    The vibe there is very cool. We started with the biscuits which were amazing. The fried chicken is spot on and the shrimp and grits are a must if you like that dish. We sat in the bar and the bartender was attentive and made one heck of an Old Fashion. We’ll be back.

    This is one if our favorite places to eat. Delicious and elevated comfort food. The biscuits are a must have appetizer, the honey chicken jus for dipping is amazing. We had the pressed chicken, juicy and tender and the shrimp and grits, savory and spicy. The sweet tea brined fried chicken is also excellent. I honestly don't think you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. The service is great, friendly and attentive.

    Excellent food. Each dish is a unique chefs creation. The ribs are the best most creative I have ever had. Always a pleasure to try a new dish.

    Root & Bone is always excellent! The food and drinks are consistently created and served with care, and the service is top-notch (including Lindsey on our latest trip!). We've been to dinner and brunch several times, and it has become one of our neighborhood favorites.
