    I love to support small and local businesses but they have to make sense. It is insane to charge for *tiny* kid sweet teas that do not automatically come with their kids meal. I have never in my life paid $46.00 for a *basic* meal of 2 kid burgers and a turkey sandwich for myself. And I do mean "basic" in the fullest term. Also the service, which was terrible. I don't know if she was new. I don't know if her parents made her get a summer job and she hated to be there. I can't even tell you her name because she greeted us by asking what we wanted to drink. She also knew nothing about the menu, any question I asked, she had to ask someone else. The parking lot was almost empty and I can see why. If I'm going to pay $46.00 bucks, I'd rather go to Yardhouse or somewhere else where my food will have flavor and it is justifiable to pay that amount.

    Huevos Con Chorizo My only gripe is I wish the potatoes were cooked on the grill a little longer. But all in all I'll return for sure.

    The food was fresh and great tasting. The service was a little weird lol. They kept looking at me from afar but wouldn't come check and see if I needed a refill or anything. The is always nice and clean.

    I'm not sure why it took me so long to visit this place--though I'll admit the name initially gave me pause. In this case, however, "Roots" turned out to be a pleasant surprise. Roots Café is a small, inviting spot in North Richland Hills that serves genuinely fresh food every day. And by fresh, I mean not pulled from a freezer and reheated--actually made fresh. I didn't get the chance to try the French toast that our server, Kate, highly recommended, but she still guided us toward options that matched exactly what my friend and I were looking for. The omelet was well seasoned and well prepared. I ordered pancakes as a substitute for the French toast, and they were excellent--impressive given that I normally don't enjoy pancakes due to their usual baking-soda taste. These were balanced, flavorful, and something I would order again without hesitation. The Roots Sandwich was also reported to be outstanding, with each bite hitting the mark. Overall, Roots Café exceeded expectations and is absolutely worth a return visit. By the way parking lot is free and has ample spacing. And inside is spacious seating of about 50-75 customers. .

    I live close by and this is my to go breakfast place. I love the food and the service is always great. Presentation is awesome and it's just nice. This is my favorite plate, the croissant is so crispy and the potatoes are good too.

    Morning breakfast on a Wednesday quiet and clean. The waitress was super sweet, came to check on us several times and never had to ask for refills. The portions are huge! You can definitely share meals here!

    Kim was awesome. This place has the BEST service ever. The staff is awesome and the food is great. Definitely recommended for breakfast or lunch.

    Veggie Plate with Steak
    Elo S.

    Came here for brunch today with my family. Don't judge it by the exterior- or the interior. The food here is definitely a level up. The food, the presentation, not only of the food but also the staff. It's like fine dining but at home. I had the veggie plate with steak and I loved the variety. Zucchini, carrots, mushrooms and a variety of fresh micro greens. I wasn't asked how I wanted the steak but that's okay it was perfect for its setting. My kids had the breakfast plate with pancakes and it was a pretty big plate with small pancakes that are perfectly fluffy. My husband had the chilaquiles made with a Guajillo sauce. No heat. I prefer my chilaquiles with a lot of heat- inferno, but that's just a preference. I heard customers also raving about their chicken fried steak which I look forward to trying.

    Breakfast 4/11/25 Over medium eggs, bacon, potatoes, fruit, wheat toast, & coffee. Hubby's pancakes are peeking in as well.

    Updated ... 4/11/25 We went back for breakfast again. Loved our breakfasts again! And, we were greeted by the chef who wanted us to try a new dessert he had created ... the churro cake. OMG that was so full of flavor, warm & gooey yet firm & held its adorable lil' bundt shape. The sauce he drizzled over it paired with the dusting of cocoa & powdered sugar enhances the flavor a bit more. We will definitley order that next time we visit. 4/5/25 We went back for dinner! Dinner is served Friday & Saturday from 4:30-9:30pm. After we previously visited for breakfast we knew we wanted to try their dinner options. So, Friday night we arrived at 4:30pm to get an early start. I ordered the crab cakes & calamari. My husband ordered the lamb chops. As usual the platings' artistic flair could not be beat. Everything was delicious! The crab cakes were delicate, flavorful, & filling. They had very little filler & loads of crab with green onion (that was new for us, but we enjoyed the fresh addition). There were 3 sauces. One was a homemade tartar sauce & then there were the pretty little dots of green & red which were a bit spicy but so very tasty with that crab! The lamb was seasoned & cooked perfectly. My husband was extremely pleased. I am not usually into lamb much, but it really was very well done. The garlic mashed potatoes, sautéed zucchini & spinach, & rosemary sauce were all lovely as well. And those edible flowers add such a fun pop of color to the dishes. 4/4/25 We found this little gem, & are very happy we stopped by. The staff was friendly, attentive, & quick to serve. The prices were terrific with filling portions. The food was fabulous! We seriously enjoyed every bite. The potatoes were crisp on the outside & soft on the inside, crispy bacon, eggs done right, & the unexpected fruit with pretty little flowers added a sweet touch. My over medium eggs were cooked perfectly (thankful for this as a lot of places undercook them). My husband's pancakes were fluffy & my toast was also perfectly toasted. The coffee was strong & flavorful just like we like it. We are excited to go back to try their dinner options, & we'll definitely be back for breakfast again soon!

    Always good! I recommend the chicken fried steak with brown gravy and sunny side up eggs or fried eggs, and the steak and eggs!

    Hi folks. How are you doing this luscious summers night? Okay, so it isn't summer, but I will call…read more74 degrees in February summer if I need to It's close enough. So I love me some family businesses. Burger Box is the absolute definition of family business. Husband and Wife, son and daughter operating this spot on the corner of happiness, and joy. Today was my annual check up. Doc said all of my numbers were very good. So tonight, I cheat full on. Ordered up one of this spots best bets. Chicken fried steak sandwich. Add golden, crispy, oniony rings. Close it out with a 16 oz chocolate malt made with Blue Bell Ice Cream. Everything about this meal is a favorite. Breaded steak, on a lightly toasted bun, thick fresh slices of tomato, crisp lettuce, pickles,flag waving American cheese. Super good. Onion rings with thick cut yellow onions. Breaded with panko crumbs for that super crunch, bite after delicious bite. The closer, a chocolate malt thick, sweet, chilly chill. How much is this feast? a few cents over $12. Add a tip if you please. if not, put something in the jar they have raising money for missing kids, or do both. Okay so that malt is really filling as it is made with real ice cream, so I had to make a tough call. Cut the sammie in half, eat half the rings. Drink all of that malt. So now, tomorrow, lunch, more steak, more rings. Yes. Two meals for the price of one. I truly hope you all are surrounding your lives with loved ones, with family. If not, then get out to Burger Box on Glenview in Richland Hills, allow a beautiful family to cook you a meal. The menu is jam packed with some of the best good food done fast in North Texas, and Texas itself. They truly put their all in every meal. If to-go, know that your rings will still have that crunch when you get home. Good night all.
