ROOST Uncommon Kitchen

great place for a fantastic breakfast

Honestly, the last couple years roost has not been my thing. I always felt like the entire menu was just super heavy breakfast meals. I am not one of those people that eats to sleep. But with my boyfriend persistently requesting we go there, I gave it another shot today. I’m so glad I did. They have definitely refreshed their menu and their quality of ingredients, they really have something for everyone now. I was so thrilled to see so many healthy breakfast options in contrast to their previous menu. I got the brisket tostada and it was so yummy. I also was super excited to see that they had lattes on their menu as well. My oat-milk latte was perfect. Even with a packed restaurant at our arrival, we got our food in an reasonable amount of time and enjoyed the ambience.

I really wanted to like this place but it’s just OK and not worth going back for me. The server was extremely slow and just kept disappearing. We finally had to get the hostess to go and get our check. We would have had more drinks because those were good but the first round didn’t arrive until our food did and then we never saw a server again. The food was a little better than average and had potential but with that service it’s not worth going back. Dietary restrictions: Gluten free

I want to love this place, but I don't know. For now it's ok. I'm giving it 3 stars based on the food alone. I didn't enjoy my food the first time, the second time they gave me the wrong order, and gave me something I specifically did not want, so I ate my husband's plate (the smkoed salmon benedict), which was DELICIOUS. The bacon was DELICIOUS. Our server was really nice, and mistakes happen. And he did apologize profusely and offerred to take it back and put in the right order. And to his defense, I did ask him specific questions about 2 or 3 items on the menu that I was indecisive about. They do have a large menu, so I'm hoping there's plenty of other food on the menu that is delicious.

I’m not a big breakfast person, they have a good selection though. The reason I keep coming back is their PIZZAS! My boyfriend and I can agree they hands down have the best pizza. We are sad that they change their menus and got rid of their upside down pizza which was our favorite but their other options are still as good.
