    First time at Root & Bone and really enjoyed dinner. The staff was very friendly and our server (Maggie) was attentive and courteous. Tried the biscuits and they were delicious. I think the menu and food choices has something for everyone. Thanks for a wonderful experience.

    My husband and I were on a little getaway. We prefer local restaurants and this one is a must! Loved the vibe! We had the fried chicken and Mac and cheese. Wonderful! Moist and tasty! Outstanding service also! We will definitely go back when we are in the area.

    We sat in the front which has sort of a sports-bar vibe. The food is so-so. BBQ ribs are way too sweet. Deserts are bland (tasteless creme brulee with a couple banana chunks on top = total fail). Beet tartar appetizer is outstanding however. All and all, way overpriced for the atmosphere and quality/flavor of the food.

    First time for several of us in party of 6. Quickly and enthusiastically seated on time, friendly and efficient waitress, excellent food provided in reasonable time. Unique venue and not too loud ambience despite full house.
