I heard that this was one of the new trendy places in Charlotte but it is highly over rated.  The prices are high considering the quality and the portion size of the food.  The 1/2 chicken is $13.00 and does not come with anything.  The taste was bland to say the least.  The roasted take-out chickens from Wal-Mart are more appetizing and the mashed potatoes from Bo-Jangles are better too.   It is not child friendly either since there is no menu for them which is a little unusual considering it is a casual restaurant and the family demographics of Charlotte.  I ordered chicken fingers for my daughter for $5-$6 and then added an order of fried for $5.  Horrible value.  The service was disappointing too.  We arrived well before the Saturday night rush and had a reservation and asked to be seated in a booth since there were two open booths.  The hostess said that we needed to request a booth when we called and that it was reserved for someone else.  I have never heard of such a thing for a casual restaurant.   I know that the chef has done well but I would not recommend Roosters to anyone.  There are many better choices  in Charlotte for far-less money and better quality.  I would not even call it a Tapas style restaurant either.
