Root Southern Table absolutely exceeded expectations. From the moment we sat down, the service was phenomenal — our server was attentive and knowledgeable.
The food was outstanding across the board. The cornbread deserves its own spotlight — hands down the best I’ve ever had, perfectly moist with incredible flavor. The short rib was rich, tender, and cooked to perfection, while the scallops were beautifully seared and balanced. We finished with the orange cake, which was light, flavorful, and the perfect ending to an amazing meal. I would recommend Root looking for some great southern food.

I had an amazing experience at Roots Southern Table. From the moment I walked in, the staff was welcoming, attentive, and made me feel right at home. The food was absolutely delicious, full of flavor, and cooked to perfection. Every bite was worth it. The music playlist was a whole vibe and really added to the atmosphere. This is definitely a 10 out of 10 restaurant. I highly recommend stopping by if you are in the area. On my next trip to Dallas, I will absolutely be back again soon.

Nothing beats homemade soul food! Every bite tasted like it was made with love and tradition. The fried chicken was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, perfectly seasoned. The mac and cheese was creamy and rich, and the collard greens were tender with that slow-cooked, savory flavor that just hits right. Don’t forget the cornbread — warm, soft, and slightly sweet.

Came in on Sunday for date night and from the first moment it was clear this restaurant operates with intention. We were promptly acknowledged and seated, setting the tone for an experience that felt thoughtful rather than rushed.
I am gluten free, and what stood out immediately was that this was not treated as a limitation. The options were abundant, clearly considered and genuinely delicious. Nothing felt compromised or secondary, which is rare and deeply appreciated.
Sarah, our server, welcomed us with genuine warmth and guided us through the menu with confidence, offering thoughtful substitution recommendations that reflected both care and deep knowledge of the kitchen. We began with the deviled eggs, a deceptively simple dish executed with precision and balance. For mains, the wagyu and short rib were exceptional. Rich, layered flavors, beautifully composed and deeply satisfying without being heavy.
Dessert was the perfect close. House-made sorbet and gelato that felt clean, vibrant and intentional, not an afterthought but a final, polished note.
This is a restaurant where food, service and ambiance move in harmony. Every detail feels curated for a full, embodied dining experience. Top-tier hospitality, confident cooking and an atmosphere that invites you to linger. A true gem and an easy, enthusiastic recommendation.

I cannot say enough about our experience.
First, the service and atmosphere were both great. Our server Mary was 10/10, but I appreciated how this establishment operated like a well-oiled machine, multiple servers taking dirty dishes and providing refills even though we weren’t their table, everyone helped and the manager was also fantastic and was by multiple times to ensure we were satisfied.
Second, the food- the main reason you come to roots. It was all amazing. We ordered way too much, and took home not near as much as I thought because I could not stop eating!
We ordered the jumbo, cornbread, and deviled eggs to start, fried chicken, collards, and crawfish rice as our entree with German choc cake for desert, all of it was amazing and I will recommend this restaurant to everyone and continue coming. We drove from Mansfield after eating Radici in GP and saw Tiffany work first hand, we are impressed all the way around. 10000/10

Cool southern food restaurant. I went for my ladies sisters bday and they did a good job. We got a bunch of things to share and it was quite a good meal. The sweet potatoes were quite good, I think they could have been a little crisper but they were very good. The garlic herb butter made them super fragrant and it was probably my favorite thing. The chicken was also great, especially the thigh. The breast was kinda dry once you get past the crispy batter, but otherwise it was great. Im not a greens fan so I didn’t like them. The corn was was exactly what you would expect. Unique edition was the strawberry compote on the side. The Cajun dishes we got were good but average to me. I’ve lived in Louisiana so im kinda spoiled when it comes to Cajun food but it definitely wasn’t bad. All around a good experience, the staff was nice and attentive. Also a cool atmosphere with a all glass outdoor seating area. If i get a chance to visit again I would get the ox tail because it sounded good.

Great overall experience. I selected the sunroom as I hoped it would be a better spot for my book club to be able to talk while we dined and caught up with each other. I was glad as it was indeed a little quieter in there. Our server Trey was great. He actually read my reservation comments which so rarely happens. We are a pretty happy bunch who loves cocktails and family style dining. We ordered: deviled eggs, the fruit salad carpaccio, cornbread, family style fried chicken, the scallops and ravioli, the short rib, and the redfish. No a single bad thing. The seafood was cooked perfectly too! It’s honestly such a relief as I hate dry, rubbery seafood. The scallops and ravioli particularly stood out. Serious perfection. The short rib was fork tender. And the duck fat fried chicken even had the “I don’t really care for fried chicken” ladies diving in. We ordered the passion fruit mousse and the orange cake. Both were great, but the passion fruit mousse is what brings people back again. It should win awards. Highly recommend Roots. And not just because it’s a former Top Chef contestant’s restaurant. Although I confessed, I already knew of and loved Miss Tiffany Derry.

I had a great first time experience – our waiter Sophia B was very patient and kind, the manager Paul was attentive and knowledgeable, the food was finger licking good, and the cocktails were perfection. It was just an all around incredible experience. Get the cornbread FOR SURE. We loved everything – the short ribs, the red fish, the tamrine (probably not spelled correctly) salad. Prices are worth it and reasonable.

I wanted to eat somewhere special for my friend’s birthday and Roots didn’t disappoint. I loved the ambiance and intimacy the restaurant had. Since we went on a Sunday evening there were musicians playing jazz but we could still hold conversation. The food was great and flavorful. The portions were so big that of course we had to take food home but all in all everything was great. It is pricey but I believe worth it.

We have a short list of “will come back multiple times”, but this one was just added. First, if you could encapsulate my grandmother in a restaurant, this is it (except she would have judged me getting wine instead of sweet tea). The service was exceptional. Super attentive and friendly staff. Wine list was top notch. And the food… we started with the cornbread. I’ve had cornbread so many times that I really didn’t know how you could knock it out of the park with this one, but they did! We also split the peach salad which was a great, fresh Texas way to start the meal. My husband and I got two meals and split them both – I got the scallops which were melt in your mouth perfection. He got the Texas red fish which sat on this crawfish dirty rice that really transported you to that Texas/Louisiana border. Dessert was an orange cake (really delicious), but the star was surprisingly the German chocolate cake. Rich, but not too rich. Moist. Absolutely delicious. If they had peach cobbler on the menu, it would have been perfect. On the atmosphere, it was upbeat… it’s on the louder side and the tables are somewhat close (but not too close)… so depends on your likes but we were still able to carry on a conversation and hear one another just fine. Great experience. Can’t wait for our next visit.
