The service and food was so good. I really enjoy this restaurant. My only complaint has to do with the reservation and seating process. I had a reservation for 830pm and still had to wait 40 min to be sat. There was an apology from the hostess, but never the manager. I'm not one to make a fuss, but facts are facts. Everything else was really quite good.
Great food and service. Fresh quality ingredients. Has neighborhood feel but kinda expensive and priced closer to fine dining in Manhattan or Brooklyn. Will be back to try all of their apps and drinks. Didn’t love that none of the food didn’t come out very temperature hot. Everything was mostly warm (even the corn bread and pasta dish). But overall it’s a good spot.
Very solid food and the staff is great . What I like best is they change the menu a lot and keep things fresh
Our first time here we went for brunch very good; fresh ingredients, interesting dishes. Great drinks.. alcoholic or not

Once again, this place is a home run. The Grass Fed Burger was delicious, desserts decadent and the staff outstanding!
Our server Eleanor was tremendous at her job, a superb professional, personable and genuinely a nice person. If I had a business, Eleanor would be someone that I would want on my team. She is a real star!
Our busboy Jose was also wonderful and a real gem as well.
I will continue to keep coming back for sure!

Another great dinner at Rustic Root in Woodbury. Delicious, delightful and creative - This place takes flavors to the next level. The best brussel spouts that I ever tasted. They are called Crispy Brussel Sprouts - made with honey, almonds, Greek yogurt, Tabasco, mint and sea salt. My wife loved her Califlower Tacos and Sticky Toffee Pudding, my dad enjoyed his Ponzu Glazed Ribs and my Bacon & Bleu Salad with Chicken was fantastic! Oh yeah, the Smoked Old Fashioned was the bomb!
BTW- Our server Jen was outstanding!
If you happen to be in Woodbury, eat here!
This is a great spot to eat with friends or family. The food is fresh, the place is clean, the service is fast and friendly and we had a great time. We ordered a lot of different things from the menu as you'll see in the pics and everything was delicious. Our server, Justin, was so accommodating and kind. We were very satisfied with the food, drinks, atmosphere and service and will definitely go back to try other dishes! The drink is the Pink Lady and I loved it!!!
AMAZING WEEKEND BRUNCH!
Such a great meal at rustic root with cute earthy aesthetics. Super family friendly as well - lots of kids and families.
We got the crispy chicken sandwich with regular fries, burger with truffle fries, lox flatbread, and harvest salad. My favorites were the chicken sandwich and lox flatbread - chicken was perfectly crispy and super moist, the lox was perfectly salty and smooth! The salad was disappointing because it was super overdressed. The apples were tart but the dressing was also very acidic so it was a double acidic dish which was a bit unpleasant. The burger on the other hand was great - very juicy. The truffle Parmesan fries were more parm than truffle - could not taste truffle - but had a great crunch to them. The regular fries were a bit not salted.
Overall great meal aside from the salad.
Ordered the Skillet Cornbread and Steak Frites. Both were delicious
Great food, service and atmosphere. The menu looked really good so I ordered two dishes...the beet salad and the butternut burrata toast. Both were delicious and I finished them off. The service was really pleasant too!I'd definitely return to try more of the menu options.
I love Rustic Root! The service is always great - the team is genuinely friendly and checks in to make sure you’re enjoying yourself. The farm to table dishes are always great and they have vegetarian friendly menu items, even desserts, which I was pleasantly surprised by! We had their conbread and beet salad for starters, and falafel tacos and grass beef burger with salt and vinegar fries. The fries were amazing -and their homemade ketchup is delicious!!! One of our favorite spots because it’s always a great experience. I will say that this last visit, the beets had way too much sea salt in it - the feta was enough to offset the sweet of the beets. We come here because we love the earthiness of the food without all the salt and sugar a lot of other restaurants add.
