Root 25 Taphouse and Kitchen

I visited Root 25 for lunch during a conference. I was looking forward to their lunch menu, only to learn that all they had was a buffet. The buffet was a "taco bar" except there was only one type of meat that wasn't labeled. When I asked what it was, I was told "taco meat" but "not beef". It was definitely beef, and it tasted adequate. There weren't a lot of options for toppings. It cost $23. Overall, I cannot recommend this place for lunch. The entire experience was pretty sub par.Now the bar at night was a great time. They made excellent drinks and had a pretty good beer selection. I'd love to add a couple stars for that, but I struggle with them calling themselves a tap house when they had NOTHING ON TAP. That's right. Their taps were ALL BROKEN. Again, we had good cocktails, and that's the only reason this review isn't 1 star.

Staying in the hotel, so I tried out this place for both lunch and dinner yesterday. For Lunch I had the Grilled Portobello Wrap, while tasty the chickpeas (hummus) definitely overpowered the other veggies so I forgot that it was even a portobello wrap. Still it was stuffed so much I had only ate one half. Fries were tasty.! The salad with salmon for dinner was tasty and since the salad had a vinaigrette I asked for a cup of Caesar dressing for my salmon, which definitely did the trick to add more flavor and taste to it.. the salad seemed to be more drizzled than dressed with the vinaigrette so if you're someone like men who likes dressing you may have to ask for more. I'm not a big pudding person but wanted something light so I gave the chefs special a try. This dessert was divine! I'm a strawberry girl so the vanilla pudding immersed in strawberries and topped with gram cracker crumbles and whipped cream! With a strawberry on top! Whew yummy. Presentation on 10 for the Dessert! In the evening this place is a great mix of lowkey yet with TVs around you can keep up with tv shows and games too. It saw a mix of couples dining for a date, people dining alone and working too.

Had the Caesar salad and while it was tasty, I did not like the presentation. I wish they would have cut up the lettuce.

After traveling all day came down to grab a quick bite. My server was Elaine, she was super nice and very helpful about the menu. I ended up ordering the burger. It was cooked perfectly. While eating I asked if they had pickles, she asked a gentleman named Drew (who I believe is a chef). He said they didn't have any on this floor but would go get some for me from another area. I told him I didn't want to put him out, he said it was no problem. He brought some the pickles and was super funny about it. The thoughtfulness of their service is very much appreciated.My burger and fries were delicious!

Shoutout to the new chef and staff at Root25, this review is for y'all. You guys really deserve a round of applause. We decided to dine in at the hotel restaurant after a long day of adventures. Didn't really know what to expect, I just knew I was starving and I needed some sustenance. Luckily we made it in time, the kitchen was preparing to close but the staff was kind enough to allow us to place our huge order. We ordered: 2 Double Smash Burgers with Tater Tots1 Chicken Tinga Tacos with Tater Tots1 order of Lemon-Agave Brussels SproutsIt was AMAZING! That Double Smash Burger mmm so good. With the prized pickled onions, the garlic mayo and the white cheddar cheese, this burger had the perfect combination of flavors. The brioche bun is so soft, it just makes you wanna keep taking bite after bite. I was eating my burger and already thinking of the next time I'd order it again. Have you ever eaten something so good you try to save some but can't? The tater tots were perfectly crisp. The Lemon-Agave Brussel Sprouts were surprisingly good as well. A hint of sweetness paired with the citrus really elevates your palate and pairs off nicely with the rest of the meal. You can actually pick Brussels sprouts or tater tots as your side and I'd say both work very well. The Chicken Tinga Tacos tasted similar to a shredded chicken enchilada. But it's the pickled onions that take it up a notch. Our server tried to tell us about those pickled onions and I'm so glad we listened. Cudos to the new chef. We loved the menu you prepared and perfected. I can tell the servers are very proud of the new menu which speaks volumes. Wishing 5 star reviews for you guys going forward.

Bar/restaurant in the Hyatt hotelFriendly staff great service, if you're stuck at the hotel without transport, great place to go and hang out

It's been two weeks since I actually visited Root 25, and I had to try hard to remember what I ate. With that said, it wasn't memorable, but I'm glad the DTC Hyatt Regency has a decently-priced restaurant that's open late. I met up with some friends attending a conference.I started at the bar, ordering a standard G&T. As more people joined the party, we migrated to one of the couches in the back. It wasn't a convenient spot for eating dinner, plus it was too loud to have a conversation, so our waiter relocated us to the atrium. Much better.Several people in our group had issues with their cocktails being too sweet, syrupy, or poorly mixed. I just stuck with beer. For dinner I had a bleu cheese burger which was not bad. The salted sweet potato steak fries were the highlight, perfectly cooked.Overall it's a solid hotel restaurant & bar. Not somewhere I'd go out of my way to visit but good for a late night meal or drink. Since I wasn't a hotel guest, paying for parking and walking across the whole property was kind of a pain, but the company was worth it.

Not my favorite I ordered the salmon mashed potatoes and broccoli the salmon in the broccolini we're both very hard and dry. My boyfriend had the Fried Chicken he said it was very Bland pretty much we both left majority of our food on the plates the manager came over and was very nice nice enough to take my salmon off the bill and did give us a free dessert but the service was great a waiter was awesome his name is Chris I remember that

I really like this little place. I practically live in this hotel when I come to town for work. I generally like to have a drink after work and occasionally I will order some food. Everything I have tried has been satisfactory and the ingredients seem to be high quality. The staff is pleasant and I know they work hard. Knocking off a star for price, everytime I order a drink I cringe a bit at the bill. I think I paid $9 for a Blue Moon last time I was there.

Staying at the hotel and the last 2 early evenings service hasn't been good. Once you get a drink they are well made. They could use some help behind the bar!
