| - It has been awhile since I've had such a good meal! I eat amazing food all the time so my bar for excellence is set very high. Grassroots Kitchen did not disappoint! I met a friend here for dinner at 6pm. It was busy and we didn't have a reservation so our options were sitting on the heated patio, or sitting at a "communal" table inside. We opted for the shared table inside because even with the heaters, the patio was toooo cold! We sat at the end of the shared table and had no issues with the couple sitting next to us.
My friend and I ordered a meat and cheese board for $10 (HH price) that came with a giant loaf of fresh bread, mixed nuts, olives, and honey. Delicious! There were three types of cheese (brie, goat, and maybe munster) and three types of meat (salami, prosciutto, and...?). Everything was high quality and so flavorful! It was a lot of food for the two of us, so we were pretty full by the time we ordered our entree. We decided to split a plate, which was the right decision.
We went with the waitress' recommendation and ordered the short ribs with cheesy jalapeno grits. OMG. Amazing!!! Best short rib I've ever had, ever! As I said, it has been a long time since I've had such a tasty meal! The short rib was plenty of food to split between two, and between the entree and the appetizer, we were stuffed! My one and only complaint is that the short rib came with TWO pieces of asparagus. TWO!? That's it?! I need some veggies, c'mon guys!
5 stars for the food, 5 stars for the ambiance, 3 stars for a pathetic portion of asparagus. I'LL BE BACK SOON!
