The Ginger Root offers a welcoming atmosphere and exceptional food. The prime rib is a standout dish, with a rich flavor and reasonable price. The homemade potatoes au gratin is also a highlight, with an unbeatable flavor. The restaurant offers a range of drinks, including the Virgin Pina Colada, which is highly recommended. The staff is friendly and helpful. The food was great, hot, and good quality. The fried country low boil was very tasty, with plenty of shrimp, sausage, and potatoes. The cluster of crab legs were awesome. This is some of the best food eaten in Alabama and worth the drive. Everyone at the table raved about the food.
