Every time I approach Roosters, my pulse races. My eyes dilate. My ancestors smile. The moment those doors open, my eyes light up akin to witnessing the Pearly Gates themselves. I don't hear the hostess say "Table for one?", I hear a choir of angels welcoming me home. The curly fries possess a crispness that should be studied by NASA. The spicy ranch deserves its own seat on the Supreme Court. I once came here after a difficult day and left believing in humanity again. If civilization collapsed tomorrow, I would spend my final moments trying to explain to future archaeologists that this place wasn't just a restaurant, it was a beacon of hope. Thank you, Roosters. read more

We haven't been to Roosters in ages but were looking for something a little different the other night and decided to try Roosters. Unfortunately for us, it was Wednesday which is KIDS NIGHT at Roosters (kids eat for $1.99). Suffice it to say, the place was packed and there were a ton of kids. Despite the crowds, service was decent and our server was good, very attentive. I ordered the jalapeño burger with a side of fries. The portions on the fries was as very generous, the burger was very good but not a top 10 contender. My wife had a 10 piece order of the boneless wings. Also good but nothing that would make us want to return any time soon. Service was good. Prices are reasonable and the food was very acceptable, just not great. PS - you could get sensory overload from the number of TV's and the noise levels. read more

I'm a fan of Roosters, especially because their boneless wings are massive. However, this location always seems to be packed, their reservation system does not work, and the food takes at least 30 minutes to come out. I've had better luck at the Olentangy River Rd. location, but this one is fine if you don't mind waiting. I highly recommend the fried pickles, boneless or bone-in wings, and (surprisingly) their pizza is not bad. read more

It was not very busy as it was New Year's however, it was starting to get busier which made the environment. Feel like it's the place to be during a game. Service is always been outstanding and the food was very good. I got an order of the 10 wings traditional style with Garlic mixed with the Parmesan garlic and they were exceptional. Just a very cool place with a lot of great TVs and a good place to simply meet up with your buddies. read more

Roosters Polaris - 10 traditional wings tossed in garlic and Parmesan garlic - Chicken Wings Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

Love this place when I travel! Cheap and tasty. Compared to anything I get back home, you can't beat the service and price

The visit was just mid all around. I came in with my friend and the hostess told us to just go wherever so we went to a booth by the window. We sat there for awhile before anyone came over so there must be some disconnect there between host and server. Then when we finally ordered the place was not that busy and it took almost 30 minutes for our 2 order of 5 boneless wings and a shared order of fries. Then my friends order came out wrong. The wings were in a different sauce, but my food was good and the server was nice but not very attentive. The place was clean and I have always loved roosters it was just my first time at this location. I was not impressed. read more

Roosters Polaris - Dining room - Chicken Wings Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

We are from Mississippi and was visiting family in Ohio. They raved about roosters wings. So we went for lunch. It was very busy, line out the door. But we got seated fairly quickly. The waitress was great. Seemed like a fun quirky place with funny signs on the walls. Games playing on the TVs. The food was okay. Nothing blew us away. We liked the wings, chicken wrap, cheese curds, onion petals. But nothing really stood out for me. We would go back because it is decent food. Just not something we'll crave. read more

Roosters is pretty basic but that's ok, they have a great grilled chicken sandwich and the prices are very reasonable. I've always had good service. The only real downside here is it does get very busy in the evenings, lots of families with kids...so personally I usually go closer to mid-afternoon for a late lunch. read more

Good food and faster service. We went on a Friday night and we had the best experience ever. Keep up the good work we will be back soon.

Come for the consistently good food, keno, ample seating, good service. Its a chain wing spot so the stars are in comparison to that... not to a 5 star dining establishment. I come whenever I'm in town. read more

Delicious wings, salads and apps. Also love their beer on tap options. Wait times can be long but luckily my husband and I don't mind sitting at the bar if it is available. read more

Picked up wings, fried mushrooms, and celery sticks with ranch dressing. Got 10 medium and 10 Korean bbq wings. Loved it all. Roosters is the place for wings. Not overfried or over sauced. Picked up my order in 15 minutes. One girl stopped me to double check my order to make sure I got everything. Appreciated her service. read more

Roosters Polaris - Bar - Chicken Wings Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

There's was what looked like a rag in my daughters wing box. I thought this was some sick joke but nope

Went to two local bars to watch an out of market NFL game, nobody was playing it. Decided to make the 20 drive last minute since they were the most recognizable name that we knew would actually have the NFL Sunday Ticket. Found 2 seats at the bar immediately upon arrival, and the host told us first come first serve at the bar. Bartender Sam was ATTENTIVE!!!! She was very busy, but always moving with a purpose, organized, and friendly! If I owned a bar, she'd be my first choice! Great food, environment not too loud but loud enough to watch a game and have a couple beers. The 22oz drafts were a surprise, but we didn't struggle to finish them! Thank you Sam for the great experience! read more

