A very unusual menu but all the food was delicious. Friendly staff and good service but not all the food arrived at the same time. This may have been deliberate.

Root Restaurant is truly a standout in the dining scene, offering a culinary journey that masterfully balances fresh, seasonal ingredients with innovative small plates catering to all dietary preferences. Every dish is an artful creation, bursting with flavor and imagination. While some may find the prices on the higher side, the quality and creativity make the experience well worth it. What sets Root apart even further is the exceptional service. We were lucky to be looked after by the delightful trio of Tilly, Cissy, and Kirsty, who made our evening truly unforgettable. Tilly’s youthful charm and attentive care, Cissy’s insightful recommendations, and Kirsty’s warm hospitality created an atmosphere of genuine comfort amidst the restaurant’s stylish coolness. Each of them went above and beyond to ensure we had the best experience, making us feel valued and welcomed from start to finish. Even when the restaurant was bustling, the atmosphere remained inviting, and the service never faltered. The attention to detail and personalized approach made us feel like the only guests in the room. If you’re looking for a place where exceptional food meets equally exceptional service, Root Restaurant is it. Special thanks to Tilly, Cissy, and Kirsty for making our dining experience so wonderful – we can’t wait to return! This version highlights both the restaurant’s strengths and the personal touch from the staff! Let me know if you’d like further adjustments.

Terrible... Terribly lovely! 🙌🏻 Hah! That got you didn't it! 😄 One good turn does another aon here's my review: Most ppl who dine here appeared to be with others.. I showed up and was let down by a no-show date.. but the staff here were really friendly, and slick with it 👍🏻 It felt like a well-controlled environment and that transferred well to me as a customer. Staff: I'm grateful for the A1 professional manner. Casual and friendly. You're in good hands here. Food: I chose the house bread + oil, plus the grilled potatoes. You won't be disappointed with the flavour and you get stacks of bread as well so if you chose a smaller plate like I did with the potato, you'll be fine. I can't away forgetting about the date as the food was top notch. Thanks chef(s)! Thanks all! Would def return. Would def recommend. 👍🏻

This place is wonderful. We’re pescatarian and rarely do we get to go to a restaurant where we can eat almost the whole menu - we couldn’t make our minds up as everything sounded delicious. We thoroughly enjoyed everything we did have, but the cheese puffs snacks were incredible! The restaurant itself is nice: pared down, modern decor and tables not too close together. Staff were lovely too. Can see how this place has such a high rating.

As vegetarians, the restaurant was very attractive to us both. The ambience and service is extremely good and the small plate menu also appealed. We ordered six dishes between us together with a good bottle of Tempranillo. The first dish to arrive was the cheese puffs which were delicious, as was the charred hispi cabbage however others lacked depth of flavour and seasoning, especially the Cornish potatoes and fusilli. The tempura vegetables had a great texture and the fried slice of lemon was inspired but too much of the food was simply bland. With small plates, one needs differing, punchy flavours; some spicy, some salty, some sweet, some rich. I'm afraid that too many were off the mark. One dish we ordered wasn't delivered.

The cheese puffs with chilli jam were very moreish, so glad we ordered this 'snack' to go with the small plates. The other standout highlight was the lamb ragu pasta- did not expect the lamb to be outshone by the best cooked pasta I've ever had. The fried potatoes are like patatas bravas which were a bit heavy and didn't really go with the more delicate other small plate options- our bad choice. We were fine with four plates and one snack, between two but we did have dessert elsewhere.

Wonderful lunch. Great food, great service. We chose the “tapas” option and ordered 5 small plates between us was adequate, although we did kick off with the home made bread, which was superb. Finished off with the almond olive oil cake with cashew custard - a taste sensation. As someone famous once said, “I’ll be back”

Having visited Root Wells twice now it has solidified itself, in my opinion, as one of the best restaurants in Somerset 🙌🏻 Despite the small plates, each dish proved itself to be a little shining star cleverly designed by Root to include flavours that compliment each other. Although the restaurant itself is extremely modern, the service and atmosphere certainly didn't feel intimidating. Our server was beaming with smiles and laughter, and advised that the menu changes practically daily with the produce that is on offer. Each visit has been 10/10, I would highly recommend a visit in such a great location in the centre of Wells. I'll certainly be visiting again.

Snacks and Plates makes a nice change from the usual restaurant fare, Root was busy and buzzy, people of all ages, great service and interesting food. We had the house bread (which was a bit spongy), cured meats, tempura veg, lovely burrata with honey and peach, beetroot with grapes apple and nuts, and fried potatoes with chilli yoghurt and parsley. We washed it all down with South African palomino and finished with shared chocolate mousse and rum baba. £110 including gratuity. Really enjoyable.

