"Neither a swanky burger or an outlaw slider, Red Rooster's cheeseburger deluxe has a nice charcoal aura and fresh-meat flavor. Grilled onions are a fine crowning touch."
Michael Stern
"Each onion ring is a significant piece of food. Add a little salt and they are a hamburger's best friend."
Michael Stern
"By row, starting in the upper left corner:
Chocolate egg cream, chocolate shake, ice tea, vanilla egg cream; cheeseburger deluxe, clam roll, bacon cheeseburger deluxe, chili-cheese dog, double cheeseburger deluxe with onions and mushrooms ("the biggest, nastiest burger [they] have"); family size fries with cheese, chili and onions, and a bacon cheese dog."
Nat Hansen
"The personality of founder Jack Sypek infuses the Red Rooster from the top down, as seen in his portrait that looms above the order counter."
Michael Stern
"The Red Rooster is a virtual time machine back to the heyday of car culture and a pre-Golden-Arches era when roadside hamburger joints had real personality."
