“ Loved the whole experience. Husband and I had our 3rd date night since our new baby arrived! I didn’t get a chance to take a picture of the steak. It looked so good and I was too hungry. ”
“ Loved the experience, the wine cards are very creative. I’ve never seen that and I think everyone should do them. ”
“ Roots has amazing cocktails & food. Service has always been stellar and consistent. The ambiance is comforting and modern—dim lighting, soft music, and romantic atmosphere. Rich was our first & favorite server. Roots is hands down one of the best places to have a romantic dinner in Camas. The booth seating is cozy. Restrooms are clean & well maintained. Parking is always plenty. I'll post more pics as we continue to stop by... especially for the seasonal menu items. ”
“ We always have a fantastic meal here. The staff is very friendly and food comes out quick. Always excited to try something new on their menu. The coffee is absolutely out of this world as well. They brew a stellar cup! ”
“ I came here for the first time with my dad tonight as a very belated birthday & Father’s Day for him (his suggestion since he loves it here) and WOW, was I impressed. The service was amazing and the food & drinks were FANTASTIC. I ordered the 12oz ribeye with an Oregon Strawberry (drink) and my dad got the Dungeness crab and avocado with a side of prawns with a Tito’s and soda. I can’t remember the last time I’ve had such a flavorful, perfectly cooked, and tender steak. The veggies accompanying it were cooked and seasoned to perfection as well. I fully cleaned my plate, which I was not expecting to do with that much food. I will absolutely be returning and intend to tell all of my friends because I haven’t found a spot anywhere near here with such good steak until tonight! ”
“ We had plans at another place but they were fully booked, so we ended up coming here on the recommendation of a friend. We were very pleasantly surprised. Everything was phenomenal, and the service was excellent. We'll definitely be coming back. One thing, I wish I'd asked the price of the special. I was shocked to see the rack of lamb was 75. It was worth it to be sure, the best I've ever had, but a surprise nonetheless. ”
“ We have been going to Roots at least once a week for most of our 20 years in Camas (except the dark dismal year of the pandemic). It’s hands down our favorite place to relax, enjoy cocktails, wine (maybe both), great atmosphere, wonderful service, and ALWAYS some of the best food around. From Dungeness crab & avocado salad with a vermouth vinaigrette I have tried for 20 years to recreate, to the always perfect pan seared halibut, melt in your mouth buttery short ribs, and gorgeous tender juicy filet with housemade Worcestershire sauce, we keep coming back for more and are never less than blown away. We have come to savor the “Brad Root Bite”, taking a bit of each element served, meat, veg, sauce, starch, all on the fork at once, to enjoy the magical alchemy Roots has mastered in its compositions. And if given the chance, we NEVER pass on a small plate creation offered by young Chef Nate (the Great). His offerings are unique, fun and out of this world flavorful. Desserts, wines, wonderful cocktails, yes. All of it. Special occasions, yes. This is the one place our son wanted to come celebrate his 21st birthday, with good friends and great food. We cant recommend Roots enough. ”
“ Great service and the food was awesome! A nice Thursday-nite vibe... Not loud or packed. ”
