★★★★★ 5.0 Jacob Hill · Feb 2026

Really fantastic food and service, atmosphere respectable prices for the high quality. I got an Asian salad and it was spicy and amazing, had great flavor. Everyone I ate with enjoyed their food.

At first I thought this was a bar and grille but was pleasantly surprised. American fresh food that was very flavorful! I had the Beet Salad and the blend of flavors were perfect! They have a lot of vegan and gluten free choices and you can add a protein, (I added chicken to my salad) if you prefer. Would definitely go back and the service was very responsive and friendly.

We had a great time at Roots95. Server was attentive and helpful, without being hovering or pushy. Food and drinks came out quickly and were delicious. Restaurant was clean and inviting. We were really glad to discover this place and we'll definitely return soon!

★★★★☆ 4.0 Ashley Boatright · Jan 2026

The atmosphere is a little cramped for our liking. We had a 2-top on the "booth" side and felt like we had no elbow room between the wall and the neighboring 4-top next to us. our server had no room to stand next our table and instead had to stand awkwardly behind my fiancé and lean over his shoulder basically to talk to us and deliver food. She was great personality wise, but could have kept us topped-up on refills and clearing our table a little more frequently. Other than that, my fiancé (never satisfied with his burger size/flavor/ and often complains about soggy burgers from restaurants) said that his Wagyu burger was the best burger he's had a restaurant that he can remember, so we appreciate that! (He also loved the fries!) The Bang Bang shrimp is a must-have if we ever make it ba

★★★★★ 5.0 Kent Altemeier · Jul 2024

Make reservations. We started with cocktails and were pleased with flavors, but alcohol was light. Korean short ribs and spinach and artichoke potstickers were excellent. Loved the roasted pear and blue cheese flatbread, but was light on blue cheese. Hangar steak was very flavorful and you can't go wrong with the parmesan fries. Needed salt and pepper at the table. Staff was average but had issues with the Toast platform. Will return.
