If you’re already stressing about the holidays, we’re here to help. Thanksgiving should be the time for relaxing, making memories, and, of course, eating. Root and Branch is open on Thanksgiving and ready to serve you and your loved ones something unforgettable. We’ve got some surprises in store, but here’s what you can expect.
Chef-Made Thanksgiving Classics
We’re serving up a succulent turkey with all the trimmings. Every plate is chef-prepared and made to order. No bland, canned sides. No dry meat. No soggy stuffing. We’re making all your favorites from scratch, sourcing the highest-quality ingredients locally whenever possible. Is your mouth watering yet?
New Fall Drinks for Every Taste
One of the best things about enjoying a great meal is a hand-crafted or freshly-poured drink to sip with it. We’ve got a new fall drink menu for you to explore, highlighting fall flavors that perfectly complement that Thanksgiving bite. Need some suggestions? Here are a few our regulars love:
- Fashion Nut: Voted 2025’s Best Drink (Taste of South Lake), Bourbon fans love this blend of Buffalo Trace, Alpina Walnut Liqueur, pure maple syrup, and walnut bitters.
- Hemingway Six: Rich and rummy, this cocktail features Starr Oak Aged and Superior Rums, Luxardo Liqueur, Fresh Lime, Grapefruit, and simple syrup.
- That’s My Jam: We love the colors and flavors in this fruity, herbaceous cocktail made with Empress Indigo Gin, Chambord, house-made jam, mint, and soda
Made the Way You Like It
One of our favorite things about Thanksgiving is enjoying the meal you’ve been looking forward to all month, made just the way you like it. Luckily, that’s our MO every day at Root & Branch. We’re happy to customize your meal, dessert, appetizer, or cocktail to suit your tastes and avoid any food sensitivities. If you have any questions about what is (or isn’t) in a menu item, don’t hesitate to ask.
Inviting Ambiance
Nothing ruins the enjoyment of a great meal like unwanted clutter, noise, and distractions. The relaxed fine dining atmosphere at Root and Branch makes it the perfect place to gather around the table and catch up with your favorite people. We also offer private dining and group reservations to make any occasion special.
Stress-Free Dining for Everyone
It’s a shame that a day meant for resting in gratitude with family has become a day where so many of us end up frazzled and exhausted. If you don’t want the stressful grocery trips, the all-day cooking, or the all-night clean up, let this year be different. Start a new tradition with family-friendly fine dining at Root & Branch. We’re looking forward to serving up everyone’s Thanksgiving favorites with an elevated twist. Our fall cocktails promise to be the perfect pairing, and you can top everything off with decadent desserts. Sound good? Ditch the dishes and book your table at Root and Branch for Thanksgiving this year. We can’t wait to see you!
