"This was a wonderful find! We were there for Sunday Brunch. Servers are just wonderful, telling us "Just describe your perfect breakfast, and we'll make that"...and it was TRUE. The place is also adorable and quirky. Great place for an intimate breakfast or lunch date. The wait for our food after ordering was a little long, but the food was as promised and delicious. We'll definitely be back again and again."

"My husband had the french toast and an order of biscuits and gravy, I had an omelet with breakfast potatoes.. everything was delicious. The time and attention they put into making sure they were serving the best from scratch food felt like a love letter to the community. First time going there and we'll be back for a another hearty homemade relaxing brunch "

"Small eatery with a warm rustic atmosphere where you can find grandma's flavors in every plate. If you are in a hurry this is not your place. Every order is made when ordered with care and precision from the chef. I ordered a breakfast plate. It took about 10-15 minutes to come out but it was worth the wait. The eggs were cooked to perfection. The proteins were full of flavor and the fruits gave the plate a pop of color to feast the eyes. $20 dollars for a breakfast pricey??? A little bit...but worth every penny!"

"We were in the area for a wedding and stumbled upon The Grafted Root Eatery, and wow, one of the best breakfasts I've had in a long time! Everything was made from scratch and you can taste the quality. The flavors were absolutely outstanding. Service was just as great! Nicole and Mary were so sweet, bubbly, and outgoing. They answered all our menu questions, and made us feel so welcome. We had the plum mimosa, Caprese eggs Benedict with bacon, and the blueberry French toast special. Every bite was perfection. Highly recommend this place! I'd make the trip back to the area just to eat here again. "

"Small but cute. I don't like cramped restaurants, if I had been alone I may have just looked inside and left. The sign on the establishment says it's a slow food restaurant, there is no lie there. I assume the sourcing of the food is why the meals are pricier than your average coney or breakfast place. The servers were very polite but I didn't get a water with my orange juice and I made the mistake of looking closely at the games on our table. Almost asked the server to take them away. Wooden tic tac toe and that golf T peg game, both gross and in need of a cleaning and possibly fresh paint. I just kept staring at the dirt and thinking about all the winter time germs living on them... The food was ok, some of my potatoes and onions were more burned than roasted/caramelized."
