Venue
The concept behind Rustic Root is simple: We’re creating the kind of neighborhood place you can eat at every week and never get tired of going back. Our menu features modern takes on honest American comfort food and regional favorites, prepared daily from scratch. The kind of approachable, delicious food that makes it easy for anyone to find a “gotta-try-that” dish.
We pair that with an atmosphere that is vibrant, stylish, and inviting. Hip enough for a night out, but still welcoming enough to be a family favorite. Then we mix in those little extras that keep our friends, family, and neighbors coming back. Beloved signature items and special services, along with touches of personality like festive decorations, special events, and menus for holidays year-round create the flair and personality that makes Rustic Root a neighborhood fixture.
