If you like specialty sushi rolls, ramen, noodle bowls, crepes, and fresh squeeze mocktails in one beautiful clean establishment with high ceilings and friendly service, then Roots is for you. Large size portions using fresh ingredients. The mandarin crepe ala mode is not too sweet and very special.

Do not eat their Thai dishes. Thai is my favorite cuisine and this is by far the worst Thai food I have had in my life. I sent the pad Thai back and they asked if I wanted to try something else so I tried the drunken noodle and that dish was just as bad. When I got the check, they did not take off the pad Thai so I ended up paying for two meals unbelievable.

Impeccable Asian food restaurant, we went on Sunday, it was full, however they didn't give a month very quickly, I ordered ramen, sushi and a bowl, the three dishes were incredible, the service is good and it is very clean. The decoration is very nice, recommended to share with friends, partner or family

I think this place has Taiwanese origins, because their Beef Noodle Soup was as good as what I've had in New York and in my visit to Taiwan. I'll return to try other items on the menu for sure!
Great food, nice atmosphere, not especially friendly server.. even tho it wasn't busy.

I recently visited Roots in Princeton upon a recommendation from a friend, and we both went for dinner. We arrived around 7 pm, and though the restaurant was moderately busy, there was plenty of seating available. We were seated comfortably at a table for four. The ambiance was decent, with a quiet and relaxed atmosphere—perfect for a casual dinner with a friend. It doesn’t scream luxury, but it’s inviting and comfortable.
For drinks, I was about to order a Coke when my friend suggested trying their fresh juices. I opted for the fresh carrot, celery, and ginger juice, while my friend went for the pineapple, green apple, and ginger juice. Both juices were incredibly fresh, cold, and delicious—a refreshing start to the meal!
The menu had a variety of unique options, and while I was figuring out what to order, my friend, who had been there before, suggested a couple of dishes. We chose the Thai Basil dish, stir-fried with vegetables and rice, seasoned perfectly with basil and spices. The second dish was Lo Mein, a stir-fried noodle dish with vegetables. Both dishes were superb, and we shared them between us. The flavors complemented each other well, and the food was truly outstanding.
One of the highlights of the evening was the incredibly friendly and attentive service. Our waitress noticed we ordered vegetarian dishes and thoughtfully asked if it was okay to use fish oil for the stir-fry. We were really impressed by her attention to detail and appreciated her asking, to which we replied no.
After dinner, we stayed for quite a long time, chatting and catching up. There was another group dining a little further away, and at one point, we asked what time they closed. To our surprise, we were told they had already closed! The staff had been so polite and considerate, never rushing us or making us feel like we needed to leave. It wasn’t until we noticed the waiters and waitresses having their own dinner at a table that we realized how late it was. We left after finishing our long chat, feeling very welcome and appreciative of the friendly and polite staff.
Overall, it was an awesome dining experience. The food was flavorful and fresh, and the staff went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. I highly recommend Roots if you're in Princeton and looking for a place with delicious Asian-inspired cuisine and exceptional service!

Expensive but good to eat once in awhile. I highly recommend trying shrimp hargrow as an appetizer before ordering the of your meal.
Went twice, my favorite was the thai coconut bowl - all bowls can be made vegan. The sause was very flavorful and the vegetables made to a perfect point. Wish the menu would specify what's vegan and what's vegeterian.
