Frommer's

"Founded by a Harlem native in 1975, this soul food restaurant is the place to revel in Southern fried chicken smothered in gravy and onions. This place is deep into don’t-knock-it-until-you’ve-tried-it territory."

"There's one place, and one place only, to get chicken and waffles in southern California: Roscoe's House of Chicken and Waffles. Founded by a Harlem native on a mission to bring straight and simple soul food to LA, Roscoe's serves up miraculous plates of golden-hued fried chicken and crispy waffles."

"“Tender, succulent, crispy, crunchy, perfectly salted morsels” of fried chicken.”

"“Tender, succulent, crispy, crunchy, perfectly salted morsels” of fried chicken and “light, fluffy”, “buttery” waffles “just go together” at this “deservedly famous” “old-school soul-food” chain that's inspired a comfort-food “cult following”."

Farley Elliott

"Then there is the combination. That moment when chicken meets waffle meets butter meets maple syrup. With one bite, your hangover has faded from view. With two bites you are completely rejuvenated and ready to kick Saturday in the face. Eat the whole plate, and... well, you'll probably be back in bed, but for very different reasons. "

Dan Myers

"The Best Chicken and Waffles in America: Roscoe’s House of Chicken and Waffles - Even President Obama made a pit stop at Roscoe’s during a visit to Los Angeles. The chicken is skillet-fried fresh to order, and make sure to ask for your waffles to be cooked extra-crispy."

Nicole Isaacs

"It’s good ol’ Southern comfort food for the soul, and is known for their combo of fried chicken and waffles. I know there are some people who can’t get how the combination of fried chicken and waffles would be good together, but trust me, it’s a masterpiece."

Gayot

"For dessert, a slice of sweet potato pie is a must."

"The name may sound offbeat, but we assure you that this down-home combination really works, with sweet cinnamon-flavored waffles complementing crispy, Southern-style fried chicken. The sweetness of the waffles and maple syrup is cut nicely by the vinegary Louisiana-style hot sauce sitting on every Formica table."