Absolutely stunning, inventive food. Each dish was meticulously prepared so it looked beautiful and was full of flavour. Having been to Ottolenghi's restaurants in London, I would say that Root is as good as, if not better than those! They really make the most of the ingredients and and elevate humble vegetables to the next level. Also, the staff were fantastic and all in all we loved our meal and would definitely come again when next in Wells. Highly recommended.

The food was absolutely delicious! Couldn't fault it. Service was a little lacking. The waitress didn't ask if we wanted to order any drinks at all and just generally felt a little forgotten sitting in the corner. The atmosphere was also a little less intimate.

Just okay is our rating, very heavy flavours and lots of fried food, not a lot to counter balance. Price point was high compared to other restaurants recently (we’ve been travelling for 5 months in Europe and UK). Our waiting staff person suggested we have two of the same dishes for a starter - way too much and it was a bit down hill from there. I will say, the oysters were outstanding!

We visited Root on Friday evening for a birthday meal and had a really lovely evening. The service was genuine and wonderful, the food was imaginative and totally delicious (and fairly priced)! I was well catered for with a diary intolerance and it was refreshing for this to be a totally breezy experience and not an inconvenience. I was given a different menu card with possible adjustments on for the dishes, which mostly consisted of having the sauce served separately, but it was wonderful to still be able to eat most of the same dishes as my friends, and be involved with the sharing plate style of eating. Rather than feeling left out, and this was very much appreciated :) The colourful veggies really are the stars of the show, would totally recommend eating here for something different and will definitely be back! Thanks again!

I could eat here every night (and I have friends who spent a week in Wells and did just that!). Instead I bought the cookbook, though it does not come with the lovely hospitality of being in the restaurant. There are so many delicous dishes and while the menu is very vegetable-forward (very fresh, fantastic flavour combinations) the meat and fish are both cooked to perfection. I've eaten here several times with various age groups and both for fun and for business and the experience has been wonderful every time.

Root exudes warmth, thoughtfulness and style. I have a fairly extensive list of dietary requirements at the moment which I’d emailed about at the time of booking; our host remembered this immediately when I gave my name on arrival and made me feel as if it was no trouble at all. I’m heavily pregnant and was offered a soft seat on account of this, and we were talked carefully through the menu and told how most of the dishes could be carefully adapted for me (ingredients replaced with thoughtful alternatives rather than removed as most restaurants do). All of the dishes we ordered were outstanding and tasted fresh and interesting; at one point we saw one of the chefs go out to some planters behind the restaurant to take fresh herb cuttings! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Root: you will find the highest quality of food and experience a very warm welcome. If we lived locally we would certainly be regulars!

Had a lovely time at root the food was all incredible , each dish had lovely flavours and we ended up ordering loads to try as much as possible ! We booked early for 1730, had a really nice table and wasn’t very busy at all, really cool music playing and a relaxed vibe , it started filling up as the night went in but still felt chilled. Service was spot on and the waitresses really friendly . Loved that it was veggie based but there’s still options for fish and meat if you fancy it . We particularly liked the fresh oysters , the courgette and butter bean dish and the pickled beetroot dish , also the cocktails are incredible ! Will come back with mum and dad to try the lunch menu !

What an amazing little place with such a great vibe. I was there for a birthday meal and dressed up a little bit but I would’ve been equally comfortable in jeans. It has a great relaxed atmosphere but with a tasty upmarket menu. Tasty actually doesn’t really describe how exquisite the food was. I had a snack plate, two small plates and a dessert and as much as I would’ve liked to have tried more I was just too full. The service from Billy was friendly, relaxed and attentive and I appreciated the birthday acknowledgment. Great music playlist too that was audible but not too loud. All in all a great end to my day.

This restaurant is listed in the Michelin guide, but I’m baffled as to how it earned that distinction. The service was abysmal; our table was left extremely dirty, waited 20 minutes to get a drink order. The dishes were overly oily, chicken was undercooked and pink in the middle and the menu, while basic, was overpriced. We visited for lunch and to our disappointment, dessert options were unavailable.” Not worth the visit

Stunning location, backing onto the greens of the cathedral. The restaurant itself has a very warm, inviting atmosphere and the food is next level. There is food for everyone to love! A must try is the celeriac dish.

Such a wonderfully welcoming and relaxed restaurant with the most amazing food right in the heart of England’s tiniest city. We went for a family New Years Eve meal and the service and food was absolutely spot on. We will definitely return. Highly recommended!
