The Roasting Company - Montford

As many times as I’ve passed by this street I never knew this place was here. I had the southern bbq wrap which comes on a sun dried tomato tortilla. I was a little skeptical because of the tortilla but it was actually really good and a pretty decent size at that the apples weren’t bad either.They have a lot of options on their menu that would make you wanna try them all.

Roasting Company is an old standard that’s dependable, always worth the trip, and uniquely special. If it’s the Jaco chicken and rice or the pasta salad, there’s no other restaurant that has these options or menu choices. Sure it’s not fancy or expensive but that’s the charm and allure of the place. If there was a “ Cheers “ in Charlotte, Roasting Company would fill that role with food. I’ve been coming here since I arrived in Charlotte single and poor. Now I bring my grown children, who have once again made me single (divorced) and poor. Notwithstanding I always feel comfortable and at peace at the Roasting Company.

A vegetarian friend to lunch there today and even though its chicken restaurant, they have more than adequate vegetarian options. Great chicken, great vegetables. Katie, behind the counter, was more than happy to assist us and make recommendations on our order. Thanks Katie. Try the Jaco Sauce! Vegetarian options: They have about 25 different side or vegetable options.

First time eating from this restaurant and I will be back to eat at the restaurant. My chicken was delicious and the sides were awesome and that cornbread was the best!!!

Fabulous food!! Wish I lived closer!!

Great chicken! The sides were average. But overall enjoyable.

The food was delicious!! We will be back for sure!! The only suggestion I have is to update the dining area. It is somewhat outdated and wasn't very tidy/clean. Dirty dishes remained on the tables for a while after people finished eating.

I was extremely disappointed on the size of the 3 vegetable plate that I got as takeout. I hadn't been to the Roasting Company lately, but portions had never been this small. I ordered the collard greens, mashed sweet potatoes and smoke cheese pasta salad. The pasta salad and sweet potatoes were good but the collards were tasteless. They were put in the smallest plastic container that was then out in the white takeout container with dividers. The last time I got takeout, the food was put in the dividers in the takeout container. I will not be ordering this again. I got way little food for the price that was paid.
