Good food. Tuna burger has good flavor, not rare though. It's $24 so not cheap. Highly recommend the zucchini ball appetizers. The staff rave about them. read more

My Original review on Google; My brother likes it. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger. I never knew pimento cheese was considered cheese. I've had much better for less money With that said, their chocolate spoon cake was incredible. I guess it saved this review Edit: In response to the owner's response of my Google review - I actually ordered a half pound Cheeseburger (with cheddar cheese - also on the menu) with bacon added. I in no way ordered a pimento cheeseburger. The response itself tells you everything you need to know about the place. He could have easily said I'm sorry you had a bad experience, we'll try to do better, but instead blamed me for my lack of accommodating palate. Just to share - I was brought up in the south and pimento cheese is to cheese as tuna salad is to salad; it's not cheese. No matter how you try to rationalize it. I hope they can find a way to do better without personally attacking past customers. Good Luck! read more

Great spot. Busy place! Came on a Sat night around 6:30PM and they said it would be an hour wait. Fortunately, a couple of spots opened up at the bar and we were able to take a couple of spots there and avoid the long wait. My bride ordered the Chinese Salmon Salad ($24). I went with the Cedar Plank Salmon ($25) - the lima bean and corn succotash was excellent. Service from the entire bar staff was outstanding! read more

Excellent food. I had the London Broil, fries, and a Brunswick Stew. My wife had NC Mountain Trout, grits, and key lime pie. All were very good. Key Lime pie may have been the best we've ever had. This was our Valentine's dinner and my wife was very happy with it. Multiple local brews from Brevard on tap. Service was excellent- attentive without hovering. Ambience? Perfectly lit, muted but bright enough. Old building, repurposed, showing the old brick and a beautiful hand-made feeling wood floor. Cons? Not sure, but it might be a bit tight when full. We were here 2:30ish on a Thursday, and it was starting to fill up by the time we left. When packed, it might really feel so; however, that's a guess. read more

My husband and I stopped here during our one-year anniversary trip and were absolutely blown away. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by incredibly friendly staff who made us feel so welcome. The bar was full of regulars who were wonderful to talk to and couldn't stop raving about how great the restaurant is. We started by sharing the pretzel, and it was absolutely delicious. This place left such a great impression on us--we will definitely be stopping here every time we're in the area! read more

Wondered into Square Root by accident since the restaurant we originally planned to go to we closed. It was a Saturday afternoon and we had the dogs and saw that they had outside seating so we put our name on the list. The wait was about 45 minutes but they told us they would text us when our table was ready. Plus being in downtown Brevard there is plenty to do in order to kill time. Once our table was ready we looked over the menu and since we were hungry we had to start off with a appetizer. We went with the Bavarian Soft Pretzel Board which is Old World Bavarian Soft Pretzel with Italian Hard Salami, Smoked Ham, Smoked Gouda, Swiss, Pimento Cheese, Mixed Olives, Fried Black Eyed Peas, Pickled Okra, and a Beer Mustard Sauce. What more could one ask for. The pretzel was cooked perfectly and extremely soft. Their homemade Pimento Cheese and Beer Mustard Sauce were both to die for. I could eat it all day and put it on anything. I would 100% recommend and will be getting it again. It's also great for sharing. For my entrée I went with the London Broil which is their take on a French Dip for my side I went with fries. They were very accommodating and made sure to put the mushrooms on the side for me. The London Broil was good but not great. I wish the side of Au Jus was in a bigger bowl because it was tough to dip the sandwich. I was more in a sauce bowl. The fries were also underwhelming and could have used some seasoning but again nothing some salt and pepper couldn't fix. I will say I did get to try Ashley's Sweet Potato Chips and they were great. Made in house and very crispy. This coming from someone who doesn't even like sweet potato's. I will same the staff was extremely friendly and helpful and would 100% come back because of them. The manager even came out and chatted with us for awhile. Will for sure stop in next time we are in town. read more

My friend Tina who lives in Brevard had told me about this place so I was excited to check it out for a weekday dinner. We worked up an appetite walking around the lovely town of Brevard checking out the various shops, art galleries and restaurants. They have a large covered patio with plenty of 2 and 4 top tables. The menu is really good so we shared a bowl of Brunswick Stew which was just excellent. Tina had the Cobb salad with the special Orange salad dressing. I had the trout stuffed with crawfish and topped with pimento cheese grits which was really good. It would have been nice if the waiter had advised it was bone in, yike! They are known for their specials developed by their Chef Adam Wilson of the Culinary Art Institute of Atlanta. They also have an interesting offer where you can buy a bottle of wine and what you don't finish you can take home. I understand they also opened a sister restaurant in Hendersonville, NC. read more

