We're still here for lunch during the week though!

Seared Shish*tos with Oranges and Preserved Lemon Vinaigrette, the roulette of vegetable sides. Somewhere around one in ten shish*tos are spicy... but which one is it?? 🌶️ 🤔

The last but certainly not least all-star team member is Hector!

Hector is one of the original team members, going way back to our old kitchen and our old business name. For four years he has been the backbone of the restaurant and god help us if we have to figure out what to do without him. Thank you Hector for your relentless dedication!

Bonus picture: Medardo fixing Hector's shirt for photo time, which may be the best photo on here.

The Chicken Quinoa Bowl: everyone's favorite catering item, now available on our everyday menu.

Every morning as we prepare our catering meals, this is the dish that always comes out on top. We're talking dozens and dozens every day. So it was about time that anyone could order it any time.

Order Now link in bio, cause delivering lunch is our thing.

The next member of our All-Star team to appreciate: Medardo!

Medardo is the newest member of the team, although it's hard to image what we did without him. He really and truly gets what it is we do here: make reliably delicious food with the aim of providing the team with reliably great jobs and benefits. And it shows in his dedication and enthusiasm.

Medardo can be seen here enthusiastically demonstrating laying out compostable boxes 😆 which TBH is a major activity around here.

The real stars of The Roost, our amazing team, have gotten little or no screen time on social media. Today that changes... first up: Luis!

Luis has been with us for 3 years now, playing the invaluable role of part-time-pinch-hitter. In other words, Luis is always here to help when we're in the weeds. Thank you, thank you Luis for always being here when we need you. ⭐

Luis can be seen here packing up our All Day Kitchens order, known around here solely as "Las Cajas" (The Boxes).

Quinoa & Chickpea Salad... we've stuck with it, giving it several make overs over time. And this week it is the fan favorite.

Maybe it's the weather? 🤷‍♀️ Whatever the reason, y'all love it and we got it! We've even put an ordering button on here so that you can try it too.
