We had our BEST St. Louis breakfast at Rooster! Our farm-to-table meals were a delight, and a mixed drink with breakfast, a treat. We ordered crepes with a potato and egg side, and a slinger. All were absolutely amazing! Equally pleasing was the fun atmosphere! Egg-shaped pendant lights, decor lovingly brushed by local elementary-aged artists, farm-style colors, and a bustling, positive atmosphere. Our server, Jason, welcomed us to St. Louis and offered local sight-seeing advice. What a great guy!And, what a great experience!! Arrive early, many options were sold out at 11:00 am. read more

This is great. Not awesome. But I would still go back again and again. Service was a bit slow. Atmosphere is great. Food is good. Smaller portions than you get most places. read more

In St. Louis for a conference and decided to pop into Rooster for Breakfast before hitting the road. I came here because it's a cute, hipster place with a pretty good breakfast. Breakfast was on point as usual, but the service left something to be desired. After a short wait, we were seated at about 10:15am. It's important to note the time, because what happened next is where the trouble began. We ordered our food at 10:22. And were enjoying coffee and chatting when April, the Manager, walked up at around 10:47 and asked whether we had been helped. I told her that we had but that we were still waiting on our food. April then says, you've only been waiting 5 minutes, I sat you here, ...10 at the most. I had the the waiter check the time at which we placed our order and April tried to argue with me about the time we were seated because either she or the hostess had not checked us on when we were seated. April was not only wrong... SHE WAS LOUD AND WRONG! We never expressed concern about when our food was coming. It was Sunday and busy. There was no need for concern. She inserted herself and was DEAD WRONG and Loud! Anthony was great. April sucks! read more

Biscuits and gravy were the show stopper for real. They messed up on the eggs, but their version of biscuits and gravy made up for it a little bit. We also got the strawberry crepes and I added nutella on it which was very good as well, however it didn't come with any sides so I was hungry again pretty soon. The vibe of the place was really cute. However, it took our server forever to bring us water and the check. I think they just gave her more than what she could handle because she was really nice but expect a wait for sure read more

Really lovely place, friendly staff, and a nice selection of vegetarian and vegan-friendly options. The sally cinnamon drink is so good. The crepe I got didn't have enough pesto, sauce, or flavor, but it was filled with good fillings read more

Just alright. I had the Rooster Slinger, which is the most popular item on the menu. I do not think this is an impressive item. Just so-so. I won't come back again. read more

Absolutely terrible experience between the hosts at the front and the bartender service was horrible bartender spent more time telling people where they can and can't sit and bartender all around rude for starting and agument in front of customers this location was my favorite will not be returning read more

Wow. Crazy to force customers to use a review app for the wait list when the food is terrible, service is slow, and the place is falling apart. Joined the waitlist before we arrived for brunch and were seatedimmediately. Cute spot, but the siding was literally falling off the wall at our booth and it looked like more than a few kids had a great time poking at it, furthering the disrepair. Ok, whatever, fine, we're hungry. After about 5 minutes, someone comes to take our drink order. 5 minutes after that coffee and some water arrives. We wait another 5 minutes for our order to be taken. I remember thinking "wow hope this isn't a foreshadowing for the rest of our experience." Unfortunately it was!!!! We waited 50 minutes from our time of order to plates being put on our table. At 30 minutes I started getting bothered. Because this place wasn't even busy (and in hindsight, a BRUNCH place being slow at noon on a Sunday should've been a sign not to go). At 40 minutes, I watched our server get pretty seriously reprimanded by the manager while cleaning up a table. Now I don't know what was going on, but it seemed not-deserved and honestly looked like she was about to cry from his unnecessary and very out in the open berating session. At 45 minutes, I didn't really want to bother our poor waitress, but asked if she wouldn't mind checking on the food. She said it wouldn't be a problem, returned and told us that we were 4th in line so it wouldn't be much longer. I'm sorry fourth??????? 45 minutes after ordering. I was ready to leave but someone came, plates in hand just as I was beginning to consider running. Food was hot but not good at all. I had biscuits and gravy and I don't know how they made that gravy but it was not a correct or tasty recipe. I wondered if the sausage was fully cooked and once confirmed dug in. It had truly the weirdest flavor. Oddly sweet, super heavy flour taste (like a bad roux), and in MAJOR need of literally any kind of seasoning at all. Potatoes were fine but soggy. They also needed some major salt and were dusted with cumin, (which I'm assuming is the only seasoning they have in the kitchen???) which also made its way on top of my fruit bowl!!! Not yum!!! Homemade ketchup is all they have to offer and it is BAD. Like vomit BAD. It's like really old marinara that wasn't even good when it was fresh but for some reason got bottled and left on a table. Oh yeah, it's not refrigerated either. And no date on the bottle. Wonder if the health department knows about that. I asked if they had the to go packets of branded ketchup... yknow, the kind with normal required expiration dates but they told me they were out. Hm maybe, just maybe if enough people are requesting real ketchup that you've run out of it- that's a sign you shouldn't be homemaking your ketchup! It's bad! Also gross! I asked our server if there was any other sort of sauce they had and the manager came over- interrupting her! She seriously looked so devastated. I wanted to call him out and tell him- let the girl speak!!!! He brought over some sriracha mayo which wasn't any better and then asked how our food was. I told him I wasn't feeling it and it seemed like he gets that a lot. No shock there. No offer for help or anything else. He gave us a short life story about how he's a trainer so he has to be rude and mean to the waitstaff which totally makes up for the very obviously low morale there. I had a few more bites of potato and gave up. We flagged our server down and paid the bill hightailing it out of there. Yikes. Seriously DO NOT go here. It is that bad. It is even worse. It is indescribably not good. Though I've tried. Heed my warning. read more

