About the Business

History

Established in 1975.

Roscoe's House of Chicken and Waffles is a California-based soul food restaurant chain founded by Herb Hudson, a Harlem native, in 1975. We are best known for serving chicken and waffles, both together and separately, although we do offer other delicious soul food menu items such as greens, mac and cheese, candy yams, and more. Soon after it was opened, Hudson's friends in Motown and television, such as Natalie Cole, would spread the word to other celebrities. Redd Foxx would tell his audience that he came to Roscoe's. The Los Angeles Times refers to Roscoe's as "such an L.A. institution that people don't even question the strange combo anymore." The New York Times refers to it as a "beloved soul food chain". The original location in Hollywood remains popular with celebrities.
