5 /5 Walter- WCAR: If you’re looking for a place with heart, hospitality, and unforgettable food The Roots Restaurant Tavern is it.
I called ahead to arrange a birthday breakfast for my mom, and Jen, who works there, went above and beyond. She reserved a cozy window table, decorated it with a birthday sign, balloon, and even placed the fruit bouquet I had delivered right at her spot. The personal touch and care were extraordinary.
My mom had the shrimp and grits and couldn’t stop raving about it. The shrimp were juicy and flavorful, and the grits were creamy and perfectly seasoned true Southern comfort on a plate.
Jen treated my mom like family. In fact, she said it herself: “I always treat customers how I’d want my family to be treated.” That’s rare, and it makes this place truly special.
We’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend for any special occasion or just a great breakfast in Melbourne!
