When we called we heard a voicemail message saying only that the restaurant was closed. We couldn’t find any further information on their website. We hope they are OK and look forward to the possibility of a future visit.

Split a salad, bread was outstanding, and plenty of food even without appetizers. Farm-sourced, very tasty. Save room for dessert! The chocolate pot de creme with bourbon whipped cream was to die for, and big enough to split. Go!

Wild Roots is a labor of love and worthy of support of quality cuisine with easy access along the I-89 corridor. Give them a try.

The cheeses were superb, the highlight of the night. The signature lamb dish was tough and grizzly. The only discernible flavor in the rabbit dish was the yummy butter. Service was inattentive. While they are committed to best quality local ingredients, they are missing the mark on actually cooking the dishes. Disappointing evening.

                                                                                                                                Is this helpful?
