I went to Grassroots Kitchen & Tap for dinner with a friend this week because we wanted to try something a little different, and after looking at the menu, I decided to give this place a try.
It's located next to one of my favorite coffee shops (The Village Roastery), and has a beautiful heated patio which is where we sat. The restaurant itself if very nice; it has a great ambiance to it.
I ordered a Kona beer, the shrimp poboy, and jalapeno & cheese grits. Hooooly crap, I kid you not, I think I could die in a vat of those grits. They were heavenly! You wouldn't expect a Grassroots to have such a southern/creole vibe to it, but it totally works.
Our waitress was very sweet, service was prompt and friendly. The only drawback is that the prices are a little high, but you do get large portions. It would be really fun to come for their social hour with a group of friends.
