Roostertail just recently opened in the space occupied by Cafe Kati for several years. The emphasis here is on Rotisserie Chicken (6.5 for a quarter, white meat) pictured here. You can buy a half or whole as well. While the meat was tender it was also a little dry. You have a choice of pesto or sweet BBQ sauce to dip into, which helps with the dryness. I chose a side of Onion Strings (4.5) and some Brisket Baked Beans (4). The strings were mercifully free of batter and quite tasty, but could have been cooked at a higher temp - they're currently cooked at 350 degrees - to retain less cooking oil. The beans were somewhat bland, lacking any sweetness from molasses or brown sugar, and the brisket didn't have a good smoky flavor which would have enhanced the taste.
You can choose from a number of salads, sandwiches, beef and pork dishes if chicken isn't on your agenda. I'll give it a 3 on the Food-O-Meter.
