The Root Cafe is a charming vegetarian eatery in Lakewood, Ohio, offering a range of delicious drink and menu options, including the popular root wrap and vegan hot cheddar. The atmosphere is calming, with art showcased throughout, and the service is wonderful. While it can get busy, the chefs' nuanced flavor profiles and attention to heat levels make for a highly recommended dining experience.
The cafe has a decent selection of vegetarian and vegan dishes, with reasonable prices. However, some customers have noted inconsistencies in the quality of the food and service. The gluten-free wraps, in particular, have been described as disappointing, with issues such as poor texture and presentation. The cafe's use of oil-based sauces and vegan cheese has also been noted as making some dishes heavier and saltier than preferred by some customers.
Despite these occasional drawbacks, the Root Cafe remains a good vegetarian spot, with the chai tea latte being a highlight for many customers. The cafe's commitment to providing a calming atmosphere and nuanced flavors continues to make it a recommended dining experience.
