Stopped in for lunch before grocery shopping next door and had an amazing experience. The owner is…read moresuper friendly and you can tell he takes great pride in the business and the food they serve. While I am not the biggest burger fan, I always make exceptions for smash burgers so I was excited to try the classic combo. It was delicious and had just the right amount of everything. The fries are also excellent, with a great seasoning. I opted to dine in today; the dining area was quiet, well maintained, and clean. I was told to come back and try the brisket, and there are so many other things I want to try, so I'll be back soon!

This place is tucked in the corner of an old downtown building in Utica which adds to its charm. They serve lunch daily until 2pm

The place is conveniently located near the Utica hospital.

If you're in Old Forge or even passing through Utica, Rooster's is absolutely worth the stop.

There is a counter to the left as you come in, followed by an unattractive cooler case with signs on it. In between is a bakery case that is small but had a nice selection when I was there. I ordered a cup of decaf and a small chocolate almond cupcake, for a price of $8. I declined the plastic box and sat down with the cupcake in an upholstered chair opposite the counter. I thought my coffee would be right up but it took many minutes. I almost left. The cupcake was small but good (fluffy cake, sugary frosting). Then I noticed the sign that said everything was gluten and dairy-free. Surprise! When the coffee was ready, the cream was put in for me. I guess it was nondairy. The coffee was warm like a keurig makes. I had noticed Lunch menus in a wall pocket and Brunch menus behind the counter. So this place is actually full restaurant for people with gluten and dairy allergies. The lunches all seemed to cost ~$18 and seemed inventive. Fries were available as a specialty. There were a lot of tables in the long, cool, dark room. It seemed like a decent place to have an undisturbed meal while talking with friends.

Their menu consists of delicious American flair options. I truly don't think you could go wrong with any appetizer or entree of your choosing. For our starter we ordered the fried meatballs, fried cheese curds and the tomato & burrito plate. Every single dish was wonderful! For our entrees we chose the chicken katsu and their scallops. The chicken katsu was flavorful, juicy, breaded perfectly and topped with the most delicious sauce I've ever had on a chicken sandwich. My dinner date stated the scallops were cooked to perfection! We ended our evening with dessert & cocktails and as you can imagine from this review they were also very delicious! I would also like to highlight our waitress Mia. She was very attentive, helpful and extremely kind. The entire staff were phenomenal! Manager included.

There was barely even anyone there maybe five people. Bartender came up to us and told us we had to move since she wasn't serving us. We explained the tables were dirty and she made someone clean it for us and then told us to move right after the tables were cleared, but not even wiped down yet. We also overheard her telling another patron to move down a seat so she has more room for the customers she did not have. Very rude couldn't imagine acting that way towards customers especially as a bartender myself. We ended up just getting our food to go once it came out. Wouldn't recommend coming whenever she's working bc she was so rude and awful.