Who doesn't love Roosters? It is typically hard to find anything to complain about at Roosters. The service was great. The environment is always lively. The food was good - I had the red, bacon, and blue salad with an order of chicken fingers, which is my go-to at Roosters, and it did not disappoint. Wifie had the fried chicken salad, which she loved. It's always a great place to stop... read more

Food was delicious and atmosphere was very fun and relaxed! I got the grilled chicken tenders and a side of fries, the portions are large for what you get! Peyton was our server and she did great, always had a full drink in front of me:) read more

The food and service was good thoroughly enjoyed, but it shouldn't take an hour to get my food!!

First time here. Decent food but mostly greasy sort of family casual dining food, nothing crazy expensive by any means. The fries were a bit soggy but we had ordered other food items so we just skipped eating those. The buffalo flavored chicken tenders were flavorful and tender so that was good. I flew in from Las Vegas for a show so chances are we prob wont be back but it was decent overall. read more

We were serviced by Tiffani, who was very polite and attentive, but they need more help in the kitchen. Our food took forever. The curly fries were cold for my son but his boneless wings were hot! My husband and I split a full chicken Caesar Salad and still brought some home. We did have wings and potato skins. They were very busy and quite the waiting list. Great place to watch sports as they are many televisions. read more

As usual this place was great. Service was on point and the food was great. Always a good place to stop in and enjoy lunch when your out shopping. Really enjoyed the wings and the pizza was ok. Even the kids liked what they got and finished it all. Which doesn't happen all the time. We will make sure to come back and maybe next time I'll try the onion rings. read more

I don't like being that guy that leaves bad reviews unless it's absolutely necessary, but this situation I think is necessary enough to make other customers and the Corporate offices aware of one of the absolute WORST restaurant experiences my family and I have ever had. My family and I are long time, loyal customers of Roosters but honestly we'll probably never go again unless Roosters makes this right in some sort of way. After waiting for over 1 hour and 20 mins... around 6:05pm my family and I decided that we were just going to leave and eat somewhere else. I walked up to the hostess to let her know that, and the hostess again was kind and apologized. I told her I know it's not her fault, but it seemed like a management issue. As I was telling this to the hostess, another woman from the Roosters staff walked up to us with horrible body language, an attitude, and a bitter look on her face, and abruptly interrupted us.... Rudely and loudly saying in front of all the customers: "If you want to leave then leave- we can't just tell other guests sitting down to leave.. And we don't even take reservations." She said her name was Jen and that she's one of the Managers as well... I explained to Jen that I understand that they don't necessarily take designated reservations, however, we did everything we were supposed to and called ahead on Thursday, did everything we were instructed to do by calling in over 2 hrs in advance that day, and waiting patiently for over an hour and 20 minutes... While I was trying to explain that to her, she just kept interrupting me and talking over me saying "we don't even take reservations.. we don't even take reservations." She was being so rude, aggressive, and condescending, that I had to stop and ask her "Why are you continuing to interrupt me and be rude?" Her response was "I'm allowed to be rude since you were harassing my employees and hostess"... I asked her how did we harass her hostess and she replied rudely again "By asking when you were going to be seated multiple times!" I kindly smiled, bit my tongue about what I really wanted to say to her and told her "Asking a hostess when we would be seated is a reasonable question not harassment. But no worries, I'll contact corporate and we'll leave." With that being said, as my family and I were walking out, several other guests that witnessed the entire thing were saying "that manager needs to be fired how she was talking to you... that was so unacceptable! After tonight we're never coming here again!"... And that was what other random guests were saying who we didn't know! So hopefully that puts it into perspective. All in all, though we were disappointed with the fact that we had to wait over 1 HOUR and 20 MINS in total, and ended up leaving before ever being seated... what I'm complaining about is the MANAGERS. Tanner was a bit rude for no reason and the manager Jen??? She be ashamed of herself... not only as a manager but as a human. You don't speak to people so rudely and disrespectfully, especially when we were being reasonable about the situation. Ownership and the Corporate offices should be ashamed that they have a manager like Jen conducting herself like that, and being a HORRIBLE example to her employees. By no means am I trying to get Jen fired, but I really hope Roosters ownership trains / retrains Jen not only how to manage, but also how to talk to people and provide good customer service, because the way she spoke to me and my family in front of all those guests especially, was completely unacceptable. read more

For a wing joint, there are plenty of other options as well. I appreciate that. My go to is the grilled chicken salad. My son usually gets the pizza and it's pretty good (high praise from a pizza snob!) I find the service is almost always friendly and the prices are super reasonable. read more

