The food was spectacular. Drinks and dessert may still need tinkering. But again, the food we had was better than some Michelin star restaurants I’ve been to. I will be running back for the food. We had the cauliflower salad, octopus, lamb tacos, and salmon and they were all around 9/10 or better. Wow.

I had an outstanding dinner at ROOP! It was my first time and I will absolutely be back. The food was incredible, but what stood out to me most was the fantastic service! Adam was such a kind and attentive waiter. The manager even came over to personally ask us how our dining experience was and what they could do better. I said nothing, you have gone above and beyond! Fun tip, we ordered tea and it came it a beautiful fancy tea pot! Really appreciate the care Adam and team put into making sure we enjoyed our time at ROOP :)
