This was our thrid visit to Root &Bone and we have been pleasantly pleased each time. On this visit we had a very thoughtful and attentive server, as we have each time. The menu selection was good, the temperature and noise level were comfortable, and dining room and bathrooms clean. There were six in our party and all but one was very pleased with their food. My husband’s ribeye was just okay, not great, but my duck breast was fantastic, as were the fried green tomatoes appetizer. My only disappointment was that all the cocktails were all sweet, I always enjoy a savory cocktail choice so I stuck with a beer. Although the location is not the best for is, we will be back.
