Review by Sammie Goodwin

September 15, 2024

Roots in Durham offers a cozy and vibrant atmosphere perfect for enjoying authentic Guatemalan cuisine. 🌟 I had the Churrasco grilled steak platter, which was incredibly tender, paired with delicious onion rings - a great twist for anyone looking to skip carbs.

The avocado coleslaw was a unique find, but the avocado was a bit overripe. However, the attentive service and friendly staff truly made up for it.

With a great selection of brunch items and freshly sourced ingredients, I can't wait to return and try the famed pupusas! 🍽️
