Root'd

I had heard a lot about this place before I had visited. I finally decided to give it a try and was not disappointed. I went with their breakfast burrito and you also have the option to smother your hashbrowns with cheese which I would highly recommend doing. We also tried their French toast sandwich, which was very, very delicious. I would definitely come back here. I would recommend everyone to try Root’d out at least once.

My friend and I were very impressed with the layout of the restaurant. They had outdoor seating and we took it knowing it is fall and we could get chilled. But we didn't mind. That is what hot tea is for. The patio we sat in had painted murals on the brick work. It was very nice. We ordered the roasted brussels sprouts to whet our appetite. We were pleasantly whetted. ;) I tell you, they put the best roast on those sprouts, they were perfectly cooked, perfectly seasoned, and the crunch melt factor was spot on!! The portion of the appetizer was very generous but not overwhelming. I ordered the salmon with quinoa, and my bestie ordered the chicken over rice. From what I could see from our dining neighbors, the dishes at Root'd are down home, comfort food. (As they should be). Simple ingredients turned into audible happy "oh my gosh you gotta try this" comments, dancing chews in our mouths! The Salmon was perfectly cooked, the portion was very fair, with a generous helping of quinoa. The greens that were served as a complement to the meal enhanced the flavor that much more. I was served a half lemon that had been grilled to perfection. I have no problem eating a lemon peel especially when it has been grilled. The grilled lemon topped the salmon perfectly. My meal was so tasty, I ate it slow to savor all of the wonderful flavor. My bestie said the chicken was very good, not dry at all, the flavors were very savory, and the rice complemented the meal very well. She said the greens that were served with her meal also complemented the chicken very well. It also came with a roasted lemon and roasted tomatoes. She said it was very delicious. We selected the ever-famous Beignets for dessert. The were rolled thin, fried to fluffy perfection, topped with confectioners' sugar and served with raspberry sauce on the side. It was getting chilly now, the server, Emily, who was very effervescent, happy, friendly and helpful brought me a hot cup of chamomile tea. She was very nice, she spoke to everyone whom she encountered. She was very sweet and attentive. I believe a person who works hard serving a customer, deserves a generous tip. She was helpful with her co-workers and their customers. I base my tipping on those factors. She brought out a cup of hot tea. That first sip of the heated water cascaded down my throat and into my tummy and filled me with a warmth that I did not expect. It was a very soothing cup of tea. One I will make my way back to Root'd for, and a repeat of our wonderful dinner out. We plan to dine inside next time. Plus we will take our honey bunches and we plan to order completely different entrees as this time.

Food Quality: 5/5 Service: 5/5 (it was really a 6/5) Cleanliness: 5/5 Value: 5/5 Where has this been my whole life? Wow! This 7-Eleven, turned into a restaurant is not one to pass up. I attended a dinner event here that had it all - the amazing food, live music, fantastic staff and an enthusiastic owner, Sean, who has so much passion for what he does. Our table ordered the roasted brussel sprouts as recommended by our wonderful server, Emily (huge shout out!!), we each had the Brighton Balsamic Greens, then our entrees included: Steak and Frites, a French Dip sandwich, and salmon and quinoa. We finished the night with their cute and puffy beignets - heavenly little pillows. We also got to try their mocktails - polar bear and another drink I forgot the name of, but it was fruity and delicious! What an incredible dinner showcasing what Root’d can do! Can’t wait to come back to try the rest of the menu for brunch and dinner again!
