    We came at a super packed lunch time on the weekend. Our server was attentive. Drinks were phenomenal. Biscuits were amazing. We both got the fried chicken sandwich. It was great just a touch overcooked for our liking. Just the slightest. Definitely will be back in the future to try more items.

    Our dinner and drinks were outstanding. I had the fried chicken and my husband had the ribs. The portion sizes were just right. We both had the Daisy Mae tequila drink and shared the Banana Creme Brulee. Highly recommend!

    Bartenders were fun & engaging, enjoyed our cocktails before sitting down for dinner. The food was very good, I had the shrimp & grits and it was very tasty. My husband had the ribs and they were excellent! My daughter and her boyfriend had the fried chicken w/ Mac and cheese which they both really enjoyed. We also ordered the angel biscuits for the table, some of the best ever. Our daughter attends Butler University and this was our second visit to Root & Bone, we love it it & will definitely be back.

    This was our first time dining at Root and Bone. I wish we had tried it sooner as everything including the ambiance, food and service were excellent! We will definitely be back as there were so many more delicious items we would like to enjoy. Highly recommend this dining experience!
