    Always a fun experience at Cap City. It's my go-to place. The food is always consistent, the staff is professional and friendly, and great atmosphere. Prices have gone up a lot. That is the only downfall!

    It was a slow evening for the restaurant so I couldn’t tell how the service would be when busier. Over though the service and food were good.

    Solid place to get food and beer, cocktails, wine, etc. We all enjoyed our food quite a bit. The eggplant, avocado/pineapple dip, and kale salad were good. My guests reported good burgers and fries. And my other guests enjoyed their salmon salad. The charcuterie board was disappointing, especially for the price. It was very underwhelming, and presentation was fair at best. All the beers we tried were actually pretty good. None of us ordered a cocktail. Ambiance is nice. Didn't love that we were forced (all of us under 5 ft 3 - to sit on a high top with our feet dangling) - had made a reso and when I inquired about the table at check-in was told it would be over an hour for a regular table. I wish I would have known and requested this up front. Overall, however, I do recommend Forbidden Root - and would return again.

    The double nickel salad is our favorite salad from any restaurant. We split the Wild mushroom pizza. The happy hour price for the pizza makes it a very delicious meal at a reasonable price. Our server was Tia and she is a gem - very friendly and knowledgeable. She kept our glasses full and checked on us throughout the Mel.
