Menu

On this site, you will find the comprehensive menu of The Red Roost from Quantico. Currently, there are 25 dishes and drinks available.

Nestled in a rustic setting, this restaurant draws mixed sentiments from diners. While some rave about delightful dishes like clam corn chowder and fried chicken, others express disappointment over underwhelming seafood and inconsistent service.

For those seeking consistency, it may be best to tread cautiously before indulging in its offerings.

Was Anonym at The Red Roost a mag?
I am giving this restaurant a four-star rating because most of the time they are on point. However, during a recent visit with a guest from out of town, our clams were overcooked and I had to ask twice for them. The waitress seemed to struggle to understand our order and had to clarify it multiple times before getting it right. She was polite, but there was some confusion. The restaurant did not offer to replace the... View all feedback.

What Anonym dislikes about The Red Roost:
My last visit in the fall of 2021 for all-you-can-eat crabs was very enjoyable. However, my visit in May 2022 for dinner was a disappointment. I ordered the crabcake and ribs combo.

Not sure what has happened. This used to be our go-to place for crabs. The fries, hush puppies, chicken and corn were all cold. Crabs were so small I’m not sure they were legal. We had to walk to the kitchen to ask for Old Bay because we weren’t given any and even after asking, they didn’t bring any. They were not busy at all and we can see why.
