Uproot Restaurant

Had an amazing private event in a private room over the holidays. We appreciated the custom printed menu for each guest and everything was perfect including the food, dessert and set up. The manager, Josh, was incredibly helpful and accommodating for my guests. The staff was super friendly; shout out to Jen who was all smiles. We could not have been happier with our choice to go with UpRoot.

Uproot is upping their game lately. I went on Saturday night and the food, cocktails and service were on par with a top NYC restaurant. As an ex-bartender, I found the Mountain Boulevard was a perfectly crafted cocktail with chocolate bitters balancing the Italian vermouth and bourbon. The calamari special was tender and crispy with a wasabi Honey sauce. The chipotle chicken sandwich was anything but basic - juicy flavorful chicken, cilantro micro greens, applewood bacon, chipotle aioli on a Balthazar brioche bun. Well balanced and perfectly executed. The house made cheesecake was creamy and not overly sweet with currents and fresh cherry sauce. This place is quickly becoming my go to restaurant. If you haven't been there in a while, go!

Went to this place on a whim for our regular date night. We ate outside which the weather was absolutely perfect for! Our waiter was the perfect balance of making sure we were okay at the right times and letting us enjoy ourselves. The cocktails here at clearly made with love, you can taste it in every sip! I got the berry smash mule which was delicious and my wife got the cosmo which she said was perfect, both drinks looked beautiful and tasted delightful. Things started to fall off at the appetizers. While the pork belly and and tuna tartare were scrumptious, the buffalo cauliflower were way too big and were a meal within their self. I got the bone in ribeye which was melt in your mouth good and cooked to perfection!!! My wife got the korean fried chicken which tasted very salty and looked nothing like what you'd expect. They almost seemed like chicken nuggets dipped or marinated in soy sauce. As for dessert, make sure you ask your waiter early about the homemade donuts here because they sell out fast (we missed out on them)!

Had a great lunch at Uproot today. Had the Rachel which is a delicious Brisket sandwich. Brisket was sliced nice and thin and was on the perfect bread for it. The highlight was my cocktail "The Melina." It was refreshing and had a perfect mixture of acid and sweetness. Great service. Will definitely be back! The bartender was also excellent.