Came for Saturday breakfast around 9:00 am. Got seated immediately. Food was mediocre tasting. Definitely not even close to being one of my favorite breakfast/ brunch places. I ordered a Rooster Slinger which was room temp if not cold upon being brought to the table. Matcha latte (hot) was not mixed well so you see matcha chunks floating around. I would try a different place. read more

3.5 really good brunch food downtown and the Bloody Mary was delicious however we waited close to an hour to be served after ordering.

Went for breakfast. They were really busy so it took a little longer to get our food than anticipated but overall a good experience & the food was good. I have celiac and had zero issue ordering read more

Sooooo much food. I ordered the brunch burger, expecting one "burger" but I got 2! My partner ordered the Rooster Slinger and that was a large portion too. We could've shared one meal for sure, especially since they were so heavy. Food was good, no complaints but also nothing crazy to rave about. Definitely walked outta there with a food coma! read more

I ordered the avocado scramble. It was delicious - 3 eggs with red pepper and onions topped over some sliced potatoes. I would definitely return here for breakfast when I'm in downtown St. Louis. Sure beats hotel food! read more

Eating at Rooster is always such a mixed bag in terms of service and quality. Best bet is to order and eat in person so if they mess up your order you can get it corrected there. Just did a pickup order of a half order of biscuits and gravy and a full order of biscuits and gravy, but both servings were the exact same half orders. We also ordered a dreamsicle smoothie and when we got there the hostess didn't seem to know what that was and we had to wait for a half blended orange and carrot smoothie that didn't more than half the cup it was given to us in. Did not look at all like the picture when ordering. read more

Quite disappointed on where the service and food has landed. A once vibrant breakfast place it seems like its losing steam. Food. The lemon custard crepes: The consistency of the custard was good. What was not acceptable was the rubber like texture and cold temperature of the crepe. It was clear this was not a fresh crepe by its breakage. While the custard texture was appropriate. The flavor profile lacked a Umami balance and was over tart. read more

Ordered at 1 and it seemed like everyone was already ready to get out the door the food was very disappointing for the 30 minute wait unfortunately will not be coming back seemed like a nice spot read more

Worst customer service I've ever had in a restaurant. The waitress was very slow had no care in the world. Never apologize for forgetting drinks or having our food order wrong. had to get our own coffee because she never brought it. Food was good even though it was the wrong order. read more

Literal worst seating I've ever seen they have you sitting shoulder to shoulder with random strangers because it's modern looking, absolutely awful experience read more

Best downtown brunch spot in St. Louis hand down. The new location is huge and there's lots of room to spread out. The staff is attentive and provides great service...and the food is delivered fast and hot and as ordered. There are some great coffee drinks too that are worth checking out. read more

This place is adorable inside and out. There was quite a line in the morning for brunch so be prepared to wait or make a reservation if possible. It's so warm and light inside its a good way to start your day. There is high top and table seating with some booths as well. We saw a large family of 14 sitting together so they do offer large groups, but no private space FYI. I really enjoyed my food, their juice options an the staff was great. For being understaffed they all worked really hard and service did not suffer! Street parking only. read more

