Korean Style Tacos (2)  Roots Salad
Laura C.

Fast and friendly service! Food was amazing. And I love the atmosphere! Rustic and hometown all in one.

Still no food.

We have gone to Roots for dinner before the lighting of the square in Georgetown for about 6 years. We got there about 4:50 which I thought was early. My husband ordered a sandwich which came in about 30 minutes. We ordered a large cheese pizza which took another hour to come. We waited 90 minutes for the pizza. We were told they were busy but I noticed no one had food for a long time. I wonder if the 'to go' orders were prepared first? Anyway, we were disappointed in the time it took to get a pizza, and that part of our family meal came out a full hour before the pizza.

Cobb salad and The Roots club sandwich

Roots on the square in Georgetown had some good BBQ chicken pizza. The queso was okay, same with the burger. The live music was a little too loud (didn't know he was going to be there) but overall pretty good spot.

Food was good We sampled pizza and burgers Beer was ample choices Cannolis were tasty dessert Ambiance was nice Like an old country saloon But the temperature inside the business was awful So hot Sweating profusely I mentioned to the bartender it would be great to turn ac on and she just rolled her eyes and says Yes it's so hot I dunno if they are trying to save money or what but it would prevent me from visiting until January or so Open mic night Was kinda cool Wasn't a great experience but not terrible Sweaty though!

Thought this was cool

This review is solely on the bar and drinks. Walked in and the food smelled amazing! I wish we didn't eat dinner so we could get a pizza. We just got drinks for the square. The bartender was very nice and put our drinks in to go cups. The atmosphere is very cute and down to earth. They even have live music, there was a band setting up to play.

Lunch time yall!

Well, maybe everyone is tired from the week... It smells like burnt pizza, which they make pizzas so totally likely that is what happened. However, it was noxious!! The cups we were given for our drinks were gross dirty! They kindly wiped out new ones and gave them to us. The Dr Pepper wasn't hooked up, k ky carbonated water, the Lemonade was mostly water and the sweet tea was weak. $3 for waters Meatball sub- cheese and sauce was the perfect temp unfortunately the cold meatball made the sandwich gross. The Korean tacos were a bit anemic but flavor was good. This isn't our first time here and we will be back but hopefully we will have a better experience.

Live music

Service was good, one guy seemed to be running everything (bar, taking orders, waiter), I got the trash can pizza (everything on it) tasted pretty good but got soggy quick probably due to all the toppings, my husband got the Korean tacos which he said were pretty decent. There was live music (Sunday afternoon) it was very loud and just ok. Lots of seating downstairs and up.

Really disappointed with our dinner experience. We ordered 2 Roots salads, which according to the menu are supposed to come with chicken. When our server brought the salads out, she said "2 salads with no meat". We said that no, we did want the chicken. She said that chicken would be a $4 upcharge. We said that the menu didn't say that, and she offered to bring out a side of grilled chicken to add to our salad. She came back later and said the chef reiterated that the chicken was an upcharge, and she would have to get a card from us to charge for it. By that point we had looked at the menu again and verified that the menu did not specify an upcharge. We pointed it out on the menu, and she then tried to insist that the "C" next to the soup indicated the $4 upcharge for chicken and got annoyed when I asked "isn't that for a 'cup' of soup?" She was quite rude after that, and we told her to forget the chicken. The cashier didn't ask if I wanted to add chicken or specify that it was an upcharge, in fact he barely spoke to me. The salads themselves were disappointing, very little toppings and low-quality greens. We both barely ate them. We definitely won't be returning due to the food, service, and lack of transparency in pricing.

My first time here but it was an in and out. There looks like they have live music, which is always a plus. It give another pizza option on the square. The pizza was actually quite good! I will definitely be going back!

Live music on a cold rainy Sunday!

Anthony's pizza is so good! By far the best pizza north of Austin. Hutto is lucky to have a place…read morelike this. The ingredients are high quality, the crust is thin & delicious. Feels like you're in NYC eating an amazing slice. Today, we had the pleasure of trying a cheese pizza and a pepperoni pizza. Both were a nice surprise, because honestly, I thought the only pizza option in Forest Creek/Round Rock/Hutto was Mr. Gattis. Can't wait to try more of Anthony's pizza. This place is a gem. If you haven't tried it yet, you really should!

This was a very difficult reviews because it involves the food and inappropriate staff…read more It did smell very inviting from the parking lot so wanted to give it a try. It's a local mom and pop establishment from looking from the outside, but was confirmed clearly it was from staff. Not sure where I want to begin. I'll start with the food. I got the lunch special. 1 slice, 3 knots and a drink. They were "short stocked" on drinks so only had 3 choices. Beverage was in a bottle and was not cold. I was told they had no ice either. I got the mushroom and spinach slice. The toppings and sauce were very good however the crust was black and burnt on the bottom so I just picked off the toppings. The same with the garlic knots too. You can see in the photo too. The marinara dipping sauce was cold and was told they do not do warm dipping sauce. I do believe if the pizza and the knots were not burnt, they would have been enjoyable. I am not sure if management reads this but your staff does like you very much. However, you might want to let them know discussing other employees and past employees love lives, jail records, arrest records, making fun of someone's disabilities is not ok in the workplace let alone with customers in the restaurant. I learned wayyyyy too much about the "person" that just got fired and their age and why they were arrested and closing up your restaurant an hour early. I felt extremely uncomfortable having to listen to this!

Probably one of the best bites of pizza I have ever had! And I've had a lot of pizza…read more Was greeted by the awesome folks at the bar when I walked in, made to feel very welcome. Staff were very knowledgeable when it came to the menu and the extensive beers on tap. I had the Mushroom Man pizza - highly recommend! - which had a pesto sauce, goat cheese, mushrooms, the PHP cheese blend, and fresh arugula. I'm sure I'm missing something, but the pizza was stupid good, that's what you need to know. It was Johnny-Depp-in-Once-Upon-Time-in-Mexico-having-to-go-and-shoot-the-chef-to-rebalance-the-world kind of good! And I had it along with a couple pints of the Nitro Irish Stout - also stupid good Atmosphere was this sort of old pub feel meets new, super clean and modern. I really dug the vibe and the simple decor. The polished wood handles on the taps. The polished crystal tasting glasses, and the branded Pinthouse glasses. All added to the super cool ambiance. This place is just crazy awesome. I don't know what else to say to convince you to go here when you're in town!

TLDR: Delicious thin pizza (with a perfectly doughy crust) that uses quality ingredients. Carefully…read morecurated topping combinations on the menu. Easy online ordering for delivery. Thoroughly surprised and impressed by this pizza. I chose this spot randomly because everything near me was closed (and we absolutely had to have pizza on this particular night). DELIVERY: They offer delivery and it was a smooth process. Easy online ordering. MENU: Excellent. Each combination of toppings seemed very carefully curated. Everything sounded good. PIZZA: Very good. We tried the Pepperoni / Basil and Mushroom Man. The pizza itself was nice and thin with a fantastic doughy crust that had little pockets of crispy blistering. Nailed the texture there (at least for me). The toppings were great too. The pepperoni did that little cup thing that it does when it curls up. Love that. The Mushroom Man tasted really good -- nice combination of ingredients (delicious mushrooms -- you can tell they were the real deal). Ultimately, this is my new favorite pizza spot in the area. Highly recommended.
