Rustic Root

We did a rooftop dinner for 2. I had the shrimp as an appetizer. She had the meatballs. For the entree I had the Bobster roll, she had the...........shrimp and grits (sorry I had to remember what she got). Food and drink pacing was just right. Unfortunately I cannot remember the waitress we had (the only thing I remember is she is from Tallahassee) but she was fantastic. Very attentive, came around at the right times and was just a peach to have conversations with. 10/10 will recommend/be back again.

First time trying Rustic Root. Ambience was nice. Drinks & service were good. I had the pork belly fried rice. It was good, but the portions were too small. It was mostly just rice, an egg & 4 tiny little chopped dry meat pieces on the side of the plate. I was hoping there would be more meat under the egg but there was none. I would come back for coffee and drinks but not the food though. I paid 16$ for the belly rice but it was just not worth it for 4 little pieces. I could have gotten more food from other restos with a side for 16$ but this is just not worth the price. My fiance also got the egg dish breakfast item and even he was still hungry after we ate. Hopefully they’d be able to modify their portions or at least adjust the price for the quantity of the food for their breakfast items. I love food and I’m just really disappointed with what I was served.

Definitely get table upstairs! Make reservation via link on google! Pricy place though that seems to be all off gaslamps neighborhood. Good service and great food! All cocktails was delicious … More
