People just have to let me know. They go to a restaurant in the greater Phoenix area, and they either loved it or hated it--there's not much in between! I created these pages so that you, the visitors to About Phoenix, could have your say. As for the rating, one star is the worst, five stars is the best.
Now, a word of warning--every once in a while I'll get a review from someone who has a specific agenda in mind. A really bad review might be from a disgruntled employee. A really good review might be from the owner or manager. Whatever! It's all for fun!
Comments about Ross's Hooked & Cooked

I don't even know how to begin to describe how pleased I was with Ross's Hooked and Cooked. Lets start with the decor, hardwood and decorative with an almost spead-easy kinda feel. The staff was attentive, pleasant and helpful without making us feel smotherd or hurried. The food.....the food was incredible. I had the Fried Chicken Dinner. The chicken was unbelievable, deep fried without being the slightest bit oily and seasoned so well I can honestly say I've never had better. I got the chicken with a side of red beans and rice and the best greens ever. My wife had the Seafood Gumbo and I couldn't stay away from it!!! Everything blended so well, the seafood and smoked sausage with the Creole seasonings over rice. I was able to taste every individual flavor, it's what Gumbo should be. Just when I thought it couldn't possible get any better out came the Peach Cobbler. The fragrance hit us befor the pie reached the table, all warmth and peach and cinnamon...there are no words for this perfect way to end our meal. I met the owner Mr. Ross. He was a very nice man and told me that he and his wife did all the cooking all day. I found Ross's Hooked and Cooked by accident and what a wonderful surprise it was, excellent food, great service and a really good time.

It is a clean establishment and cute. However the food is mediocre. I struggled with eating the yams and mac & cheese. The corn bread was more like a muffin. Nice people and very friendly but I was dissappointed!

It was really good. The food the service and the atmosphere were great! It is a family friendly place with sophistication and a great vibe. The sweet tea was perfect and the gumbo was delicious. No other place in Phoneix emits down home cooking like this place...trust me I'm a native and I've looked!

The best seafood in the desert. The crab cakes were the best I've ever had, anywhere!
