    Service was great. Would have liked a little more details on the dishes. Ex: apricot chicken with side salad. But they don’t say it’s on top of cuscious. It’s ravioli doesn’t say with asparagus and mushrooms or type of sauce. But everything was delicious. Drinks were different but delicious. We will go back!

    While visiting the area, my wife and I dined at Root & Bone for dinner. The service was excellent from the start and we had zero wait time. Our server was very friendly and attentive. We ordered cocktails from the bar that were fantastic. Our dinner options were absolutely awesome!! Overall , the atmosphere was amazing and fun. I highly recommend this restaurant if in the Chesterton area.

    Over priced with limited food selection for Mother’s Day dinner. Food was tasty but my sangria was very weak. Will not return.