Food and drinks were great... BUT the wait was terrible. They quoted us 30 minutes and it took Nearly an hour. The manager came out and told us that a free table was not to be used for threat of rain and then they sat someone else there who just walked up. Then the manager made excuses rather than owning mistake. They put a makeshift table together on the patio on an incline to try and make up for their mistake. Nothing was done to make it right. read more

A very friendly welcome and lovely server! So refreshing! The food was amazing and fresh. Very nice portions. We were celebrating a birthday and they brought a beautiful price of key lime pie with beautiful Happy Birthday written in raspberry sauce and chocolate. Very classy ! Would definitely go back! read more

Wife and I to Brevard for a long weekend to see the mountains and chase some of the 400+ waterfalls. Spent the first day walking around town and wandered into a back courtyard hiding this gem. I thought, "Square Root, square root of what?" Deliciousness? That would mean it was only partly delicious, but... It was awesome. Lisa had the Shrimp and grits. The grits were a fried cake crusted in almonds and mixed with brie. It came with 5 large shrimp cooked to perfection. I had the pimento cheese burger. Cooked med, super juicy and flavorful. The homemade sweet potato chips were a great side. Ask for the chipotle ranch to dip in. We were there for lunch but if you want to go for dinner I would definitely make reservations. They serve everything from burgers and chicken to really high-end meals. This is definitely a place I would go back read more

In Brevard for our wedding anniversary, after a day of hiking we stopped at square root for lunch. We sat on the patio with Taylor as our server, he was lovely, the food was delicious, and the outdoor patio was very relaxing. Our one issue: everything on the menu looked great it was hard to decide what to eat. Our solution: go back for dinner! *edit* we came back for dinner again the next night! At dinner we sat at the bar and Chris and Zora made the experience better then expected! They were both so welcoming. My husband got the lamb special and wasn't sure on the temp to order as we don't eat lamb often- Zora advised him on the house recommendation which was much appreciated! The atmosphere at the bar gives the feeling of fine dining in a neighborhood restaurant. The locals who sat near by us were also very welcoming as we chatted and were given advice on hiking trails in the area for the next day. I ended up having the hanger steak and my husband the trout. And that key lime pie- perfect ending to a perfect meal! read more

We enjoyed the most wonderful lunch experience at Square Root today! The food was creative, unique, exciting, and absolutely delicious! The staff was absolutely fantastic!John served us with passion and charisma! His love for the restaurant was so evident as he greeted us and served us so well! He recommended the Brussels Sprouts for an appetizer. They were perfection! My wife got the Hangar steak and I ordered the Peach Glazed Pork Flat Iron. The combination of flavors were thrilling and unforgettable! The dessert was the perfect finale. We ordered the coconut cake and loved every bite. Another highlight was our new friend, a local who eats there every day. His name is Thomas, and we all said he should be the next mayor of Brevard. Such a warm and friendly gentleman! The meal was so good we asked to meet the chef, and thankfully he came out. It was an honor to shake Chef Adam Wilson's hand and thank him for this memorable dining experience. Next time we are in Brevard, I guarantee you we will stop by the Square Root hoping for a repeat of today's lunch! Thank you to all! read more

Food and service are way way over the top always. A wonderful evening every time. Spices and flavors are always delicate.

Absolutely amazing little spot. Service was excellent and the food was delicious. We came on Tuesday so we shared a half price bottle of wine. We ordered the flat iron pork - the flavors of the collards, peaches, boiled peanuts, and sweet potato gnocchi - all mixed together was fabulous. We sat outside and it was lovely. Highly recommend. read more

We came for an early dinner and started with the Bravarian pretzel board, which arrives with a large chewy, salty pretzel and a board chock full of goodies including meats, cheeses, olives, and pickled okra. For my main I had the fig and grilled chicken salad, which was very tasty, with blue cheese crumbles, grape tomatoes, bacon pieces, spiced pecans and pumpkin seeds. It arrives in a large savory herb tortilla bowl. Their outdoor patio space is nice and relaxing in good weather. The inside dining area is more intimate and moody, with exposed brick and wood architectural elements. Pro Tip: Since they don't take reservations, try to go off-peak hours during busy thursday/friday/saturdays. read more

sted. Crispy zucchini sticks as my side and I was in heaven. Lily helped us settle the desert debate and recommended the limoncello cake with whipped mascarpone cheese icing. And if course, a glass of limoncello from the bar was a perfect pairing. We enjoyed our meal so much and were sitting there enjoying our dessert and watching a man write the dinner special on the chalkboard: chimichura grilled octopus with whipped potatoes and honey glazed carrots. What was I to do but order a dinner special to go!! Looking forward to having that tomorrow. Bravo team. Bravo!!! read more

