Was very skeptical but was I wrong .. the Cuban sandwich was excellent I ate half of my wife's the Rockin Chicken was delicious only thing I'd change was make it all white meat . The sides were great I sure wished it less than a 2 1/2 drive one way but worth it .. do not let the older building sway you just stop .. place was clean and all were very friendly!! read more

If you haven't stopped in to try Rockin' Chicken, you are missing out. The service is amazing. The owner is so personable and makes you feel very welcomed. We have gotten take out and dined in. Everything we have tried has been extremely fresh and tasty! My date stated "This is the REAL finger lickin' good!" He also said that they have the best ribs he has ever had in a restaurant. I tasted them, they have char and great seasoning, he was not wrong. We have tried the roasted chicken, steak burrito bowl, loaded fries, green beans, and several sauces. Absolutely everything has been *chef's kiss* You need to check them out immediately! read more

The food was amazing! I had the Cuba Sandwich and my hubby had the sirloin steak. The place should be packed out every night. This family owned restaurant is friendly and has good music too! They also have a lunch menu for 9.99 with 10 different lunches. Cheeseburgers are 1/2 pound made with fresh ground beef. Plenty of seating. read more

I had the chicken bowl and it was delicious! My husband had the skirt steak platter and absolutely left no crumbs! He said it was sooooo good! There were so many things to choose from it was hard to make a decision. The food has a Peruvian flair with very tasteful flavors. The jumbo wings looked sooooo good and we have to go back and try them. You should go and try this place. The food is definitely worth going again! Loved it! read more

Soooooo good! I wish I'd taken photos, but I was hangry (just ask my husband LoL!), and by the time I thought about it, our meals were nearly gone. My husband ordered the Cuban sandwich, and it was even better than the ones we order at a Cuban restaurant we frequent in Florida. I had the chicken breast platter, and oh my goodness, so delicious! With the platter you get to choose 2 different sauces. Upon the owner's (?) recommendation, I got the Jalapeno/Cilantro and Chimichuri. Yum! I couldn't decide which one was better! My 2 sides were also delicious. Everything was fresh and hot. My only complaint was the building needs a little TLC, especially the bathroom. It was clean, but the sink and door are in need of servicing. Also, the ventilation needs improvement. It got a bit smoky in the dining room. They have a nice outdoor area that I'm looking forward to taking advantage of when the weather is warmer. Small price to pay for the yummy food though, so it still gets 5 stars! Not sure if this is a franchise, but with better marketing/advertising, this restaurant would flourish! read more

My friend and I decided to try a new restaurant. I used to live here and was visiting. My friend used to live here, moved away and has been back a few years. When I suggested we get something to eat, my friend told me there aren't any good food places here. So, being a Yelp girl, I said let's just see. I found Rockin' Chicken, read the reviews, and we decided to give it a try. When we walked in, my friend saw someone she knew eating there who told us we can't go wrong with whatever we order. Great! The place is very clean, neat and tidy. There's plenty of seating for after you order. They also have tables and chairs outside too. We started outside, but moved inside once the rain came. We told the young lady taking our order at the counter that it was our first time at the restaurant. We asked her to tell us about the menu. She was extremely knowledgeable about the menu and excited to tell us about some of the favorites and also the special. We decided to order the special and an extra side to split. The special was a Cuban sandwich, with Argentinian fries, and we ordered a side of homemade potato salad. The food came out hot and delicious! Since I'm from here originally, I know people want to know which kind potato salad they sell. It is cold and mayonnaise based. Not mustard and not hot:) It was so creamy and delicious. I must say the meat on the Cuban was seasoned so beautifully, but the stars of the show were the Argentinian fries! Hot with parsley and Parmesan. When we were finished eating, one of the owners checked with us to be sure we were satisfied with our meal. A resounding, yes, and we'll be back AND we will share with our friends! Keep it up Rockin' Chicken! read more

I'm going to spread the love for Rockin Chicken. It is one of Evansville's hidden gems. The food is phenomenal. Especially for the price. I usually get chicken and plantains. Loretta got the steak toco platter. They have several sauces. Sometimes I get spicy BBQ. It's amazing. But the chicken is sooo delicious that you don't need sause. I usually sneak over here about once a week for lunch. The lunch specials during the week, you can't eat the good for the prices. And I hope you lick Rock music. That's the theam here. They are located on N First avenue directly across from Walmart grocery store. And Steve and Jr, they will treat you like a friend. Very personable. Steve,, Junior, you Rock!. read more

We ordered the Cuban sandwich with Argentinian fries and the Trio Platter. Generous servings, perfectly spiced, cooked after we ordered so servings were hot and fresh. Delicious. They should bottle and sell their Chimichurri sauce separately. We would have bought extra of that too! The co-owner was super friendly and helpful. Fabulous meal. read more

Great food! Great service. Excellent service. What more is needed to say? Rock and roll memorabilia, somewhat.

