About this restaurant

Romantic
Innovative
Great for creative cocktails

Below street level in downtown Tallahassee, Rootstock is an intimate, wine-focused escape from the ordinary, inspired by the belief that the best things happen when people come together over good food + drink.

The rootstock is the nutrient-rich part of a plant that when merged with another, sparks new growth to create a heartier, more sustainable variety.

Our dream is to create a place where people come together to break bread over shareable fare, fabulous wine, and artisan cocktails. And by that sharing, discover the best of ourselves – together

Overall, great dining experience! Well located downtown with updated decor and a speakeasy vibe. Server was very attentive and knowledgeable. We split a number of tapas plates and a charcuterie board between our table and were not disappointed.

On arrival at 6:30 on a Saturday evening,everything was delightful. We were seated in a booth, which would have made for convenient conversation. Unfortunately, by 7:30, casual conversation among the four of us was impossible. The noise level was so loud one needed to shout just to be heard by the person sitting next to you.

Service was great. Food not so great. Although cheese board was good, the scallops were not good at all (except the cabbage they were on was great) - tasted frozen and we’re way too salty - and crab cake was terrible. Loads of filler and weird taste. For comparison, the crab cake at Il Lusso is awesome.

Absolutely amazing experience, captain took care of us as we were celebrating a special recognition. Great spirits selection including scotch. As a scotch connoisseur I was actually impressed. We ordered all of the food as family style and tried 2/3 of the items on the menu. We were very happy with all of them.

From the smoked salad(I’m sure that salad was smoked) to the glass of wine. Everything was absolutely amazing! We came for Valentines Day 2020, and have been back since COVID broke out. We can’t wait to go back! It’s all my boyfriend talks about. lol!

20% gratuity added automatically with no prior notice and no way to remove it. Food was good but a little salty. Service was just ok at best.

Awesome Experience! We decided to choose this place due to last minute reservations but the choice was amazing! Food was full of flavor! There was a quite large party that was a little noisy, but the manager made us feel comfortable! We will definitely be back!

Parking was a bit of a challenge but it was worth the trouble. The food and service were both above Tallahassee par.

The Fried Brie salad plate was disappointing in terms of size. The brie was delicious, but the salad greens were really sparse. I order the salad in order to get my greens for the day, so I expect a larger portion than what basically looked like garnish. The slow braised shortribs with truffle risotto, on the other hand, was perfection.
