"Remember that hometown diner that your grandparents always dragged you to because they couldn’t fathom paying for a meal elsewhere? Roshambo is like that, but it’s a diner we actually love and that doesn’t smell like generations of collected grease and line cooks’ tears. For starters they serve ribeye, crudo, and raw and grilled oysters all day. The upscale diner also has big, cushy U-shaped leather booths, and a long cocktail menu, so in the dimly lit evenings, the place feels like a fancy steakhouse. But when you eye the table next to you enjoying an order of three-inch thick french toast and a retro-looking mug filled to the brim with coffee, the diner vibes rush back in." - demarco williams, nina reeder, juli horsford, jacinta howard
"Head to Roshambo in Buckhead for a bucket with a side of nostalgia. The crunchy chicken has a herby spice mix (they won't tell you the recipe) that makes it extra savory. You can order the Party Barrel, either a half or whole bird, broken into four to eight pieces. And just like your bucket from back in the day, it comes with three sides—sweet corn on the cob, creamy mac and cheese, and buttery biscuits—a substantial meal for sharing. Even the old-school diner feel of this place is a nice throwback to a time when fried proteins were at the top of our Atlanta food pyramid." - jacinta howard

And you should head here specifically for a bucket of fried chicken with a side of nostalgia. The crunchy chicken has an herby spice mix (they won't tell you the recipe) that makes it extra savory. You can order the Party Barrel, either a half or whole bird, broken into four to eight pieces. And just like your bucket from back in the day, it comes with three sides—sweet corn on the cob, creamy mac and cheese, and buttery biscuits. It makes a hearty meal for your hungry family when you feel like promoting your track pants to dinner attire." - demarco williams, nina reeder, juli horsford, jacinta howard
"The happy hour at Roshambo at the Peachtree Battle shopping complex is no joke. Think $10 cocktails, wine and beer specials, pitchers of martinis, and snacks like disco tots tossed with bacon bits and pimento cheese, oysters, and a $10 hot chicken biscuit." - Eater Staff