After viewing their online presence and reviews we were delighted to be able to go for a visit while in St.Louis. This place had over an hour wait, their waitstaff was awful, rude and dismissive, the pancakes I got were still Dough in the middle! I was so disappointed and won't ever be back. read more

Very disappointing. Waited over 30 minutes to get a seat and then waited another 45 minutes just to get food. The food doesn't look like the pictures; like they threw things on a plate just to get food out of the kitchen. Biscuits and gravy...no. Was 1 biscuit cut in half... Atmosphere is nice but the overall experience was not. read more

We came for Billy Joel ahd it was postponed. Rooster saved the trip. Best breakfast I had in a long time. Apple crepe - perfect - both the crepe texture and filling. Yogurt and homemade granola with fresh berries. Yum. My wife's zucchini scramble looked great. Top notch service. Wonderful restaurant. read more

We put in our reservation on the wait list ahead of time but still had to wait over 20 mins past our expected time to be seated. The food was great, it just took a long time for anything to be delivered. Also seems like a lot of unused/open space that could be optimized. read more

The food was great! Really great brunch spot. Exactly what I was looking for. The coffee was so good. My friend I came back the next day to get must coffee to go. The ambiance is very cute. Service was attentive and friendly. read more

There were three of us going to try this place. We are from out of town, so we didn't know how things worked here. But on the app we were using for travel, they suggested we join the waitlist. So we did. When we got there, after waiting for 10 minutes, we were casually greeted by the "host". He told us we would be the next table seated. We watched as others came in and were seated before us. We waited for another 20 minutes before he finally took us to our table. The decor was very well done. The atmosphere was good. When we ordered, we were told that we were getting the last cup of coffee because they unexpectedly ran out and had to order an emergency batch. When we got our coffee we had to ask for creamer several times and ask for a spoon for my soup. The food was overall good. But it wasn't really worth the trouble we went through to get it. I think normally they are a good restaurant. It was spring break, so maybe we just caught them on an off week. But I think they should communicate to their customers more. They didn't make the best first impression. read more

Got my order spot on (not much to it other than egg on the side which some restaurants miss). The place is so cute and open! Great, fast and friendly service. Estimated pickup time was right on, even a few early. Love it! Went back for breakfast the next morning (also one of the only places that has interesting vegetarian options other than say toast and eggs) and OMG THE VEGAN SLINGER. Never had anything like it!! Only thing I'd say is the grilled cheese could have more pesto/mayo but still a great sandwich. read more

Very brunchy atmosphere. So many mimosas. The Apple pie French toast was to die for. Almost didn't need syrup. It would be great to split with someone and order something savory. I wish the crepes came with two. read more

I've now been here twice when I've been in town and it's such a solid restaurant. Everything we tried here was great and it's so reasonably priced! I got the breakfast sandwich which is two biscuits with egg and sausage on each and a side of potatoes. It was enormous and served as two meals for me and with tax was only $12! I was very happy with my choice and you can also ask for jelly on the side to have with half your biscuit. The Finnish pankcake wasn't my favorite due to texture, but if you know it's a custard-based pancake going into it you will probably like it (consistency of flan). The service was good and the people were friendly. They got our party of 5 without reservations in right away. I would definitely come here again if I come back in town. read more

I wanted a quick breakfast without all the frills. They provided just that. My eggs and chicken sausage were perfect. We ordered the mimosas with vodka special and it was not good. Cheap vodka read more

Food was served cold, potatoes were old and overcooked, sausage was undercooked, and the waitress stood over us when it was time to pay!

Potatoes came out cold. Sausage was undercooked. French toast has no cinnamon simple warm bread with powdered sugar. Meals came slow and nothing was correct. Waiter stood over us as we were paying after messing up the meals. Do not recommend. Prices were too high for the food services. read more

Weekends have long wait times. Get there early if you want the ham. The hash brown is delicious. Great place to eat.

My grandma and I used to go here every weekend for brunch, and it's such a cute spot after church or just hanging out with friends. We love Rooster and have been going here for years! The food doesn't take forever to come out even when it is busy and the waiters are very nice and polite. read more

- not a fan of the yogurt - white cream not sure what it is - sitting strawberries - too much cream filling - carmelized onions? - strong adoba taste on potato fries - no cheese on eggs - sausage very rough hard to get fork through - bottom of biscuit is decent - jam is nice 8/10 read more
