Root & Branch Bistro + BarExcellentRoot & Branch Bistro + Bar4.7★★★★☆ Based on 1344 reviews fromSee all reviews review us onJon GJon G ★★★★★ We should have come sooner! Ambiance, food, service and cocktails were excellent 👍💯. We showed up around 6pm and were seated right away, within an hour it started filling up. We tried the pork belly, amazing, crispy outside and super tender inside. Old fashioned and margaritas were on point! For dinner, burgers were very tasty, pork wellington and salmon were delicious, everything was tasted around the table and everything was given nods and mmmmmmm's. Cream brule was served cold, little dense which was different, but still tasty. Overall, great place to celebrate or take guests! We will be back! 😁marco ruedamarco rueda ★★★★★ We had a wonderful dinner. The food was delicious. Their service was outstanding and we love the atmosphere highly recommend this place. Ambar was wonderful!!!JoAnne FerraroJoAnne Ferraro ★★★★★ Dined for the first time yesterday, the food was delicious, wonderful presentation. All the staff was very friendly, all ready book again for bunch!Melody RoseMelody Rose ★★★★★ We took our in-laws for their anniversary dinner and everything was chefs kiss 😘. The Original pork Chop was incredible. We’ll definitely be back!Desiree McConnellDesiree McConnell ★★★★★ The food was very good as well as the service. The pork belly lollipops were delicious but then again so was everything else we ate. The atmosphere was relaxed and it was great for having dinner with my cousins. Very good!Straunje AustinStraunje Austin ★★★★★ Delicious, Delicious, Delicious!!! The chef is amazing and made awesome accommodations for my friends who has an immune deficiency. Will definitely be back !Jean MainaJean Maina ★★★★★ McNulty was an excellent waiter. He was very personable and friendly. His service was excellent. He is a great people person, a terrific waiter and answered all our questions. A great assertion to any restaurant.David PerazaDavid Peraza ★★★★★ Amazing food and great service by Bartender Matthew . We've only been here twice but I was super impressed that he not only remembered what we drank, but also what we ate! The pork belly lollipops were out of this world. Brussel sprouts also great. We also had the steak and au gratin potatoes equally as good!! We drove 30 minutes just to come back here for dinner! Sooooo good ! Oh and make sure you ask them to fry your bread pudding 🤤JoAnn GoulartJoAnn Goulart ★★★★★ Food was Delicious.. Best Fish Sandwich I Ever had! The Bourbon Burger was excellent!Andrianna SaporitaAndrianna Saporita ★★★★★ Honestly, we came in with high expectations and they were exceeded. The food is well priced, delicious, and unfortunately so yummy that I forgot to take a picture before I ate it. (Sorry) I ordered the crab cakes, Brussels sprouts and my friend ordered the bourbon burger. Their drink menu is really cute (and clearly curated in house), and the wine menu has a pretty solid offering of wine selections. I ordered Chardonnay and she ordered a Martini. I sometimes question small restaurants and having corked wine-but that is not the case here. Everything is fresh, delicious, and yummy. Both drinks were wonderful. The only thing I would say is that the crab cakes had chunks of bell peppers-which just isn’t for me. The flavor of everything was on point. The service was wonderful, and the manager walks around and checks on everything. I saw him darting between the kitchen and the front of the house to check on guests and food, and clearing tables. I didn’t get his name, but our server’s name was Amber. Small businesses are struggling right now, and this is a place I would be sad to see go. I would highly recommend coming here for a good bite and good service, in an unexpected location.Emily OwensEmily Owens ★★★★★ We had the most incredible time at Root & Branch! The food, service, and staff were absolutely wonderful. They accommodated us for our wedding rehearsal lunch, about 27 people, and absolutely went above and beyond!I highly recommend them! The fried green tomatoes are also out of this world. Definitely the most incredible people and establishment in all of the area! We LOVE them!Marie Cameron- REALTOR- GRIMarie Cameron- REALTOR- GRI ★★★★★ Master Chef David planned our Valentine's dinner 💖 for my guests of honor. Dr. May speaks many languages and has traveled the world and said our chef's table dining experience was the BEST in CLERMONT! Her favorite was the lightly coated cod with asparagus. I enjoyed many of the surf and turf options but the award winning Fried Green Tomato with remoulade was surprisingly MY favorite. Each plate was colorfully decorated with pretty micro greens.The house French Rose wine was the perfect compliment to our meal. The service and timing of the dinner was ON POINT. Just when I thought we savored so many wonderful variety of plates to taste- Chef David and crew prepared a dessert board! Everyone raved about the caramelized French toast creation. I couldn't get enough of the light and fluffy strawberry layered trifle. Much appreciation for a memorable evening. I voted for you as best dinner for South Lake Chamber.Christopher McCormackChristopher McCormack ★★★★★ Food was amazing, drinks were delightful. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for delicious cuisine in a fun atmosphere.Evan BaruchEvan Baruch ★★★★★ I am a manager here and I just had the best chicken dish I have ever had! The food here is fantastic! Made from scratch!!!Timothy SaccoTimothy Sacco ★★★★★ I flew 2000 miles for the pork belly lollipops and the pork chops. I will be flying back here again. My wife loved the fried green tomatoes and the shrimp scampi. She loved it. The atmosphere is great. You must try the Fashion Nut. The best version of an old fashioned that I've ever had.Bravo!Victoria OldhamVictoria Oldham ★★★★★ We came to Root annd Branch after a day of paddle boarding and had an amazing experience. We barely made it to happy hour and are so glad we did. First off our waitress Sara was so friendly and courteous! The food was absolutely amazing and the drinks were high-quality and delicious.

Will definitely be back soonYatzer BaezYatzer Baez ★★★★★ Wow! Delicious menu and great atmosphere. Chef David outdid himself with our food. We enjoyed the delicious fried tomato appetizer, the mozzarella, and tried the pork belly and was spectacular! We also had the sirloin steak and the pork chop entree and it was cooked to perfection. Each meal was flavorful and you can tell that their menu was crafted tastefully. In the end we finished with their delicious bread pudding with ice cream. You will not regret eating anything from their menu. Highly recommend for date night, dinners with family or to enjoy on your own.
