What Genesis Harvey doesn't like about Local Roots Restaurant:
Local Roots was loud and crowded last night but I noticed that from the waitstaff to the management no smiled or seemed happy. The food portions are tiny but tasty, my three one inch square pieces of trout arrived a nest of greens and herbs for the price I would have liked less fluff and more trout. The other entree was grits with eggs and bacon, a huge bowl of grits that again was the filler for the rest of the dish... View all feedback. What yumyum likes about Local Roots Restaurant:
Great food. The menu is a bit limited due to the nature of the locally sourced format. Limited options for gluten-free desserts. Overall, though would recommend this restaurant, just check the menu for the night you are going to see if it can accommodate your needs. View all feedback.

Eating local made awesome. Wonderful food and attentive yet unobtrusive service in a great atmosphere.

Local Roots restaurant offers a dining experience that incorporates locally sourced ingredients prepared with elegance and dynamic flavors. While some reviewers have shared negative experiences, such as high prices for side dishes and lack of ventilation in the kitchen, others have highlighted the great food and welcoming atmosphere. The ever-changing menu offers a variety of delicious options, from fried mushrooms to tacos carnitas, and the service has been praised as charming. Overall, Local Roots provides a unique and enjoyable dining experience for those looking to try new flavor combinations in a cozy setting.

Great place! They may have been bit understaffed for our Saturday night dinner. I think I would plan to go earlier for service efficiency and noise level
