I went with my newly gluten free friend, who was craving some pizza! We decided on two pizzas the capricciosa ( artichokes, black cerignola olives, mushrooms, fresh mozzarella, prosciutto di parma) and the spicy soppressata (fresh mozzarella, aged provolone, parmesan, pickled banana peppers - & we added pepperoni) Both were so good and we had 3 slices each to take home for lunch the next day!! I was happy I liked it because I am not a gluten free girly!! The staff were so friendly and it wasnt busy at all...which surprised me because everything was yummy & fast!! If you haven't tried this place definitely give it a try!!

I got the Root wrap (with artichokes added and the aioli on the side) and a side of the beets with basil dressed with root tang. My husband ordered the string theory calzone. Everything was delicious...the vegetables within the wrap were perfect and the aioli was great. I think I'd try it on bread instead of in the wrap next time but it was still great as is. The beets and basil were tasty and my husband enjoyed his calzone. I took a bite too and it was really tasty! I honestly can't say whether I enjoyed their breakfast or lunch more...both were excellent. Thank you again, The Root Cafe!

There are not many places you can order a Tulsi tea, so I very much appreciated that option. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We had to park in a municipal lot and walk, but it was not far. In the past O have parked on the street also. The Root Cafe is a very comfortable and welcoming space.

We got the bourbon burger, the buffalo chicken sandwich and wings. It was so good. I am giving this place a 9/10. We waited a moment at the door but once we got seated we had attentive service. The beer selection was vast. The waiter was very knowledgeable and even let us taste test option before we made our selection. College football was on the screens. So you know that made Mister happy. lol The food soooooooo good. We debated if it was the best we have had in Cleveland. We settled on this is in our #2 spot. The only reason I am not doing a 10/10 is bc I would have like the serving size to be larger. lol

The staff were very friendly and helpful. As with many Lakewood establishments you do have to park on the street.

It was 10:30 or so when we got there. And they are open till 2:30a. Menu is simple but has lots of good favorites. I got the chopped cheese with fries and my partner got the burger royals with fries. It came out within 6-7 mins and was pipping hot. Fries are super good! Chopped cheese was a bit greasy but good and the burger was a hit. And the westsider drink was a hit too. Cost not too bad. $47 for food and 2 drinks. Had a good crowd. Parked across the street in the parking lot. Service was good. 3 people turned to 2 that helped us through our meal. They checked on us regularly. Can't complain they were on it. Overall good experience.
