I have been to root and bone for multiple occasions; our daughter’s engagement, date nights, friend dinners. This by far was the worst dining experience we’ve ever had here. Drew was an amazing server and did a great job of checking in. Our drinks were great, however the chicken clearly sat under a warmer or was pre-cooked because it was dry and gummy (was told that it was a common practice). It was just not great. The waffle was delicious. Drew offered to remake it, but we were at the end of our meal. He gave us five dollars off of our bill, but I won’t be back for a while. Truly disappointed to see a neighborhood gem taking shortcuts on a menu staple.

Great food quality, portions and presentation. Root & Bone offers a variety of different entrees with great flavor. Not your typical menu which is great for trying new things. They also offer a good kids menu that my children were able to choose from. Overall great experience. Will definitely be back!

This was my third time. Table was ready for our reservation. Place was packed for Sunday brunch. Service attentive. Fried chicken and waffles always good. Gravy a bit peppery for the biscuits and gravy. Overall good.

Hard to describe how bland the food was. Nice place but not one single thing we ordered was even remotely good. We got the duck and the pork chops. Awful. Even the choc pecan dessert was just bland and not good. Idk. I read reviews like this and think they are fake. All I can say is try it for yourself. Best of luck. It was not good at all for us and we won’t be back.

The vibe there is very cool. We started with the biscuits which were amazing. The fried chicken is spot on and the shrimp and grits are a must if you like that dish. We sat in the bar and the bartender was attentive and made one heck of an Old Fashion. We’ll be back.