We visited this place on recommendation and very much enjoyed the experience. On a Friday night there was a wait so we enjoyed a beverage at the bar. Was impressed that all staff was focused on serving customers. We had stepped into the bar for just a minute when a waitress asked if we needed anything. Busy night and a small place and she took are order and served us before we were seated. The food was outstanding in presentation and taste. We were about halfway through the salad when entrees arrived. Again excellent food and service all around. Must visit again. read more

Came here while I was on vacation about two years ago and I still think about it pretty often. It was some of the best food I had while in NC. I forget exactly what I ordered but it had Tuna and some sort of sweet sauce. Restaurant has a great atmosphere, a hole in the wall vibe. The Host's are very hospitable and making sure you are enjoying your time. read more

I've been coming here over 6 years and each time our dinner entrees are amazing and the menu always excites. this weekend was my first visit over lunch and the London Broil sandwhich was melt in your mouth fantastic! Anne-Marie, Kody, and Zora all took very tentive care and the entire staff was very helpful of my disability and medical scooter needed to walk and get around. The atmosphere is so enjoyable and calm and the location tucked in the ally gives you an off the beaten path vibe. I love this place highly recommend and will continue to come back every visit I'm in Brevard. read more

I have never had a bad meal here! The service and food are delightful. The space is equally pleasing.

Food was top shelf and presentation was excellent. Service was very attentive. Although there is always a wait, it's worth it!

Found the square root on Yelp while on a weekend getaway with my wife. we read the menu beforehand and had already picked out a few dishes before we arrived. We arrived and were seated promptly. Everything was going smoothly until.......... We waited for about 10 minutes before any of the served acknowledged us. Not sure if there was confusion but a server came over and asked if we had been attended to. He picked up our table and proceeded to take really good care of us for the rest of the evening. For our mains we ordered the Peach Glazed Pork Flat Iron and my wife had the Square Root Salad with Salmon. Both of the dishes were pretty amazing. I am not a big peach fan but it worked really well. Great combination of flavors and the pork was cooked to perfection. The salmon in my wife's salad was also cooked perfect. I would come back here when I am back in the area. If the wait for a server to co e to our table hadn't been so long, I would have given it 5 stars. I will and have recommended this restaurant to others. Please support this business. read more

Great spot for food & drinks in downtown Brevard. We were here for lunch on a Saturday. I had the "Day After Thanksgiving" sandwich w/fries and it really hit the spot. For dessert we shared a slice of coconut cake. It took about 15 min for them to bring out the cake, which was crazy (we almost tab out before it came). The cake was beautifully presented, but I noticed some of the icing was melted. After digging in, the outer layers of the cake were very warm with melted icing while the center of the cake was cold. Can you say "defrost that frozen cake in the microwave". The cake was still tasty, but to me, defrosting cake in a microwave should not ever happen in a restaurant that employees chefs (maybe in the occasional truckstop diner). Although, this was disappointing I'm only deducting one star because everything else was executed well and the place boasts a modern, yet comfortable vibe. read more

After hiking in the mountains we chose lunch at Square Root. The food was excellent & the service was excellent. We started with an app of tuna nachos. It was basically sushi on a tortilla chip. The flavors of the tuna & hoisin sauce & seaweed came together in a very satisfying way. My main dish was a cheesesteak made with London Broil. It was superb. The sandwich was loaded with meat & caramelized onions & tender lean meat slices & melted cheese. For a side I had pasta salad which was delicious. The coating on the pasta was a cross between thousand island dressing & cole slaw dressing. It worked well. Basically all the calories I burned hiking I replenished at lunch, lol. read more

Sadly, this trip proved frustrating. We traveled from Georgia to visit Brevard. We have 1 child with celiac's disease (age 6) and 1 with a dairy intolerance (age 8). We always bring food for them to accommodate. Unfortunately, after our meal where we spent good money ($64), we were told outside food can't be brought in. After explaining the why behind our a actions, the waitress persisted stating that they had plenty of options which 1. I didn't see based on the menu 2. Nor would I trust a new restaurant's cross contamination efforts in their fryers or on their grill enough to jeopardize the remainder of the trip. The service aspects of this restaurant seem to be its greatest opportunity for improvement. read more

While you're walking down the main street of Brevard we looked down an alley and there are some wonderful restaurants down there including the square root restaurant. It has a lovely outside patio we ate inside it's absolutely charming. As soon as you enter there's a large chalkboard on the wall and it has some of the new eats for the day and specials. It's a bit pricey but well worth it. We were there for lunch and it was absolutely delicious the service was also wonderful. They ran out of dessert which was a bummer at least the one we wanted lol. Give it a try Brevard is absolutely lovely and Main is a great street for shopping and eating on. read more
