Food Hut RKE — Restaurant in Roanoke

Food Hut is the food you never knew you needed.

Do you like food? Do you like good food? Do you like classics done with absolute g'damn excellence? Do you like new twists on old favorites? Do you like sandwiches? Do you like chicken and waffles? Do you like donuts? Do you like eggs - I cannot remember the name of the Mexican-ish egg dish they have Sunday mornings, but you don't need to know it because we don't need them selling out faster than they already do. The chefs here are WICKED talented - they know how to flavor even the simplest of dishes to absolute perfection. Oh, the fries are also very legit - which is critical.

I've had to tell so many people, "look, I know it's in a little thing that looks a bit like a shack, but just trust me." They are always dubious, but then they try it and swear they've never had "X" (whatever it is they've ordered) better. It honestly doesn't even matter what you order, it's going to be good.

The only thing we haven't had (yet) are the pizzas on Mondays, but that's just due to scheduling (and forgetting). I do expect it's fabulous because the bar that Food Hut has is so high, there's no way it's anything else.

I went for the first time with my son and it was fresh and fabulous. The food was tasty, good quality, and delicious. So for date night decided to take my husband and it was dead awful. The oil soaked fries were under an equally greasy fish with the slaw thrown on top of it all. The whole container was soupy greasy soft wet mess. The chicken and fries were all oily and greasy as well, but the fries were especially bad. I was unable to eat any of the food from a costly $60 order (fish and chips, tenders, and a buffalo chicken sandwich)which was just highly disappointing. I can't recommend a place without some quality standards of what is allowed out of...

Great place to eat while spending time downtown…or close enough to drive to at 8:30 at night when you’re not downtown, like we’re getting ready to do. The food is unique, with the most savory, unique culinary choices of any place in the area. We split a sandwich (honey chicken), fries, and a caramel apple bread pudding (that’s what we’re heading downtown to get), and it was PLENTY for the two of us. The menu is not extensive, as the place is very small. But the choices they have need to be tried…every single one of them. Give them a visit! You will...
