The Red Rooster What Our Friends Are SayingThe Infatuation: "The Southern food at Red Rooster is fine. Some things are even really good. But that’s not why you come to this now-legendary spot in Harlem. You come because few restaurants in this city feel as alive as Red Rooster - the atmosphere is incredible. The bar area is mobbed, the DJ is spinning funk and soul tunes (or come on a Sunday, and the jazz band will be jamming), and people generally appear to be having a blast. Whether you’re here for brunch or a late-night dinner, it’s going to feel like the kind of party where you actually know people."Conde Nast Traveler: "The sky-high energy is what first hits you during brunch at Red Rooster. Not only is it packed with a mix of Harlem locals and southern food fans from all over the city, there's also usually a DJ or (on Sundays) a jazz band. People come here for the fun, lively atmosphere just as much as the food. Music is a big part of brunch here, and the Sunday jazz band is transportive. Expect your fellow diners to be in a good mood, and from all walks of life."

There’s no pizazz at the Red Rooster in Harlem, but that’s OK because there’s nothing to take away from the most delectable comfort food there ever was. Thanks to the talents of chef Marcus Samuelsoon, the Red Rooster has cemented itself as a landmark of Harlem that celebrates the diversity of the neighborhood through cuisine.
