    Julia Was our waitress, and she was very attentive. Chef Ron visited our table to show us our steak. She went out of her way to give us a very special evening. Thank you. We look forward to our next visit.

    Service was very good, staff was pleasant, unfortunately the food was not very good. Both our steaks were a bit tough and not very much flavor. For the price of dinner we expected a better cut of meat.

    We celebrated our 60th wedding anniversary at Southern Roots. Our server was outstanding. He made us feel very special. The food was very good as was the ambiance. We had spent our honeymoon at that hotel so the recent experience was very meaningful.