The food here is to die for! Amazing taste and perfect seasonings. The owner came out and talked us through the menu. The barbecue is the best we have had in Evansville. They make all of their sauces. Plantains were amazing and there's a reason their name mentions chicken. You cannot go there without trying ... and then loving the perfectly smoked chicken. read more

I've only went once, flavor was great but portions small. For the price I'd like to see more food on the plate. But would go again because staff was friendly and food was delicious!!!!!!!!!! read more

Lunch for 3, $50 and it just wasn't very good. For only $17, I got a rubbery skirt steak, undercooked potato salad, mac and cheese (not bad) and a tiny roll. The other two meals were somewhat less expensive and somewhat better (edible). The counter person and person who cleared the table were friendly and helpful. You place your order at the counter, drink out of plastic cups, eat with plastic silverware that you gather yourself and eat off on plastic plates. In my opinion this is just a overpriced fast food restaurant that wants to be so much more. The lack of ambiance was similar to any other fast food restaurant. read more

The grilled chicken wings are worth it! We came in for the holidays and decided to get some late lunch (early dinner.) I had the 5 wings and a stake salad. My mom and grandfather had a chicken bowl. My nephew had 10 wings and fries. The food did not disappoint. Everything is grilled, so no extra grease!!! My grandfather has declared this will be a must stop every time we come to visit. read more

I had seen a review of rockin chicken online so I thought I had to try it. As a former restaurant tour I'm incredibly picky and this place was awesome. They serve Latin American food and I had just gotten back from Brazil Ray had some amazing meals and rockin chicken did not disappoint. I had a Cuban sandwich with the Argentinian fries and hamburger great I can't wait to go back. read more

The food, service, and atmosphere are all a 10 out of 10! We don't mind the little bit of wait on them preparing the food because it is fresh, hot and delicious, EVERY TIME! If you haven't been yet, you are missing out! read more

If you haven't tried this place yet, put it on the list. I have tried almost half the menu and I have been impressed on so many levels . From the tacos to the ribs, from the chicken to the grilled skirt steak. It's all so amazing and delicious. The staff is great too. Everyone you interact with makes you feel like part of the Rockin family. I'm not a little guy and some of the portions have me getting a to-go box after I've eaten. Try this place, you won't be disappointed. read more

Rockin' Chicken - Grilled Skirt Steak sammich with a side of fries and some Rockin Cheese sauce is almost too much for even me, almost. - Tex-Mex Near Me - Evansville, Indiana

Oh my goodness!!! Best chicken in a restaurant for a loooong time. I went with and was treated to lunch with a coworker and everything from the service to the food was awesome. The staff brought us our food and constantly ask if we're doing okay. Which we were because it was some good eating. The restaurant is clean as is the restroom which is important for any established. The inside is very roomy for it visitors too. Best part besides the food is you can eat outside which is beautifully set and on a good day, as of this writing is a treat. Do yourself and stomach a favor and get some delicious food. read more

Rockin' Chicken - 1/2 Chicken Meal. 2 sides Mac and cheese and potato salad. And roll. - Tex-Mex Near Me - Evansville, Indiana

So I decided to give rockin chicken, a second try. Again, the pulled pork was cold. Unfortunately, I won't be spending any more money there. I got the pulled pork platter. I called in the order and picked it up at 11:30, right on time. The pulled pork was barely heated. I ordered two sauces on the side. They come straight out of the refrigerator and ice cold. So you can't add the sauce to heat up the meat because it makes it more cold. And I also can't believe the size that they give you for a side. Very tiny. I just don't understand it. Maybe they are better when you dine in. The flavors are there. Fortunately, I was headed home, so I could heat up the meat in order to make it edible. The pork is also very dry, even after adding the sauce. read more
