Roots offers a delightful experience with a cozy, trendy vibe. I recently dined here and was impressed by the delicious options. The pork buns were decent, but the spicy miso soup stole the show - comforting and full of flavor! For mains, I enjoyed the ginger roots with tofu and green beans - perfectly seasoned. Their tea selection is also fabulous, making it a great spot to unwind. Though it can get busy, the quick service made it all worthwhile. Definitely worth a visit! 🍜
