Restaurant review: Roots Steakhouse in Ridgewood

THE RECORD
No Ridgewood restaurant screams luxury like the six-month-old Roots Steakhouse.
First, a valet parked my car, a relief on a busy Saturday night. A hostess escorted me into the clubby dining room, which featured dark wood paneling, a stunning engraved ceiling and charming prints of vintage fashions. All around me, well-dressed customers dined on gleaming seafood platters, brawny steaks and towering desserts.
And once my meal began, it was clear that Roots has much to offer, including some excellent red meat and a first-class crabcake. But while Roots has some steaks that are prime and some steaks that are dry-aged, it offers none that are both, which may turn off many steak purists.

huh
They need to improve service which is
very amateurish.
Steak is Good.
Service sucks.
Place is awsome…….
The space is gorgeous. Really great job.
I am hopeful that they will offer their lunch menu or some other pared down menu of lounge food for the front bar area. I would love to go in for a martini, oysters and a steak sandwich or burger. The total tab might be a little lower but the table will turn faster and I would go in more often.
I was also disappointed to see the oysters are served by the 1/2 dozen/dozen. Lots of places have moved to $2 an oyster which lets you try some different kinds of oysters.
