Juicy rotisserie chicken, savory sides, and delicious soft serve
"When your sibling has a reputation as iconic as Rich Table’s, you better perform. And RT Rotisserie’s slightly sweet fried chicken sandwich is equally brilliant and complex as anything you'd get at its sister restaurant, yet more lowkey in its genius. Beautifully seasoned chicken is topped with pickled onions, chipotle yogurt, and cabbage, then stuffed between a soft brioche bun. Stop by either their Hayes Valley or NoPa locations for your fix." - julia chen 1, lani conway, patrick wong
"RT Rotisserie is the casual offshoot of Rich Table, located a block away, but here they have a simple menu of roasted chicken, sandwiches, salads, and more. You can get half a bird for $13.20, which is one of the more affordable and filling meals you can find in the neighborhood. This place is super casual and they have wine both by the glass and bottle—it makes this one of our favorite spots to come for a casual midweek catch-up with a few friends." - julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez, patrick wong
"Rich Table's casual spin-off serves sandwiches, rice bowls, and roasted whole and half chickens. But what you really need to know about this place is they also have creamy soft serve. Sweet milk flavor is always on the menu, as is another that changes seasonally (expect to see things like mandarin orange, cantaloupe, and strawberry sorbet). If you can’t decide between the two, just get them swirled." - julia chen 1, lani conway, patrick wong
"This rotisserie-focused spinoff of Rich Table from chef-owners Sarah and Evan Rich has seating for diners who want to order their chicken, pork, or roasted cauliflower and linger for indoor dining — but it’s also aiming squarely at the growing delivery market (now to Peninsula customers, too, via a new Redwood City virtual kitchen). It is offering a full menu of its rotisserie items plain or in sandwich form, plus salads and even chicken soup." - Dianne de Guzman
"For something that’s healthy-ish, reasonably priced, and requires less effort than spotting a pair of Salomons in Hayes Valley, head to RT Rotisserie. The counter-service spot from the Rich Table team has nailed the art of a quick, filling meal—think sandwiches with creamy garlic aioli and a house salad packed with fresh herbs and cotija—all of which should be ordered with their well-seasoned rotisserie chicken. Lunch or dinner in the laidback space can easily last less than 45 minutes, but you should always take the time to end your meal with the seasonal soft serve (especially if it’s tangerine). photo credit: Krescent Carasso" - Julia Chen
