“Best Chicken in Cincinnati”

Selling over 10,000 pieces of chicken each week, Ron’s Roost has been family owned and operated since 1960. What started out as a 20 seat diner in 1960 has grown to a full service restaurant & bar that now seats 250 customers along with a separate carry out area & covered patio. Ron’s Roost is very proud to have been voted Cincinnati’s Best Fried Chicken(Cincinnati Enquirer) and also winner of the Best Dish at the annual Taste of Cincinnati.
