Who would think that a major city level Restaraunt / Taphouse would be in a town with under 2000 people. Dale the owner and bartender made excellent recommendations.
I loved it the first night and returned the second night I was in town.
The menu offers American hand held foods (Burgers, nachos, sandwiches). The pizzas looked axing although I did not have one. I devoured the delicious and comforting tortellini dish. It was as good as any I have had in any restaurant. The following I had night the beef tips over a bowl of rice and mixed salad. Delicious and a complete meal. The only regret I had was that they did not have an in house bakery chef, and the options offered were not to the level of the food served. Nonetheless I highly recommend going out of your way to eat, have a drink, and relax in the recently renovated Main Street building.

We drove here from out of town. The food and the service were both amazing! The menu is very diverse with options for everybody. I highly recommend and we’ll definitely be back. It is worth the drive!

Roots catered our wedding rehearsal supper and our wedding ceremony! The food was amazing. Amy did a food tasting prior to the big day. The homemade cheesecake is the best! This is our second wedding and we would highly recommend Roots for any occasion or just a night out!!

Really great spot! Service was amazing and the people are really nice. Great atmosphere, everything is clean and seating options are great. Food was great but I would leave some suggestions to make it better. 1. I wish they had homemade ranch, the ranch tastes like hidden valley which kind of made me sad. My favorite part of a good restaurant is when they make their own ranch that tastes ten times better. 2. One time I went, the beer bread came out warm and it was amazingggg! The other time it came out cold and was not great. So I would suggest serving it warm! 3. The Mac and cheese you can get from there is super good and you can even add meat, I got the pulled pork added, but I would suggest adding a bbq sauce drizzle on top of the meat to add more flavor. 4. Some of the meals come out in this like a cardboard dish kind of on a plate?? Anyways it makes me think that it was just warmed up like a freezer meal and not like cooked right on the spot, if that makes sense. I would just not have it like that as it makes it look cheap in a way I guess?

Called in an order for a few pizzas for takeout. Showed up to pick them up literally 10 minutes later and they were already done. Decided to have a few drinks at the bar before we took them back to our cabin. Bartender was great very good customer service and the pizza was amazing.. we will definitely make this a stop every time we come up to Webster fishing!!!

Amazing food and service. And they open sundays :D I'll be back one of these days to try the beers. They had a pretty varied drinks menu.

First time visit. The pecan encrusted tilapia was delicious. The menu was surprisingly diverse (there were 3 Louisiana-style dishes). The side dishes appetizers were generous and good.

First time eating here, we drove 50 minutes. We got our side salads right away, but our food took forever. We finally figured out there was a reunion in the back room. We were there a total of an hour and a half. Took almost an hour to get our food. Waitress never said a word about why things are taking so long.
My son ordered pizza, said it was good. My fiance' ordered the tortellini, said it was good.
I ordered the chicken marsala. The chicken was amazing. The brussel sprouts were so burnt, I could barely taste them. I asked the waitress if they're always like that, so I know not to order them again. She agreed they look dark, and would have them made again, as the kitchen had been slammed. She came back out saying the cook has to cook them that dark as they're roasted frozen. She did offer a different side, but we wanted to get going as we'd been there so long already. I just peeled the burnt outsides off, but it still wasn't good. She did give me a discount on my meal.
Not sure we will go back, between the experience and prices, plus how far we drove to try it out.
Edited to add: The business owner reached out after my review. They thanked me for my honest review, and did offer an explanation. The owners left for the first time since they opened, on a weekend that was supposed to be fairly quiet in the area, and I did mention that the server never took the brussel sprouts back to the kitchen for the cook to see, so they likely didn't realize how overcooked they were. As a person who has cooked at a restaurant myself, I understand sometimes things go out that the cook didn't realize looked as bad as it did. So we will try this place again. Everybody makes mistakes, and we can all learn and grow, and we can all have an off day. The best part is the owner genuinely was disappointed in what experience we had, and promised to look into how the brussel sprouts are prepared. And THAT is a sign of an amazing business owner. ❤️ I look forward to going back.

We were in the area for a state baseball tournament and decided to stop in for supper. The service was awesome. Bartender and owners came to our table and visited with us. Food was amazing, hot and delicious!!! Affordable for a family of 5. Easy for everyone to find something that they enjoyed. Very spacious, nice ambiance, TV on if you wanted to watch sports. Spacious and very clean bathrooms. One of our kids had a pizza the first and it was so good that we all went back the next night for our own pizza!! Traditional pepperoni but also a variety of specialty combinations. We’ll definitely be revisiting “Roots” the next time we’re in the area.

My wife and I recently went for Saturday lunch. They were REALLY busy, but our server Willa did a fantastic job taking care of us. The food was awesome and the atmosphere is terrific. We'll make it back again in the future.

Asked for medium/medium rare stakes. Got over well done. No flavor. Waitress didn't care. We will never go back

The food and drinks were amazing! I usually have to travel to the cities for a menu selection like theirs. I was very impressed with all the options. We will be back to try more of the menu! Thank you for great service!

Great server, food was pretty good. A bit of a sterile environment.
