    Some of the best matcha I've had but not for almost $9. This would be an occasional treat for me! The shop itself is very aesthetically pleasing and cozy with plenty of seating. Not so hidden in the back are little trinkets and art sold my local artists (I'm guessing). This is a nice touch and way to get to know local artists.

    Homemade bagels with homemade cashew cheese and microgreens!

    Grateful to have them! High quality food, teas and coffee! They make their cashew cheese in house, along with most everything else! Feel good physically and mentally when you visit this place! I had the bagels with cashew cheese and microgreens, an unsweetened matcha latte with coconut milk and a jasmine tea. All perfect, and I am very particular lol

    I was delighted this week to discover this wonderful all plant based bakery / coffee shop / smoothie place. It is so worth the trip-You can hang out in the very cool ambience while sipping coffee and enjoying a Turkish bagel with homemade cashew cream cheese or numerous bakery items or a healthy smoothie, or you can take everything to go. I bought so many things, and every single item was so good! They only use natural sweeteners with low glycemic index and no artificial sweeteners. If you're looking for a great taste, better health, helping our planet or kindness to animals you've gotta check this place out. The staff are also so nice and helpful and welcoming.

    My wife and I had such a wonderful experience at Root & Seed! The atmosphere is cozy, bright, and welcoming - a perfect spot to enjoy a healthy meal. We tried the avocado toast, morning muffin, tiramisu, and the peanut caramel cake. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The avocado toast was light yet satisfying, the muffin had just the right amount of sweetness, and both desserts were absolutely amazing - rich in flavor but still felt guilt-free. Also they have such a nice flavor and fresh coffees It's so refreshing to find a fully gluten-free and plant-based café with this level of quality. The staff was kind and very friendly, and you can really tell they care about offering wholesome, delicious food. Definitely a place we'll be coming back to -highly recommended!

    Iced Coconut Matcha
    Monica F.

    This place is truly authentic. My coworker and I stumbled upon this place for a quick little pick-me-up and everything looks like it was created with the most attention to detail. The lady who owns this place, Irem, was very kind and her creativity absolutely radiates through her homemade beverages and snacks/desserts. We ordered the Iced Coconut Matcha, a combo we have never had before and oh..my...goodness. Absolutely delicious! We will be back to try more!

    Paris bistro never fails to impress! Food, quality, pace of service, ambience all are stand outs!…read more Consistency is spot on! Highly recommend!

    I wish Yelp would allow a no-star review when a restaurant fails in such a spectacular way. I will…read morebe as concise as possible in order to exactly describe our experience last evening. We were guests in what our hosts described as "their favorite restaurant" and Yelp awards a 4-stars review...my conclusion was: either the restaurant was having a really bad night or reviewers have lost their understanding of what a 4-stars restaurant should be like. Our hosts ordered a bottle of white Bordeaux which the owner poured in our glasses as if she was pouring the lowly Sarasota water, filled our glasses almost to the top practically emptying the bottle. Then it was time to order, the lady host asked for the foie gras appetizer which she had absolutely recommended...Sorry, we are out! Appetizers: we ordered 2 Escargots, and the Homemade Country Pâté. The Escargots in herb butter were tasteless (I had to add some salt) and one of the snails was full of stones and grit. Main course: I asked for the Homemade Country Pâté which was portioned significantly less than what our host had gotten...was it to punish me for ordering 2 appetizers? My husband ordered the lamb chops...4 chops cooked to the point where they were tough, and a potato gratin reminiscent of a brick. Our hosts ordered the Pork Marco Polo and the Smoked Salmon Salad. I cannot comment on their entrees even though a comment was made that the pork was overcooked. The Salmon Salad did not look appetizing. But, the 'pièce de resistance' was when our host ordered Crêpe Suzette and was told that 'we are out of orange jam'...whaaat? You can find orange jam in any grocery store, you should never run out of orange jam. We have dined in many restaurant that we felt were subpar, this one won first price. Needless to say, will never go back.

I ordered the Parisian Breakfast bowl with short ribs and a poached egg- perfect poach, perhaps sous vide? The hubby ordered eggs Benedict- perfect and the hollandaise was so creamy and rich.

Other tables were seated after us and we saw their servers greet them and bring waters immediately. I ordered a sandwich with no tomatoes. I have a few food allergies so I'm used to double checking my food. The plate comes out and it looks fine. No tomatoes. Opened the sandwich and it was clear that tomatoes had originally been put in the sandwich and then taken out before coming to the table. There were tomato pieces/seeds left on the meat of the sandwich. I did not eat the sandwich after seeing that. I told both the server and the host as we left the restaurant. We paid full price and were given a quick "I'm sorry." I wasn't looking for a refund or for the sandwich to be remade. I didn't trust the kitchen at that point. Just a heads up to anyone who dines here with ingredient restrictions. Slow service and careless mistakes.