We went back again tonight because this place is cravable for us when we want wings and Buffalo flavors and it delivered yet again. I'm not sure why this place rates as low as it does because we continue to love it for what it is. Service was good today and great sports vibe for the start of football season. read more

By all means, go eat at Roosters, but pick any location but this one. I don't know if it's because it's located by a mall or what, but the staff at this particular Roosters are all VERY young, so there's this flippancy with the way the handle/cook/serve your food. I was given a horrible attitude this last time because they hadn't understood my order over the phone. The girl on the other end was sighing rudely and exclaiming "oh geez" "ugh" every time she messed up. Naturally, I went down in person after the call to double check I wasn't being over charged(and I was). A group of teen girls had ME come behind the register and check my own order on their screen very rudely. I'm pretty sure customers aren't allowed at the register but again, very young and rude. After I checked, I kindly asked them how their day was going, how they liked the job and the exchange became more pleasant due to my lack of negative reciprocation. I won't be back(at this location)If you've eaten these at Roosters you know this is NOT how they're supposed to look. read more

I'll add a caveat to start this review that I have been a big Roosters fan for a number of years. Mainly because I devour chicken wings like nobody's business - a rarity I suppose for ladies in general. Not sure why (since you can clean your hands so easily), but I digress. There are two reasons for this mediocre rating: primarily, my wing order was on the sad side and the drums were quite small. [Historically, roosters wings, especially the drums, are on the larger side and unfortunately these rivaled with the small BW3 ones (*tear)]. From a service perspective there were issues with getting drinks in a timely manner (water, bottles of beer, etc.), missing food orders, and issues with multiple checks. So, less than desirable on that front. Things happen; I get it. It was hoppin' and staff was busy. Everyone seems to be more patient and that's great... especially Christina who waits to eat her wings until her friend's pizza comes out. And I'll leave you with this teaching moment: if you have food in front of you and your companion does not, you should wait it out and not eat until their food arrives. That is all. read more

Decided to grab a quick bite before the first day of school tomorrow. The ladies in the front were very nice, even opened the doors for us. Told us we could sit wherever we wanted. Despite being crowded, service was great. Our server came right away with water and took our drink order. Drinks and food came out quickly and was made exactly as I requested. We could not get over all the children at this location, there were so many young families with 4-6 kids. I was truly impressed at how well behaved all the kids were. It was nice seeing families with little ones out having a great time. We did laugh though when I spotted the sign outside the window, will include with this review. Now it made sense, it was kids night for 99 cents. If my kids were little, we would have been regulars every Wednesday. read more

Roosters Polaris - Great promotions at this location - Chicken Wings Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

This is the worst Roosters I've been to in Ohio. Like all of them, it is extremely crowded, but the other restaurants quality doesn't seem to have suffered despite the busyness. I ordered tater tots and a grilled chicken wrap. The wrap had absolutely no flavor, the tater tots were colder than room temperature and the wing sauce was as runny as a salad dressing. My partner had an order of wings that were so oversauced It was off putting. I do love Roosters, but would drive out of my way to go to a different location than this one. read more

Love this location! Quick service at the bar and the wings are almost always perfect. Great job! 9.9/10! I love the sauce selection too!

Wife and I were in Columbus! Wanted to try something new, we settled on this place and the didn't disappoint. Some of the best wings I've had. Anytime we are in Columbus this place is a must!!! read more

Great wings. I get them wet to get extra flavor. The service can be slow on busy night but that's understandable. Ambiance is a typical wings spot or pub. It can get very loud at times . They have plenty of TV's. read more

Surprisingly busy, but they just let us seat ourselves. The decor is pretty interesting, lots of sports, but also lots of funny decor too. The menus were single use paper mats so not a fan of the waste. One ordered a buffalo chicken pizza that he said was pretty good, another ordered some grilled strips with a side of wedges, and I ordered cauliflower wings. For vegetarian options there were those under appetizers, veggie sub, pizza, or a salad so figured why not. Despite being an appetizer there wasn't much in the bowl, didn't even cover the bottom. Sauce seemed to be just poured into the bottom instead of the wings being tossed. The worst part was that they were room temp so didn't even feel warm. The guys seemed ok with the food. They weren't impressed either, but ok. Overpriced for what it is. read more

It's a wing joint. It is what it is. Big glasses of beer, messy finger foods & average service. Tried the veggie sub, basically an onion, pepper, mushroom cheesesteak without the steak topped with mild salad peppers, L + T, then their zesty house Italian dressing. It was good. It could have been better if the mushrooms weren't from a can. I was then reminded it was a wing joint and that tempered my expectations. Mozzarella sticks & fried cauliflower in your choice of sauce were also flavorful vegetarian options. read more
