Root & Branch Bistro + BarExcellentRoot & Branch Bistro + Bar4.7★★★★☆ Based on 1398 reviews fromSee all reviews review us onMark ElliottMark Elliott ★★★★★ Central Florida, where I have been coming for twenty years (my mother relocated here in retirement) is not known as a food destination - apart from BBQ, burgers, and Mexican, the choices for visitors are limited. So if you're in the area and looking for inventive cuisine, you owe it to yourself to try this place. It's not a great location and the ambience is a little lacking, but the food and the service are top-notch. Chef David Henry trained for a spell in Bobby Flay's kitchen in NYC and spent a decade on Martha's Vineyard - he definitely knows what he is doing. The menu is selective and everything we have had over two visits has been excellent. Among appetizers, highly recommend the brussels sprouts, fried green tomatoes, onion soup, and fish tacos. The grilled romaine caesar salad with pancetta is unusual and quite successful. The pork Wellington is bursting with flavor, and the short rib ravioli are unctuous. Love the bread puddings and the chocolate cakes. Wine list is not long but has some gems. Service is knowledgeable, professional, and authentically friendly. If I lived here, I would eat here once a week. Highly recommend.Lizzard ALizzard A ★★★★★ Will be back! Everything we ordered was delicious!Bistro Onion Soup, Grilled Peach Salad. Pork Wellington unique and utterly fantastic. Topped off with the creamiest Bread Pudding.David JohnsonDavid Johnson ★★★★★ Very relaxing atmosphere with great music! Food and service were excellent!

The food here takes you on a delicious culinary trip! The hosted was kind, and our server Ambar was full of joy and informative seeing as it was our first time visiting!! Ambar took excellent care of us, thanks again Ambar! We enjoyed the fried green tomatoes and the crab cakes first.

Such a divine light! I had vegan restrictions and she and the chef worked hard to make me a special meal that far exceeded my expectations In every way! Will come back just to experience the kindness and attentiveness of Amber and the best food ever!sandy ginebrasandy ginebra ★★★★★ I did not eat here as of yet but I will in the future because I met one of your most beautiful bartenders at a nearby 7-Eleven the way that she carried herself in Elegance I knew that she worked for somewhere fancy so I asked her where she worked and she named your restaurant she's so beautiful and she must make a lot of money I'm a server myself but for a different type of ambience... With that being said I'm a mom of five children and I only had $6 to put into my tank which I did she was behind me I told her to have a wonderful day... I go outside and I start pumping my gas and sure enough it passes $6 enough to fill up my whole tank which I started to freak out because I thought the girl inside and made a mistake and I'm thinking in my head how am I going to pay this... Nope you're beautiful angel of a bartender was leaving told me to have a good day I asked her if she had done this and she told me yes and she told me that God is good and that everybody deserves a hand... Well I need to give kudos ty her thank you she blessed me that she's an angel and that you guys have a wonderful person on your team she's a light-eyed bartender she looks like she's Spanish with beautiful eyesAlena DrvosAlena Drvos ★★★★★ What a treasure of dinning experience. The food, service Tast and dish presentation was outstandingPhil PecoraroPhil Pecoraro ★★★★★ I’ve been meaning to try this place for a while, and 4 of us finally had dinner here tonight. I made a reservation online, and received email and text confirmation. We arrived on time and were promptly seated.Root and Branch did not disappoint! Our meals were great, delicious with a beautiful presentation. The pork chop was a “chef’s favorite”, and it quickly became mine too. I ordered it medium rare, and it was cooked to perfection, really juicy. The broccolini was very tasty, and it also came with mashed potatoes. The pan roasted cod was also really good, tender, flaky and delicious.Our friends had the flatbread and a burger and enjoyed their meal. We followed dinner with the chef’s crème brûlée, and the four of us shared it. Quite good.Our waiter did a great job, friendly, explaining things on the menu, refilling our water, making sure everything was good. The food arrived in a timely manner, fresh from the kitchen.The atmosphere is good, with a beautiful, although empty, bar in the center of the restaurant. They do have a nice outdoor seating area, but perhaps it was too warm tonight and no one was sitting there.The pork chop was $29, the cod was $38, and the dessert was $13. We all were happy and satisfied and agreed we will be back.Diane HouseDiane House ★★★★★ Ambar was an incredible server, pleasant and thoughtful. It was great to meet Jason too! The Brussels sprouts, and fried green tomatoes were absolutely amazing! They knocked it out of the park with their wine list! Thank you for a wonderful evening!N BassettN Bassett ★★★★★ Three of us had cheesesteak while our Vegan friend ate the mushroom dish. We were all very happy. Really enjoyed the service Lisa provided, she was kind, friendly and had a super beautiful smile 😊 The food tasted incredibly fresh and seasoned perfectly. I will definitely be back.js_loader
