Dinner with my wife and 2 kids. We sat right away just as service was starting to pick up. Service was good and attentive. We kids ate a burger and chicken fingers and enjoyed. My wife had the salmon entree and enjoyed. I had the French onion soup and a burger. Soup was good the burger was disappointing. It lacked pretty much any flavor. It was sans cheese in its purest form (plain). Some may argue that thats why you get a cheeseburger. I disagree. A good burger doesnt need cheese to make it good. This one could have used more salt and pepper before hitting the grill because it seemed to get none. I still enjoyed the cozy atmosphere and the service was good. I hope they take this criticism as constructive and improve upon this staple item that can really help their reputation.

My kids and I ate here tonight and it was amazing! The restaurant is so cozy and welcoming. They have a smaller menu so youre not overwhelmed with choices although everything sounds so delicious it makes it hard to choose what to order. We had the fried calamari, shrimp agro dolce and the French onion soup to start and all three were mouthwatering good. For an entree I had the pappardelle Esposito and my kids had chicken fingers and fries and a flat bread pizza and we all thoroughly enjoyed our meals. The food not only tasted delicious but was plated to perfection! We ended our meal with the chocolate cake which we shared and loved! The wait staff was so friendly and attentive. If youre looking for an amazing dining experience in every way then this is your place!

Very nice upgrade to the space with the new ownership. The lighting and light colored wood really brightened it up. The menu looks good, my wife and I sat at the bar for drinks and an appetizer. My wifes dirty martini was not well made. We decided to try the calamari, but I was a bit disappointed in the execution. The dish lacked seasoning and was just bland. Also could have used a lemon wedge to cut through the aioli. All this being said, I know the restaurant just recently opened and is still working out the kinks. Well definitely try again and hopefully Ill be able to add some more stars on to the review.

Wow, what a makeover! Youll really be impressed if you remember what it looked like before it was Scenic Root. My sister and I ordered drinks at the bar because we wanted to eat on the deck and there was a 10 minute wait. Our drinks were well made so the evening started out with an A+. My sisters entree was nicely presented and delicious. I ordered an appetizer and salad which was perfect and enough of a meal for me. The service was relaxed but excellent and friendly...a very comfortable place. I enjoyed myself completely, so I am going back next week with friends! -Georgia

GREAT new addition to my area! We went literally the first or second day of their full open. Waitress was great and knew all the answers to the questions we asked (rare with a new venue). Rotating craft beer list is great and will continue that way. Wings were a great appetizer Burger was awesome and I was allowed to add goat cheese to it (try it sometime its amazing). My wife had one of 3 entrees she was torn between. At least I know we will be back very soon to try one of the others Keep up the great work. We appreciate it

Great atmosphere with an awesome view of the historic swan pond. Food was excellent. Servers are very knowledgeable, professional, and kind. Great wine and drink selection. Bartenders really know their stuff as well! The owner was even serving tables that night and not flaunting or mentioning the fact that he was the owner. A refreshing humble act to see a small local business owner in the trenches getting the best feedback possible. A must try in my opinion!

Tonight I had the pappardelle chicken Esposito and my husband had halibut with lemon pepper, wild rice with a roasted red pepper coulis ... Delish! For dessert we had apple sour cream cake that was amazing!!! Very professional and friendly staff. They really know what it means to work as a team. Well done Scenic Root, well done!

Good food. Tried their salmon BLT and it was very good. Steamed clams for the appetizer and a decadent lemon jumbled cake! One of the employees makes it! Good service and reasonable prices.

Nicely redecorated. Service pleasant. Food ok, simple. Higher prices than we expected. No salad included before dinner. Very loud in the dining area in the lower section of the restaurant.
