do! The have a small outdoor dining section and larger inside dining area to suite whoever you'd like to be! Check them out they're a nice little place to have a quick diner like meal!

    This is such a great spot in downtown Biddeford.

Love space is actually quite lovely and very clean and welcoming. I was greeted right when i came in and was helped with all my questions by the nice gentleman. He recommended some dishes and he did not steer me wrong! I opted for the feta fries, the chicken rice bowl with pita, the dolmades, and the baklava. Everything was delicious and so fresh tasting. Get all the side sauces (tzatziki, hummus, garlic dip) they are so good and you can tell they are made in house. The chicken in the bowl i got was cooked perfectly and so fresh. The feta fries are such a fun addition as well as the dolmades since i had been wanting to try those! The baklava is a perfect sweet end to the meal you can't miss. What a great experience - it's worth noting how fast the can put together your order as well. I would also love to mention that a delivery driver came in and the man made him food to take with him which was extremely sweet. As someone who works in a similar industry i know how rare it is when you come across someone who thanks their delivery drivers like this man did. This is a must try spot!!!!

We were able to get a table without a reservation on a Saturday night and enjoyed sitting at our outdoor table and chatting, but were unimpressed with the service and value of food and drinks. I was with three friends and we were not overly hungry so we decided to order one order of chicken souvlaki (skewers) and one order of steak skewers ($28 and $29). We were shocked when the order came out and each order came with one single skewer with three pieces of meat (three steak tips, three pieces of chicken) and one skewer with 6 vegetable pieces around an inch in size. Very surprised with the amount of food for the price and we were not incredibly impressed with the taste of the food either. It seemed that those around us were ordering pasta dishes and fish dishes, and maybe those are better options to try, but we expected a skewer plate with rice to be a classic and safe bet.

    Ok here is a warning about my review - I am 100% Greek and I grew up in my family's Greek…read morerestaurant. So I know a thing or two about Greek food. I have strong opinions and I know what I'm used to eating when it comes to the "food of the Gods" as I call Greek cuisine. For that reason, I have waited a long time to eat at the Greeks of Peaks. I just did not want to be disappointed. Well, to be honest, I was NOT disappointed!!! The Greeks of Peaks serves up some really good Greek food with the requisite amount of lemon, oregano and familiar Greek deliciousness!!! Bravo to the other Greeks of Peaks!!! I will be back and I give it a strong recommendation indeed without any native Greek reservation! The customer service was friendly and good as well. Those women keep a smile on their faces while turning out some very good food! And all in a truck too! It is mind boggling to me that only 3 people can cook up such good food, serve it up in a friendly and fast way and create a happy dining experience, all while working in a small truck in an outside dining room. Okay okay since I am reviewing this establishment AND since I am Greek, I will have some thoughts on some things. The serving containers are too flimsy. They should be sturdier and, I think, larger. For the prices, I did want more food. But the cardboard containers soaked up too much of the dressing and the delicious oils - I was worried they wouldn't last through my meal. Also I did not like the forks at all. Please - parakalo - give me better utensils for my next meal with you! I look forward to many more great Greek meals with the Greeks of Peaks!!! And I encourage you to visit this very special place too!

The chicken souvlaki, Greek salad and lamb burger were all excellent. Fresh ingredients and delicious flavors. The dolmas and the fried cheese were just ok. They work really hard and when they get slammed it can take a while, but it's worth the wait.
