Waitress did not mention nightly specials. My wife’s pork chop was fatty and had gristle on it. When we pointed this out to the waitress she said you must have gotten a fatty one and did nothing to address the situation. After many excellent lunch experiences and dinners we did not expect this level of service or inattention to the foot served.

As always Grassroots was wonderful. My family and I have been dining there for the past few years because we love the delicious food and the service. The back patio doors were all open and we enjoyed terrific weather while we dined. I would highly recommed this establsiment for lunch or dinner ( 5 STAR).

We had relatives from Wisconsin visiting. So for their last night we ‘had to go’ to our favorite spot for the best food & drinks. For our 2nd visit my husband & I chose the same entrees as our 1st visit; I chose the Shrimp and Grits & he chose the Ahi Tuna! And, we each had the Key Lime pie! All spectacular again!! Our guests had the Salmon entrees & they shared the Chocolate Brownie dessert. All delicious’!!’ We can’t wait to visit again!!!

I go to Grassroots quite often and am normally pleased with the food quality. This was not the case with our last visit, and, upon reflection, was not the time before either. The ribs were incredibly dry and not very meaty. This is certainly different from the last few years and I hope not indicative of times ahead.

The service was good! The shrimp and grits were delicious, the blackened redfish was delicious, but my son ordered the chicken and ribs and the chicken was really dry … I guess because it said spit roasted thought it would be juicy. Would definitely come back for fish and shrimp and grits

Food - spectacular and fast to the table. We all made different selections and that was agreed upon by all. I think all by one and me had never been there previously. I'd forgotten since it's been a while. Thx covid. Service - Very good with several young people who seemed to read our minds. Their jobs seem to delight them, not bother them. General - we are a monthly group, good friends, all from the southeast, relocated to AZ. All but me are gourmet cooks so their praise must be earned and is always spread, the Southern part. By the way - I decided to take them to Grassroots after the went on and on about Wally's. They'll be back and I won't be waiting so long in the future, barring another covid.

Location is easy to get on and out of parking lot- lots of parking. We were greeted warmly since we arrived early we were escorted to the bar where we ordered some fantastic drinks. Brew on top, a specialty drink, two waters and a ginger tea. All were excellent. Very punctually they sat is in our outdoor table which had fantastic ambience and heaters as it was a cold night. We were greeted promptly And brought our drinks promptly as well. We ordered appetizers and soup to split and share. Our server was knowledgeable and guided us towards excellent choices for our meal. The restaurant is not too loud so conversation was wonderful. The food came out quickly and was perfect . I cannot say enough about the pork belly appetizer – simply excellent! We also ordered a Caesar salad and a soup of the day. Both exceeded our expectations. Just a sidenote, it’s a little hard to exceed expectations on a Caesar salad but this did it. For main meal, we ordered the Aji tuna Steak amazing flavor! Truly one of the best Aji steaks I’ve ever had and I live near the beach. We also ordered the braised short ribs 10 out of 10. Fantastic experience from beginning to end.
